MIT MFin MIT MFin Admission Discussion


Ha ha I saw that one.

There is also the guy who spammed like 5 questions that were already answered.
 
Yea, seriously. Based on the caliber of these questions, I'd say the odds look decent. Then again, I know better than to think that.
 
Yeah I was thinking that.

But who knows..

Nothing really concrete came out of this chat.
 
Can't agree more, it is totally unequal situation, MIT don't want to provide any specific data for the Waiting Listers...

I imagine earliest you would hear would be mid-april when the intent for those who have offers is due.
 
Yeah that's what I thought... well the wait is surely a long one... especially when we have no concrete info to go by.
 
Yeah.. during the chat, they said "anytime till class starts"...

Not very concrete at all!

Hi, I was also admitted from the wait list via phone call. Have you received any additional e-mails explaining the next steps?
 
Several people (I think at least 10) have been offered admission from waiting list last week, so...:unsure:
