The fatter the better in my opinion.

The fatter the better in my opinion.

Couldn't agree more!

Also, loved the suspense!

"An update has been posted to your applicant status page."

SAVAGE.

Does anyone know if they provide interview feedback?

 

[Adrenaline_Junkie]

This strikes me as something that most schools do not do, however you can always call your admissions counselor and ask. You have nothing to lose from asking!

If you haven't been rejected, it is never too late to be the last person invited for an interview

I was complete 7/31 and just got my interview last week. At the time they only had dates available to early February, and IIRC they continue interviewing throughout March. So yes there are definitely a lot of interviews invites to be handed out, and don’t forget a lot of those will be promptly withdrawn!

 

[KaioKaizen]

Can anyone that has interviewed and flew out right afterward attest to a good departure time from ORD? Tryna figure out what times I should be booking for

I’d say if you’re super conservative (like me), 4-4:30 should be fine. That’s only if you stay til the end of the lunch social (usually tails off around 1:30pm). Otherwise, you could get away with booking an earlier flight. I didn’t experience a ton of traffic to ORD on my way back, but this of course varies.

 

[steponitpatrick]

does anyone know if Rosalind franklin still has any interview spots left? or if they are sending out interview invites anymore? Can you tell that I hate waiting? lmao

 

[KaioKaizen]

Withdrew my II today, good luck to yall!

 

[Mozgeralt]

Is there any news on the alternate list? I am getting a bit worried. I have an interview coming up and was wondering if anybody has been accepted after December 23rd, or is everybody just getting put on the alternate list now?

Sadly no

[silent.planet]

[jambro]

Got in off the waitlist! Interviewed late nov, waitlisted mid Dec.

weird process they do...

 

[titanup96]

Accepted today! Interviewed 1/23. I will be declining my acceptance so I hope it goes to someone on the waitlist!

 

[enchantments]

Alternate listed today, staying hopeful!

 

[Greendale human being]

people that got accepted, did you send any letters after you got WL?

 

[premed-1326]

Alternate list yesterday, interviewed 1/23

 

[jambro]

people that got accepted, did you send any letters after you got WL?

i did not send any updates, period. Also, don’t freak if you get an email just saying “Status Update” - they tell you to check your portal, and for me it was an A.

Does anyone know how many people are put on the alternate list and how many people get offered a spot?

 

[holdthemayo]

Alternate list yesterday, interviewed 1/23

I know that can be frustrating, but there is usually a lot of movement on the WL in the spring.

 

[Jappa]

Just withdrew, hope it goes to one of you lovely people

 

[ew_david]

people that got accepted, did you send any letters after you got WL?

From what I remember, they don't actually accept any updates/letters unless its like a "bad thing" like IAs, etc

Also is there a FB group for accepted students?

 

[yahneeks]

Accepted! Interviewed 1/28

 

[menacingpecan]

Accepted! Interviewed on 1/15. LizzyM: 71. OOS.

 

[premed-1326]

Thanks! I’m still hopeful but am just waitlisted in a lot of places

 

[Orange265]

Does anyone know how it works if you are accepted somewhere else but are still on the waitlist past May 1st? Can schools see if you're on the waitlist and rescind you?

No, they only see that you are accepted to schools. Can hold as many waitlists as you want.

 

[It costs to enroll]

Does anyone know if sending additional LORs to the adcom when WLed will help or hurt your status?

 

[krankxl2]

Does anyone know if sending additional LORs to the adcom when WLed will help or hurt your status?

I am pretty sure they don't accept ANY updates except IA, felonies, etc... so I would doubt sending a LOR would help.

 

[Superobvious]

My girlfriend applied here and got a complete email way back last fall. However, just today she got an email that her application is being withdrawn because it is incomplete. She has emailed back inquiring why it is marked as incomplete despite the complete email.

I’m here to inquire if she should remain in contact with Rosalind if they are still sending out interview invites to see if she can get her application reviews. Till when does their interview season last?
