In preparation for First Year decisions, the myStatus page will be temporarily closed. This will affect the status check for First Year and Transfer applicants. We must do this to allow our office to begin the final stages of the decision process. We will still be making transfer decisions during this time and letters will continue to be mailed Please bear with us as we move forward with decisions. We do not have a date for the release of First Year decisions. Once that is available, we will post an update.
