Thanks for the update. Ya not communicating earlier to help applicants set expectations for an upcoming high-coordination event on a certain date is a pretty large demonstration of poor judgment that generally makes one want to lower expectations on every other aspect. But it’s a good idea/initiative and sometimes smart people make isolated mistakes. Hoping for the best in Jan.
Yeah, I fully agree with this, and am aware of the cost. Apologies once more for not jumping in sooner when I wasn’t sure whether applicants had been emailed by my colleague or not.
Everyone who applied to the upcoming program should have heard back now! (Decisions were sent out shortly after you posted your comment.) People who said they couldn’t make the upcoming program but wanted to be considered for future programs we might run haven’t been notified, since we don’t know what those events will look like yet or if they’ll happen.
