Congrats to everyone who has been accepted! Does anyone happen to know what the dates are for the Woodruff Fellowship Finalist weekend this year? I know they start deliberating in March, but when does the actual weekend take place?
I’m pretty sure the invitations themselves don’t go out until March and the weekend is in March as well

Last year the weekend was March 23-24. Finalists were notified about 10 days prior. I would assume it will be similar this year. (Posting this because I know it’s difficult to get information about this scholarship and how the process works).

I just heard from the Office of Fiancial Aid, but I haven’t interviewed or even been invited to interview at Emory. Does that email go out to everyone?

I also received the same email and haven’t heard anything since submitting my secondary. Not sure if everyone who applied gets it or just those who have already put Emory as one of their schools on the FAFSA (like I did).

Same, I submitted back in August, zero response since then. When I filled out my FAFSA, I added them as a school. I am guessing anyone who filled out a FAFSA and added Emory might have received the email.

In the portal, under the "STATUS" heading, look to the column located on the left of the screen for "Update My Application." Here you'll find a text box where you can paste updates. There's only one box with a total of 1000 character space, so if you send an additional update after that, don't delete previous updates in the box! Simply add underneath it. I just put my updates here last week :)

It was very short and low stress. They kind of ask questions one at a time so you don't really interact with the other interviewees. You don't have to worry about getting interrupted or not having a chance to speak.
agreed. Very low stress
 
Anyone whose been accepted already know they're going to Emory?
 
Interview today! Spots open from Feb 8th - 18th

Nothing on my end but then again I’d put my chances at an acceptance at like 10% so I dunno lol

Congrats! When did you interview?
 
Soooo has the 1/21 batch come out yet? I see one person got in (congrats!), but usually there's more than one posting about it... It would make sense that it wouldn't have been yesterday because post offices were closed for MLK day, but I don't know.

I think they update the portal for those who get accepted....so....
