Ah I guess it might be either hahah

 

[saisonmargerrite]

I'd say Friday, since MSAR says Jan 15 as earliest decision date I think? +1 on anxious

Im illiterate and fail to understand what u mean lol. Would you mind clarifying why u find that odd?

Lol some people got vita before II, others got II before vita. Someone earlier in this thread claims admission office responded to their email confirming they were using VITA to pre screen applicants prior to an actual interview. But vita wouldn’t make sense as a pre screen bc some people received II before a vita invite. The II invite even says you have 2 wks to complete the VITA from this date... Make no sense, therefore odd.

The anxiety hits different the day before

I think last cycle, it was a few days after the 15th too for first wave of decisions!

Last year the first acceptances were on January 15th 👍

 

[baker4life]

does anyone know if they release acceptances in order of interview dates? im guessing november interview ppl will not be hearing anything anytime soon right?

Historically it is not interview-date dependent. Last year some folks received acceptances in mid-January even though they interviewed in early January. Also, this cycle the earliest possible interviews were mid-october so a November interview date would still be pretty early on in the decision timeline.

Are WLs and Rs sent at the same time as As?

I believe that Stanford only does WL post-II (no R's). In previous years WL came out a bit after the initial acceptances.

I usually have some kind of Stanford sources for my posts but both of these statements are just anecdotal based on previous years SDN threads. Grain of salt and all that.

Gauging by when I was informed of an interview, which was at 5:45 pm, I think that's when we'll hear about results.

True, I had a heart attack when I saw the interview invite at the end of the work day

Didn't you find out about your interviews through email? I thought acceptances were given through phone calls.

 

[saisonmargerrite]

last cycle, I saw one person post they got an A at 6 PM EST, and another at 9 PM EST. So I think you're right around the ballpark estimate.

 

[deleted1014383]

It was through an email, but I anticipate their 'send time' would be similar. Also, I didn't realize it was a phone call.

 

[Endee]

Good luck ya'll. I hope they save some acceptances for me interviewing in a couple weeks!

 

[prototypeblitz]

I am terrified. I can’t believe that I’m in a position that this A might be the difference between matriculating and reapplying

? Did you not apply to other schools? Or was Stanford the only interview you got lol

Sorry we aren't all as fortunate as you this cycle

Also damn you're a 15+ year member? Bruh were you thinking of applying to med schools and posting here when you were 7 lol

 

[deleted1014383]

Sorry, didn't mean to come across as arrogant. It's just surprising that stanford is the only interview you got, given that it's the best of the best. Like I'd get it if it were rutgers or something as your only one, but that's really crazy no other lower school gave you one. Did you not have any safeties?

 

[prototypeblitz]

I’ve had a couple others but one turned into an R and another is one that I am not hopeful about at all lmao. Poor interview performance on my part

[deleted1087639]

How big have been the interview days for you guys? I interviewed in the fall (Oct or Nov), and there were like 20-30 people, which surprised me.

 

[deleted1014383]

[FishTacoFriday]

So what are we thinking? Maybe not tonight?

 

[saisonmargerrite]

[deleted1014383]

I'm holding my breath until 9

So what are we thinking? Maybe not tonight?

But maybe next week as well
Also, our sample size is pretty small here lol

Anybody brave fool with a puckered *sshole feel like calling/emailing?

 

[saisonmargerrite]

^your time to shine.

 

[mvsrocks]

Anybody brave fool with a puckered *sshole feel like calling/emailing?

"Hey I interviewed at Stanford a few months ago and was wondering where my acceptance is, thanks"

Sorry, my *sshole is only bleached and waxed. You need somebody else

for some reason it feels like... a lot of people who interviewed at Stanford this round. I wonder if they'll release any metrics but I almost feel like they really cast a broad net for interviews. Looks like I'm not the only one who's only interviewed at Stanford and gotten R'd (4) or "waiting" (12) for most schools... this is tearing my brain apart.

Previous person said that stanford said they are interviewing "south of 500"
