<p>rolling just means they begin reviewing each app when they receive it i believe. i applied 11/24. and i called and they said that they had decided on 1/20. Just be patient, it will come</p>
<p>Rolling admissions means they make admit decisions throughout the application season, instead of, say, waiting and sending out all the decisions on one or two dates.</p>
<p>How quickly you'll hear back will vary from school to school, even if they both claim to have rolling admissions. it has to do with how selective the institution is, and where you fall along the quality spectrum of applications they are receiving.</p>
