They had a few spots left for the November date but I personally couldn’t make that one so the only date left was late January
Oooh I see, yeah you’re peobably right. I mean it makes sense with a deadline of November for the secondary and screening for the primary. Wish you the best of luck on your interview!
What do you mean there is a deadline of November for the secondary? Do you think those who did not receive secondaries at this point are totally out of the game? When was the deadline to submit your secondary? November 1st or November 30th? Thank you!
The email I received with the secondary indicated that all application materials must be postmarked by November 21,2018.
e e
So anyone who hasn't received a secondary yet is DOA? They stop interviewing in January? Welp

I highly highly doubt that! The last interview date as of now is January, meaning people who are currently receiving interviews are booked for January! But there will most definitely be an interview date in February and maybe even one in March. In previous years, Drew has had 5 interview dates (September, October, November, January, and February). They have only scheduled 3 as of now (October, November, January). The number of interviewees per interview date has not changed. It is unlikely that the number of interviewees over the whole application cycle will change.
As for those who did not receive secondaries yet, it is still possible to receive them this week or the next, but given that the deadline for submitting secondaries is November 21st, you need to understand that it is highly not probable. I haven't received a secondary myself, and I am super frustrated as this is was my dream school too. I have called the office of admission and was always sent straight to voicemail. I have emailed to ask about my application status at [email protected] two weeks ago, and have not received a response from them either.
I can only hope that I will get a secondary soon, as I have pre-written the secondaries a while ago and have had time to revise them time and time again to the point where I consider them to be perfect lol.
Primary verified end of august, OOS but residing in Los Angeles, URM, LizzyM low 60s. --- No other interviews, first time applicant, probably a reapplicant next year
Best of luck to everyone!

I have heard it from one of the admissions counselors that they go until January. They also said they usually do one extra interview in february but they changed their mind last minute and did that first. Those were the first people who interviewed in October.

This California wildfire tho. RIP to people who have lost their lives, homes, loved ones etc. Just thinking about the air pollution makes me cringe. This seems to happen every year and it's obviously dangerous. I wonder what it feels like living there as a student. I hope the offer enough incentives too.

The first acceptances don't go out until January.
It depends; some get notification a few days after and some get it after a week or two, but it seems like complete notifications come in batches. I think some have mentioned in this thread that they didn't get any complete notification and received an II. If it has been that long, you could call to follow up, but it's a small school with a small staff. It could just be slow processing time.

Hello everyone!
I have tried to contact the admissions office several times via phone and email over the past couple of weeks and have had no luck. I was wondering whether anyone has had better luck getting in touch with the office?
Thanks and best of luck on your application cycle.

I think it's best that you email them. Their staff size is really small so it's rare for them to have to time to stand by the phone.
