<p>@annac6 I was accepted by McGill in late-Feb and received my Major Entrance Scholarship award about 3 weeks later in mid-March. For those 3 weeks leading up to the award, my status page listed the scholarship as ‘under-review’.</p>

<p>Really really bummed about this. McGill was my top choice. Oh well…</p>
<p>@kyle76 Ahh… Sorry mate…I guess your Reading score is what pulled down your application. McGill is really fussy about their SAT minimums. According to the website you need a minimum of 620 in Reading to get into Sciences and Engineering. Maybe you could retake the test in May and then write a letter of reconsideration to McGill?</p>

<p>@upapilot, it’s alright. It’s just really disappointing. Made a typo up there, meant to put 2100. But no, I’m not going to go through that trouble for McGill. Guess it wasn’t meant to be.</p>
<p>Hi guys 
i’m an international student and I applied for a civil engineering course at McGill. my application status have been reviewed decision pending for like 2 months now. Is this normal?? Does anyone here have a similar problem??? I also want to know the decisions made after this status :)</p>
<p>@Haddadinzz Yes it is possible to get a positive decision after that status though there is no definite time as to * when * you may get one. I believe @sspdsk8a and a couple of others had to wait for almost 2 months after the “Reviewed Decision Pending” to get a final decision.</p>
<p>@upapilot well it is good to hear that others are in the same boat as I am 
. anyways thank you for your response and good luck everyone :)</p>
<p>@haddadinzz are you American?</p>
<p>@sspdsk8a no Jordanian…</p>
<p>Oh ok I don’t know how colleges work where you’re from. In America you have to commit to a college by May 1 and that complicates things for those accepted after that date. But I’m pretty sure you can switch, you just lose your initial deposit.</p>
<p>@sspdsk8a well I only applied for british and canadian universities. Does this rule apply to them?? Especially if you have applied to more than one university in canada?? </p>
<p>Well then it depends on whether you have been accepted/waitlisted anywhere in Canada or Britain.
In the American system, all the decisions are sent out on one date so you have to reply by a particular deadline.
In Canada however, there is a rolling admission process so decisions are mailed until late-May.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Not true. The common decision date is only for Ivy League schools. Other American schools have their own decision dates or are rolling. </p>
<p>@tomofboston What I meant was that each college in the US releases all (or almost all) of its decisions on a specific date. The actual date however, may vary from college to college. This is in contrast to the Canadian system where most of the univs follow a rolling process.</p>

<p>International student from Malaysia, still waiting for a decision from the faculty of science, it’s been on ‘Reviewed-decision pending’ for months now. Really hoping to be able to join the neuroscience programme and hoping for an answer soon, as I’ve had an offer from JHU and the deadline to reply is fast approaching too :</p>
<p>Hey guys, it is now mid may and my status is still reviewed-decision pending 
. it’s weird because my marks are way above the admission requirements for the engineering course. does anyone still has this status. is there a chance that i can excepted :S </p>
<p>@Haddadinzz: Mine was still in “further review required” until today, where I just got my acceptance to McGill Ingram school of Nursing! So don’t worry, but email/call them to make sure. That’s what I did, and I got my acceptance a week later. </p>
<p>@Pumpkin96 congratulations!! It is good to hear that they are still accepting people. I sent them a message on facebook today and they just told me to wait. I’m literally freaking out right now :S</p>
