is today at ~6:10pm the time its being released for sure?


I have heard rumors that they aren't going to release anything until tomorrow. I so hope that those rumors are wrong. I desperately would love to know like...NOW. 😱

Any feedback from people who have already interviewed?

Agree completely with docbrill! My interviewer was relaxed without being insultingly easy. I got a lot of "behavioral questions" (you know..."tell me about a time that you saw a need for improvement and did something about it," etc...). Also, my interviewer was an alum (never even worked at VCU bar residency and may even be retired now), which surprised me but was a neat way to do things. I think VCU wants their interviewees to feel really at home, though, which I totally did throughout the whole day.
 
i guess we will have to wait and see! t-minus 4.5 hours!!! (your stats are better than mine according to your mdapps so maybe you have a better chance! :luck: to us both 🙂)
 
I'm hoping its today! less than 2 hours if it is...but they did say they like to call people to let us know so the status change probably wouldn't come first. Also none of my status changes came during the weekend so my guess is we wont here until tomorrow =(
 
It will actually be a miracle if I am accepted this early, so I don't hold much hope. However, for some reason I am really nervous!!

I just want the anxiety to be over, just let us know today, VCU! I want to be able to concentrate on my upcoming interviews!! :laugh:

Sucks! Becasue they said... "We anticipate making offers October 16, December 15, February 1, and March 16."

I guess anticipate is the key word!
 
"The committee's file review indicates that they are interested in your candidacy. However, due to the increase in the applicant pool this year, it is clear we MAY be unable to interview all the candidates at your priority score. If we do find that we are unable to grant an interview you will be notified by e-mail in March."

got the email last night to check my app status and saw this. hope its good news. has anyone else received this status?

good luck everyone.
 
this is the "may" status if you go back and read through the rest of the thread

This is the "May Status" people have been talking about. A couple pages back someone made a google spreadsheet where people have recorded if they have received this status and whether they have been offered interviews. If you are IS, this is fantastic news. If you are OOS then it is less certain what your fate will be. Good luck!
