Little confused for the COVID-19 question : 1. Please share any disruptions and/or challenges you have experienced this application year as a direct result of COVID-19 that you would like the Admissions Committee to consider in conjunction with your application. The following are some examples of topics for consideration, but are not limited to: academic preparations; extracurricular activities and/or experiences; personal and/or professional opportunities; or lessons and insights gained as a result of COVID-19. (1000 characters)

It asks for challenges you experienced "this application year" so would that mean we cannot talk about struggles we faced while in college during the height of the pandemic ? Or did you guys talk about struggles you faced in the past too?

how were the interviews for ppl who did them today / yesterday? were they chill?
they were very nice. I didnt feel like they grilled me, and they seemed to genuinely want to connect with the applications and identify if they are a good fit for the school's mission. If I were to provide advice I would say prepare for some tougher interview questions for the 1:1, but they were pretty nice about it.
 
Does anyone who has done an interview know when they received their pre interview information email?
You will get an Interview Confirmation email right after you pick a day. Two days before the interview I received another email with Pre-Registration information for Zoom. You Pre-Register at least a day before and then you will receive another email with the actual link. Good Luck!
 
Seeing that people got IIs for my top choice makes me feel to cry. How long after you submitted the secondary did you get the II? 😢

Did any any OOS IIs have ties to the state. I have none just seeing if getting an II is even in the picture at this point.

Was anyone unable to attend the virtual cafecito today? My zoom was not working.
I wasn't able to either. I was waiting in the new zoom session that they sent after they corrected the first for about 45 minutes before calling it quits. Stuff happens, it's understandable, hopefully they email us about a future session we can attend.
 
during anyones interview, did the school say for early interviewers results would be relayed to us on October 15? i ask because i was told that during the interview, but i realized October 15 lies on a sunday so idk if this would still hold true

on our interview day they said they’d start on the 16th but bc of the amount of applicants, expect something that week
 
So are results going to come out Monday or is it today? I know someone above said October 15 was a Sunday but I don't think FIU would call or email us on a Sunday...I mean unless they want to be really nice to us and ease our anxiety haha!
