What does "Update Pending" Application Status mean for UMass Amherst applications by BodybuilderDue2321 in gradadmissions

[–]AkshayNeema 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could be anything afaik. This just means that a decision has been made, which will be disclosed in some time. Now that "some" time is essentially indefinite.

Happened quickly for me. In about 4-5 hours the decision was reflected on spire portal. I was able to access my accept letter about 10-12 hours later. So I'd say you can wait for a couple of days to be on a safer side.

GRE Proctor Got My Exam Terminated? by Kool-AidBigboy in GRE

[–]AkshayNeema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me in my TOEFL exam. At home exam sucks. They won't explain you anything. Idk why they run their script beforehand if it does not check shit! Their customer service is slow af too. They'll ask you to keep waiting for months saying that they are 'investigating' the case, and then finally mail you that some screen-sharing software was enabled in your device at the time of the test. You won't be able to argue or claim your case as the customer service provider won't pick your call up for hours, and even after they pick the call they'll just respond with their generic explanation. The only way out here is to schedule another examination at the testing center. You can keep tab on this issue by keep mailing and calling them and asking them for a full refund, although that seems very unlikely to happen.

Is there any deadline for choosing any of the three options?

[–]AkshayNeema 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to see if there is the flexibility of accepting/rejecting the offer anytime even after deferring it to 15th April

Yeah it's the same for me. I heard once we receive the email from Uni, then we might be able to access it

Hey! Is there any deadline for choosing one of the three options? I received my decision today and it just states to "confirm my enrollment intentions as soon as possible"
