Seconding jphiggo on this! Also- he and I were both transfers last year, so (speaking for both of us) we are happy to answer questions if anyone has any throughout the process. I know TLS was helpful to me throughout the craziness of transfer season last year.

Good luck and hopefully see you in August :D

I would think so based on previous years. I'm actually a little surprised there were no decisions last week.

Around what time did everyone receive calls? I'm hoping they have a few more calls to make today...

When did your files enter the "under review" status? Thanks

To everyone receiving calls, did you also receive an email? Before or after the call? Does your online status page reflect the offer of admission?

I submitted grades 6/15 and went under review 6/17. I applied in May.

No email, no status check update. I was told a package was coming in the mail.
