A (for P/T) Took the plunge and didn't apply elsewhere. UR 5/09, Decision date 6/17.
Hey everyone, Im planning on applying next cycle! This may seem dumb but do you think an ED application would be more competitive than a RD application? The wording on the website makes it sound more selective, "We accept a small number of students via Early Decision each year". Idk maybe im overthinking it.
Anyone heard from cuny?
Application was in review but it disappeared
mine disappeared
Have you reached out to them? dont know if i should email them.
What day did everyone's status disappear? Mine just did
Has anyone heard anything from CUNY yet>
the date is 12/23/24; saw some CUNY decisions on Reddit; my app is still in review - submitted 12/6.
wishing us all luck.
I got in!
The date is 2/10/25; I applied on December 6th. CUNY is my top choice. I am still waiting back :)
Congratulations @IgnorantMaddeningCrab :3
I'm in the same boat. I also applied December 6th and waiting to hear back
Do you think we will get decisions this week?

4/13/25: has anyone heard back from CUNY? My application was UR2 as of this Friday, but today 2/13 the date has disappeared.
4/13*
