I think last year they made it to
Nov. 20th or so if I am correct?

Based off the old thread Nov. 20th was the latest interview date I saw that got a decision. I believe there was only one 11/20 interviewee who got a decision though. This being said, notifications are going out very differently this year than they were last year so I don't know how good of a correlation there is. BTW, late November interviewee myself (pre-11/20) hoping for a decision too....My status changed to "Final Decision Pending" a few weeks ago... :xf: :luck:
 
jeez, are they even giving out anymore interview invites if they already accepted so many 🙁
 
final decision pending doesnt necessarily that people have been accepted- so only a few people have been accepted so far- dont worry there's always hope

Exactly, those of us with "Final Decision Pending" are still waiting to hear on a decision...I don't actually know for sure that having this status change means anything but last week frackrack explained it as follows...

it changes from "interview scheduled" to "interview complete- final decision pending" when your interviewer files the interview report (usually the same or next day).
The committee meets once a week to discuss the prior weeks applicants so after the meeting and your "decision" is made it changes to "final decision pending".
It stays like this until they release the decision (after which it goes to "accepted" for the deposit... status)

Do bear in mind this was a guess by frackrack, but seems logical. I don't really see how it affects those without interviews thus far, you had to assume they are meeting to make final decisions on completed files and not waiting until the end of the cycle.

is there really reason for people to believe that "final decision pending" at this stage is a strong suggestion of an acceptance soon?

i interviewed mid november and have that status now...so we'll have n+1 pretty soon...

I don't think anyone said anything about an acceptance, I think everyone gets that status. But it seems logical to think it suggests a decision has been made on your application (accept, waitlist, or reject).
 
sounds good. i haven't been up to date on this thread, but i know NYU has thrown us a curveball by sending some acceptances before they said they would, so i wanted to clarify.

Doesn't mean they'll release a lot of these decisions. Also "defer" may potentially be a type of decision as well.

Right, well I think they only seem to release the acceptances this early and the other decisions come in March.

They say they only release a small amount of acceptances in December, but I think it has at least significant in previous years. And they have released some already. I guess time will tell (that is if people post on the forum).

Ok guys,
I figured someone would do this so why not me....

I called and asked about acceptances.

"There will be a batch before christmas."
 
haha nice. i just wish we knew exactly when this batch would be sent out...and whether it would be through snail mail or email.
 
The past years it's been email so I would guess the same.

Also if I had to guess I'd say next week....
 
soooo frustrating that the website says 15th. should say "before the new year"
 
Before Christmas is nice- it means ~one week of less, because I doubt any one will be sending out emails on the 24th. Hopefully, us w/ mid-Nov interviews are included in this first round!

FYI, after looking around in last year's thread, not all who had "Final Decision Pending", sans "interview completed", received notification of their decision in the first round. Some went on to be waitlisted or rejected in late Feb.
 
I am going to guess Monday, the 20th, at 9:51 AM.

I mean not that specific, but I feel like Friday or Monday are good guesses. My tour guide said he heard during finals week, and much later than Monday is pushing pretty close to Winter Break. Also someone posted recently that they usually send out stuff on Fridays or Mondays, who knows.

Your right, make it + 10 minutes then.

Eastern time? And are you talking about the timestamp on the email? Or, when you receive it? Do you think it safe to assume a rejection or waitlist if my mailbox is still empty at 10:05 AM? 😕 BE MORE CLEAR NEXT TIME!!


😉
 
friday at 11:00 am is my guess

My friend got the call, too. Her interviewer was the Dean of Admissions, who was the person who called.

wow,
but i guess from other posters we can assume that if a call is made- it is the interviewer.
meaning its not alphabetical order for names.
and if you don't get a call it may be that the interviewer didn't get a chance yet.
not to worry- until the round of emails are sent.
can someone post when they get the accepted email for this round of acceptances?
 
i got the call from Dean Geneiser who was also my interviewer.
and yes 212 area code.

im still freakinggggg my ****zzz!!

so so far it was only one person calling
i guess permission was given at least for the others.
anytime now!!!!

PS: enjoy the high- a friend of mine made a fake phone call to me yesterday from a 212 (after i said how im waiting for a certain call)- so i know somewhat what this phone call will do for my heartrate!
 
I got it too! First acceptance! SOOOO EXCITED!!!!😍

if you don't mind landing down on earth for a few seconds though 🙂could you let us know if i was the dean or the interviewer? and what time did you get the call?

Mine was from Dean McGrath, who wasn't my interviewer, and the call time was 3:35pm.

She got my voicemail. Should I call back?? Of course she didn't ask me to, but I feel like the purpose of them calling is to get some sort of response from you or at least to hear your excitement.

waiting waiting waiting...
 
To the people who got accepted today: congratulations! Would you mind telling us 1) what date you interviewed, and 2) if your status on NYU's site has changed?

in addition
3) if the call was from your interviewer or the dean
4) what time was the call
5) let us know when you get the email
 
After reading this I checked my phone and sure enough a missed call / voice-mail from a 212 number!!

Edit: Just got the email (4pm) and the call was from a lady on behalf of Dean Geneiser (who was my interviewer)

Hope that helps, good luck!
 
i just got the email and it says that they also sent a letter to my permanent address today as well.

im rooting for u all!

Man that's a lot of info.

1) Oct. 25
2) "Final Decision Pending" still
3) Dean McGrath
4) 3:35pm
5) Got the email this morning (12/16) at exactly 8:52am!

And, if you wanted to know, I was at work, and I was in the middle of something, so it went to voicemail. I'll let everyone know if this affects their decision 😀
