bring a book or pray for an interesting group of interviewees. Most of the day is spent in this little conference room waiting for your 30 min interview 👎
They leave you in this conference room to write your essay and browse their website on a computer in the room - I looked up info on my interviewer, which really helped, because she was a researcher and I was able to prepare some questions specific to her research ahead of time.
there seem to be several of them.. they pass out a stack of colored sheets (each with a different question) and you get whatever topic/question you happen to take. i think they're all sort of ethics questions.
Pre-interview status changed from no decision to "Thank you for your application. Your file has been reviewed and will be re-evaluated later in the season for a final decision."
Guess that means no interview invite for me 🙁 oh well.

Some other ppl felt the same way and ended up getting in. when did u interview btw?
November 12th
The date doesn't seem to have much to do with when you get a response though (noting that guy with a 15 week later response).
I'm also out of state so they have a pretty low acceptance for out of state (for a private school) in such a populated area.
Don't sweat at it (although I know its easier said than done). You don't know if your rejected until you get the letter - right now your odds are exactly the same as they were the second you stepped out of the interview room.
anyone get out of hold here yet? (pre-interview!!)
EDIT: i mean the "we will re-evaluate your file later in the cyle" status 😉

my interview went horrid and I got accepted I wouldnt worry too much. It was my worst interview ive been on this whole cycle and my interviewer didnt seem like he cared at all about what I said. That being said I withdrew anyways dont want to go to drexel but hopefully someone gets my spot 🙂.
Complete early September. Same.

complete mid sept. and put on hold today.
no, not an e-mail, but your status on the website should change to something like "Your file is currently under review by the admissions committee".
teh general admin office address. Its on the website when you log in. Kareem or someone will forward it to the right person.

I'm in the same boat - no clue.
the infamous hold message....i've had it for quite some time...apparently it's possible to get an interview after having it, but who really knows?
did they email you to tell you your status had changed? or did you just find out from checking obsessively (which i would be doing, too, but their website is so annoying that it makes it hard to be obsessive)?
I interviewed earlier than that and I'm still waiting to see if I'm rejected. They seem to review applications pretty randomly. My status has changed though, so I'm waiting to see if I have a decision in the mail.
Sadly, yes.
I didn't get an email. I just check it obsessively lol
The hold club. Glad to have you as a fellow member Zona.

dudes...i interviewed back in like...october. wtf. still nothing.
saaammeee hereeee!! agh. i dunno if this makes you feel any better but.. two years ago, I was "under review" for several months ... when i finally decided to call and ask about it, it turned out that my interviewer was away ..
quick question for those who were accepted. Did any of you have really short faculty interviews. I had mine at hahnemann and the doctor seemed like a nice guy. but he asked me maybe 4-5 questions and the interview was over. he wished me luck, and my student interview went great but this is making me pretty nervous.
