IS complete mid-August and received II at the beginning of September if that helps.

I don't think the date of completion even matters here TBH - at my interview, I met a girl who got her II in mid-August for that day. I got an invite to the same day a month after her.

Do you happen to know if UMass accepts updates?

 

[imtheman25]

Do you happen to know if UMass accepts updates?

Not sure, but would not hurt to send in updates to their office directly. In the past, they would upload it to your application.

Not to be that person but "Massachusetts" is spelled incorrectly in the title of this thread.

 

[corgicuddler]

Anyone receive any post-II decisions lately?

This is why I can never find it when searching...

 

[DRACARYS3]

just called the office and I was told the committee meets every other Thursday and today they are meeting. If you think about it it makes sense they met on the 12th and people posted the 13th and 16th they were accepted. Now who they are presenting is another thing. if people interviewed the first week in September and were notified when was the next date and we can figure it out? Anyone know. Mine was 10/11 there must be one before and my guess that is the day they are on and those people should be notified next. Next meeting is November 9th which is probably my day.Hope this helps can someone let us all know the September interview date please?

 

[DRACARYS3]

are there specific days of the week that they send out acceptances?

yes friday and mondays

Hello! I’m wondering what the culture is like at this school. What made it stand out to you that’s hard to tell just from looking at on-paper characteristics?

Thanks for your time!

Hands down the comradeship. The ability to talk to faculty and get to know them on a persona level was enormous for me. Also, cost was important to me.

Also, does anyone know how many students are invited to interview for a PURCH spot? I can't find the number of interviewees on the site; I only know there are 25 spots.
