Does anyone know the best time to send them an update/ letter of interest if you interviewed in early November? The update would include a mid author publication

I’d say before the first committee meeting but that has passed; so as long as you do it before their second which is in feb you should be good
 
Pre-II R just now too, complete early November. Good luck to the rest of you still waiting to hear back!
 
My knees are weak and my arms are heavy. Good luck to everyone tomorrow (or whenever calls start going out)!

Occasionally, PI's are called to verify research involvement as part of the adcom's due deligence but has nothing to do with acceptance. I guess the first 16 accepted to CCLCM so far haven't come out of the wood work or just want to remain anonymous. Best of luck and Happy Holidays to everyone.

Well this is disheartening, in the same thread a guy had a pi call but got waitlisted so here's more info for anyone else who's neurotic and anxious about the upcoming decisions

I mean if I were them I wouldn't waste a call on someone I was definitely going to reject! So who knows if it means a definite acceptance but I think it's probably a sign they're at least seriously considering you

I agree, I have seen a few situations where student's PIs were called that didn't lead to an acceptance but I think that the vast majority do. They called my PI Monday and my PI seemed to think that was a very good sign but didn't give me many more details on the call. I am also wondering if decision are coming out today!!
 
This is my top choice, interviewed two months ago but PI didn't get a call. I would guess that a call is a good sign but no call doesn't mean you are outright rejected -- just far less likely to be accepted than someone whose PI received a call (based on previous CCLCM SDN threads).
Would it be better to send a letter of intent closer to the February review or does the timing make no difference? Honestly figured I'd just get the LoI over with since this is my top choice anyway but unsure if it would get buried by Feb.

I’d send it anyways but I think the last couple of years some waitlist’s are announced near New Year’s Eve. Then again, who knows maybe you’re one of the first 16 and won’t have to worry about it!
 
Would it be appropriate to email your previous PI to see if they got a call? lol I moved from NYC to the west coast and not sure if he got a call! Also who else is anxiously awaiting a call for the A!? How many offers go out in the whole cycle?

I groupMe'd mine and probably embarrassed myself with my response when he told me he was getting a call from them. Def email the worse they can do is be silent. and 32 offers total, more sent only as people from the 32 withdraw

Wait I thought Dr. Warren said that all interviewees not accepted in December are thrown back into re-evaluation for the next batch? :O

They very well could be, I just remember reading on a bunch of the old threads that some people were immediately put on the waitlist with the reevaluation still happening and some people didn't hear back at all until February

No clue. It's always later than you expect, could be possibly next week or maybe after Christmas. I would expect that calls would go out before Jan 1 but I don't know if any of the timeline has changed for this year.

Sweet thanks for the response!

Just a heads up, at my interview last week I was told they are accepting fewer than 16 in December this year and leaving more for February. So if you aren't accepted in the first round there are more spots than usual in the next round!
Click to expand...
Oh sweet thanks for the heads up! They happen to mention anything about pi calls, accepted student calls?
 
Does anyone know how the second round of acceptances works? Do they re-rank candidates from a larger pool or do they accept the next 16 that they had previously ranked from the first round?

They say their alternate list is not ranked but they might have two lists internally who knows
 
but have people actually been called or will it happen like this week? lol just need to see if I should be anxious on my phone lol

Unless something has changed, everyone is ranked from the larger pool for the second round of acceptances. I was in the 2nd set of 16 and I interviewed after they had announced the first 16, so evidently the 2nd set of 16 isn't just from the first set of rankings.
