Do they call you if you get the A? Or, is it email/portal?

You can't go wrong with sending a short and sweet thank you letter/email

They said to dress "business casual" for the group virtual session. Thus, I'm planning on wearing a dress shirt with no tie. Did people who already went to the session see others dressing "business casual" like this or did most dress "business formal" aka classic interview attire?

It was just an email and you accept the offer through the portal.

I was complete 7/6 and I think my LM is 70

I was complete 7/3 I’m hoping to get II here. Do they send II through march?

There was a mix—some were def in business formal and others were slightly more casual (like without a blazer). There were def a few guys without a tie, so you should be fine!

You might be confusing me with @TrustGod! (Our profile colors are similar)

 

[billybob321]

If I sent an update over a month ago is it overkill to submit a letter of interest too?

What would you add in your letter of interest that makes it different than your update letter? I also submitted an update letter so I'm asking.

 

[amoxicillin_resistant]

are there any more IIs coming up?

They interview through end of March.

I wish I was invited to a virtual session. Is that part of the interview process?

Yes, their process is two parts—one asynchronous assessment and one synchronous virtual session!

Does anyone know if guests are able to come to second look day?

Does anyone have an idea of when we should hear back if we interviewed on jan. 12th?

Thank you!!!!

 

[harry_potter138]

I can't figure out how to upload a LOI after being placed on the waitlist on the portal. Can someone explain the process this for me please, thanks?

I think you click on "view checklist", scroll down to "Letter of Interest" Section, click on "choose file"

I was complete early July LM 69 and got an II early Jan

do we think it's worth sending an update/interest letter rn if I was complete in September and radio silence since then? also can I clump an update + interest letter in one?

Yes . I was complete back in July and I sent update.

My two cents, an update indicates interest, so save the interest letter for later, and send an update. If your update is significant it might be just what is needed to push them to send an invite!

Does anyone have the link to the secondary portal? I'm trying to find it but for some reason can't find it in any of my emails.

My friend called the office yesterday and they said they will probably only have one more wave of IIs, and interviews will conclude in February

Did they say when those II are most likely coming out?

Did they mention when the next round of acceptances is coming? I know its offically mid-feb but it looks like in past years the january interview decisions have come way earlier than that

 

[deleted1179200]

Did not say, but I’m assuming sometime before mid-Feb

Usually it is one month from your interview date!

 

[TehMal]

Still no II nor an R for me. Submitted secondaries near of September. Still holding out hope for WF. I had interviews to other schools already.

 

[deleted1174679]

Did they send any pre ii rejections yet

 

[Serendipitykitcat]

Could we send post-II updates like about a publication or about a promotion in a current job with new roles and responsibilities? I know Wake Forest accepts pre-II updates. Would sending Post-II update before a decision make any difference or more likely be ignored/frowned upon?

If you feel the update is significant, I would send it in. If it is not, and you still want to remind them that you exist, I would send an interest letter and include a few sentences about the update, if that makes sense.

For second look day, do people usually attend with their parents? I’m just unsure since it says there’s activities is that something parents participate in or is it better to bring your partner? This is my first time attending one so I’m unsure

[nadalfan22]

Is there a second look day (or a tour of some sort) for waitlisted applicants?
