I have never dissected an email to this extent but according to the interview tracker and the posts, adcoms are roughly around early-mid August now with some recent interviews still going out to late July. @Jetcat I’m now gonna agree with you

In that case, I am optimistic that they actually haven’t reviewed them all. To be on the safe side, I’m going to call the office tmw and will get back to this.

Just checked my portal and realized I failed to press submit on my secondary back in July- should I email admissions to let them know I'm very interested? Fee was paid and everything :( Actually cannot believe I did that, Rochester is one of my top schools

Did you let admissions know? I guess late August is much sooner than mid October tho.
 
I have not received any sort of email, did my interview with them on 9/23. Is this email only for non-IIs? Does it have any information regarding a decision date? If I read correctly, last year's cycle got As around now, so hoping to hear back from them sooner than later. Rochester is one of my favorites!

We are in the clear! Email applies to both those not reviewed yet and those currently under review as of the weekend.

I got the email - but wondering what my chances are cuz it seems a lot of ii have already gone out?
 
Yup, I asked if they could elaborate on the email and they told me it was genuinely an email that hinted they have not got to those or that they are still under review. I'm a bit comforted but still neurotic nonetheless lol.
 
Did anyone else receive popup cafes email?

Should we be reading into the popup cafe email, or was it sent to all?

i think sent to all who interviewed! I went to one last night and the students were explicit to mention they had no affiliation with admissions/ no admissions people were there

Why do schools do this? On a day when we are expecting decisions, they send a "attend these webinars" email!!!

Adcoms in general or for this school specifically?
 
Didn't receive the popup cafe email - is it a webinar / info session? Can someone share the link?
 
Tomorrow is 6 weeks from the first interview date (I’m pretty sure?)!! I think this thread should be getting some news soon :)

For "Please describe what sets you apart from other applicants.", did people treat this as a diversity prompt/just slap on their diversity essay? Im kinda done with writing new essays at this point lol

It's just one of the questions they ask after II since they're closed file except for a set of questions

Yeah, i'm modifying a diversity essay i wrote for another school :D
For the 4 activities, do you think it's essential to include info about it that's on our AMCAS? i'm wondering about things like how long we did it for, hour hours, specific title, stuff like that?

Hi, so I am not a current interviewee but I do know from previous cycles that Rochester interviewers won't see your full file and only have access to the 4 activities you write about along with your short essays. Based off this, I think it'd be important to flesh out the activities even if it overlaps with your AMCAS. Can someone else who's interviewed corroborate this information?
 
Has anyone asked admissions what date they expect to release the first batch of decisions?
 
A!!!! Just now!!!!!!!
Formal email will come tomorrow, this was a phone call
(9/10 interview)

For those accepted yesterday, any changes on your portal?
Does status still say application is ready?
