The 8th and the 10th of January interviews will in all likelihood be evaluated in the same meeting, so I really doubt that which day you attend matters.
Is anyone else just absolutely hating this long wait???
Only 2 days now!
This is when just beginning break becomes a problem. Gotta find a way to distract myself.
I recommend Firefly
This is painful.
I'm starting to suspect that we won't hear today, either. I think that they have had a lot of problems moving to their new system.
I just got off the phone with the admissions office. They said that we will hear today, contingent on the software system functioning properly. If we don't hear today, they said we will hear no later than tomorrow.
you. are. amazing.
thanks for updating!
Yes, thank you SO much for calling!I just got off the phone with the admissions office. They said that we will hear today, contingent on the software system functioning properly. If we don't hear today, they said we will hear no later than tomorrow.
i'm sure everyone else feels the same way, but i really feel as if i am about to lose my mind. First we were supposed to find out sometime between the 7th and the 10th, then the 13th. I somehow made it to today, when we were promised we would finally find out, and now it may not happen. I can't take much more of this!

And I was really hoping to find out before my birthday party tonight...
Ok guys. Just called the admissions office. They said it won't be until tomorrow because they're having trouble with their servers communicating.
Well, if it makes you feel any better, as far as I know, the date was originally set for the 12th, because that's when the board met. But on the 12th when I called, they said by Friday of that week. When I called on Friday, they said Monday at the latest. Annnnd when I called today, they said tomorrow.
I feel like since they're having so much trouble with their software, they should just go old-fashioned and call folks. That's what OSU does, and they never seem to have any problems. Hell, they called me and offered me a spot two weeks after my interview in October.
I certainly feel like I'm losing my mind as well. I'm not sure why so many of us are so impatient, but there's just something about not knowing what you're doing the next decade that is a little unsettling. Just tell me, OU!
I did apply to this school, and I am lucky I didn't interview. I did match into my to choice UTSW. Frankly, and it is not out of bitterness for the school, but the way you are being treated is truly terrible.
Hang in there people. It will make.the acceptance even sweeter

Yeah, I've already got another acceptance here in state, and it's looking sweeter and sweeter every day that I have to wait. But, the admissions staff have very little bearing on quality of education, so I'm still optimistic.
I've interviewed at 5 schools (3 in TX, OU, and SLU), and OU is the ONLY one that has given solid dates of when they will let us know something. Even though they keep pushing the date back a few days, it is REALLY nice to know that in the near future I will be given a decision one way or the other. I have loved the other schools too, but I interviewed at one over 4 months ago and haven't heard a single word- not even to be told I'm on a wait list! It's frustrating that there are issues with the new software at OU, but I much prefer the way that OU does things because it takes out a lot of the guesswork.I did apply to this school, and I am lucky I didn't interview.

Another day of waiting?!?!? I'd honestly rather not have a clue when we are supposed to find out than have this whole "oh it'll just be another day or two" thing happen 946 times.

I am just wondering why it is so important to link it to the system right now.. Since they have the lists with accepted/waitlist/rejected so couldn't they just notify everyone and go back to log it all when the system is up and running? I understand that would be more time consuming, but at least they could take their time with it and not be stressed about fixing it within the arbitrary notification dates that we keep getting.
