I've been a longtime lurker here, but wanted to get the ball rolling and say I just got the acceptance letter today! It's postmarked 2/19, and I live only a few hours from Atlanta.
The portals should change tomorrow afternoon, as previously predicted.
This is my first acceptance and I couldn't be happier
Good luck to you all!!!

Thank you so much!! I interviewed late January. I'm sure you'll get good news soon - they did tell us that pretty much everyone who interviews at Emory gets accepted somewhere!
Just a follow up on my own post.... My roommate apparently did get her acceptance letter today. Yay her :/
I woke up, read the past few posts, and immediately ran down to my mailbox. The letter was there!!!! This was the last acceptance I was waiting on and I couldn't be happier!!!!!! Interviewed 2/8, I guess interviewing so late wasn't the kiss of death that I thought it would be!

Has your portal been updated?
Not yet!
I just checked again and the admission offer tab is now there. Portals are updated!
Thanks for the update! Looks like the wait continues on my end. Congratulations on your acceptance!
Anyone who interviewed in the last couple of weeks hear today?
Nope didn't hear anything, interviewed in early February. Seems like just @aalphieee has. N of 1 isn't burden of proof right so hopefully there's still a chance?
+1. Also interviewed early February and nothing.

Confirmed
Yep. Except it's March 7th.
Is that the one where everyone finds out accepted or waitlist?
From my understanding, March 7th is the last day that acceptances will be sent out and then alternate emails will roll out through March 30th.
So if we didn't get accepted, we can still be accepted on March 7 or we'll be waitlisted/rejected March 17? Or is it only people who are interviewing this week that could be accepted on March 7?
"Emory SOM: Interview Season has Closed" and I was rejected... Sucks, was hoping for some love from my Alma Mater. Good luck to everyone who got an interview!
+1 ... The season continues to be long, grueling, and torturous! Good luck everyone.
rejected today
Pre-II or post interview?
Pre interview!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but pretty sure any rejections now are pre-II. Sorry to hear people are getting the rejection letters, it's never easy. Good luck with all other applications you're waiting on! Don't let it get you down!

+1 The school with almost the longest silence for me!
They don't waste admin time. Best wishes to all going to Atlanta.
They finally made it official. Rejected this morning.
To everyone who didn't get to interview at Emory, I wish you all the best of luck at your chosen / future schools! (Looks like a couple of you have some great options.)
To everyone still waiting: How does Emory rank on your lists? Would you hold out on the waitlist if this time (knock on wood) is a no-go?

Hey all, just wanted to say congrats to all who have been accepted, and to those that are waiting to hear back from your interviews, keep your heads up!!
I was just wondering if Emory does a Second Look Weekend for its selected students? I know this is pretty commonplace at other schools, but I haven't seen anything about this for Emory. Thanks!!

Yup! It's limited to 25 or so students if I recall, so you're encouraged to only go if you really need help deciding between schools.
There's also a "housing weekend" later in the spring for students who have decided on Emory to come check out housing options and meet classmates/potential roommates, and that's not limited!
Hi all:
Anyone heard of March 7th decisions? Thanks
Anyone heard of March 7th decisions? Thanks
Man, did not receive an acceptance from emory (i interviewed in october), also my alma mater. I will put myself on the waitlist but I am now emotionally detaching from them and now focusing on my state school acceptance. Should I put high hopes on the wait list? Do a lot of people get off Emory's waitlist?
btw should I send Emory a letter of intent?

Does anyone have any info about the second look coming up? I've only received the invitation and that was like a month ago
I was accepted in November but didn't receive any information regarding Second Look... was it in an email or something? I'm expecting them to send something soon since their last official week of reviewing applications just came and went
If they have send out letters yesterday, then its too early yet

They just updated my portal!! So excited!!!
Congrats! Looks like a rejection for me. Hope others still waiting get better news!
+1. Congrats to all who were accepted.
If our portal does not change, is that a rejection?
The way I understand it, all straight-out acceptances have been handed out at this point. March 30th we'll find out if we're wait listed or rejected.
