Still haven't heard yet?

[4success]

I still haven't heard from many schools I applied to (ex. cornell etc), and was wondering if that basically means you won't get an interview, or if I should keep waiting and such. I know many of the decisions are given out in March, and so does that mean if I dont' get an invite in Jan/early Feb, basically, i'm at the bottom of the applicant pile? And what does it mean when they say they have reviewed your application, but it's on hold... anyone in the same situation or has everyone basically heard back from most places they applied to?

Thanks!

If you were at the bottom you would have been rejected already. Worst case you can expect a rejection by March. I'm still waiting to hear from two schools.

there are several schools I haven't heard from and the rejections are slowly trickling in.

though I should also say that last time I applied I didn't get an interview invitation until January, and at least one person that interviewed with me that day (in February) was accepted and is now a MS2. so even late interviews are good, but I think it's time to consider alternate plans and reapplications.

any post that includes the words "the last time i applied" cannot be filled with happy news.

there are a zillion stories about "someone" on SDN. unless the someone is YOU, it's meaningless to me.
