I got the call for the A yesterday at 4PM😄
they have the list of days the release interview decisions on the hub app, the first adcom meeting was on october 6th and that's when they introduce new members of adcom committee, they told us they don't make decisions that day to comply with the october 15th rule but they will during the following meeting on october 20th, which is when they said acceptance calls will be made after 5 pm
Dang break my heart some more 😂😂. I'm hoping you just interviewed first. But congratulations!
congrats, may i ask when you were interviewed? i interviewed during the first interview day and they told not to hear back until oct 20 but i assume that policy has changed of they have already released your decision
I was also first day. I thought Oct. 20th also but I’ll take it haha
Tbh I'm not buying it. Fresh account reporting the only A on this thread and that contradicts the timeline given by the deans. I interviewed first week and they also said Oct 20 at the earliest.
PM me if you want. I was just as confused though
honestly congrats, miami is so random sometimes doesn't surprise me that they didn't follow their own guidelines lol
This lmfao, congrats though!
I didn’t mean it like that lol but thanks!😂
Eh lygc is right Miami works in mysterious ways. I remain skeptical but if any admissions office was going to contradict their own rules it would be them.
You won't know until they start asking the questions.
Did you ever get a response?
Same here, when did you submit your application?
Same and submitted 7/19.
I emailed them!
They probably don’t actually score everybody. I’m guessing some apps don’t meet some initial cut and aren’t scored. I’ve been complete since July and not scored. Others submitted much later and have been
I see, so you’re saying they may not even get the chance to see my app because it’s in so late? That would suck bc I’m IS and this is one of my top schools. If the cut off is 504 I definitely meet it though
No I’m saying that all apps probably don’t get to the committee after a more in depth scoring by a subcommittee or something. It’s definitely not based on grades or scores alone. In past cycles some people never got scored despite submitting early
Ah I see what you mean now, I misunderstood and went back to reread previous years. Looks like they review your app and if they like you then you're scored and considered for an II so they definitely don't score everyone. But they do come back and score people later in the cycle it seems. Thank you for your help!
It's definitely not over yet!! I just went through previous cycles and checked it out. Seems like UM goes back later in the cycle and scores more people then offers II. Same goes for people scored early on but not immediately invited.
Did you ever get a response? I also emailed them an update (post-II) but never heard back
3 cycles ago I was complete around this same time (if not a bit later) and got scored mid feb, interviewed early march and got in with a scholarship so don't worry at all yet. its just gonna take some time for them to get to your application
Wow that gives me a lot of hope! Did you ever reach out to the school and explain why you submitted it later? All of my secondaries went in late and I wanted to be honest and email schools why it was late, especially to my top IS ones. Idk if this is acceptable though
yeah so I received their secondary in July and didn't submit until mid October. I just emailed them the update and explained. just make sure its like actually a really good reason for having the delay. If its not a good reason just don't say anything and don't draw attention to it
I messaged you because I have some questions about this
They did email back and said they'll add it to my file. But I haven't received an interview yet nor have I been scored.
Yes, applications are assigned a numerical score that they use to determine if they want to interview you. It's like a rubric with the different criteria they care about and they rate how well you meet that criteria with a number.
Cool! Do we see that score? And if so, where can we view that? Thank you for your response!
No, you cannot see it. It's just an internal thing for them.
They don't show applicants the score, it's for internal use of the readers and admission committee
no that remains confidential to adcom
I apologize if I misunderstood. But I saw number of posts in this thread where members mentioned that they are scored. How did they know about it? I have submitted my application on 8/10 and was thinking that I was not scored as I did not see any updates on the status page.
another poster on this thread (page 9 ) copied what their portal said:
Thank you.
Not all applications get chosen to be scored, if an application is chosen and scored then I believe it will be updated that it was scored on the portal website, and then again just because your application is scored does not guarantee an interview
I have the same. But given their system of accepting the top 20 off their list every 2 weeks, everyone will either be accepted or put on the list tomorrow. So i am guessing there wud be an update either way. Trying not to jump to conclusions myself.
Thanks for the info. May be my app is not picked for interview. My stats are reasonable for the school. 3.9/515/3rd quartile Casper/OS.
