<p>Yesterday I called CUNY Queens College to ask why I had not received a decision since I applied early in the year and was told the following:</p>

<p>If you have been accepted to your #1 school there is a good possibility that your application will not be sent out to the rest of your choices. </p>

<p>If this is the case the only way to fix it is to
• Call the CUNY university center and have them change it, but this may rescind your application from the schools you have been accepted to.
• You can go straight to the school and speak to their admissions counselors where they <em>may or may not</em> be able to help you apply to their school.</p>

<p>Not true.</p>

<p>You can be accepted to more than one CUNY. However, each school makes their decision independently. Queens received a very large number of applications this year (to the point that they have asked some students to defer til spring 2014). They had a very small spring 2013 admissions.</p>

<p>I’m not saying for school specific. The admissions officer said that CUNY as a whole received a ginormous amount of applicants so some students will not hear back from multiple schools of they were accepted by their #1 I know that you can be accepted to more than one, but if you haven’t heard back from more than just your #1 that may be why.</p>
