I'm am very interested in knowing this
Based on past years, it appears that they send out decisions every other Thursday. Pretty sure that tomorrow will be an "every other" Thursday, so fingers crossed for some good news!

I interviewed on 10/17 and I am pretty sure one of the admissions members mentioned a adcom decisions meeting happening right at the start of November, suggesting that we may hear something in a week, i.e. Thursday November 3rd

Anyone else interviewing tomorrow and not have that zoom link/info email we were supposed to get "this morning"? I know they said to email/call the morning of if we still don't have it but I'm getting nervous
When I interviewed they never sent it to me. I just emailed them and they got back super quick.

How long after the interview do people usually hear back? I interviewed mid October and was just curious

I’d also like to know about how many people are accepted after being put on active hold. I interviewed in September but I’ve been on active hold since like the first week of October.

Seriously be yourself and authentic, its the most laid back interview I've ever encountered. When you find out your interviewer have some questions for them that can pertain to the school, area, or just the interviewer. Know what you could provide for the school and why you want to go here (cannot stress enough).

I personally did not have a laid back interview. My interviewer was very obviously trying to throw me off and test me under pressure. I was literally asked a series of 5 random biochem/physio factoid questions following a random hypothetical question. I was asked about other schools I applied to, if this was my first interview or not, if it was my favorite interview... it was extremely unnerving and stressful. Not conversational at ALL. That being said this school is in my top 2 so... I hope I did well... even though I had a very negative experience.
 
They just posted the admissions profile up until 11/10. Only 39 people have been accepted so far.

I'm gonna throw up.

Last year the accepted/interviewed was 45%. So far this year it's 30%. Are they just pickier at first? Or does that just show a lot of people get pulled from the WL?

Both these statements are probably true but who knows.

anyone going to the open house next weekend? what should we wear??
 
What's the difference between acceptance offered to acceptance received? Are those people who have committed their choice?

I could not find any information out about this online. Is it invite only? I have an II and would like to tour since I won't be able to in a virtual interview.

As of right now it means nothing because you cannot fully commit yet in the CYMS tool. That value will not hold much merit until nearer to April i think

I got an invitation after my interview! Not sure if they will be doing another one but I would imagine they will at least have other opportunities to tour

They said they’re doing another one in the Spring
 
Got put on active hold. :( I don't really understand what this means... It's not even being waitlisted right? It's like worse than waitlisted but better than rejected? UGH.

Active hold is just their version of being waitlisted

I was put on active hold before being accepted :)
 
Still on active hold after interviewing 9/14. I want to go to the open house on Saturday, but I don't know if it'll just make me sad lol
I feel like it would potentially help your app to go to show you really care
