Hi everyone, I just made an account to share that I received an II here late late last week, and there were plenty of dates to pick from through the 2nd - 4th weeks of February.

Stats are LizzyM 66 and ORM, so I'm pretty sure my essays, ECs, and LORs are what made me stand out. OOS as well, but I have some unique ties to Florida that I talked about in-depth.

Would any applicants/current students here be able to answer a few of my questions about interview day and the school in general? I'm happy to share my questions in the forum or PM, whatever you prefer.

I've never really used sdn before, so I apologize if I'm missing some info or my formatting is wrong. And feel free to ask me any questions too!

Congrats! When were you complete?
 
Is there a way of knowing if I’ve been rejected? I’ve emailed, called and left VM and still no reply from anyone.

II! can someone please tell me if the interview is MMI? I’m confused because the website says two 30 minute interviews but some people are saying MMI. Thank you in advance & good luck everyone! 🙂

It is MMI, they just started this year that is why it is not updated.
 
Although I haven't heard anything from FAU, I've noticed that my application portal has changed so that now, when I click on my ID at the top corner, it shows a "Z number" and "FAUNet ID". Did anyone else notice this? I'm pretty sure it wasn't always there.

I didn't notice this until you pointed it out just now. I also haven't heard anything from FAU.

I have it too, but yeah, not sure if it has always been there. Usually when I check my secondaries, it's a super quick check so I may have just never noticed it...
 
havent checked in a while but admissions screening completed, maybe pre-ii R will come soon :^)

Anyone have an idea what this means (Red message)? Came up when I opened the portal today

II scheduled for next week! For anyone who's interviewed here already, any words of advice for prepping for MMI? all of my interviews so far have been traditional Q&A so I'm pretty nervous for this change of pace 😳
 
Admissions Screening Completed today - was complete in august . How long does it take to get to the next step and is the next step an II?
 
Hey had an interview here on 01/11 and kinda forgot the timeline of hearing back, (I believe it is today or tmrw) can anyone who has interviewed and gotten a decision give me some clarity on when they heard back? Thanks!

I know our group heard almost 3 weeks later, if you get accepted Monica should give you a call before the time they gave you. The one person accepted from my interview day (at least on SDN) heard the day before she said she would post the decisions. If you don't hear back before the posted time it likely means the alternate list.

So I can remember Monica saying not everyone will get phone calls (i think my memory is foggy), has anyone gotten accepted w/o receiving a call and just having the portal update

Okay that makes sense, I was just speculating about the phone call. By the way our portal did not update until about 4pm so do not stress out too much if it is not there at 2pm exactly haha

I'm not sure when they'll be done, but it was mentioned this week during my interview that they were around 75-80% through with their 320 interview slots.
