[caudaequinaxx]

II yesterday!

 

[premed_kh]

II today! Complete 8/16; LizzyM 74; URM; OOS

 

[sunflowerpeaches]

II today! Complete on 9/26 (literally i am so confused on how this happened but I am not going to question it!); LizzyM 73; almost didn't apply here because I thought I had no chance so if there's one thing to say about this cycle is that you never know and should shoot your shot!

Are you URM by chance? I submitted super late too🙁

Not URM, but I am classified as disadvantaged by low-income & first-gen if that makes a difference

Me too! Fingers crossed, good luck at your interview!!!

Has anyone that has interviewed here already sent a "letter of continued interest", or anything like that? This school is very high on my list, but I am not exactly sure when and what type of communication is appropriate. Any thoughts?

I emailed my interviewers to thank them and express my very strong interest in the school. But other than that, I'm just going to wait.

[wpneuro]

An FYI: I just got info that Pritzker isn't going to be offering any As tomorrow (Oct. 15) - they expect to begin in November, so there's still a bit of a wait ahead!

 

[gomernation]

Pre-II R! Complete 7/14.

On my interview day, they put out that a very small number of applicants will be offered acceptance in November and that the majority of applicants can expected to hear back Feb/Mar.

 

[TabbyTuxy]

Pre-II R (not unexpected), LM 70 ORM. Complete 7/14.

[smallermarine]

Is this school receptive to update letters? I am not in school, but there was not a gap year update so maybe explaining what I am doing might now could get a response of some sort?

 

[mlua1811]

I know they said a select few would receive acceptances in November. Do we think those will mostly be for September & early October interview dates? I interviewed mid-October & all they said was to check the website which isn’t specific

 

[abcsunshine]

Does anyone have insight into when exactly in November (i.e. beginning, middle, end) the handful of acceptances may be given out?

No clue. Can’t even base it off last year since they started giving acceptances out right on October 15

 

[premedguy12]

Is the student social casual?

Yep!

[Orims]

Yup, at least got a fee waiver!

They sent me that email after I already applied 🙁 they did the same thing to me in undergrad!

 

[brobamacare]

Don't give up hope! I interviewed there with worse stats than you (also URM). I have strong ECs but it's more than stats. At the interview they really emphasized mission & fit!

You never know. I really feel like the schools try and build a diverse cohort each year, and we just don't know what that's going to look like! Something about your experiences might stick out to them. Best of luck to you don't lose faith in yourself!! 🙂
