It seems there weren't.

I just received an email for an interview at Cambridge from the 17-20th, is anyone else going to be there at that time?

Mine is on the 17th~ in Cambridge

wouldn't they still send out a few invites on feb 16? thats my last hope

Well, Monday is also a holiday. I'm guessing that rejection notifications will go out on Tuesday.

Added my application to the tracker. Waiting patiently for what's next.

 

[Willyboy]

Does anyone know how common scholarships are? As in how many people get them, the usual amount, etc.

 

[MarekSabata]

Anyone got reject already?

 

[DAMV]

I'm a South American applicant and I still haven't received any communication from MIT. The status in my MIT account still reads: "submitted and being evaluated". Is there still hope?

According to the admissions blog if you are not getting an interview you were supposed to be notified yesterday, which motivates the thought "well if I didn't hear yet, I must be on the interview list". A single person confirming a rejection justifies the thought while a lack of any confirmations makes it more likely the first round rejections are just delayed by snow/holiday/etc.

We're both still alive based on available info

Yesterday, I was refreshing the site every 30-60 minutes and it was down for about half an hour around 1pm EDT. I wonder if that was downtime to push out the initial wave of rejections.

The weather is horrible in Boston for the past two days....So I wouldn't be surprised that the page went down. I asked the admissions people today and they said that they will be starting make decision in the coming week. The lastest interview I know is happening is on the 24th, so Im assuming there is still interviews not being handed out yet

The temperature is cold but what's been brutal is the near continuous snow fall. I swear we've gotten 6 feet in the last 3 or so weeks and with the temperature staying so cold we don't get any melt in between snowstorms. It's getting to the point where snow blowers can't even throw high enough to clear snow banks.

it was -34 in toronto when I left.....so...... its not that bad is cambridge

 

[andreasosap]

Anyone got rejected already? Also, does anyone know if invites for Latin America candidates have been sent already?
Thanks!
