This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
From what I can tell...two people have been accepted to Emory, so the December letters have definitely gone out. Best of Luck to everyone!!!

did u get ur letter yet?
 
Nope - still patiently waiting.😳
 
interviewed on 12/08
 
Nope. I live in Massachusetts.

congrats to you.. but i guess not good for me since i'm from georgia.. if you've received mail already then i guess it means there's nothing for me this round =(
 
hey - a girl i know who interviewed there told me the same thing that the adcom was supposed to meet on the 19th (today). just wondrin tho - if you've interviewed and haven't heard by a certain date at the end of that month, does that pretty much mean you're waitlisted?
 
I interviewed on December 1st and got an acceptance letter on the 18th 🙂 , so I think they mailed out already for this month.

Not necessarily. They consider you at each meeting, and waitlist/rejections don't go out until the end of the season.

Interviewed 12/6, received my acceptance yesterday. :luck:
 
I got the letter, yay! Interview 12/8 🙂
 
does emory send out interview invites via snail mail or email? thanks!
 
Yea looks like they already mailed out. Man I'm dissapointed, Emory's my top choice and I was hoping to get in first round. I'm from Ga with a 4.0 and 33 so I thought that would be enough to get in no sweat but now I have to wait till like Jan. to find out again maybe. Is Emory your top choice too ahhh123?

Yep it is my top choice!! boo.. hopefully january will treat us better
 
Is Emory known for a late(ish) cycle? I still haven't gotten an interview here...
 
I still haven't gotten an interview here...

I don't know when you applied, I think it took me about 6-8 weeks since submission to get the interview invite. I submitted in August, though.

Any school that takes upwards of two months to both acknowledge receiving a check and then download rec letters is late(ish) in my opinion.

their interview season is till the end of february..so i would say they're not consider late.. good luck though!!
 
Did anyone hear from Emory yet? I think their acceptance letter for this round is out already.. ahhhhh.. good luck!

Where is emory located again?
 
I submitted my app late because I was an august mcater.. was invited to a late jan. interview, but rescheduled for early february because of upcoming exams. I went there for undergrad and would love to get an offer from there...anyone have any tips for the interview?? thanks guys!
 
Anyone accepted recently? I'm still waiting from an interview back in late October. It'd be great to hear soon so I can start making plans to go, but the host I stayed with didn't hear back till March...

Good luck everyone
 
Chester why'd you say you were waiting on an interview from emory but your mdapps page said you interviewed there already?
 
Seriously people, it's called "Google."

i heard emory is spending 100k to build a statue of their unofficial mascot named "dooley" which is a skeleton...? is this true?
 
LOL, I went there for undergrad...so that is where my tuition was being saved to go to...:laugh:

Seriously man, why don't you "Google" it, I mean sheesh.

100% true....im an undergrad at emory and they spend money in ways that will make your jaw drop sometimes...i guess thats what happens when you have more money than you know what to do with....alot of students said the idea (and price) was ridiculous so it might not actually happen...

oh i see... i heard that they changed their shuttle routes and now students at their "clairmont" campus have to wait like 30 min to get on the shuttle? is that true too?

Isn't Clairmont Campus where med students choose to live?
 
Google?

I am pretty sure its Atlanta, GA.
No dude, trust me -- I interviewed there, and I know what I'm talking about. The campus is located entirely within the Googleplex. Google bought the school last year and relocated. It's a pretty sweet program though. They make sure you have plenty of downtime -- lectures are filled with people throwing paper airplanes, and 20% of your time there goes to working on your own medical projects. Really tough interview process though.

Undergrad juniors, seniors, and graduate students (plus some professors) live in Clairmont Campus. I lived there my last two years at Emory...it was nice.
 
Fellow alum here from Emory and yes, Clairmont is where med students will live if they opt too; however, they'll be on the graduate student side. I lived there when it first opened it's doors for my last year of graduate school. It was very nice - although I think the rooms are small. As for the shuttles, I did not need to wait 30mins to catch the shuttle. The shuttle that runs from clairmont campus is the most frequent shuttle @ Emory. I guess it would depend on the time of day you elect to ride the shuttle as there are heavier times during the day for riding the shuttle as one of the parking decks located at Clairmont is for staff parking so they ride the shuttles as well as students.

As for what Emory spends their $ on....I always thought my tuition dollars went to the landscaping of the University. They are always putting in new plants somewhere. :laugh:

well i hear that they are tearing down freshman dorms, so the freshman must live in the soph dorms, and the sophs will be located to clairmont which pushes the grad/med students out
 
Did anyone else who was accepted get an e-mail from one of their interviewers?
 
Anyone know if these guys are still interviewing?

I'm holding out for them.

yes, they're still interviewing.. it doesn't stop until the end of february.. someone got an interview invite last week..scroll up to see.
 
Although I think they sent them a couple days before the posted date last month, b/c ppl got the letters the day before the posted date.
 
Does anybody have that US news and world report or whatever set of statistics for the number of students who applied interviewed and were accepted to emory?

All I can find in USNews is the acceptance rate, which is 8.2%.
