They sent out decision letters for interviewees between 11/30-12/14 on friday. So those letters should be coming in sometime this week. They told my group that we would have a decision before christmas.
 
USPS Informed Delivery showed me the scan of the envelope. It's being delivered today. Hello, nerves my old friend.

I’m guessing it depends on when you interviewed. There was a committee meeting on Thursday for those who interviewed on 11/30, 12/7, and 12/14. Decision letters for those groups were mailed on Friday. I was told that IS applicants should expect to hear back before christmas. Its still early (considering mail doesnt run on Sundays) in the week. So I’d only check with admissions if you’re IS and your letter hasn’t come in by Saturday.

I'm IS and interviewed 11/30
 
Has anyone heard heard back from Shreveport after submitting secondaries? Any acceptances? Rejections? Acceptable lists?

Do they mail letters for only acceptances or do they mail letters for Rejections and Acceptable lists as well?

I’m not 100% but I think its all. AdCom told my interview group that decisions (so I’m assuming that that means As, Rs, Ws, etc.) will all be mailed.
 
Hey yall!! I'm a current second year at shreveport, if you have any questions, feel free to DM me! 🙂

Thank You! And I wish that I had some big secret as to why, but I don’t. The advice that I was given (repeatedly) was to try to make your interview as conversational and smooth as possible. I guess it worked out.

It definitely worked! 🔥
 
For those of you who got into Shreveport but are also waiting for other acceptances -
are you accepting your offer now, and if for some reason you end up not attending, you give up the seat later? or does accepting it now lock you into shreveport?
I had interviews at a few other schools and would like to also know their decisions before committing. Thank you, guys!

I believe accepting just means you hold a seat at the school. It shouldn't lock you in. In April you will be asked to choose one school. Accepting will not limit your options.
 
How long does Shreveport generally take to inform people about acceptance, rejection, or waitlist after interviewing? And is it via email or snail mail? Thanks in advance!

It depends, I think they do it by batches. For instance, I interviewed Dec. 14 and got my letter in the mail the following Monday, but there were groups that interviewed a few weeks before us that were also being evaluated at the same time as my group. It depends on when you interview and when the committee meets. Because the committee was meeting the week I interviewed, Dr. Thomas called us the "lucky group" for obvious reasons lol
