What dates are showing up for interviews for people with II? Wondering if everyone has the same options right now and if they will open more dates later

Just a heads up, Northwestern made it clear in their info session today that the vast majority of acceptances will be late February or early March, with only a small amount going out in December. Most applicants who interview before December will receive a "deferred decision" notification instead.

Guys this is my first interview next week, any advice??🥹🥺
Interview is p chill. Only thing I will say is that when you have time during the day, look up your interviewers to get a good feel of what background they might have. You get that info before ur interview starts. Helped me gauge the questions I could ask them too.

A bit of an odd question - does northwestern want to see fall grade updates? Like if I were to send a LOCI?
B/c ngl this semester is not going so well for me LOL

So i know they said don't send your interviewers thank-you emails but should i rather send them an email "continuing the conversation" of whatever we were talking about? like i have an extended answer for what they asked me about my research, i could include that? or should i just chill and do nothing LOL

I could have continued my conversation with them but honestly I was so lazy. By the time I would have sent the email they've already sent their evaluations so I didn't bother. If you have the time & energy to send an email, I'd encourage it though!

i think the question there becomes why you’re doing it!!

i’d assume your interviewer has already written down their evaluation of you within like two to three min post-interview so anything you do after that won’t sway anything. if you genuinely are wanting to ask them something or continue talking then go ahead, otherwise it might come off as disingenuous imo. esp since they make such a point to say no thank you letters i wouldn’t send anything just for the sake of trying to enhance their impression of you.
 
don't know the jargon or tradition, is NEWSLETTER II, info or something else?

Northwestern sends a newsletter to prospective applicants! We’re joking around and pretending it actually means something regarding admissions decisions, but don’t worry, it doesn’t! :)

Is submitting a secondary here with an LM 75 as an Asian a donation at this point?
