Literally stuff that we already know. No tentative dates for waitlist decisions. Pointless session imo

They said that they’ve been in the business for years and you’re only in the waitlist even now because they know there’s more than enough time for visas. They also said that at some point it’ll be too late to get the visa process done so that would be when they take you off the waitlist (which I guess meant we’ll be rejected at that point?!)

and they won’t reject anyone on waitlist until 1st May. But prior to that they might give admits

that’s all

Besides USA, I have admits from UK and Europe. I have to pay the deposit by April 15th as my deadline is approaching. If I mention these offers in my waitlist documents, will that affect my chances? Will that not put a question on my seriousness to join their program? Should I refrain from doing this?

I am a round 2 admit. The results were supposed to be out on 15th March and I also had another offer whose deadline was 4 days away. So I asked rice to release my decision early and also stated that I have an admit from another school, but mentioned that i am more inclined towards joining rice. My decision came on 18th April and got the admit. So i don’t think mentioning other school’s admit will have negative affect on your decision.

The admit is from a uni in UK. That is the issue I have.

Thank you so much! Do you know whether they send out all invites at the same time or in batches?

Sry, but I have no idea in that regards.

Gave my Kira assessment yesterday. Received an invite for community assesment today (I believe it’s the personal interview). Is my understanding correct?
