2018-2019 University of Rochester

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Congrats to all the peeps getting IIs. I am glad to hear about this, even though I am not one of those being invited, because it let's met know that SOMETHING is happening with the admissions process, whereas hearing nothing makes me wonder what is going on and is kind of creepily disturbing... like an eerie silence.
 
This is a super late post but

7/11 - complete
9/3 - II
Early Oct. - interview

I really loved so much about Rochester, everyone was so friendly and the faculty seem very committed to the students. I loved the sense of community.
 
Did anyone who got accepted get a call from the U of R general hospital number? Someone called me from that number but I missed it, and I didn't get a voicemail...hoping for good news but also so scared :O
 
Accepted as well! interviewed late August

Same, I'm still waiting for a call back 🙁

Anyone interview at the end of September hear back?

I interviewed towards the end and got a call from their general hospital number but I missed it, so I'm really hoping it's an acceptance, though that's pretty quick turnaround!
 
Accepted via phone today! Interviewed mid-September, first one & after a year and a half of uncertainty (I’m a reapplicant) what a huge relief and incredible feeling. Good luck to everyone!

same! I guess one year really did make a difference.
 
Waitlisted, interviewed 9/19. Glad I had an acceptance earlier this week so not too devastated lol. Congratulations to those accepted!
 
Does anyone know how far in advance of our interviews the interviewers have access to our essay/activity responses? Is it in the realm of a few days or a few hours?

I want to list research activities for one or two of my "most-significant" experiences, and I'm debating whether I should mention conference presentations and the PMID# of my papers from these experiences or if I should use the 25 words to describe the projects a bit more fully.
