TTP(s)B: pertaining to the emails that multiple people received from the graduate admissions office, we should all be getting our decisions notified by end of next week. Hang in there y'all. Good luck!

did not have the 5 years of experience they wanted. was my super reach!

Got a nice personal email about the waitlist

TTPB: I'm an American student and haven't yet received a decision.

TTPB: How did you know the data for Open House?

Open house in 15 March. Anybody notified?

I'm the admit to the HTC program from yesterday. I was quite shocked to receive the phone call (all the admits in this forum from previous years occur in March!), but it is an official acceptance, letter to follow. I Zoomed with a few faculty members in the fall but have had zero contact since applying. They called me rather late yesterday, so other notifications may come later. I was admitted for architectural history.

Applied to MG&G, but I think all applications are considered together.

TP(Very)B: MIT's target cohort size does not appear to be smaller. As is the case in every year, MIT's cohort is constrained by available funding. Whoever claimed to have "insider" information about MIT/Stanford/Chicago/Princeton appears to be speculating.

TTPB: Congrats! Did you have an interview whatsoever before the acceptance? Seems quite an early decision.

To the MIT admit: Congrats! Did you apply for architecture or art history?

I'm also seriously leaning towards MIT since placement is consistently stronger. Also heard that advisors generally care more about students

Expected because POIs had no funding. Was planning on going elsewhere anyway.

TTPB who also got an interview: Did you actually get your interview schedule yet?

Anyone else thinking to defer due to Covid-19 disruption in Fall 2021/immigration issues?

To Harvard / MIT cross admits: which one are you leaning toward?
