Welcome everyone 🙂. We're lucky enough to have two state schools so lets keep each other updated during this process!

Buffalo and Stony always get wonderful comments so its an exciting time.
 
I'd suggest glancing at the interview thread from last year to figure that one out..or just call them

Seems like they don't start interviews until September/October, we've got a while...

Just an update though, I received an email that my application has been received and is under review.
So anxious already :arghh: SB is my top choice
 
how long did the school take to contact you for the secondary application?

There is no secondary application I believe. But it took them around 3 weeks to send the confirmation email regarding my completed application.

Congrats!!! So happy for you!
I'm on the edge of my seat now. Our stats are very similar and I'm a NYer too!
I'm staring at my phone hoping a woman named Victoria is out there dialing my number...

That's awesome! During our call, Victoria was mumbling something about calling a lot of people today as she was pulling out my information. I guess the first wave of interviews will be sent out today!
