I thought all interviews were virtual?

Most people had cars with them so you won't have any issue hitching a ride with one of the other admitted applicants or current students. People dressed pretty casually at the Open House I attended months ago. Wouldn't wear pajama pants but you definitely don't need a suit.

I also interviewed 2/9 and haven’t heard anything. I thought I remembered them saying we could expect to hear back as soon as early March, but I could be remembering incorrectly.

Do you think if I have not heard back since my interview in October, then that would usually mean an R or WL?

Seems like since they started doing virtual interviews, the vast majority of people who are accepted during/after February interviewed 1-2 weeks prior. I wonder how much of this is selection bias because the trend looks very strong.
does this mean that it's a good sign if one hasn't received that R yet? Since we have dodged a couple R waves.
What do you mean?
Like, people are completed the same day as us have been given Pre-II Rs. However, some of us are still waiting for any action post secondary. Maybe we're still in consideration?
What I learned most from this is that typically, Dartmouth will accept roughly 5 individuals from an interview cohort during Fall Interviews.
If you're not accepted within the early time frame (either 4-5 weeks after your fall interview or roughly 2-3 weeks after your feb/march interview), you're likely to be a WL. Some have reported acceptances outside of this (like a November acceptance at the end of Feb), but this seems to be rare (per SDN reports).
1/3 of interviewees are post-II rejected in the spring, typically mid-March and/or mid-April, after they convene to discuss all of their interviewees for the year (likely determining where the numerical score rests for As, WLs, and Rs).
For those lurking about interview invites - they typically continue to extend them through march with a final interview day on the last Thursday of March.

I would imagine they would need to accept more than 3-5 people from each interview cohort, no? If they interview ~750 people (say, 30/week for 25 weeks) and accept ~250, they would need to accept ~10 people from each week’s interviewees, assuming they don’t admit a huge portion of their class from the waitlist. I’d imagine this is where SDN’s small sample size might lead to an incomplete picture of their process. Fingers crossed for all of us, though!

I have already sent in a letter of intent back in december after my interview. I have a research update where I am presenting at a conference. Do you think it is worth sending this as an update and reiterating my interest?

Does anyone know what time in the day they typically send out responses?

Nobody on SDN has reported an A since 2/10, but it seems like they usually go out in the morning. Based on Kelrilyn’s post, it’s possible that they sometimes take a break from handing out acceptances in late Feb/early March to finalize WL/R decisions, but it’s really anyone’s guess.

If anyone has purchased the MSAR membership, would you be able to let me know how many international students interview and how many are accepted? Thank you!

There isn't data on how many international students are accepted, but 645 were interviewed and 92 matriculated
To clarify, 642 total applicants interviewed for a total class size of 92 matriculated students.

post interview rejection this morning too. Interviewed 2/16. Wasnt meant to be, good luck to everyone else!
Anyone from 2/23 hear back yet?
Does anyone know how this school handles early interviews that still haven't heard back yet (August)? Most likely WL or dragged out rejection?
