Don't stress yet, only one person has posted, so they could be pulling our leg (no offense @BicycleGuy, you just can't trust people on the internet)

For sure. I kind of regret posting now, since it doesn't really do anything for the SDN community other than increase anxiety. Sorry about this folks! I interviewed in early - mid January, fwiw. I'm sure more calls are going out as we speak! Good luck to everyone still waiting!

if the above poster is correct that an official e-mail will go out Monday then I would think (hope) they are giving interviewers a few days to make their calls, which is what I believe happened back in Jan.
 
Accepted about an hour ago! Called by ES. Interviewed in September, deferred in January

Yeah, just to ease everyone's worries. I never received a call when I was accepted in Jan, so don't stress too much!

Congrats! Was the call from an unknown number? My interviewer has the same initials and I have a missed call around the same time from a private number. The neuroticism is too real lol

Thank you!! She called from a BU number (617 area code).
 
are they calling during the weekend? cause if emails are coming out monday, I'd assume everyone has been called then?

There were people who were accepted in January without receiving a call and the same looks to be true from last year’s thread so I would not give up hope just yet!

Does anyone know if our status changes in the application portal prior to communication from Adcom?

Status changes haven't happened yet for this round for acceptances
 
Hey, sorry if this is a random question with the stress of acceptances, but does anyone knows where we are supposed to send our last transcripts to?

I sent mine to the admissions office using the address they provided for our tuition deposit.

Again what a few people had stated early but it looks like not everyone gets a call to be accepted. I just looked at last year's thread and there were a couple of people who just got an email update that they were accepted with no phone call.
