Anxious for my post interview decision (this week). Does anyone know if they give responses on Wednesdays? What time usually? Email or call?

Sorry for being neurotic BTW...🙁

I received mine on a Tuesday at 3 PM and it was via email.

When was your interview in relation to that tuesday? (Week/two weeks before) if you don't mind me asking
I interviewed the first day so it was a little more than 2 weeks due to the Oct. 15th acceptance window opening. From what I've heard from all of my colleagues, everyone hears back after 2 weeks
 
I interviewed on a Friday and received my decision via email on a Thursday almost exactly two weeks after my interview
 
I think I have refreshed the mail app on my phone maybe 1000 times since Tuesday honestly. The anticipation is killing me. Think we'll get em today?

Honestly, probably not. From what I've read it's usually 2 weeks after the interview. But it could literally be at anytime!! I feel like I've also read they always send them out at 3pm but who knows! Think it'd be overkill to call :laugh:

Last weeks acceptances came out on a Thursday was the only thing that got my hopes up. I'm banking on your 3 pm theory for now haha

Waiting to hear back after you've been placed on hold like..

my e-mail has been refreshed every 10 minutes since noon. I still think they go out at 3pm. I'm thinking tomorrow will be the day. We will see!

I called today and they said "by the end of the week" not sure if it was just being safe or if they are just that behind due to holidays and such. In any case this wait is killer. It's been over two weeks since my interview. I'm itching to hear back.

Maybe if I call too, they'll get on it! 😉 ugh we're so desperate :laugh:
 
Anyone have any advice on when I should send an update letter? I just finished up my SMP ( I still had two semesters left when I initially submitted my app) and added some new volunteer/ work experience. My fear is with the holidays coming up and the delays everyone is experiencing in their post-interview news, my update will be lost in the shuffle so I'm not sure if I should send it right before the holidays or after. Any thoughts? I would really appreciate it guys!!

I would wait until your fall grades are released, if they aren't already.

Anyone know how we go about sending updates? Email? There isn't anything in the applicant portal that allows for updates...

You can e-mail them and they should take them. I sent them a PDF update letter via e-mail a few weeks ago and they replied back saying they added it to my file. It did take them a while to reply back though.
