Members don't see this ad.

Does anyone know what kind of schedule their adcom meets on? It looks like only a few people have been given acceptances. If you have an acceptance when did you interview?? I know that they tend to take a bit longer than other schools, but just curious.

Apparently they meet every two weeks and notify 6-8 weeks after your interview date, via snail mail.i hate waiting...

When did you interview? I was there the first week of October and they told us we wouldn't hear until around Thanksgiving. 🙁

I interviewed end of Sept, and they said 6-8 weeks... So hopefully I don't have much longer to wait...

I thought they said the committee met every week though?

yupp, us Gburgers know our bathrooms. I LOVED the bathrooms in the new science building (at gburg). Very nice, very very nice.

 

[ArminTamzarian]

I interview there on Friday. I guess I had better make time to check out the bathroom. Would it be okay to mention it in post-interview letters?

I think they must be holding off on out-of-staters for right now. You have incredible stats and should have been accepted by now.
