    Curious as to why applicants are dropping now. I suppose just cutting their losses. My guess: Google and Amazon will stay “all in”, if for no other reason, “defensive” maneuvering. Besides, the $ millions they’ve invested –are just pocket change on their books.

    Applicants can still get 70% of their application fees back now.

    Once Initial evaluations are released the refund drops to 35%
