Are people seeing the rejections in their portals before they get the emails?

before this cycle began, if you asked me to place a bet on a single school that would send me an II, I would have said BU. Yet here I am, today, massacred alongside many other worthy comrades. I wish I could have some insight into how or why they make such decisions, but I am doing my best to process and let it float away. There are many other schools to come 🙃

You have very high stats babe. I wouldn't take it too personally💗 I'm sure you loved the school but they also might assume you could get somewhere better and believed you wouldn't go there. A lot of strong applicants got rejected today so I would take that as a compliment (although it may not feel like one right now). Much more is coming your way.

PSA: to those who got an R, you can request feedback on your application towards the latter half of the cycle (I did this last year when I applied and got rejected). The Dean of admissions re-read mine and let me know I didn't have any fatal flaws in my application but that I simply just wasn't picked out of the batch for that cycle. They don't get super specific but it gave me piece of mind to know my app wasn't horrible. (I'm a reapplicant bc I applied to most of my schools in Nov/Dec lol and to BU around their deadline).

Did people who got the R today also receive the delayed review email? I know it prob doesn't mean anything but was curious

yeah

Wdym delayed review?

How many waves of rejections were there?

no

did you just email them and ask? what was the process like?
