Maybe if I send them a drawing of a pheonix they'll let me in... (i would get rejected faster due to my horrendous artistic skills)

Does anyone know if Pritzker heavily considers letters of intent in admission considerations?

 

[Mr. Macrophage]

Does anyone know if Pritzker heavily considers letters of intent in admission considerations?

Letters of intent are not binding. Outside of schools that specifically request them, like Mayo, I don’t think they will have much of an impact anywhere pre-WL, unfortunately.

With that being said, as long as you only send a singular letter of intent, it won’t hurt you, so if you have the time and don’t mind putting in the effort, I don’t see why you shouldn’t!

 

[laxgirl123]

Interviewed in September, this was my top choice and first II of the cycle 🙁

 

[dacheese]

Exact same situation here. I think my first-interview nerves and inexperience may have cost me unfortunately.

 

[cashyolan]

"the largest group of acceptances will go out in late February or early March" so we should hear from them likely in a week or so

 

[exileinandersonville]

Exact same situation here. I think my first-interview nerves and inexperience may have cost me unfortunately.

late august and same... hoping for WL at this point

 

[PerfectStructure1396]

+ 1 here too!! September interview, nothing yet. I haven’t lost hope but it’s not as high as it was months ago lol

 

[prayinforanA]

ditto. 1st interview back in August. silence since then. still hoping for some good news though!

 

[zeyaatin]

when i checked prev threads i think i saw decisions usually are released week of feb 20

 

[CostcoChickenBake]

Anybody have a sense of what day they'll start releasing decisions?

My guess based off previous threads is either this Thursday-Friday, or the next.

 

[cemsc11]

My guess based off previous threads is either this Thursday-Friday, or the next.

yeahhhh was also assuming this thurs/fri!

 

[beecell]

+1 pre-II R

 

[feeling_tireddddd]

Did anyone have an experience in their faculty / admin interview where the interviewer didn't ask if you had any questions at the end?

for my faculty I had the time to ask like 1 or 2 questions, but my admin I had something like 15 minutes. It probably depends on the interviewer!

 

[feeling_tireddddd]

We thinking tmrw or next week...

[cemsc11]

[cashyolan]

they called applicants fri feb 23 last yr so i feel like it would be today? but idk... they've usually started calling people earlier than this time unless ppl haven't reported it yet on sdn

right like this feels late in the day...? but also idk would they rly wait til next thurs/fri (I hope not)

 

[earthwormpal]

I think they will wait until next week. A lot of schools release decisions at the end of this month and beginning of March so even though it’s a bit later than normal for them it’s a normal time to get decisions.
