Anyone have any idea how many students they take and how full the class is already?
No, but they generally interview students through April.  Many people on the wait list will be accepted as they move closer to that time-frame and after. Students are definitely accepted through June and July as some accepted students will opt to go to different schools, etc. Class sizes are usually about 120 on Tulsa campus, about 50 to 55 on Tahlequah. From: a current 4th-year student admitted after an April interview

Weird thing. I didn't submit any new letters of recommendation to this school (and I have not received an interview), but my portal shows two new letters of recommendation received yesterday. That is an odd circumstance as I have not asked for anything to be submitted and my prior letters were received and accepted back in June or July. Anyone else have an odd addition to their portal? Thanks!

I've had an instance where they changed the date on a letter. Mine came in a few weeks apart, and about a month after the final letter, the portal showed very random receipt dates.
 
They told me they would call within 2 weeks of the interview if applicants are accepted/wait listed. Has this been the case for anyone interviewed earlier in the process? I just interviewed on Jan 14th and have had my phone on me at all times lol, even though I know it's probably too early rn.

I heard back 8 days after, if that’s any consolation. Sending a big serving of good vibes to everyone!

Did anyone receive an email that they are “still under careful consideration”? I don’t have a II but idk if I wanna read into this too much:/
 
Is it too late to apply here? I'm in Texas but this cycle is not going too well for me, so I am looking at AACOMAS schools.

Technically, it’s not too late. If you did apply, you would have to temper your expectations since it is quite late (relatively) in the cycle. AACOMAS deadline is at the end of February and OSU’s secondary is due in March I believe.
 
Still no call or email and today marks two weeks since my interview 🥲 I'm hoping I was told wrong but we'll see...
I'll be honest, I don't remember when I first got a call after my interview (was waitlisted at first), but I know my acceptance call came about 2 months after I interviewed. Because of that, I assume the 1st notification came about a month after my interview. Either way, all you can do is wait & hope! You've got this!
 
I contacted Nicole about what kind of communication to expect and this was her response:

"You will be notified by either a phone call if an offer is extended or an email if you are placed on the waitlist. I expect the admission committee to send out their decisions this week!"

Again I interviewed Jan 14th. Fingers also crossed!! 🤞
 
does anybody know if you can fill out fafsa without knowing for sure which school you are going to?
 
I filled it out and put all of the schools that I am possibly going to attend, idk if that is what we should do lol

you have to add at least one school when you submit fafsa but you can always go back and change/add more + it's better to get fafsa submitted sooner rather than later
 
I wonder if they’re full and will have TONS of students come off waitlist come match date for Texas (February 14th).
Totally forgot about the TMDSAS. There were a few Texans interviewing same day as me if I remember correctly. I will update if I receive an offer anytime soon. Just happy to be on the WL right now ٩( ᐛ )و

Again good luck to everyone!!
 
So did I! Do you know what it means?
omg awesome! no idea what it means tbh😭 i'm assumingg it means that they've finally started to look at our applications and will hopefully give us some kind of decision soon (whether that be a II or a rejection lol)
 
if I’ve been waitlisted since November should I fill out the grad cert application or would that give them an incentive to reject me 😭

I would wait until an official rejection. But if you still don't hear from them by May 1, submit the grad cert application because that 's the deadline for the grad cert application.
 
How long did it take to get a rejection or II after application complete notification?
I believe pre-II rejections are not sent out until interviews conclude in April.

An II depends on your application's ranking (I'm assuming). Some ppl have gotten an II as early as 1 week after being marked complete. Others were complete last fall and are still waiting.
