URM Consortium Applicant, 3 years of IB experience 4.0 GPA 775 GMAT focus.
I will continue to delude myself into believing that "mid-November" hasn't come until the second to last second in the month. However objectively I could see Mid-November most likely to be last Friday, potentially this Friday. I think it would be healthier to move on than impulsively and regularly check my email and refresh livewire. Can someone confirm that we are past "Mid-November"?
No scholarship.
Received update email around 13:00 NY Time.
Will be 3.5 YoE by matriculation
