<p>When do they start notifications and does anyones app status say anthing except "Your application is awaiting a preliminary review"?</p>
<p>My app was complete on September 26th, when should I expect a reply? Will they notify me through the website or mail?</p>
<p>Notification will be though the mail. I haven't heard of any acceptances being given before mid-December, and they can drag on into the summer if you are waitlisted.</p>
