<p>one of my friends sent me the link to the accepted students website... i tried to log in with my account, but it wouldn't go through... even though i haven't officially been rejected yet, i would take this as a bad sign, right?</p>
<p>More likely no decision has been made on your app or the status has not been entered yet.</p>
<p>samesies00--my D can't log in and is accepted, and at least one other person has same problem (see username and password thread). So being able to log in or not isn't meaning anything about your decision right now at least....</p>
