Anybody who interviewed with check in at 0800, what time was your day over? Trying to book a flight, would 1650 departure be cutting it too close?

Yeah, my group finished around 1300. you should be fine and it takes like 30 mins to get through the airport and to your terminal.

Anyone else get a decision for the November 15th interview date? Thought the lady said we'd hear back before thanksgiving this week.

Did you ever hear back ?

 

[BirdietheCockatiel]

Did you ever hear back ?

Still nothing yet. I called last Tuesday and someone from admissions told me to call their office again if I don't hear from them today. I am planning to call around 4 (to give them more time haha). I'll update.

Update: No update cause no one answering:/

Has anyone tried sending an email while Under consideration and then gotten in?

This is a good question I would like to know also. I wanted to send an update but I know that they do not accept updates.

Ik there's a big storm in the area so maybe a lot of people stayed home.

I’m at the hospital right now and I’m assuming a good number of people stayed home today by how quiet the hallways have been for a weekday. Lots of staff called off in the hospital, I imagine a lot of the college’s staff did as well.
Edited to note that my unit DID have medical students here today. Poor folks. I think they got to go home after rounds though.

 

[emoryundergrad2020]

Were you under UC first or was it a direct A?

Direct A

Does Albany reject after interview? Or does everyone get placed “under consideration”?

 

[banterboy]

does anyone know how often they lower the threshold line for people on the UC list?

Yes. Although many people are put on UC post interview, some are rejected and a minority are accepted without UC.

I was put UC for a week and a half then accepted, I think a few others on this thread here were as well. It seems like it moves continuously!

Curious to see where they are with their UC list and how GPA/MCAT contributes to that ranking. Especially for those
recently accepted after being placed UC...

 

[emoryundergrad2020]

Anyone know if there is a group yet for accepted students?

I want to know this because I felt good about my interview but was placed under UC.

Anyone know how many they interview?

[banterboy]

It's like 1/5 that get in.

It's like 1/5 that get in.

When I interviewed early September I was told its about 1/3 accepted post-II

if they interview 500 and accept like 100 something? like 1/4?? 🙁

They definitely accept more than the class size since not everyone will end up going there. I think the standard rule is most schools accept 2-3 times their class size
