Interviewed 2/8, accepted 2/14
Just a handwritten note saying congratulations.
I’m still waiting to hear anything. Honestly thinking about a different option
I am starting to agree with you. I got into SGU and was going to hopefully compare the two but there are concerns that keep popping up at LIU.
I completely agree.. I have other options but LIU was my closest option but there are so many concerns. They recommended I retake a course because I took it over 6 years ago but I don’t think I’ll be hearing from them, so I’m torn about dropping the course. I just want answers
Im in the same situation
LIU is a brand new school, has no facilities built, won’t have a teaching hospital, is extremely expensive, and is in an area with a high cost of living. I would strongly recommend going to one of the other schools you’ve gotten into.
Can you actually seriously, realistically see yourself attending LIU if you were to receive an offer of admission over the other schools you've already been accepted to? If not, it's almost definitely not worth the time and cost to go to the interview, especially given the other concerns.
I'm not applying, but if you have 2 acceptances already and would not attend LIU even if you got accepted then I wouldn't go to the interview. If you think you would still accept the spot then go, otherwise I would save the money you would be spending from traveling
I didn't realize that it was a video interview. Regardless, it's still time and effort on the part of both you and your interviewer(s); I suspect that they'd probably be able to pick up if you weren't genuinely very interested in and/or skeptical about their program (no shame in that, by the way; it's totally understandable given the COA and what's been circulating in the rumor mill). If you simply really want to do the interview for practice or whatever, then all the power to you... but, at the same time, if you're already very confident that you will attend another school, then I don't see a reason to bother; I declined interviews at a couple of schools when I received an acceptance at my IS school back in the day. I promise you that no one will bat an eye at it, if that's one of your worries. It'll also potentially open up an interview spot for someone else on the off-chance that LIU is employing an interview waitlist.
Yeah that takes the cost part out. I personally still wouldn't do it if I wasn't totally interested but it could be good "practice interview" time. Is there an interview waitlist for LIU? If there is then I would definitely recommend giving up the interview spot for someone else who might be waiting!
I don’t mean to sound like a broken record, but at least both Ross and SGU exist...
No! I talked to Felicia on Monday and she told me that my application was just getting passed along to the committee.
Typical MMI. I didn’t really prepare, because I’ve always been told to go into an MMI open minded. The interviewers were really nice.
Did you apply in January???
They already have dorms/ graduate housing. But in general the cost of living on Long Island, especially in that area, is very high
I talked to Kate and she told me all applications are currently under review and I will be notified when a decision is rendered.
Hopefully The suspense is killing me.
I Use the email they provided when I applied to contact for them for questions.
