<p>I applied almost 5 weeks ago, and my materials were fully recieved 3 weeks ago. The website says I should expect a reply within two weeks of submitting. </p>
<p>Also, how will I be notified? Will I first be given an email? Or will it be uploaded on the portal?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance to any and all repliers :)</p>
<p>Hi:</p>
<p>Sorry about the delay. I have been adjusting to the new site and I did not see the notification of a new thread in the forum. The timing you described is right during the holiday shutdown and just before the semester begins. Now that the new students for Spring 2014 have started, you should get a response shortly. </p>
<p>You should see it in the portal and get an email.</p>
