My friend who interviewed with me 9/4 just got an acceptance email this morning around 8AM!!

 

[CatDad26]

I must have missed that, I took it as an extremely small percentage of people would be accepted without being on UC first. So If we don't hear today then we are either UC or rejected?

That is what it seems like yes... interviewed 9/4 and haven't heard back yet either

 

[futuredoctor123456789]

For someone who interviewed, can y'all provide the direct address to the interview building?

 

[deleted850233]

Anyone heard from 9/4 interview date?

DOes this mean a hold/waitlist?

I think so, but the admissions dean said that many people on the UC list will eventually get A's

It's not a waitlist, it's more similar to a hold/deferred to a later date. From my knowledge, they pull people off UC list throughout the cycle. If you are on the UC list and don't get an A by the spring then you get put on the waitlist.

Under consideration email just now. I am grateful for that because our chances are still good if we receive this decision 🙂 Congratulations to everyone who got the immediate acceptance! That is incredible!

Really? I thought they put everyone Who interviewed “under consideration”.

I initially thought so as well, but several people have said that they were accepted yesterday. I remember at my interview that someone mentioned most of us will either go onto the under consideration list or be rejected. They did mention that very few people would receive immediate acceptances starting on October 15th though 🙂

No I meant I thought they didn’t deny anyone until the very end.

Username checks out!

Ohhh I understand! I was just looking at last year's thread and some people reported rejections as early as late October. So I think it is possible to be rejected this early.

 

[achilles0619]

Anyone else who interviewed on 8/29 still have no news?

 

[deleted850233]

Oh ok, I didn’t look at it. Thanks for the info. Hope we all hear good news 🙂

Anytime! I hope we hear good news too and I am sure we will 🙂 Good luck to you!

It is very picky about browser, only worked in Firefox.

Interviewed 9/04 and placed under consideration!!

 

[TurtleyReady4Med]

UC has people pulled off throughout the cycle. A large portion of our class were on it at some point.

Do you know if everyone who is not immediately accepted is moved to UC list or some denied right off the bat?

 

[TurtleyReady4Med]

Some are denied

 

[deleted850233]

Some are denied

Thanks

Accepted! Interviewed 9/4

 

[ThetisAntithesis]

This is what the admissions/interview coordinator person (forgot her name) told our group when I interviewed on 10/1.
They are very stringent with acceptances in the 1st few months. There is a threshold (almost like a score or something) - you either meet/exceed it = outright acceptance; don't = outright rejection; or almost there = under consideration.
As the cycle moves on, the requirements get a little lax and the under consideration peeps move into the acceptance threshold point and get the notice.

Hooe this helps.

This was very informative, thank you. During my interview day from what I've understood, no one was denied initially and UC is not "almost there". I hope what you say is more accurate 🙂

 

[ruledaworlds]

II, complete 7/25; dates for late Dec into Jan

 

[82Scout]

II a little over a week ago; dates were in December

 

[lolhelp]

Does anyone know how often they go through their ranked list and pull people off? I don’t remember if they said anything during the interview day.

 

[popcorn1096]

Interviewed 9/04 and was placed under consideration. I will be withdrawing my application (I didn't dislike the school, I actually really enjoyed my interview day, the 'vibe' of the school and the current students, but Albany can't compare to my in-state acceptances). Best of luck everyone!!!

 

[Morc]

I withdrew my 10/29 interview, best of luck!

 

[achilles0619]

Is there anyone who interviewed on 8/29 and has not heard a decision yet? I'm paranoid I'm the only one and they are waiting to reject me
