Ahh I know! I did receive an invitation for an interview at Midwestern DG a couple of days ago. However, I still haven't heard anything from St. Ambrose, Rosalind Franklin, or Clarke!
Congrats on the interview!

My friend received a rejection from UIC today. I have not heard back from them yet
How long after you submitted your application to St. Kates before you heard back from them?
Got accepted to UIC today! Also found out Friday that I was waitlisted at Bradley. Still haven't heard from NIU yet
Did you get an email or a letter?
Thanks JoJo11! Congrats to you as well =)
And UIC actually told me via a phone call, but they said to expect a letter within the next week or so

Welp just got my acceptance email!!! So excited! My first acceptance 🙂
I'm wondering about your Mayo waitlist, they told us no decisions would be made until after Feb? Is that what they tell everyone? Congrats on St Kate's I still have not heard from them.... Hopefully that is not a bad sign.....
I'm not sure...I got an email a few weeks after my interview in September saying that I was waitlisted. They told us at our interview to expect to hear back by early October. I'm not sure what their policy is for those who interview at later dates. Thanks!
I submitted the last week in July, and got my acceptance in late August/early September
I have an interview for Midwestern Illinois -Glendale, AZ Feb 28 🙂 Any one else? I didn't hear anything from Downers Grove
Congrats, got mine today too!
Has anyone heard back from UIC about their open house yet?
Got the email the other day that its on the 17th! Did you get it?
Yup! I'll be there. Flights were so expensive 🙁
I got accepted by Midwestern DG in the middle of December after my December interview! I didn't put down a deposit though, it was $1000! I already put down a deposit for Concordia University Wisconsin! I also got accepted at Northern Illinois University!
