2020-2021 Albert Einstein

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I found this on the holiday calendar for Einstein, might explain why they have been so quiet today.

I went to visit the admissions office in Belfer (I work at Einstein) and can confirm there's no one there today.

With a username and restricted profile like that, I can’t help but think you’re an admissions officer spying on this thread. Nonetheless, I appreciate the tip on the Jewish holiday lol

I sure hope the admissions personnel here have better things to do on their day off than browse SDN 🤣
 
If waitlist movement is later than usual, it might mean that there will be more movement because people are beginning to CTE and enroll elsewhere. Or at least I hope so.

Congrats!! 🎉
Do you mind if I ask when your interview in April was? As in beginning or mid?
Again, many many congrats!
 
So no chance of an A if we haven’t heard anything post-April interview?

That’s what I’m wondering..
Any correspondence from them would be nice at this point.
When was your interview if you don’t mind me asking?

4/16, wbu?

I have no idea why we haven’t heard anything post interview, nor can I even guess what it means/implies. Some (maybe most) have received one of the email types, [month] update, WL, HPWL, or R.
 
Did everyone get the A email at the same time / do we think they’re still sending As today??? Not sure what the chances look like now considering it’s already so late in May ):

Yeah... the only thing I can say is that I saw some April interviewees last year not hear anything until late-May, when they got the rolling admission email and then As in early June. But idk, this whole process seems odd

I hope that ends up being the case for us too 🙏🏻
 
Did anyone who got accepted this morning off the HPWL hear anything about their financial aid package?
 
md-to-be said:
Am regular WL and have not heard anything. Hoping to hear in early June otherwise I guess I’ll just assume I’m going to my A, which is certainly not the worst thing. Congrats to everyone accepted today! So proud of you!

Same here, my fingers are crossed but I'm not going to get my hopes up too high.

For April interviewees who didn't hear anything back yet, how did you guys think your interview went?

It actually felt like it went pretty well for me... I just think it might be a bit hard to tell because Einstein interviews are all meant to be very conversational and low-stress...
 
Does anyone know if Einstein gives out full ride scholarships ever?

I interviewed in late April and my interview was honestly terrible. Everyone was saying it was gonna be relaxed but my interviewer showed up 5 min late, asked me 2 "normal" questions and 2-3 very off-topic questions, let me ask two questions, and then cut me off and hung up the zoom. Total time, 25 minutes out of the hour it was supposed to take.

I would report that if Einstein is a top choice for you. I think the interview should be 45 minutes at the very least.

Yeah, but whose word are they gonna believe, me or an established, well-respected faculty member? I also would hesitate just in case it affected my chances at this point.

Also, forgot to mention - they had people moving in and out of the camera feed constantly, which was also super confusing.
