I just got the email today that my dc was in, but he was able to login last week and saw he was accepted, so I think you can login even if you didn’t yet receive an email. His is for a language

Alternate are the top couple on the waitlist. Then regular waitlist. Then decline.

DC is an alternate. Hopeful but disappointed.

Yes. Not sure why they email during school hours. My DC applied for engineering and didn't get in. Was a long shot but still disappointed. Congrats to those who get in!

Gov school is up there with NISL-Y and would count as the “National” level awards people in here are always talking about.
