Yeah I'm 1/18 and didn't hear back yesterday with the other 1/18 people so I'm big confused

Don’t quote me on this, but from my interview day I believe they said something along the lines of not reviewing applicants in the order of interview dates, but instead the order in which your app was marked as complete. Again, don’t quote me on this because it only half made sense in my head at the time. This could be the case though?

Hmm this is quite interesting. Should I start doing this to other schools?

I did this at a few schools, and I got II at two of them pretty quickly after. They replied to my email and told me I was on the pre-II waitlist, so expressing interest pushed me over the edge.

Did you basically just say "hi im still interested and was wondering if I'm still being considered for an interview"? Or was it more of a bit of an update as well? I'm going to start shooting my shot at this point but want to make sure I'm not screwing this up.

I said that + a few paragraphs explaining my interest in their specific program. I didn't include any update cuz I've already sent all my updates.

In general, you can kind of figure out what schools it might work for. For example, schools whose interview cycles run pretty late, like Drexel (though I didn't send an email/letter to them). Or schools that you have ties to.

Also, I sent emails. I did not upload a letter to the portal. I don't think they even check that thing

It was its own little tab under I think admissions decision. You had to have paid the deposit and confirmed your position to be included in todays lottery, so maybe if you don’t have it that’s why?

I literally just said hi I’m still interested and wondering if I’m still being considered. Didn’t provide any update otherwise

just don't make the same mistake I did...and forget to change the school name if you copy and paste the emails. because I did not get a reply. oops.

Do you know when the next batch of campus assignments will be? I'd like to know before we have to choose a school.

On the FB page admissions posted the remaining batch should be coming today (Monday). They also said each assignment is manually entered so exact timing may be variable
 
I'm confused. I paid my deposit a while ago and did my campus preference a while ago. I even emailed Brian Milsted on 3/16 to make sure I would be included in the lottery and he said yes. But when I look at the campus preference tab it just says "This page is complete" and has my 1 and 2 options.
 
Oh. Got ahead of myself. I just read what Whooptyscoop said above. I must be in the batch that they are releasing today! Now I'm nervous lol
 
Did you guys get an email when your campus was updated? Or should I continue nervously refreshing this page for the rest of the afternoon? 🤣

WL today, interviewed 01/18

I also had the very difficult interviewer. Wish someone would confirm him name LOL, but he was very negative probably my worst interview experience yet. I had a strong feeling I would get WL.

Haven't heard back yet, but I had the same experience. My interviewer was pretty rude/negative and it had me taken aback, definitely expecting an R because of how unprepared I was for that lmao. Interviewer initials were MW

Did you happen to receive the automatic reply to check your status in the portal?

I didn't contact Drexel, if you're asking about Drexel specifically. For other schools, I didn't get an auto-reply (I got an individualized reply from admissions), though for 1 or 2 I did just get the stupid auto reply
