I feel really bad about tomorrow. This was my best interview and I just know I’m going to get waitlisted and won’t hear anything tomorrow. Bombed my Vandy interview, no high rank email from Mayo, waitlisted at UCSD, silence from Emory. Just straight Ls from everything but the midtiers

I feel really similarly 🫂

Pritzker is my dream school and was my first interview (late Aug). I’m expecting a WL because my performance was pretty mid. I haven't heard anything from IUSM or UIowa either, but I'm happy and relieved to have an II at UIC. Hoping for the best for all of us here, but at the end of the day, I think it’ll be okay. Sending good vibes.

Is it true that they send most acceptances in spring?

I went back and looked at last year’s thread, and apparently their large November wave was unprecedented—so I think I was wrong and there actually won’t be any more As yet. But they definitely will make most of their acceptances in 2025 according to their deans, so this is no reason for us to worry 🙂!

I distinctly remember the information session host saying that the biggest acceptance wave would be in November with a smaller wave in October and other small waves throughout the Spring. This was when I interviewed in September

Biggest single wave, yes! If I remember correctly, the waves get a lot closer together in the spring, so I think the total number of acceptances in 2025 will be greater than the acceptances in 2024.

But I could definitely be wrong, my memory is very fuzzy!

When I interviewed earlier this month I think they said that while decisions were rolling, most would be sent out in March (at least this is what I wrote in my notes). Holding out hope for you!!

What would be an appropriate time to send an update letter? I interviewed here about a week ago
 
Does anyone know when a mid-November interviewee might expect to hear back re: admissions decision?

I interviewed late October and I think they told my group in the end of December? unless im mixing things up.

Chicago has a small December wave and then several waves from the end of January to the end of February. You could get the call in any of these waves!

If you’re waitlisted or rejected, you won’t hear back until the end of February.
 
+1 INTL pre-II R received today at 1:24PM. Complete 09/04.
 
+1 OOS ii saturday night complete late July LM 77

any advice on preview day/interview day greatly appreciated 🙂
 
Looks like there was a big rejection wave a couple days ago. Has anyone heard back who submitted in October?
 
Pure speculation but looking at admit.org looks like apps have been reviewed up till mid sept? (There’s one oct complete date but I’m skeptical that it’s a typo). It seems this school reviews purely chronologically so thinking you guys have made it past the Rs. Hoping a wave comes soon so we hear back
