RSI 2020

I didn’t get an email yet, and I’m also international. Does it say on their website when our decisions are going to be released?

@tauraus Did you submit your application directly or did you contact Ms. Ballestero and went through some process with the agency conducting selection at your country, as the website says?

@AcePossum I submitted directly. Looking at the website again, maybe I should’ve done that… What about you?

@AcePossum we tried contacting Ms. Ballestero before applying but she did not respond. So, we went ahead and applied directly.

@tauraus @sophMom2021 I’m also an international applicant who applied directly. I didn’t get an email either. Also, is anyone else applying from Canada?

@tauraus @sophMom2021 I submitted my application directly, too, and I haven’t gotten an email yet either. Maybe we should try contacting her?

Looking at last year’s thread, it seems to be that international results are released later; last year, it came out over 3 weeks after the US results. If you check RSI 2019 thread, someone says on March 27 (26 days after US results) "“International decisions are out, I got in!”
In terms of the application method, since @sophMom2021 said they tried contacting Ms. Ballestero but she didn’t reply, that’s relieving LOL. That leads me to assume that no international applicant must have applied through her.

@tauraus Congratulations.

Congratulations to all the kids who got in.

@tauraus thanks for the info

As a precaution against coronavirus, MIT just told its students to go home after spring break and not come back. Admitted student weekends at MIT and many other colleges have been canceled.

Given this, there’s a good chance that RSI will also be canceled.

It’s impossible to tell that now, because RSI starts in the back end of summer. If coronavirus does not subside by that time, there’s a good chance but I think the main problem then will be travel (especially international). Still, there’s no way to tell right now and I really hope it won’t come to that.

Anyone from ID?

Congrats!

Congrats! Y’all are awesome :slight_smile:
Sorry, just to clarify: have acceptances come out for everyone?

@sigmapibonds Nope, decisions aren’t out yet for international students

Thank you! What about domestic applicants?

@sigmapibonds Domestic applicants should’ve gotten their decisions a couple days ago (March 9th I believe?)

Anyone from CT?

Hmm that’s weird. I’m domestic and have not gotten anything (no decision whatsoever). What do you guys make of this? Also, if you’re a Cali kid, please let me know if you share my situation.
