hi everyone
along the lines of the "waiting for harvard" thread...i wanted to tell those who are still waiting for stanford that i interviewed there recently and an admissions "counselor"...very nice...gave me an exit interview to chat about the day. he said that this year they were REALLY backed up due to some mishaps with a new application service. So, apps have been heavily backlogged....so no news is definitely good news. he was saying that the committee hasn't even met for their first round of acceptances (which usually happens in late oct). He also said that mid nov interviewees might expect a 4-6 week wait for feedback but it may even be much later...possibly early 2004 before we get word. hope this info helps! best of luck to everyone!

Loomis tell us a bit about your interview experience please.

I am interviewing there in a few days :)
 
Ack, Stanford is rolling?
 
hi everyone,
interview was great. my faculty interviewer was at the va (gorgeous). anyway, very low stress. my impression of the place was very positive. i was worried about comments about the facilities there but when i got there i was amazed by the newer buildings and future plans. true, their library was pretty dank, but the newer facilites and classrooms seemed up to date and very nice. they also have new changes to their curriculum..similar to michigan with a scholary focus. pretty interesting. tezzie, i hope you have fun!

PS i received a bunch of pm's about my app timeline. i was complete in late august, heard back about a month+ later.

Man, I would love to get an interview from Stanford. But I guess at this point no news is good news? I've been complete since late August.
