Did you get an update or something?
 
does anyone know if they do more than one admissions day per month? aka it looks like september and october interviews got results like a week between each other and I'm (clownishly) wondering if the same will hold true for november/december despite november interviews looking like they were early in the month and december ones being later

Anyone have any idea when mid-late November interview As are dropping? Or just speculate or make something up to make me feel better, the suspense is killing me 😭

Does everyone get the "Your application has passed the initial admissions review and is in the final review stage" email out of formality? Not sure how to take the email

Got that email in November and got an II today, so I think it just means that they are still reviewing your application. Maybe they do a screen for basic requirements as the “initial admissions review” or something. But I really have no idea
 
Has anyone who received the "passed the initial admissions review" email in early december receive II? I have a feeling that the email indicates moving forward with the process (Hackensack did something similar last cycle), but not sure if they go in order.

I got it in early December and got the II like a week or two later but previous reply got their II months after the email so it doesn’t seem like it’s chronological
 
my educated guess would be that the "passed initial review" email means you're in the pool for an II and then they stratify further from there as to who actually gets one when (like the opposite of a pre-II hold).......could also literally just mean "we've just now actually read your whole application"
 
I had my first interview at HMeridian on 11/17 and a second interview on 1/18, but I've been in nervous overdrive since then waiting on a decision, so can someone please tell me how long it takes them to do decisions?

Is the email the preliminary review complete? I didn’t get this other initial review email? so it sounds like good for you!! Unsure lol just got into sdn ing
 
Can anyone help me with some advice on what to expect for the second interview compared to the first? Also, they didn't tell me who my interviewer is this time 🙁

They asked very similar questions tbh. Made me think that they just forgot what my interviewer said the first time around about me.
 
Any interview in september/october and never heard back about a second interview?

No it’s like a later email with subject line “application update” that says “…It is always our goal to keep you informed throughout the application process. Your application has passed the initial admissions review and is in the final review stage…” it seems based on this thread to go out at some point prior to (potential) II but idk if that’s the case for everyone
