The housing email today said they sent out ~100 new applications.
Given that AECOM had like a 53% yield in 2019, there should be another ~100 acceptances from now until the start of classes. Don't lose hope!

[davist090]

[davist090]

A this morning!
Interview March 15
"Rolling Admissions" April 5
"Rolling Admissions Follow-up" May 3

And I had sent a Letter of Intent after the first "Rolling Admissions" email

Congrats everyone on your acceptances! What was the deadline you were given to respond?

 

[RMA1]

Congrats everyone on your acceptances! What was the deadline you were given to respond?

Congrats everyone on your acceptances! What was the deadline you were given to respond?

Based on Einstein’s website, acceptances given after April 30th, have 5 business days to respond. If someone could confirm this, that’d be great!

 

[davist090]

Congrats everyone on your acceptances! What was the deadline you were given to respond?

Mine says Monday May 24

I am not sure if it is business days; it might just be days. My acceptance was this morning and it says I have "5 days from now" and it's due Monday May 24

 

[CorgiLoaf]

Has anyone else gotten a scholarship offer?
I only received an email saying they'll notify me by May 24th if I qualify for one.

April Interview -> “Rolling Admissions” -> “Still Interested” -> A this morning

When in April did you interview?

what do new housing applications mean? does that mean 100 people have planned to enroll so far?

Hey everyone. I know that this has been clarified a million times, but I just wanted to make sure for my neurotic brain. I just got a rolling admissions email - is this their version of the high priority waitlist? Just confused because nowhere in the rolling admissions email does it say the word waitlist but on the website, the options are to accept/decline your option on the waitlist.

Also, for any people who got off rolling admissions, what was the time period between Dean Kerrigan's "still interested" emails and your rolling admissions? Also, did you send a LOI?

 

[VH18]

Rolling admissions (HPWL) email a short while ago!

Early April interview, IS status. I was given until May 28 to respond (so perhaps a wave of A’s will occur in early June)

Did you get an April or May Update email before this?

I did not

 

[throwaway2020202112345]

Did anyone get a still interested email yesterday?

 

[mangotrees]

so how many people here are still waiting for an initial decision (received march/april/may update or like no correspondence)

 

[chzsux]

Interview 4/20, got rolling admissions yesterday

 

[tin7710]

Interviewed 4/16, haven’t had any correspondence

 

[Livin_Like_Larry]

I received the May update, but I'm still confused if the updates are a good or bad indication of receiving an acceptance

 

[CoolRanchDoritos]

I got an email about a background check yesterday when the report was released two months ago. Do I have to send it specifically to Einstein? It doesn’t look like an option...

 

[mangotrees]

I received the May update, but I'm still confused if the updates are a good or bad indication of receiving an acceptance

i feel like at this point theyre bad cause they're only accepting off HPWL it looks like :/ seeing how many of us are there i have very low hopes lol

 

[Livin_Like_Larry]

True, I had low hopes for Einstein to begin with just due to my stats and OOS status. But, I just don't know where the ambiguous update emails fit in the hierarchy of A > HPLW > WL > R.

Yes, as far as we can tell, the Rolling Admissions email is the unofficial HPWL, and has different language than the regular WL email which specifically states waitlist in the email.

I got the HPWL email at the beginning of May and sent a LOI in response.

How long are people Typically making their LOIs? I don’t have any updates since my last letter so trying to gauge.

yay! did you receive a may update before that?

No

A few paragraphs should suffice, a page at most; I focused on specific reasons for why I wanted to go to Einstein as I also did not have substantial updates to offer

I was in the same situation, it should go through in a few days. If you're nervous, email Einstein to give them a heads up what's going on

Just got the “still interested” email a few minutes ago!

Has anybody on the regular WL heard anything?

 

[chzsux]

Yes!

Sorry, would you be willing to say when you had your interview, HPWL notification, etc.?
