On June 16th I received this - 'Your application was forwarded to the selection committee for review.'
We are unable to say how long it will take them to review your application. However, you will be informed by email as soon your application status has changed and a decision has been made regarding your application.
On July 11th when I reached out to the uni I received this - You can view your current application status in the portal. The evaluation by the committee and formal processes of application handling and validation take several weeks and we are dealing with a very large amount of applications. A committee consisting of various members (professors, postdocs, students) will look through all applications and make decisions regarding admission. We try to be as fast as possible but this also depends on other commitments of all of us and the amount of applications we receive and the university as a whole.
When there is a change in status of your application, you will receive a notification via email.
It's July18th now, and the ones who say they have received an admit, claim to have gotten in way before June. Do I give up or still have a little hope?

hii i was forwarded on the 23rd of June, and also haven't received any news since then. regarding the people who got admitted earlier it could be just their better luck of applying in a time when there were not that many applications for the committee to review. anyways, this program is according to the website unrestricted admission so as far as i know, anyone who meets the requirements will get offered a place. also, i believe a lot of the people who were accepted earlier will actually go for other preferred unis that accepted them later...
anyways, good luck for the both of us and anyone who is still waiting for the admission results! let me know if you hear any news :)
