Chicago MSFM Chicago MSFM Admission Discussion

[zhyimin]

Nothing positive coming out yet. Just a rejection and a waitlist.
Anyone with an acceptance today?

Waitlisted too

 

[Econogeek]

Rejected on my side

 

[Andy Nguyen]

Waitlisted too

Can you please add your timelines and profile to the Tracker? I would be curious to see what your profile looks like.

 

[Nelkshake]

Rejected will add to the tracker

Hope that those who got waitlisted get a decision by the end of March.

 

[Ramy]

Get the waitlist. To be honest, I am quite pessimistic since there were few cases that waitlists became offers in the past.

 

[YuminWu]

Waitlist. Pray and hope

This time I have not heard anyone that still got two checklists and received no news from the school except the second round people. I think it is a situation for everyone it's either rejection or wait list. With that being said, you shouldnt be pessimistic unless MSFM doesn't have any spots left for first round.

You brought us a glimmer of hope among the darkness and despair.
Today bought about waitlist and rejection. There are about 10 more pending applications on the Tracker so we will see how they turn out.

Got waitlisted till the end of March!
Should we do anything from our side to increase chances?

I think uploading anything, such as sample works for projects, that could appeal to the admission committee via the application portal may be the best move for now.

Any idea what's the deadline to pay deposit for the people who got admit in first batch (21st Feb), also is it different for people with and without scholarship ?

Seems no difference, even the second batch (28th Feb). All need to pay deposit before March 21st.

Does anyone have any idea of whats the rough chances of being accepted after being waitlisted or is it over for us more or less?

 

[lnxdx]

Is it usual to have about 16 waitlists in quantnet (for UChicago)? a very interesting outcome.

last year one person of the twenty or so on quantnet with waitlists was accepted... not to be a total downer lol
