I don't think there is one. Most people at mine were in business casual or casual. I wouldn't stress over it!

I mean you’ll always find some people in blazers and more business, but that’s not necessary at all. I’d say business casual or casual as well !

So Im pretty sure they said in Interview day that we would get an answer by the end of October ( I interviewed early oct) and its been silence for everyone. Any ideas on when we will hear back.

Looks like they've done Tuesday notifications the last few years, so possibly tomorrow, otherwise presumably some point this week. Hopefully while I still have fingernails left...

Congrats!!! And thanks for the info for the rest of us :)

Also, the person calling goes over a lot of information rather than simply saying congrats and hanging up. So it might take a while for everyone to receive a call so hang in there guys. Hope everyone gets a good result.

I felt good immediately after and then in the weeks of waiting I nitpicked everything I said and started feeling bad, haha. Don't let the neuroticism get you down!

I was sure I didn't get in after the MMI/interview because their unique questions totally threw me off and I felt like I didn't do as well as I could (unique as in all the other schools I've interviewed which is over 20).

ahh this is my top choice and i also interviewed on the 11th but didn't get a call or email yet. If we don't get one today is it safe to assume we are waitlisted?

Wow! You must be amazing. Any advice about your application/stats? Thank u!

I don't have that high of a stat. LM of 74.7 only. However, I do have some unique experiences and additional degree that almost no one has.. lol

Same boat here. I'd give it another hour, but after that it'll likely be a rejection or active status pool email. Based on prior years, the active status pool gets re-reviewed at subsequent time points, but it's not a formal waitlist. It just means you'll be considered during additional rounds. Sounded like those emails would go out tomorrow or the next day.

I felt good right after! Then in the following weeks I started second-guessing myself. I guess I did okay, then, considering!

Same here; I'm hopeful they will call & give As on more than one day...but that could just be wishful thinking.

Just an FYI- I was super upset because I didn’t get a call yesterday and was anticipating an R/active status pool today - but I just got an A email !!

Good luck to anyone waiting for news.

Was also lucky to get the call and the email, congrats to those who also got it! To clarify, if we do reserve our spot, is it a binding decision, meaning we will absolutely commit to going there?

I got the A in an email today!! Missed their phone call yesterday. I actually felt so terrible about my interview I cried lol. But over the next few weeks I convinced myself it wasn’t as bad as I made it out to be. So don’t psych yourself out if you feel you didn’t do as great as you hoped…they won’t mark you down for being nervous. (dunning-Kruger ftw!!)

I got active status pool. Sounds like the active status pool won't be re-reviewed until April?!

Also does anyone have an idea from prior cycles how likely it is to get an A after being in the active status pool? It seems like a pretty long shot given it's not a waitlist and they seemingly won't look at your app again until next spring.

Same here with active status pool: we'll hear back by many other schools by April. It's such a long way till then :/

I was complete 7/13 and got an email. Portal still doesn't say "rejected" or anything, but it's in communication status!

The status page on the portal don't update. All the schools I got accepted, WL or rejected, it still says either your application is ready or still in review.

I emailed them to confirm the April timeline and they got back, saying that the active status pool will be reviewed by the admissions committee at the end of March/beginning of April. So sounds like we will not be considered in subsequent rounds that occur after the interviews, but only after all the interviews are done. Bummed, I really loved this school after the interview. Felt like a great fit.

Congrats to everyone who got in!!!
