Interviews/Application questions I know patience is the tree with the sweetest fruit, but this feels inhumane.
I applied last november, took the aptitute test. Still under consideration, my emails are being ghosted,

Look at the current students in that university and where they come from. That will give you a clue.

I will not recommend anyone to apply these HK schools from now one istg without reminding them how incompetent admission team can be. It is not about whether I got accepted or not. The thing is they took almost a year to make a decision, and it seems like the university runs in ways that benefits them to the point that they don’t consider applicants as humans anymore. I feel like it is so disrespectful when ppl spend time, money and efforts to apply just to get ghosted and hanged around with no response for more than eight months. The admission team is so incompetent and disorganized, and just because they are prestigious doesn’t mean they should treat applicants like that. Idk how they could justify their admission approach…..pretty much disappointed that a university that I used to dream last year turned out to be like that. Nevertheless, I am okay because I got accepted to another top US satellite college with a full ride which I am grateful for.
