[coquito]

I'm still waiting for the packet, too. Hope it comes soon!

Me too! Nothing in the mail yet. Accepted on 10/16...

This may already be somewhere on this thread, but...

Does anyone know how many applicants UC interviews v. accepts? I can't find it online.

You can find the number they interview on the MSAR. Dean Manuel said they accept around 325.

I believe the number of interviewees was something like 650, and I think MedPR is right about #accepted, so it sounds like about 50% are ultimately accepted.

Thanks! That's encouraging.

Hi!

I interview in early November and I wanted to know what people thought of their interview? Also for those who are accepted, how long was there between your interview and acceptance?

Thanks!

Interviewed 10/17, accepted 10/24. Thought the MMI went well, felt confident the entire way through and always kept a smile. Some of the prompts went better than others, but was confident throughout.

Best of luck!

 

[kerrym00re]

does anyone know if they are doing acceptances today? was under the impression that if you interviewed 10/17 that you would hear back either 10/24 or 10/31 but i could be mistaken...

😕

 

[blondiellie]

pachewisc I'll be there 11/9 too! I'm supposed to get there at 7:45 am!!! AH! Which I think means I do my MMI first before the rest of the day. I'm kind of ok with this since I'd rather get it over with.

 

[eggs13]

Just interviewed here today! I enjoyed the MMI although I honestly have no idea how I did! Excited to find out next Tuesday!!!

That was my impression as well, nothing here yet either

at our interview today, we were told we would receive our decisions next Tuesday, after the committee meets on Monday. I'm sure you guys will find out then as well.

I suspect that you are correct, although I did think that the decisions were meant to be released today... Oh well. What's one more week...

 

[IncognitoGuy]

Accepted today! 😍

 

[sportsman1ac]

Accepted today! 😍

CONGRATS! I got accepted too!

 

[CrawlWalkRun]

Would those excepted mind sharing how long they have to wait after they were complete to get an interview invite, whether they are IS or OOS, and their stats? Thanks!

Accepted today! 😍

Congrats guys!!

A little behind compared to most people but my application became complete yesterday (10-31). How long did it typically take everyone to get the II after they were complete?

 

[dysentery]

Accepted today. Submitted a while ago, interview on 10/17.

37Q, 3.7, IS

Been waiting almost 1.5 months. U Cincinnati will surely deliver!

Sadly, I hear there's a fairly exponential growth in response times for schools as you become complete later and later. At this point Cinci probably has thousands of applications sitting on their desk that need to make their way to the admissions committee still, as compared to those who completed earlier were likely decided on much faster. For reference, I completed on 7/19-ish and got an II on 9/20.

Alright I figured it would be a while. Thanks for the help!

Approaching two months now, get on my level.

 

[ComfortCreature]

I just submitted my secondary today. Late in the game, I know. Let's see how long this'll take. I'm estimating 2-3 months...

 

[eggs13]

I sent them a post interview update letter last night that Dr. Manuel mentioned many people send (to update the AdCom with additions to the AMCAS). He said they needed it by today if it were going to be put in our file before the AdCom meeting on Monday. I never received a response to my email--should I assume they got it or should I call to double check?

Just curious if anyone else has done this as well and gotten an email response!

I submitted one as well and haven't gotten an email response, I just submitted mine a few hours ago though.

 

[doctorwho101]

Decided to join the horde applying here! Good luck to all!

 

[eggs13]

getting excited for our decisions to come out tomorrow!!

 

[eggs13]

man, i thought we would have heard by now...!!

 

[kickster]

+1...refreshrefreshrefreshrefresh. Dean Manuel said that we would hear back Tuesday morning right? Or did I just imagine that it was in the morning?

 

[ilikevegetables]

Best of luck everyone! Hope everyone hears good news soon!

 

[PJacqz]

At your interview, did you guys have to ask when you would find out acceptance decisions? Or did he just tell you?

 

[GiraffeMode]

He just told us the date.

 

[eggs13]

😕 welp, maybe tomorrow??

 

[kickster]

Looking back through the thread, it seems like he told some people one date and then they heard the next day. If not tomorrow then definitely next week! Although I think another week of waiting may kill me....it's so much easier when a school gives you a 2 week range that's 8 weeks away.

for tomorrow!

 

[eggs13]

so frustrating!!!!

 

[kickster]

Seems like nobody heard...because I can't imagine that none of the 36 that were supposed to hear are on SDN...

 

[vayntraubinator]

so frustrating!!!!

If you paid attention to the 10/31 interview, you would have known that they said it would take 3 weeks. 😉

If I'm not mistaken, we were told we would get a status change Tuesday morning. We were told to have any update letters in before Monday for the AdCom meeting before decisions were released in Tuesday. I guess nothing to do but wait!

 

[eggs13]

Accepted!!! Interviewed 10/31

 

[vayntraubinator]

Do accepted applicants have to pay a fee to reserve a seat once they are accepted?
