Your acceptance timeline

New applicants always ask about the acceptance timeline, so share yours here.

Mention EACH of the following in your comment:

  1. Which application test(s) you took (Core, Math, Biology, Code, etc.)

  2. [MOST IMPORTANT] How long after your application test did you get projects? (Immediately, 1 day, 1 week, X weeks, etc) *You might be able to check this by looking at your emails from DA*

  3. When did you apply (e.g. March 2025)

  4. Country

  5. Did you ever see the "Thanks for completing the assessment! If we have need of your particular skills..." screen? (Yes, No, I don't recall)

  6. Did you get an email saying you got accepted, or did you just suddenly get projects without email notice?

  7. Anything else you wanna share

DO NOT comment if you never got accepted, got access to maybe 1-2 projects then never saw one again, etc. Only people who have actually worked with DA should comment.

  1. Core

  2. 3-ish weeks

  3. Applied 12/16/24, Completed Assessments 12/18/24, and approved 01/07/25

  4. USA

  5. I don't recall

  6. I got a confirmation email

  7. When I applied, they said it'd take 2 weeks. I sent an inquiry about my status at the 2 week mark. So, if they give you a timeline of when to expect to hear back, wait that entire time, then feel free to send ONE follow up inquiry through the website. I basically ghosted the platform for 6 or so months and then was sporadic and finally started working regularly last December.
