what do they do during the meeting the deans session? And could I be 20 minutes late without it affecting my application?
Did you have Dean's session this week? Any new information given for time table for decisions? Thx

I did, but all I heard was that Dean Heinrich would call you if you got an acceptance
Has anyone from the Dean's session on 9/27 been accepted yet?

It's pretty chill. just an hourish conversation with a faculty member about your application generally. No trick questions or anything like that.

Officially 3+ months post faculty interview and no decision… is it possible they just lost my application?
I’m 2+ months out with no decision. I read elsewhere that NJMS filled a significant portion of their class through ED, so maybe that’s why few acceptances are going out?

I think they only WL starting in a few months so unless you get an A you get ghosted for quite a bit
Thank you
I guess all hope is lost for early sept interviewers that have not heard back yet? 🙁

It's hard to tell... depends on their review process. It could be that if they're unsure of an immediate A, they're holding onto apps to compare to new interviewees. or maybe they're just waiting to do a massive WL/R wave, who knows. They do have a less than 50% post ii A rate (i think close to 45%)

We also can’t forget that most of that post II rate is inflated by ED. So it’s probably way lower for RD.

How was the dean's session for those that went to one? What should I expect or prepare?
You don’t really need to prepare. He just asks you to speak about one of your activities and everyone in the session has about 5 minutes to speak up. After the deans leave, you have an opportunity to speak with some students some more.
Honestly very chill
Same here
same
Not a hard and fast rule, but I've heard that a lot of people hear about acceptances right around the time that Christmas is about to come. My friend got accepted here last year and he heard back around the same time, and he told me that a lot of other people also heard back around the same time.
Its supposed to a christmas present from Dr Heinrich. So if you're worried you haven't heard back yet, you will likely hear back around then
I will say, I have only heard things. I haven't gotten an interview yet from here though

Thanks for posting this. Hope an interview comes soon for you.
Hopefully! For some reason the NJ schools (so IS for me) have shown 0 love. Interviewed at cooper really early and they wait listed me after. Haven't gotten an interview at any of the other 3.
But I've gotten OOS interviews from a lot of different places. Hopefully AAMC didn't accidentally put me down as an OOS student or something

They said 4-6 weeks when I interviewed. Not sure how the Dean's session will factor in.

Yes thankfully! This is my top choice so I am very grateful
Congrats on the A! Still waiting from my 9/13 faculty interview but starting to lose hope. It is my top choice as well!
Maybe call the school? I’m rooting for ya, although my interview was on 10/18 so feeling a bit nervous haha
