Where can we find the UBITName? Is that the site we upload tuition deposit to?
I got an email with instructions on how to access the account and submit the deposit. I would check spam folder if it’s not in your inbox. If you didn’t get an email, I would reach out to admissions.

out of curiosity did anyone get a post II R? or was it all just waitlist?
 
How are you all uploading Letters of Intent? Is there a place to upload? Or just email the admissions office a pdf? Thanks
 
Accepting the offer isn't binding right? Also does anyone know if the deposit is refundable?

Anyone have interview advice? Heard it’s pretty conversational but if anyone who interviewed would be willing to give more details I’d appreciate it!!

My faculty interviewer kinda grilled me. I was the first interview done and had no clue how it went because it was not a conversation. He’d ask, I’d answer, he’d say okay, then proceed to the next question. My student interviewer was super relaxed we just talked the whole time and went for the full time (twice as long as the faculty). I got accepted so don’t read too much into the interview if you’re just grilled.

On the other hand I thought both my interviews were very good but I ended up being waitlisted so this whole process is just so bs

Interviews are just a piece of the overall. Hoping for the best for you! I know there’s a lot of WL movement

My interview was really great with faculty - we took up the entire time chatting. Talked a lot about the research I’ve done, my spring plans, and my dogs of all things! Student interview was more Q&A, didn’t like that as much.

I had two faculty interviewers and no student interviewer (maybe because I went in person?), and both were very very conversational! Don’t stress and know your app really well, I got asked some fairly specific things about my activities and how they related to my future goals. Have a good answer for why Buffalo too.

So as an ED applicant you don't get offered an interview? Idk how the process works for ED applicants who got put into regular pool, just curious
ohh i see what you’re asking. i didn’t interview for ED, they just put me in the regular pool and i got an interview that way

Ooooh okay that makes a lot of sense, for some reason I had thought you received an interview for ED and another one for the regular pool haha

Blasphemous!! Admissions requires Bills allegiance :rofl:
 
If I'm currently on WL should I send them a transcript including my grades from this past fall semester?
 
Just finished my interview and it was a great experience, 2 faculty interviewers in person, first was about 30-35 min and more conversational, second was 20-25 min and more q&a, overall a good experience and the admissions team was very happy to have us. No further info on the curriculum change in the fall
