<p>was it just the director (Dr. S) or Mr. Howley?</p>
<p>Mr. Howley is just the coordinator and the director is the only one looking at the apps</p>
<p>They received my application on April 12. Is it weird that I haven’t heard anything from them yet? I am US resident btw</p>
<p>They received my app on the 12th too so I think you’re good. I have seen on other threads that borderline applicants may take longer but I really don’t know at this point.</p>
<p>How do you know when they received your app? I have USPS confirmation that it was delivered this week, so I know it’s there. Probably haven’t processed it yet since it’s only been a short time since.</p>
<p>They’ll send you an email confirming that they received your application.</p>
<p>Rejected today :/</p>
<p>How many problems did you do? How long were your essays?</p>
<p>To all those rejected: do not fret! If you are still a 9th/10th grader and you really want to go to PROMYS, apply again next year. I was rejected my 10th grade year, but I applied again the following year and I was accepted (and had the greatest summer of my life!).</p>
<p>Congrats to all accepted. If you do go, you’ll have an amazing time.</p>
<p>I did 7.5 problems and for the essays I didn’t know we had to write an essay so I just wrote a few sentences lol.</p>
<p>Hey guys! I’m a PROMYS alum 2012, and returning this year. If you have any questions you can ask me! </p>
<p>@twofeetleft Did you go last year?</p>
<p>I’m probably completely borderline, even though (I think) I solved 10/10.</p>
<p>They said all decisions should come out before the beginning of next week, but they are trying to get all decisions in before the end of this week (5/10/13). [Ref: I called Adam up]</p>
<p>solving 10/10 will not guarantee and even make you average. All that matters is you know who to solve the problems in a smart way that is intelligent. People get in by only solving 4!!!</p>
<p>How do applicants get notified of acceptance or rejection?
Thanks</p>
<p>Email…to you and CC to your parents</p>
<p>Sorry guys who messaged me. I haven’t really been on CC to post a lot, so I’ll get back to you guys once I have 15 posts up!</p>
