pretty sure they don't have an input. I feel like they repeated to us that it wasn't part of the decision at all
The students told us that during lunch they were evaluating us

I don't remember being told this.. Are you sure? That doesn't seem likely, especially since temple has so many ways of evaluating us already
Plus I've never heard of a school doing that
I heard that most schools do this? I interviewed a long time ago so maybe they aren't doing it anymore. did they break you guys up into small groups at lunch?
I could have sworn the group of students I had said that they were *not* evaluating us.
Has anyone who interviewed mid-January heard back yet?
Also, we were told by our student tour guides that they were evaluating us on my interview day.

They didn't say anything on my interview day. *Inner neuroticism intensifies.*
Same here!
Is Temple receptive to pre-II in the area emails? I will be in Philadelphia during the first week of March
I called and they just said to shoot them an email and they will put it in my file!
Interesting, I called them this afternoon and they were pretty solid about 'in the area' messages not helping with anything
maybe I just caught the wrong person at the office

I am thinking of applying for the ACMS post-bac program here at Temple right now. Any thoughts or comments?
Its a non-degree granting 1 year program
I considered it, but for me, it wasn't enough to pay for a program and not have even a certificate out of it. Rutgers is equivalent in price, equally reputable, you get a degree (MBS), and they have great stats for people who want to matriculate to medical school

What day did you interview (I also interviewed end of Jan)....and did you get a letter without an email?
I interviewed on 1/26 and I received my wait list letter without an email...I'm so disappointed; I really loved Temple
yep have been researching but have not yet seen anyone who has applied during the application cycle so I was just wondering if anyone here has
I was recently waitlisted. I interviewed on January 27
Does anyone know if there is parking available for interviews?

Did you find out from email or letter?
II today!! OOS 🙂 Does anyone know if these interviews are for waitlist spots at this point?
Congrats! When are they interviewing until?
Thanks! 🙂 When I was scheduling mine they only had 3/2 and 3/3 available and no dates in April. Maybe all the other days were taken already? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Parking on interview day, yes no maybe???

8/25 hahaha quite a while ago. They emailed me 2 weeks ago asking for my fall and spring 2015 grades though.
I interviewed 1/27 and haven't heard back.. I see that people have gotten put on the CCL for that interview period, but has anyone been accepted? Also, for those that interview in November and heard back in February with acceptances, did you hear back before or after the CCLs were given out to people who interviewed in that same time period??
I'm with you. I interviewed 1/12 and still haven't heard. I'm hoping it's a good thing like you're speculating. I think they said to call if it's been 6-8 weeks or something so we're still in the waiting period. I'm at 6 weeks and two days today, so hopefully I find out soon.
Did anyone notice a status change to "under review" from "interview complete" after their interview? I've been waiting a while and noticed this change recently. Does this happen for everyone or should I be expecting a letter in the mail?
mine also changed sometime today
Mine actually changed today, as well, to "under review." Anyone know what this could mean?
I was under review, then interview complete, then I was waitlisted a bit ago and I just went back on today to upload and update letter and it now says under review again. So for myself it just means that I'm continuing to be reviewed as someone on the waitlist. I'm hoping for your case it's not the same!
Anyone know if they're still sending out II here?
I checked my portal earlier today and it was back to "interview complete"...now it says "under review" again. I check my portal way too often and am beginning to think I am dreaming these changes, either way good luck to both of you because I am hoping this means news is coming our way!
For some reason, I feel like a few of us may hear back today. Has anyone heard back or gotten any news??

nopeeeee haven't received an II
Just checked my application status out of curiosity and it changed at some point today from "under review" to "interview complete" again. Not sure what this means, but I'm hoping we get some news soon.
I meant for those who already interviewed.
Did anyone else get a merit scholarship offer? Wondering how common they are.
