Is there any specific date that we're supposed to hear back by? Getting so nervous, haven't heard anything since my mid-October interview.

Everyone will know by 3/15 of decision status, but I think the last round of acceptances will be next Friday.

You think there will be another wave of acceptances?
 
In past years, it seems like they had a few acceptances go out along with the waitlist. Either way, fingers crossed for next week.

Yeah I don't know for certain, I'm just worried about it. I interviewed mid-October, so seeing interviews from February getting accepted concerns me.

Given how few mcg interviews and how large the class is, I feel like there's are a lot of acceptances missing on here, particularly from those with high stats. Anyone else think similarly?

I am hoping there are spots still available and that's why they haven't sent out waitlist emails yet. But I also know of others who got in and they don't have an SDN account or go on this forum, so I'm not sure how many spots would be open still.

I feel like my interviews could not have gone any better. Does anyone have the MSAR on #Accepted total? I saw it somewhere and it was something like 500+ for 250 seats.

I have the US News and World Report Info of the post-interview acceptance rate info. What I have says for (I think last year) 546 interviews there's 376 accepted and 230 matriculate for a 68.9 post interview acceptance rate. So, there's a good chance even if y'all haven't been accepted yet, especially if you have good stats and felt the interview went well. Also, from what I hear there's a ton of movement on the waitlist. Good luck to everyone!

Accepted yesterday after interviewing way back in the beginning of September. I'm not sure why it took quite so long.

I think there will definitely be more acceptances still so don't lose hope! As far as "particularly from those with high stats" I don't know what you mean, a lot of the people who have given their stats seem to have high ones. I think that statement is unecessary as I'm sure that everyone who has received an acceptance has worked very hard and deserves their spot.

I might go, but I'm curious why MCG's second look is only for minority students.

So am I wrong in assuming that the waitlisted students will be notified sometime within the next week?

I'm not sure. I called not too long ago and was told that the committee is still meeting, and that if you haven't heard back yet, you're still under consideration and should hear back by early April.

Hello everyone,

For those who have been accepted, do you know when we receive our campus assignment? Do you know when we receive our financial letter? Thanks.

I also received my assignment one or two weeks ago, and I also don't know anything about when we hear back about financial aid/scholarships/etc.
 
Is there a revisit thing tomorrow? I saw someone posted a picture in this thread of a calendar that said that but I havent seen an email nor have I found anything on their website about that.

Does anyone know if the next wave will be tomorrow? Also for those accepted, did you receive an email/phone call/both?

Good luck to everyone!

If tomorrow is decision day then good luck to everyone! I'm working overnight tonight so I'll most likely be asleep when/if emails go out.

Nothing for me, but didn't MCG say we'd here by the 15th? At least we won't have to wait until next Friday.
