For those that interviewed last week, did they say tomorrow they will let us know?

During our session, the dean told us that we might hear back right about now but he didn't wanna confirm it in case something happened. Meaning we can either hear back sometime in the coming days or wait until the third Thursday of April, which is April 20th.

Does anybody know when UIC conducted their last interview day?

I think the last day might have been March 10th but not super sure.
 
Congrats to the acceptances! I interviewed 02/14 and heard nothing and now Im feeling nervous does anyone know if that means its likely a DD?

Congrats to those accepted today!!

Anyone know if the As are given out in one big wave, like this morning, or do the send them at individual times? Trying to determine if there is still hope for this third Friday. TIA [emoji3590]

Some were accepted yesterday and others today. I would say give it til next week and if you don't hear anything you'll probably have to wait the following month. Gonna be doing the same on my end too.

I was wondering if newly accepted students have a chance at getting placed in Chicago or has it been filled already?

Same here. Is there like a student profile they look for? I had a friend with strong ties to Chicago and ended up at Rockford anyway. Kinda scared now that appeals aren’t a thing this year 😭

I am not sure if there is a student profile or not, but are you IS or OOS?

On my interview day some of the students hinted that usually IS students rarely get placed in Chicago and many OOS students get Chicago as their campus. I think this has to do with making the school more appealing to them as an option .

Yeah I'm IS. Do you think campus assignments will be made quicker now that we're nearing the end of the cycle?

Most likely, as it can give people more clarity as to whether UICOM is a right fit for them and where they will spend the next 4 years. But I can also see it being slower since April 30th is coming up and they'll probably invest time assigning campuses to people who chose UICOM as one of their top choices.

I feel like this doesn’t make too much sense when looking at last years MSAR data. 80 OOS students matriculated and even if all of them were placed in Chicago, the class size is 180 making 100 IS students assigned to that campus, which is a little more than 50%.

Maybe they are holding spots for people who apply to GMED? That scholarly concentration is only available in the Chicago campus.

Did anybody get an acceptance email today?

No, looking back at past decisions in the few months, some people hear back on Friday, and most on Monday the following week. I'm hoping we all hear back by Monday and if not the latest would be Wednesday.. If not, I would either call admissions or email.

Maybe.. but I still feel like there would be about the same amount of IS students vs OOS, if not slightly more, since there are only a handful of students in scholarly concentrations? I guess we’ll never know 😅

Yeah honestly, makes sense. I get where you're coming from.

I just want to hear back ASAP on a decision. I have other offers but this is the top choice.

are monday's usually DD's or do they give A's on Monday as well?
 
regarding the 80% acceptance rate, I assume that includes students that were given an acceptance, students that were put on DD then given an acceptance, and students that were waitlisted and then given an acceptance?
I would like to know the immediate acceptance rate without DD or waitlist lmao

I think you also need to take into account the fact that you could appeal your location decision in the past years, whereas this year you can’t. So what’s going on this year is up in the air.
