I sent mine in a week after my interview (no idea if that is typical–figured it wouldn't hurt to come across too eager). I also didn't have any major updates (just elaborated more on my job that had only just started when I submitted my secondary plus some abstract acceptances). I think grades back/increase in GPA seems sufficient!
No one knows for sure, but MSAR says that the earliest date of acceptance is the 18th and for the last couple of years the first round was released around the same time
Do they send out invitations for these? I saw that it says students will be invited to join these in the interview section in their portal but I haven't received any notification about it.
I think they only send links out once a month for the upcoming dates that month. I emailed requesting information for approaching sessions though and they were very nice about it
Very receptive, during my interview day we were told to send letters of interest once we got to later in the cycle (right now) if we still had strong interest!
They said they were happy to get them at my interview day! I uploaded one last week, telling them how great they are can’t hurt!
Sending that before 5 PM EST then! Thanks for the prompt reply.
Yes, both of mine responded within a day or two!
I emailed mine initially but I think I caught them during Thanksgiving break so i uploaded it to the portal myself. I got a confirmation email about 1.5 weeks after I sent it in initially
Just got rejected from Colorado so could really use some love this Friday!!
Not sure 100% that's just the earliest date listed on MSAR. I remember them saying they send out a big wave in December and then again in the Spring. So.. it's speculative, but we can hope! Haha
Looks like it from MSAR as previously said and looking at the last few years the first wave of decisions has been released on/around the third Friday of December. Idk what interview dates specifically but in my interview we were told that they meet in November for December decisions
They said this to early November people too lol
Really hope they follow through with this!!! I submitted mine right on the deadline :/
MSAR says tomorrow.
Historically they’ve sent things out the Friday before they go on break, which is tomorrow!
Tbh I think it's a good spot to be in. If they don't accept you, there's no wondering "Why didn't they accept me" cuz you know there wasn't enough time. But they also might've gotten to you if your interviewer submitted comments early enough. Best of both worlds! That's what I tell myself (in the same boat as you!)
Good perspective!! Thanks 🙂
I hope so honestly. This was my dream school and I need them to just go ahead and tell me no.
Or yes 🙂
As a Tennessean, I want nothing more lol
Just for some insight: I was realllly early december and they said no chance for us hearing back, so maybe if they didn't tell you that it means yours is considered?
Yup! Hope I wake up to good new 😛
They called the accepted students last year, it seems like mostly in the afternoon and evening (someone reported a call at almost 6 est).
I feel like it's unlikely they wouldn't release any decision today?
