Has anyone gotten interview invites recently?
Thought I'd bump this thread to see if anyone has had any updates with their applications. I know that they're just coming back from break but I'm getting anxious about whether or not I'll receive an interview.
+1is anyone in the same boat as me? I submitted my primaries august 21 and my status page still says no status. Think there's any chance secondaries are still being sent out?

I know there's hope, but I'm still nervous. They did say it would take up to 4 weeks to review the secondary, but its been 7.5 -__-
Just finished week 1 of this block.
I know last year they sent out secondaries all the way up til May (I know people in my class who got a secondary and interview in May and obviously got in). Just stay positive.
Right now there's an interview tmo and one the 2nd week of february I believe. More will be scheduled when necessary. Good luck kids.
Got the call a few minutes ago for the interview!! I'm so excited as this seems to be my only chance to stay in California. Its like a dream really. So excited
Just got an interview invite this morning!!
Received a call to tell me personally if I can make it for Feb 4.
I submitted my secondary app at the deadline.
My stats are 3.5cum 3.9 science 30O(8VR/9/PS/13BS)
URM, disadvantaged background, some volunteering and research
What date did you submit the secondary?

Does anyone know when we're supposed to hear back about admissions decisions? During the interview they said that at the earliest, it would be sometime in January. Just wondering if anyone has heard news about an exact date or updated estimate.
When did you interview if I may ask? I interviewed Jan. 7 and the word was "we are a small program and it will probably take a while"
Thought I'd bump this thread with a question. For those of you that received an interview invite, how long was it before you got the email with all the pre interview materials? My interview is coming up in a few weeks and I haven't gotten anything in the mail yet and I'd like to start preparing. I'm thinking I should call, but I don't want to seem like a bother.
I interviewed in November
i received the email about an hour or so after the phone call.
you might want to check out your spam folder since the email was sent with a name of a person not the school

During the interview I asked 2 of the 1st years and 1 second year how long it took the school to decide on them, all 3 had to wait till June to find out they were accepted. Looks like it will be a long wait before we hear anything.
When is the last day they give out interviews?
Sorry but that I do not know.
The last scheduled interview right now is February 4th. Last year they had one more interview after the last scheduled one in May. Don't know if that is happening this year. For what it's worth, 3 people in my class were part of the May interview.

I wanted to let you know that when I got the call for the interview they did let me know that after February the next one would be in March. Not sure which day. Maybe they have it planned but is not scheduled yet.
can anyone expand a bit on the structure of their interview?
Does anyone know the stats of those that receive a secondary application from Drew-UCLA how many are actually awarded an interview?
When it comes to Drew-UCLA, I don't think stats plays that much of a role into the process. I think they're looking for people who they feel best fit their mission regardless of what that person's numbers.
Oops sorry I didn't mean test scores and GPA but how many of the secondaries received how many do they interview during the application season.

Thanks "junsul" and "dancingthrulife" for the info. This is indeed a great program. The close knit nature even shows through in their interview format.... which is awesome. All the best to all "class of 2016" applicants!"Quote from 2010 Thread CDU" Credit to DancingThruLife
"I also interviewed this past weekend.
It was a veryyyyyyyy (I don't think I can emphasize this enough) relaxed interview. Everyone was very nice and friendly, willing to answer any questions you asked them.
I thought I was going to get grilled on my stats/application since it's open file, but my faculty interviewer quickly flipped through my file and made it more of a conversation. My student interviewer was also very conversational, though I heard others saying that their student interviewers went down a more formal list of questions.
I would LOVE to attend CDU. My only complaint is that there was no tour component, but you will eventually find out what it looks like if you end up going.
Point of emphasis: they REALLY want to make sure that the 24 selected students will mesh well with each other and with the other CDU students. There is a group interview where current CDU students observe (and evaluate?) your interactions. There's also a (handwritten) essay component, but it's not too difficult.
Overall, everyone was very down to earth which speaks volumes about the students and administration there. Anyone can PM me if they have any more questions. 🙂"
Looks like they can send out secondaries all the way until May. It seems cruel to make people wait that long.Are they still sending out secondaries??
