    Hello everyone, I know Utah doesn't formally notify people on their status until April, however has anyone heard from them yet? I guess they let some applicants know where they stand before. :)

    MedicineBird, I attend the U for undergrad, and actually interviewed there back during the first week of september. Did you go there for undergrad? I would love to talk to you more about the school, if you have time. I know how busy you must be during the first yr.

    Who do they notify of their status before december? I had read somewhere that they do a preliminary screening and send out ~40 letters before the christmas break.

    I don't know if it's that many but, yes, they do offer a group of folks a seat in late December / early January. They have a meeting around Christmas. From what I can tell based on my class, most of us who got the December acceptance letters were from out of state. It may just be a coincidence though. I really think the majority of acceptances go out in the Spring like they say but by having this earlier meeting they break down some of the work. It seems unrealistic to expect a committee to sit down and pick 102 students all at once in 1 big meeting.

    PM me if you have other questions. Good luck! :thumbup:

    humuhumu, hey sorry to bother you, it appears you were one of those accepted, congrats! thats awesome, I was wondering if you could tell me when you interviewed and when and how you found out. Also if you could tell me your stats, if you don't mind. You could send them PM if you want. I would appreciate it!

    Huntr!

    You should know better. ;) At Utah, your stats only count for 20% of your score! You should have asked about humuhumu's ECs and charm factor. :)

    oy vey --

    first off MedBird is a fantastic class pres! how do i know? i am one of her loyal lemmings in the first year.

    anyway, good to hear a few people have heard. we in my house are waiting on pins and needles for my domestic partner (can you say that in utah?) to hear. can anyone tell me (PM is fine) when they interviewed vs when they heard?

    cheers!
