I saw the same thing. I haven't heard anything, but I imagine they'll tell us at the interview. I think it's defintiely a possibility though.

I saw on some past forums people heard as early as October 15th. On our interview day they said they're shooting for October but could be November.

Yeah yesterday they definitely said they were aiming for October this year, so fingers crossed!
 
II as well!! IS, LM low-mid 60s, lots of experience. I was scheduled for 10/29 too, has anyone on here had a date they couldn't make and asked to change their date?

Congrats! When was your completion date? 🙂

Yes, I was initially offered 10/1 but had a conflict and will now be interviewing 10/29.
 
Do you guys think it would reflect negatively on an applicant to not attend the reception the night before the interview? It would be really difficult for me to get there in time...

I'm sure they are understanding about people having to travel from far away and not getting there in time, and I highly doubt anything at the reception has any influence on their admission decisions

I may go but just to get food and bounce as quickly as possible, definitely won't be wearing 'business casual'. I'll be traveling a lot that day (God this place is the hardest to get to of my interviews so far), so I don't think I'll be in the mood to do anything but just rest in my room and sleep. I'm sure not going won't count against you, it wouldn't be fair.

I have an interview the day before and can't get into Roanoke until midnight. Didn't think this process was gonna be this stressful
 
I have been meaning to ask this for almost a month now and kept getting busy -- for those of you at the first interview in August do you remember if they specified when in October we would hear? I was re-reading last year's thread and they didn't hear until November. Does that mean we could be looking at late October for notifications?

I remember them saying October 15th and having that date in the presentation, so I'm thinking we should hear tomorrow. But this process is so unpredictable, so you never really know.

I doubt they'll make calls over the weekend 🙁 But it could be any time next week.... Or the week after. So, yes, you never really know.
 
Has anyone heard anything?
