but were they getting off the waitlist?

 

[SwimmingInTheAir]

As far as I saw, they were accepted, not waitlisted.

 

[mcama]

not everyone who got in will be going, there were 20 deferrals.

waitlist should be interesting. Thanks covid for claiming 20 spots

To anyone who received a scholarship: do you know if it’s for 2 years or 3 years? I forgot to ask!

In the interview they told you how many deferrals they have?

 

[Bergmanbaby]

I saw it on last year’s thread

 

[Your Actual Dad]

is there any chance to be waitlisted w/o an interview?

Yes. Tons of waitlisted people got in last year because of all the covid deferrals.

I think they will not allow defer this year，so the spots will still limited.

 

[Bergmanbaby]

Yes. Tons of waitlisted people got in last year because of all the covid deferrals.

Do you know how many people deferred and are accepting this year?

 

[Your Actual Dad]

Do you know how many people deferred and are accepting this year?

I have no idea, sorry. I'd assume most?

 

[SwimmingInTheAir]

I think if no one kept getting calls in this thread, it's probably the end of the story, right?

 

[Nathalie Granger]

Yeah, officialy losing hope.

[Isaac Z]

Hi guys, new here. I was wondering if not being able to take the call effects their decision. I've been traveling abroad and don't always have my US phone around me, I'm super anxious now because everyone is getting calls now and I'm in total darkness
