Not quite. From the thread, it seems to me that the adcom is not reviewing apps in a strict chronological order but instead based on some unknown priorities. So don’t lose hope just yet! I’m sure they’ll get to our apps soon.
I did it and got a II like a week later.
When was your interview?
I got the A via email
How do you know that you were on hold? Haven’t heard anything yet myself (complete in July)
Stats ? Or LM?
LM 73, OOS, URM
More or less. I interviewed 9/27 and heard back 11/23. So definitely closer to the 8 week mark
Great, thank you!
I interviewed very recently and thought it was honestly a very relaxed day. I will say that at least for me there was not a long gap between interviews and information sessions so you might not have time for lunch that day (or you would just have to eat it quicker!)
In the email it says: "
Yep, they sound out a zoom link in an email. It was sent the Friday before my interview, so it's normal if you haven't gotten it yet.
Just curious were you selected to have the student interview?
Complete same time but haven’t heard anything. I sent an update a while ago I assume I’m next for an R lol
I did!
I did but I had a completely different experience than the above poster. It was more like a traditional interview where we had to answer questions. But it was still very conversational and relaxed
I had the student pilot interview and mine was very much like @neuriobioliogy described. Super conversational, wasn't asked 1 question. We just spoke about the school.
If you don't get an email by the Thursday before your interview, then you should not have a student interview. You will receive an email from a SLU student if you have one. Hope this helps and Good luck on your interview!
Yeah I had a student interview. It was kind of a mix of what the other comments have said. I was asked some actual questions but it was very laid back and casual. There was a lot of time spent just asking the interviewer questions as well.
They said you are supposed to get an email by the Thursday before your interview, but I received notice like Saturday or Sunday before my interview, I don’t remember the exact day, but definitely after Thursday, so I remember I am pretty surprised
I had one and it was different than all the above lol. My interviewer asked us some ethical like questions and then the other interviewee and I played 20 questions.
My student interview was super laid back. We really just had a conversation and answered some funny questions that were super light hearted lol. My fellow student interviewee was also such a cool person.
I can also attest to my student interview being super chill and laidback. We answered a few questions, but it felt more like having a convo with someone you just met at a coffee shop. The student encouraged us to ask him questions about SLU, so most of the time wasn’t even really like an interview.
1) Congratulations on your II !!!
Congratulations on your II! How far out were you scheduled?
Thank you for patiently answering my questions! For some reason I can't see the video interview tab in my portal. I guess I will email them about it.
II 12/15. Interview date is Jan 18. December was full and February was either full or they haven't opened it up yet. Two spots were available in January, so I went with one of them.
1- Congratulations 🥳
