Just wanted to confirm if there was an active FB group for the Class of 2027 Admitted students?

I placed a request to join using the link included in the admissions email, however I haven't heard back since the end of December. I am assuming the admin working on the FB page was enjoying their break so no problem at all, just want to make sure there isn't an updated FB group. 🙂

Hi!! Yes there is a Facebook group for admitted students. They may have been taking a break so I would wait on it a bit more. I don’t think many people have posted on there so you aren’t missing much! If you don’t get it by the end of this month you should reach out to admissions.

II just now! Reapplicant. I can’t believe it 😭

 

[TiramisuLover99]

I'm surprised there are only 6 pages on this school's forum. I wonder if they have a late cycle or if it's as simple as most applicants are not active on SDN.

Just got the A!!! interviewed 11/29

 

[kirbydoughball]

Thank you!! Just wondering, what do you think is better for admissions odds, in person or virtual interview? Kinda torn. I'd have to fly out there, but if it improves my chances I'll do it

one of the admissions counselors on my interview day kept saying how good it is that we came in person, like saying "obviously we can't favor anyone based on virtual or in person but... you know.. coming in person is still helps a bit. my in person interview was much more fun and fluid than virtual, i guess it depends also on how u think you will perform. i personally was way less nervous bc in person you have time to get jitters out and such. best of luck!

II on 2/7 - super excited for it! I chose to do it in person to get a feel for the campus/hate Zoom. Does anyone have any advice or comments for how their interview went & what I should expect?

Is there any kind of facebook group or groupchat for admitted students?

There is a Facebook group. If you were accepted I believe we got emails sent out to us to join it. You could look it on on Fb or email admissions about it

For anyone who interviewed at Loyola - did they ask about Jesuit values/if they apply to your life?

 

[foultarnished97]

No they didn’t specifically ask, but I’d make sure you’re familiar with it and think about how your experiences tie in to core Jesuit values. It’s def important in the selection process

 

[la vida loca]

For anyone who interviewed at Loyola - did they ask about Jesuit values/if they apply to your life?

I believe it was asked during my interview, but not entirely sure how it was brought up (interviewed awhile ago so can’t recall exactly).

 

[jv1998]

For anyone who interviewed at Loyola - did they ask about Jesuit values/if they apply to your life?

Interviewed and accepted a while back, it wasn't brought up at all during the interview, I am non religious.

 

[so_fia]

Omg...I'm so upset. Loyola never got my MCAT score and that's the reason they are kicking my application out and they said its too late to sort things through. 😭 I thought MCAT score is released automatically...wth

Did you ever get a complete email?

 

[so_fia]

Did you ever get a complete email?

It's my 1st time applying to this school. It didn't even occur to me that I didn't get a "complete" email. The only email I got was, "Thank you for submitting your supplemental application. Your file will be reviewed upon receipt of your most recent set of MCAT scores. To avoid further delay, please submit your letters of recommendation if you haven't already done so. If you have any questions, feel free to contact our admissions office at [email protected]" I trusted that my LOR and MCAT were sent automatically...

I'm really sorry 🙁. Do you mind if I ask you what message your portal displays on top of the checklist? I'm surprised to see that the checklist doesn't include MCAT scores, as most other schools that have portals with checklists do. Maybe that's a recommendation/suggestion that we can send them, so other applicants can benefit in the future?
