    Personal statement reapplicant

    Does anyone know if you're a reapplicant do you need to make a new personal statement? I called ICO and they said I didn't because if I get a supplemental application there should be a part on it where I explain what I've done since I applied last. Are other schools similar in that sense? Thanks

    Apply twice to the same schools, or wait for a stronger app?

    Hi Everyone, I saw a few threads that were somewhat similar to this, but couldn't find a case that exactly matched mine, and there didn't seem to be a definitive answer as some threads contradicted others. I'm wondering if applying to schools in one cycle, then re-applying in the next cycle...

    Reapplying to schools that: 1) I was waitlisted at/ withdrew from, and 2) I declined interviews to?

    Hi! I applied last cycle and received a few interview offers at a very wide range of schools: Duke, UCSF, GW, SUNY Downstate, NYMC. My SUNY and NYMC interview invites came pretty late in the game. I was also being excessively picky, so I politely turned down both these interviews. I realize...

    So, I just found out that I was denied admission to OSU. I was also denied admission to CSU; which was partly expected considering I'm OOS. But, the rejection from OSU, my IS, really, really, really, bummed me out to say the least. I didn't even get so far as to have an interview... I wanted to...
