On the website it says that all applicants will be notified by October 31st.
Still have not been notified. Anyone else in the same boat?
Me either. When is the notification deadline?
(edit: just saw it’s on a rolling basis by the end of October. since mine was submitted an hour before the deadline, I don’t expect it til the very end. here goes!)
@SushiMonster just curious where you saw notification was on a rolling basis? I know the applications were accepted on a rolling basis, but don’t see that notifications are.
I’m super nervous
@positivepower I don’t know where it indicates that on the website, but when my friends told me they got their decision and I didn’t, I panicked and sent an email to Ms. Lucas and she said they’re sending out decisions as they come to them. So I guess that implies it’s rolling.
Do you think they’re just notifying those who haven’t received it as they go and are waiting till October 31 to notify the entire pool of finalists? Or do you think people are getting both possible decisions as time goes on? Because I submitted mine before a friend who got her rejection email; yet, I have not received a decision. I don’t know if this is a good or bad thing.
@2019sh I think they just take till Oct. 31
@Porcupine123 when did your friends hear about their decisions, and were they all non-finalist? Good luck!
@positivepower around Oct. 18th and yes all non-finalists
@porcupine123 did your friends who weren’t finalists get a call or an email?
@positivepower @2019sh they all received an email. I believe that finalists receive a call (this is based on what people from previous years claimed when they became finalists); however, I would have no way of knowing whether or not they intend to continue this practice. Lol everyone said they called while they were at school so maybe they’ll switch to email? Idk–actually they did say that after the call they received an email with more information so I suppose, even if you overlooked the call, you’d find out soon.
Based off of this thread, it seems that no one has received a finalist call? I truly do wonder if they’re emailing our rejections as they come and waiting until the end of the month to notify all the finalists at once. If someone has become a finalist, however, that would disprove this theory.
@positivepower when you say some calls were made today, do you mean you know someone who is a finalist?
Got a rejection email. No worries 
If it helps those still waiting on feedback, I did truly submit mine an hour before the deadline. If they’re really accepting on a rolling basis, and no one has received finalist calls, then there’s a chance they really are waiting to inform finalists. Hope this helps! Good luck to everyone else!
Finalist calls have been made and in-person interviews scheduled.
anyone got tips on prepping for the interviews? I’m stressin’ out
@2019sh yes! My DC was selected as a finalist! Good luck to everyone that got an interview!
Does anyone know when finalists will hear back? I heard early December.
@CollegeAhead I believe by mid-December they should be informed. How did everyones interview go!? My DC was pretty happy about the interview. Sending positive vibes for the next couple weeks.
