If we interviewed well over two weeks ago should we assume we are not going to be receiving an acceptance call? Based on reading this thread things are looking awfully bleak for us April interviewees who haven't heard back
That's not necessarily true, they could still admit you on re review. But I would definitely get my re-app ready just in case if you aren't already admitted
Thank you for letting us know - it gives some hope to those that have not received II’s that we might get one. Congratulations on getting off the waitlist.
They will email an offer letter with instructions
Was there any award or financial aid information on the letter?
I was going to send an email confirming acceptance and say the date I mailed the check in the email
Alright cool. Same. Thanks
There will be another email with that information

How are we supposed to refer to this school now? Do we just call it Hackensack? SHU?
Congrats!!

From a previous post, someone mentioned that the shu grad quota doesn't apply this year if that's what you mean

I personally don’t recall any SHU undergrads/graduates at my interview.
At my interview on May 1st there were quite a few SHU undergrads and graduates.
So.....what happens if my flight gets canceled due to weather......sitting here on the tarmac the night before my interview.....like 
I am so sorry!!! I hope the weather improves soon!! would call them and send an email immediately! What part of the country are you located in? Would driving be a possibility? Could you ask the airline to get you on a red eye flight/early morning flight/flight from a nearby airport?So.....what happens if my flight gets canceled due to weather......sitting here on the tarmac the night before my interview.....like

The bright side is that the interview starts at 1030. Try as best possible to get a red eye flight or early morning. If flying into JFK or Newark, you can get to the school in 30 min .

Also the interviews start around midday. So call ahead of time and possibly you can show for the interview at least.
Update flying into LaGuardia, 10;08am. Will try to reschedule for Thursday if possible. Otherwise I'm coming in hot. 
Best way to get to Newark from there? Train, bus? Taxi?

My guess is Uber.
Best part was that it wasn't the last flight of the evening. The last flight took off and left as scheduled. 😛

What weather issue was it? It can’t still be snowing over there right?
July 13th
Hi, I've recently confirmed my intentions for Hackensack. I was wondering if anyone was interested in finding housing with me. I have been having a difficult time finding a good place to live affordably. Feel free to PM me and I can give ya my personal email. Thank you!
There is a housing group on fb!
Do you mind posting the link? Thank you
So what’s the concensus on if we do not hear back the Friday following our interview?? Like for someone (me lol) who interviews 5/1 and didn’t hear anything... what’s the deal with that person?
wondering about this as well
I heard back 8 days exactly! Reading through posts by others if they interviewed on Tuesday they got in the following Wednesday, if they interviewed on Thursday they got in the next Friday. This is just my general observation, totally might not be the case!
If you didn’t hear back within this time frame, I would assume that they just put your application on hold, and will get back to you after they finish interviewing everyone. Don’t give up hope yet, the class isn’t full yet 🙂

How do you know the class isn’t full? Just curious.
A recent "insider" said that about 45 had been admitted. I'm guessing they are close to 50 now.

So there’s around 10 spots left?! That’s also hoping that the spots for the seton grads were filled too otherwise it’ll be even less. I wonder if everyone else who’s still interviewing is basically just interviewing for a WL spot or is just going to be put on hold
Well people have and will withdraw.
1. Seton Hall quota doesn't apply this year. Probably not next year either, as they're focused on putting together the best initial few classes first.
2. 50 acceptances probably means like 30-35 commits at best, even assuming the higher-than-average yield that some posters have proposed due to it being late in the cycle. Some interviewees I know of are so exceptional that I assume they're clearly hunting for scholarships, and if the financial package isn't strong they're not going to go. Then, some commits will withdraw if/when they get into a more preferable school WL.
3. I don't know how trustworthy the thirdhand account of an anonymous poster on SDN is, even if he/she is telling the truth as far as they are aware. Facts get lost in translation.

1)What quota are you referring to? The shu grad one?
2) this makes me feel better. I’m guessing they’ll have to give out at least 1.5-2x more offers
They have parking on the street as soon as you enter the main campus.
Sent from my Moto G (5S) Plus using SDN mobile
A faculty member from the SOM called accepted students to welcome them!
They mentioned that 55 offers were given, but ~35 students confirmed they will be attending for sure. There will be movement for those 20 or so remaining spots. So if you interviewed or are waiting to interview, there are still seats that remain! Best of luck 😍
