for the group interview - do you discuss questions with other applicants or you're each individually asked a question by the interviewer? is there any back-and-forth?

The interviewer asks a question and we all take turns answering it. They switch up the order after each question so that someone else goes first each time. It’s was actually a great group interview experience! There wasn’t any back and forth in my experience, I just piggy backed off one other persons experience by starting with “that’s something I enjoy doing too”
Everyone was just so nice and friendly, hands down one of my favorite interviews.

Just living the groundhog day of waking up, checking emails, hoping for something, and then doing it all again the next day 🙂

What is the consensus on pre-II letters of interest for Emory? I don't have any updates in particular, but want to stay in the Atlanta area for family reasons (this wasn't mentioned elsewhere in my app).

 

[premedddd999]

Yes. You can submit a text update on your secondary portal

Thank you!

Congrats! Did you interview with other MD applicants or was your interview MSTP specific?

MSTP specific!

Is Emory done sending out II’s? Is it worth to send a letter of intent pre-II?

They said they don’t really care for letters of intent/interest. They do accept text-box updates for new experiences though

Kind of a Dumb question, but can they only see the updates when they reach the 1000 word max, or are they constantly updated if you even add like 5 words or something/modify text lol and submit the “change”?

I don’t see a change in my portal status yet but I got an email notifying me of an acceptance! I still don’t feel like it’s real until I see that portal update though hah

Congrats! Was it an email from the admissions department or from financial aid?

It was an email from the admissions department 👍🏼

Nah. Anything you input and submit will be updated and added to your file

Congratulations!! That’s interesting that they’re sending emails this time around! I wonder why they state on the site that they wouldn’t. Did anyone else get one?

It was from the admissions department via the office of multicultural affairs. I’m assuming they got word from the admissions committee and notified me along with some information about other multicultural programs they offer.

Makes sense!

 

[sk1651]

Just got an email - waitlisted

That sent you a specific email that said you were waitlisted? So weird, I thought decisions were sent exclusively by mail.

 

[highhighhopes]

Has anyone received an email from them stating financial aid application received, but no II yet? Is this just an automatic message that goes out to everyone that placed emory on their fafsa?

I just got that too and am wondering the same thing

 

[TheLittleWillowTree]

👀 what’s happening, admissions folks?

 

[MediocreClimber]

Just received that email too and have the A. However, it says receiving the email has no connection to your admission decision. I’m sure it went to everyone who submitted fafsa for them.

 

[davethebarbarian]

anyone hear back or do they usually come on portal wednesday?👀

 

[sk1651]

Has anyone's portal updated?

 

[chaibiscuit]

Has anyone's portal updated?

Hey, I would appreciate it if you could let us know if your portal updated today!

[mlua1811]

I interviewed earlier this month & also received the email from the office of multicultural affairs on Sunday notifying me of an A. Yesterday I received the letter in the mail & I just checked my portal & it was updated to reflect that

RIP. Thanks for letting us know!

 

[DorianDinosaur]

Did anyone only get a portal update of an A without an email from multicultural affairs?

 

[soi-milk]

Hey, I would appreciate it if you could let us know if your portal updated today!

It did!

 

[Patient0sPlus1]

Got the A as well! Got it in the post and portal updated.

Btw acceptance notification on the portal won't be on the Status tab but a new Admissions Offer tab opens up.

 

[iliketomoveitmoveit]

how long are the group and 1:1 interviews?

 

[chocolatecookiez]

Has anyone sent in more than 1 update? My 1st update is submitted but the text is still in the text box, so I'm wondering if I should delete the text and add in my 2nd update to the box?
