Nothing yet. Doubt they will send out As to people that interviewed this week as it was only 2 days ago.
True. But i was really asking for people that interviewed prior. And she actually did mention that someone heard back a day later so there is a possibility, just not likely. I'm not holding my breath lol

Ah I see! Then yeah there's absolutely a chance they will send out something later this evening. Nothing forsure like you said but a possibility since they did say Thursdays.
 
At the interview, they said they meet and send out decisions every Thursday. Anybody that's interviewed heard back today?
To ease your nerves I believe I remember them saying they met every Thursday, but decisions were sent out on Fridays. All of which was dependent upon when your interviewer finished your assessment. They also let my group know that they were behind at the moment on reviewing files and we should hear latest the second week of December. Wishing you luck to hear soon!

When did you interview?
 
I completed my application on July 31st and have not heard anything. It says on the portal "Please allow 4-6 weeks for your full application to be reviewed and processed." At this point should I call the school or email the school? Anyone in the same boat and tried contacting them already ?
Thank you
 
I was complete late August. Silence on their part. I called on Friday and was told that my application was under review and that they couldn’t tell me more. Encouraged me to attend the next virtual session in Dec. 4
I attended the first one in August. Im not sure if they keep track of who attends, but I believe it may have been bc that fair was prior to interview season beginning
 
They said at the First Friday on Nov 6th that they do keep track of who shows up at the event.

However, it seems like there's upwards of 150 people who attend each so I'm not sure how much it really helps.
 
9/15 complete, and no word since. I’ve also attended every First Friday since August, so idk if it’s helped.
 
Has Howard sent out all their acceptances for this month? If so, have any other interviewees heard back about being waitlisted?
 
I worked as a medical assistant! I was on the waitlist. I applied late last cycle and they had already filled their class before I got an interview.
Just curious, how late did you apply? So they continued to send interview invites even though the class was full? Or did you mean they had already filled the class before you got an acceptance?

Yes, at my interview they told us the class was full and that they were interviewing for waitlist spots because it was before people started dropping in April. I didn’t complete my secondary until I think December last year.

During my interview, the dean of admissions told us all that their system is accept exactly what they want their class size to be (120), and then waitlist everyone else. Then, as accepted students start to decline A's, they remove people from their waitlist. My interview was 11/10 and she said that there were approaching the 120 mark. The bright side, though, is that there is a lot of waitlist movement.

Dang, I feel like I put myself in a major disadvantage by completing my app in September :/ Fingers crossed that everything works out for the best!
