Hi,
I applied for the PSI masters program, but haven't heard back from them at all. My application status still says "in review". Anyone else in the same situation?
I'm expecting a rejection, especially since I haven't been interviewed. But having no closure and feedback in such a long time is a bit annoying!

It sounds like you're feeling a bit frustrated with the lack of communication from the PSI masters program. I understand how that can be really difficult and disheartening. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for universities to take a long time to get back to applicants. It may be that they are just overwhelmed with applications and don't have the resources to respond quickly.That said, there are a few things you can do. You can try reaching out to the admissions office or program coordinator to check in on your status. You may also want to consider reaching out to current students in the program to ask about their experience and what the process was like for them. It can be helpful to hear from someone who has gone through the same process.Best of luck!
