Você deve ter entrado então. Seu status mudou pra decision at some point?
A esta altura, não ter recebido email é um bom sinal, porque as rejections e deferrals foram enviadas por email. Seu package deve estar chegando..

dggc,
Meu status mudou sim, ontem. Pois é, espero ter entrado, mas fui testemunha do nível de organização das faculdades e não descarto a possibilidade de bug...
Vc aplicou para GULC?

Hello everyone...
Congrats to all who was accepted...
I have a question... I have not applied yet, I was waiting for the Toefl exam, and now I got everything together... With Christmas and New Years going on... I really dont think i will be able to submit applications until first week of January.... I was planning to apply to CLS, but missed the deadline... I'm thinking about other schools, but my GPA here in Brazil is 7,1, that is 2,8. Im still working on my proposal... and will be done with this by Jan 15th.... Considering that the deadlines are until February, do you think I still got chances??? Or is it too late??? I see everyone got things set already... I think I spent too much time thinking...
In regard to the ranking... my school will not provide me one... triste!!! =(

Essa média é baixa pra average de gpa das pessoas aceitas nessas escolas top. Entretanto, a média realmente não é a única coisa considerada. Eu penso que no caso dos brasileiros, ngm chega lá com média A, a menos que venha de uma universidade que não seja Top Tier no país. Assim, isso não quer dizer que vc esteja de fora automaticamente. Quer dizer que para se apresentar como um candidato competitivo vc tem que complementar o resto do application. Já que o GPA não chama atenção, tente chamar pelo resto. Atividades extra-curriculares, publicações, boas credenciais profissionais e excelentes cartas de recomendação.
Também pensei bastante no GPA, pq a minha não é das melhores (B), nem minha experiencia profissional (em direito) passou do estágio. O resto eu corri atrás e melhorei tudo com esse propósito..Publiquei fora, fui eleito em executiva de associação nacional, participei desses conselhos de formulação de política pública, recomendação de Juiz, grupo de pesquisa com former Lemann Scholar (harvard), etc, etc...Enfim há alternativas e GPA não é tudo.
Good Luck!

For the sake of the CLS quotas, do you think that brazilians are considered Latinamericans or just brazilians ? I'm chilean by the way, congratulations to all of you who have been accepted already.
Boa Natal!
