When I started trying 15 minutes ago the Coalition site just said “Loading Colleges…” with a circle going round and round and round… and then it brought me to the window that said “view submission” without the decision letter link…and now finally after 15 minutes of waiting it showed the window with the decision letter!!!
I just now tried going back to look at the letter again but it’s gone and the website is down! At least I cut and pasted the important paragraph below.
