TTPB: I was referring to your first post, I know that in the second post you said unlikely, but I was pointing out that there's an inconsistency in your first and second post since your first post didn't indicate any exception to admits being finalized.

Do you understand the difference between 'unlikely' and 'impossible'? Admissions are finalized and sent out but students may decline offers, which means it is unlikely to get acceptance by now but not impossible. The more you rely on false hopes, the more you would be disappointed when you got rejection in the end.

TTPB: The admission number in the tableau has not changed since Feb. However, many offers were sent out, which means that statics are not updated.

TTPB: You initially claimed that your POI stated that all admits were finalized though, even giving exact numbers of how many. If they're still sending offers to people from the shortlist why would your POI say all admits are finalized?

TTPB: To be fair, a decent number of programs have explicitly said their decisions are delayed by the ongoing national emergency. I have not checked this notion thoroughly, but I think additional programs are likely delayed yet have not notified applicants.

TTPB: Based on their previous admission status, most of PhD offers are sent out before Mar. Rejections will be sent out in the beginning of April. So, maybe time to think about the 2021Fall/Spring.

Is it still possible to get admission from gatech? They said they will continue to review applications until the first week of April but it looks like hope is dim for me...
