Does anyone know how long it takes to get approved to join the accepted students Facebook group? Not sure if I was supposed to do something else before getting accepted

Takes a couple hours/a day or two. I assume they just check if you have gotten accepted or not.
 
Can anyone who has interviewed tell me whether you are able to take notes on an ipad/computer or paper throughout the day?? I’m wondering if I can bring a bag with me but don’t want to be the only one lol

I brought a leather binder type thing with a notepad for interviews in a small bag. Ended up being very helpful so I could copy down the student interviewer's information as they had issues with their TJU email and preferred using their gmail. While I didn't see an ipad, mostly physical notes, I'm sure it would be fine. There's a lot of info being given and they did seem happy for you to take any notes you might need.
 
If anyone has info or advice on what students do for off campus housing, please message me thank you!
Current student here. The student coordinators will probably put something together for both on and off campus housing closer to the summer. Philly has a ridiculous amount of options though - even just looking on google maps around campus will give you 20+ options in a 5 block radius.
 
Got any significant advice for the interview? I'm interviewing March 1st and this is my top choice as well
It was very relaxed. Just know your app but also know how to be a person. It’s not all talking shop I guess is the way to put it. My interviewer and I discussed magic the gathering (my namesake on this forum) for like 10 mins because his son plays. Truly it felt like they just wanted to get to know me and what I’ve done both in an academic and outside of it.

I love magic the gathering, I play also!
 
I sent a letter of intent directly to Dean LoSasso via email and it says “email received” in my student portal. She responded as well. Do I need to send it separately to the regular admissions email?

Just asking because when I sent a letter of interest through the admissions email a couple months ago it said "Letter of Interest uploaded" on the student portal. I’m probably overthinking lol, just want to make sure it’s seen by the committee during review
 
If it said letter of interest uploaded, you should be good I think

It’s a letter of intent, but this time it just says “email received” probably because I emailed it directly to Dean LoSasso. Not sure if I should email to the admissions email as well just to be safe?
 
My letter of intent was also like that and I got in like 2 weeks later granted I sent it the day I interviewers

Ok that’s good to hear. Just want to make sure it gets seen.

I also sent it the same night I interviewed. Jeff is for sure my top choice so I figured I’d let them know as soon as possible.
 
Pre II R. Good luck to everyone else this cycle!
