patiently waiting for mineany calls yesterday or today?
Your college solid your info to a bunch of graduate programs. Its not a soft RI just got the Biomedical Masters email smh I have a bad feeling its a soft R 😭
I got a confirmation 10 days before, and then a reminder a few days before. The session is supposed to be 45 minutes, but I think it went for around an hour. The student Q&A is also supposed to be 45 minutes, but went for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. They say you are free to leave once an hour and a half has passed, since that is what is scheduled.For the people that did the meet the dean session, how long does it take? When does it actually start and finish? And when do you get a confirmation?

The dean has your file and usually gives a brief intro about you before you begin to speak. You basically introduce yourself and some of the activities you have done over the years anywhere between 2-5 minFor the people who did the deans session, is it just 5 minutes each to speak about any activity? Or something in particular?
Thank you!!!!The dean has your file and usually gives a brief intro about you before you begin to speak. You basically introduce yourself and some of the activities you have done over the years anywhere between 2-5 min
NopeAnyone hear back from late Nov interviews?
don’t lose hope though, I thought I was surely waitlisted/rejected and was accepted 3 months after my interview.if we are WL do they tell us or do we only find that out in March? I interviewed 11/2 and waiting for what my decision is lookin like
Congrats!! Thanks for sharing that! Trying to keep hope as it’s been almost 4 months since mine.don’t lose hope though, I thought I was surely waitlisted/rejected and was accepted 3 months after my interview.
I am not sure this is entirely the case. some people who interviewed in october and november heard back around Christmas and New Year's eve as per this thread. It seems like they aren't really going in order but again this is all speculation.So from what I can tell, and I hope I’m wrong, if September interviewees are just finding out, I don’t think us October interviewees would find out anything until next month. So I guess if we haven’t heard any WL or R news, we can just keep our heads up and hope for the best
i had my interview and deans session around this time but i have not heard back yetHas anyone with a mid-November interview & late November deans session heard back yet?
Other than don’t get discouraged if you don’t hear back soon haha, just be yourself and have solid reasons for why you did the things you did and how that helped you become the person you are. That might sound cliche but the interview is their chance to really know you more than the statsII a few days ago complete early august, any tips going into the interview?
when did you interview and get the A?!Does anyone know what the overall vibe is of the school? I got the A but I want to go to a school where I feel supported and the students are generally happy
Yesanyone from late nov interview hear back yet?
With an A?
I'm so sorry...I read your post incorrectly...I am still waiting to hear back since before november...With an A?
Congrats! Did you send any updates or letter of interest/intent?Got the A recently! Late October interview, late November dean session.
Thanks! No I didn't send anything.Congrats! Did you send any updates or letter of interest/intent?
I interviewed in Dec and they didn’t have any students available the day i interviewed - it didn’t seem like they planned on scheduling them at allIt's been 2.5 weeks since my interview and I have not received an invitation for student interview. Has anyone who interviewed in Jan. have student interviews?
I had my student interview last week but had to reach out to Admissions to confirm and schedule it! I had my MD interview right before the New Year and they also couldn't schedule a student interview, so yeah I would strongly suggest reaching out to them to "remind" them to schedule you!I interviewed in Dec and they didn’t have any students available the day i interviewed - it didn’t seem like they planned on scheduling them at all
Meet the Deans - 9/27Any late October Dean’s/Student interview + November Dean’s Session interviewees not hear back yet
interviewed the first week of november IS but waiting for some good news hopefully. Afraid it might end up into WL considering the amount of As that have been sent since thenAny late October Dean’s/Student interview + November Dean’s Session interviewees not hear back yet
It’s not really a prompt just introduce yourself they tell you. people during mine just talked abt their undergrad, gap year plans, maybe an activity from undergrad and a hobbyI've read some mention about needing to introduce yourself/some activities briefly on the meet the deans day. Can someone elaborate about that please? Like do they ask you to just tell others about urself or r u explicitly instructed to share an activity that you participate in? And is it supposed to be a clinical activity or can it be any activity. Thank you!
Yeah I had mine the day of my interview. Did u fill out the student interview on ur potal. I think if u did and u still havent had one, it seems like they just didnt have someone available that day for you and u prob wont be getting a student interview at all. but i doubt that would be held against u in anywayIt's been 2.5 weeks since my interview and I have not received an invitation for student interview. Has anyone who interviewed in Jan. have student interviews?
