Remember, the amount of people applying on CC is not representative of the total application pool.
And plus, I've more or less accepted my imminent rejection, so I'm not waiting on anything.

I'm almost w/ you @AlphaR, I just have a little hope I might get in. When do they usually send results? Email or mail?

Someone suggested I call MITES and ask for my decision since I need to notify STEP-UP by the 28th... Good or bad idea?

I think it's by mail, so waiting yay!
At least it's not by e-mail, which I think is a lot more heartless. But then again, that's how most colleges are.

That's odd, I was under the impression that this would be electronic notification... nothing beats snail mail, lol
@lesley
I would call, but they probably haven't made all the decisions yet... Ask step-up for a deadline extension too.

@AlphaR: very true. guess i was trying to give myself some false hope for better chances
I wish I could do that...I am working on it...now I am only thinking about mites 75% of all the time vs. the 99% previously haha |

@ Lesley
I agree with lanayru, you should call STEP-UP and ask them for an extended deadline. I'm not sure if it would be the best idea to ask mites that, instead I would ask them if they know the exact day that decisions will be sent.

Sent from my SPH-D710 using CC

on MITES site:
We know that we have very accomplished applicants, unfortunately at this time we will be unable to amend any MITES applications with any new information. Thank you for your time, and we'll be in touch in mid-late April with decisions.
Mid-late April? Please don't be late April.....

And just wondering, since a lot of CCers seem to have applied, are all of you minorities (as in non white, indian/asian)?

I was adopted by Caucasian parents so racially I'm Asian but ethnically I'd say more Caucasian :P
