- Notes
- After hearing nothing even though the April 15 deadline had passed, I checked the website to find this mysterious notification: "A decision regarding your application has been reached." However, the decision wasn't available on the website. The site just directed me to contact the department. I didn't really want to because the late date made me pretty sure it was a rejection, and I didn't want to call them just to have them tell me in person that I was rejected. So, I waited for the department to at least send me a form letter. I'm still waiting. I e-mailed the DGS yesterday and am still awaiting a reply. I'll update if I hear anything.
