Yes, they will email you a confirmation like a week before, and about three days before the interview, one of the students will send you an email about the pre-interview social.

I got an interview invite this week, complete mid-September, OOS.

Could anyone share what email the II invite comes from?
Haha what is a soft rejection? A hold?
So from what I've read on here, I think it's a rejection via their online portal? But I guess I'm not positive that that's what it is.

From past threads it doesn't look like they reject anyone until spring
Is there an update in the portal when payment has been processed? I submitted payment on 7/24 but have not received any confirmation...
Yeah, I didn't get an email but my portal updated with "We have received your CU Online Secondary Application payment. Your application is under review by the Admissions Committee."
Took it 25 days to process.
Any details from someone who has already interviewed? How did it go? Typical questions?

Anyone accepted yet today?
super casual interview style, but pretty standard questions; "when did you fail?", "how do you learn best?", etc., and then kinda going through your application activities and elaborating. as mentioned previously, the interviewers are all volunteers so they're not necessarily knowledgeable about school statistics, just be careful with the questions that you come up with for them. anything else you want to know?
I'm wondering the same thing! I'm so impatiently waiting for any news at all :/
I wonder if they are not releasing acceptances today.

I interviewed on Friday and they told us they were planning on releasing acceptances today for the prior groups
I was told that as well, I'll stay glued to my phone haha.
Like ALL the prior interview groups?? Or they didn't specify?? I want to go here so bad!!!!!

They didn't really specifiy. Just made it clear that it wouldn't be our group (10/14)haha. And I know, same here! Such an incredible program
It seems unlikely that not a single accepted person used sdn. But then again, you never know!

They do not accept updates post-interview. Not sure what their policy is pre-interview.

Anyone heard todaY?
I have not heard anything. At this point I just want to know if acceptances were sent out. If I got news from them I was going to cancel an interview. Looks like I may need to buy a flight.
On my interview day, they seemed to imply that they would be sending all notifications (rejections, wait list, and acceptances) right away unlike in past years when rejections and WL were sent at the end of the cycle. Did anyone else get that impression?

Looking back on the threads from previous years, it seems as if people hear ~1 month after their interview date. Although I'm sure that won't keep anyone (me) from staring at their phone all day

Same! When did you guys interview?
I interviewed in early Oct and I too got the email.

It seems statistically unlikely that no one would have reported an acceptance if they did indeed go out Monday. However, I'm so confused since I was under the impression a decision would be released. Someone should call haha.
Their tracker also has not been updated since Oct 13 so hard to tell as well.
Great, thanks! Good luck to you!
Got that email and saw "CU School of Medicine" in the email title... not as bad as the NYU Twitter Chat emails, but talk about getting excited for nothing.... Unless we're accepted and they just haven't let us know yet (wishful thinking).
Has everyone who has interviewed been receiving emails other than this one? I have received nothing so far and I'm starting to wonder if they actually have my email address.
So maybe it's not going to everyone who interviewed?

Didn't you say you got this email? This is the only one I've received and I interviewed.

Nope, didn't get an email. Interviewed in September.

Interesting. Did you get the emails for interviews? Did you change your email in AMCAS since then?
Yeah, the last email I got was from the Office of Diversity and Inclusion. That's why I'm saying this email probably isn't going to everyone who interviewed. Don't mean to get anyone's hopes up or dash them, but I never got an email about the advisory colleges.
Is there any brave soul among us who would like to call the Office? It's strange that they haven't released their decisions yet. Or is everyone who's been accepted too busy celebrating to come to SDN?

Was that the one about the student meetup the night before the interview? I bet it's just a glitch and I'm sure it doesn't mean anything.
