Interviewed 3/11 and got WL'd on 5/4. Hope if it's taking longer for you that you're more likely to get the A! Hoping for the best for you!
Same here except I interviewed in mid-April. Feeling really anxious right about now in case I have to move across the country on super short notice 🙁 lol

Congrats! Did you send an LOI or any updates?
Thank you!!! Not since before I interviewed! I was gonna send one late May but I guess I don't need to!
Got a $25k per year scholarship!!!!
That’s amazing!!!!!! Congrats!!!! When were you accepted? Did you fill out the scholarship application form? Or did you email them about anything? I’ve been waiting to hear back about a scholarship and I’ve been wondering if I need to do anything else to be considered :/
I filled out the online app but did so after their listed deadline. Accepted in early April. Didn’t do anything in addition to that. Wasn’t expecting to receive one tbh, it was out of the blue

Does Drexel historical have a decent wave of A’s off the waitlist post April 30th or is it likely to just trickle in?

I know people have been saying they are done interviewing, but I just got a weird email from Drexel essentially saying while they are not inviting me to interview yet, that they have elected to hold my application for reevaluation (Most likely due to how late in the cycle I submitted my application). Has anyone else received an email like this? Wondering why they would even bother saying this if they are done with interviews

I feel like waitlist movement so far has been pretty slow. Maybe a lot of the movement is not reported on SDN.
I interviewed 4/7 and nothing yet. I was told I would hear a decision in 8-10 weeks during my interview, so I’m not expecting to hear anything until June 😞

I interviewed end of April and I was wondering what that exactly means.. Like I'm still waiting for a decision and they told us some will get As right off the bat, and some will get WL. Does anyone have any insight on how DUCOM works with these late interviews?

I interview mid April and they told us we would hear back in 6-8 weeks. So June. It’s unfortunate but it is what it is. I’ve been working on re-apps just in case.
Has anyone heard about any waitlist movement recently? It's been so quiet...
I was accepted from the waitlist on Friday, so pretty recently. Hoping for the best for you! Keep up hope!
Congrats!! Did you send any letters of interest or updates? Also what are your stats if you don't mind me asking?
I sent an update before my II. I was waitlisted on 5/4 and accepted on 5/7, so not much time to send another update haha. I was planning to send one on or around 5/22 though. PM for my stats
just got accepted off the waitlist. Int 1/26, waitlist 5/10, acceptance 5/14. really crazy bc they never got back to me for like 5 months. Also, it was my first int ever and i thought it went awfully, so guys there's hope.
for the stat seekers: 512, gpa: 3.9, oos.

Yes I did! It’s like a “still interested” email....
Lol why do they do this to ussssss
Does anyone remember how many additional students will matriculate this year because of the new Reading campus?
Pretty sure it's 40
Can anyone advice on the nature of an update letter for those of us on the waitlist? I sent an update before my decision was made. Pretty much have continued with the same update I originally submitted but more hours now. I don’t know if this is worthy of “new information” as detailed in their most recent email re: still interested in waitlist position

looked through last years threads and it looks like the "still interested" email went out to everyone on the WL; at least from what I saw, both people who got in and people who later got rejected received this email.
appreciate your transparency, it seems like there's been soooooo little movement which is not what I was expecting...

Drexel still has people who interviewed last month that need a decision (like myself) - I would think they are waiting to finalize those decisions before making any significant/large movement.
I'm wondering if they hold seats for people who interviewed later. Based on previous threads it seems like some people have gotten off the WL before new decisions came out... I have no idea how to explain that otherwise
Yeah I’m assuming the same
Just accepted yesterday morning! Interviewed 3/3, never waitlisted, never sent LOI.

Yeah I’m also still on hold for interview. Odd that they are this disorganized.
