3-4 days for me
4 Days, Sent to screeners Thursday, Interview Invite Sunday night.
me too, but I knew my interview went horribly bad.. so i was actually expecting a flat out rejection haha.. I was actually really surprised to be on the waiting list because the interview went badly.. I learned a lot from the interview and then later ones went well i think.
I interviewed 9/24 too though.. guess they didn't like us that day (i'm wondering if you had the same interviewers as me)

I called she said they're booked through December.. When did you schedule your interview?
jl how did you check? did you have to call into the office?
hey for anyone who interviewed, did anyone take a 2x2 picture with them?
They'll take your picture when you get there and check in- I wouldn't worry about bringing one.
They did not do this for my interview session.
I didn't bring a picture, nor did I have a picture taken when I was there. I thought the pic was included with your secondary app, but I can't remember.
I think some random whino unaffiliated with TCMC just took your picture bro. scary scary
I scheduled mine for the morning of January 28th... kind of a ways off, but I'm just happy I got an interview 😀 So, I called the admissions office and got my name put on a waiting list, but i'm interested how jl13 got an earlier spot???
Interview for Jan 28th as well😀
Do any current TCMC students have advice on how you selected your regional campus? After seeing the presentations at interview day, I didn't have a good sense of how the placements differed. I've never been to Wilkes-Barre or Williamsport, so any if anyone has thoughts on what it's like to live in these places compared to Scranton, or what the programs are like there, I'd love to hear them.

So when I went to schedule my interview a few spots popped up that I couldn't enroll in via the portal because they were within ten days. I called the admissions office and they were thrilled to have someone pick up the the spot. I probably got a spot for someone that had recently cancelled, so KEEP CHECKING THE PORTAL if you want to try and move up your date.
Does anyone know that the OOS number of admission look like?

Hi all. I scheduled an interview with the school in early February. A waysssss off. Anyone know how many times this school interviews per month? Is it only a few times per month or what? And what should I do to maybe get an earlier date? Thanks!
I know that last year's class is somewhere around 70% PA residents. As for this year, I don't know any statistics, but they did take me even though I have no PA ties, so I wouldn't be discouraged if you are not from PA.
I'm supposed to get their decision this week and I'm getting nervous! The suspense is killing me

ugh same! (interviewed 10/8) . . . super nervous, this is the only interview invite I've gotten.
hey guys, i forget. you go to your interview, then the following Friday the committee meets to review your file. do you get notice of your acceptance/waitlist/rejection on that friday following the interview? i guess not based on sailor? since you interviewed awhile back on 10/8 and it's now 10/25.
They meet on Tuesdays, at the interview she said every Tuesday, the email said every other. I believe they review strictly in chronological order, and at my interview (10/8) they were a week behind. Hope that helps.
Yeah, I know they said something about Tuesday meetings. They told my 10/15 interview group that we'd probably hear back in 2 weeks, but it might be 3 weeks. That's why I'm hoping to get some good Scranton-y news this week! 🙂
yeah daisy, I'd give it another week or so since none of us who interviewed the week before have heard back... hope this helps, the waiting game is bummer. good luck all!
ah woops, i thought they said Friday. Maybe they did or I misheard. Well it was a great school so I'm hoping to get in!
Ahh how exciting! Good luck to the 10/8 interviewers. I'm a little bummed that I probably have to wait another week... I was hoping to know by Halloween!
daisy has your app been sent to the reviewers?

Yeah, it was sent last Wednesday (10/20) in the morning.
I submitted July 9th and was marked complete August 13th.
Waitlistedddddddddd :cry:
At least it's not officially a rejection yet! Good luck to everyone else.
