Hello everyone! I just had my zoom interview and I surprisingly enjoyed the process. I was told that they are going to send out acceptances by the end of the month. Good luck to everyone!

 

[ronlachot]

Are you from out of state or country?



Still patiently waiting to know my status.

Hey sorry for the late reply but I’m from a cal state in California! Where did you go to school? (-:

 

[ronlachot]

Wait, so you’re an in state CA resident? Lol we were hearing and thinking first batches of acceptance from December were international or out of state. because some other acceptances from December were international lol welll Guess not! Lol Man this whole process is sooo unpredictable

Still patiently waiting for good news.. just saw in another thread people are still interviewing all week. . Sighhh few more weeks guys, stay strong in prayer!,

Yes I am! I know my friend is having an interview this week too so I’m not sure how the process works either. I’m praying you hear good news soon though! Try not to worry it will come and all work out for you !!

If there’s no mail in your mailbox, USPS mail.. that’s still hope. No news is good news sometimes

True. Haven’t gotten anything in the mail. I’m so nervous! I wish they emailed everyone at the same time if they got accepted. I’m trying to figure out the way they’re doing all of this

Congrats to those of you that have been accepted, what an amazing feeling!
To those still waiting, hang in there! It’s a stressful wait... I know
I’m a current student in the program. I also experienced my fair share of stress getting in. I was waitlisted and not offered a spot until mid March, so with that being said, know that some of you may have to wait beyond January. It’s a painful wait.
Stay positive and good luck!!
Let me know if you have any questions 🙂

 

[Finalchuckle]

Mail came in early today with no news.
Congrats to those accepted. Big thumbs up and high-fives to you guys .
To those still waiting for an email, we wait patiently .

Thought that computer emoji was funny

Thanks for your encouragement.
Do you remember if you found out you were waitlisted in January or after that?

I got an acceptance letter earlier this week! I had my interview last week so I was surprised they got back to me so quickly! Still deciding between this school, SMU & Columbia but will most likely choose SMU so there will be an open spot!!
