<p>When does one find out if one has made the cut? I called and they said they do a massive, onetime review in November as the deadline is the 31st of October, but that leaves one month essentially for getting ready to transfer and registering etc. Is this really when they notify you?</p>
<p>I've applied for the spring too and this seems to be the case. It's inconvenient, but I'd imagine if they made admissions decisions before the deadline, they'd fill all available slots in each major well before the deadline.</p>
<p>Though I'd be pretty mad if I am rejected in favor of someone who waited until Oct. 31 to get their application in (that says a lot about their work ethic...or lack), that's how it works.</p>
<p>So I guess we're stuck crossing our fingers and praying until then. I'm sure if you have perfect grades, knockout essays, and the best application in the world that you'd get a letter before November, but for those of us who don't, we have to play the waiting game for a while.</p>
