[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do schools go about making their final decisions in these last two weeks? Are they focused on applicants on the bubble at this point?[/quote] I suspect all decisions are made at this point, or very close to it. There are a lot of logistics that need to happen, and that have to go off without a hitch - admissions materials, acceptance to specific programs (at some schools), merit decisions, FA, etc. They have to implement that across decisions and ensure every applicant has all the correct information. Then, there is the execution that goes into 2/27. Some schools have mailings; all (I think?) have email or portals; and some have a phone call tree to quickly reach admitted students. For them, it's all about getting a strong yield quickly after decisions. I suspect at this point there is some ordering or prioritization of the kids that will end up on waitlists, too.[/quote]
