arms control

Read a random definition: prepayment penalty

A quick definition of arms control:

Arms control is a way to make sure that countries don't have too many weapons that could cause a big war. It's like making sure that everyone has a fair amount of toys to play with so that no one gets hurt. This helps to keep everyone safe and happy.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Arms control is a policy that aims to reduce the likelihood of war by limiting the number of weapons of mass destruction a country possesses.

For example, the United States and Russia have engaged in arms control negotiations to reduce their nuclear arsenals. This helps to prevent a nuclear war and promotes international peace.

Arms control is different from disarmament, which involves the complete elimination of weapons. Arms control seeks to manage the number and types of weapons, while disarmament aims to eliminate them entirely.

Are yall listing the other schools you're applying to when asked on an application? I feel iffy about it, especially at schools where yield protection might be a problem

i don't think it has a detrimental effect on your chances of admission

but also you don't need to tell them anything so lol
Can y'all help me understand something lol. What does it mean for an app to "go complete"? Is that when the school has reviewed it and made a decision?
13:35
Na, it's when they have all the required information
Gotcha. So what would be the difference between received and completed?
Does complete entail like the app + LORs?
13:35
correct
That makes sense. Thank you!
13:36
complete basically means they've acknowledged receipt and it's ready to go under review whenever they start the deliberative process
