Although the Stage 3 deadline passed on March 8th, 2013, the school’s “open field” began on March 23rd, 2013 and will last until June 28th, 2013. During this period, applications will be evaluated on a rolling basis, so the sooner an applicant submits, the sooner they will receive a decision. Since spots are limited during this stage, the adcom highly recommends that applicants submit their materials as early as possible.
