This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
same, if you hear anything please let me know!!
It says on their website that every apps are considered after the due date and that interviews are scheduled between early January and late February so they are probably holding those apps for later.

Oh man, I know January is only two months away (weird) but I hope to hear from them soon.
 
What has the average turnaround time from interview to accept/waitlist/r been for this cycle?? They said decisions would be made 10-12 weeks after interview but it seems like people are hearing back sooner?

Mine was around 6 weeks, had an early September interview date and heard back on the 15th of October
 
Thought we'd see some acceptances today but I suppose the lack of activity isn't surprising given no post-II decisions were reported this week. Perhaps adcom is focusing on pre-II decisions and/or taking some time off with the election upcoming.

The anticipating is killing me......
 
For those who interviewed, what's the dress code for the Monday sessions? I'm guessing formal, but just wanted some reassurance
 
I guess both? Are there different rules about both?
Interviewed on 9/11, Waitlist: 10/21
I am not aware of any rules - not sure such things exist in this gray space. The reason I asked was to help inform the advice I'll give. For a letter of interest, I'd generally say submit whenever you feel you have a strong letter ready. For a letter of intent, you're unofficially (i.e., not legally binding) "declaring" that, if accepted, you'll attend the program in question. If Georgetown is your top choice and you know no other program can sway your decision, I'd say submit your letter whenever you're ready; however, if you're weighing other options, perhaps wait until you have a more clear understanding of the decision you'll need to make (i.e., later in the app cycle). Of course, nothing short of a firm 'no post-II correspondence policy' can stop you from sending multiple letters of intent to multiple schools, but the key with a letter of intent is to sound genuine.

Just my $0.02 - hope that helps

Thanks a lot! Appreciate the advice 🙂
 
Do you guys think at this point in the cycle it is not worth it for me to apply? (low stats applicant)
 
Any post-interview acceptances/rejections yet this week?
 
Week of 9/21-9/25 interviewee here sitting empty-handed
+1; Feels like they got to the week before us a while ago but I don't think there was any news last week and this week I feel like the election is going to slow things down as well
 
The deadline to send your primary was 11/2. If you haven't sent it in, I don't think you're eligible anymore.
Oh jeez lmao, that answers my questions hahaha
