Any updates? Applied 7/18 and submitted supplemental fee on 7/20. Status: required additional info

I applied 7/6 and got an email saying my application was complete 7/19 and that it's under review, which takes 6-8 weeks. AADSAS status says "received/application complete"

did your status change to under review right after your app was verified? My app is verified but decision status still says none
 
is anyone status still showing up as none? I submitted my verified app 7/20. should I be worried?

It just talks about how you need to submit the fee for them to review the application. It also says that if you already paid it sent them the confirmation number.

It's going to be virtual. They're experimenting with the Kira Talent format to conduct interviews this year. They will also invite interviewees to a campus tour, but whether you choose to go or not will not impact your chance of acceptance.

Yeah, I assume they would have to actually discuss the school, education, cost, etc in some format other than just a Kira Talent, haha.

Just affirming KT is very friendly to provide this information prior to your actual interview. You probably will get links and insights before you begin interviewing. But pay attention to the questions too. Honestly you should be able to get a lot of information from their website and SM.

You think it’s bad?

I think it's good! That means the school is reviewing your application🙂 I had one school go from "Received/Under Review" to "Received/Application Complete" and thought that was bad. However, there are some students who have received invitation invites when their application status stated "Received/Application Complete," so they say not to stress too much on what is shown on AADSAS.

Yeah that makes sense, thanks for the clarification. Do you know when the next wave of invites coming out? Feel like haven’t seen much about new invites on SDN
 
I got rejected too😭 my stats are 3.75 gpa and 24 AA , 24 TS. I had research experience and I am in state. This was one of my dream schools aghhh… getting denied this early does feel discouraged😢😢

Are you IS or OOS? I think they’re looking for more than just stats. I am IS and have 3.98 GPA. 26AA/28TS/30PAT and got straight rejection in

I think they accidentally sent out rejections instead of interview invitations LOL. Because with all these stats I’m seeing I doubt they meant to reject. I have a 3.98 GPA and 24 AA, 27 TS AND 26 PAT and got rejected today too.

I also got rejected: 25AA, 3.99 oGPA. I did research for 2 years as well. I think being OOS didn't help, haha.
 
For those who got rejected, was your application listed as "Received/Under Review," prior to receiving your rejection?
