I applied late June, with a complete application and all letters. Has anyone heard back from UK admissions, in regards to them receiving the application?

 

[DSchoolorBust202X]

I applied early June and haven't heard from them since mid-June when they asked for the application fee. They've not told me my application was complete at this point. I'm hoping that they're just getting things together and will get back to us soon.

Did either of you receive an e-mail that said your application is complete?

 

[Formosa1981]

I am OOS, I received Interview invitation e-mail at the end of July and sent back my supplementary two days later. Just wanted to know if anyone receive detailed interview information (like interview date) yet? BTW, I don't think I received an e-mail mentioned my application is complete.

Submitted my app 7/27 and was verified 7/28. I payed UK’s secondary fee that following week. My app has been completed with them for about a month.

 

[Betty White]

when did you submit your complete application?

It bothered me to not give you an exact date, so I went back through my emails and was notified on 7/31 that my secondary fee was received! That was the last email I received from them until yesterday, 9/4, stating I was selected for an interview.

I also received an interview but I haven’t filled out the supplemental yet. I’ll have time tomorrow, but I’m wondering if once you finish filling it out they give you a date? If so what was the date or what are the options? It’s killing me to not know but I don’t have time to finish the questions quite yet!

They give you a date and ask if it works for you! Then you just have to confirm with them. 🙂

Once you fill it out and submit it, they will contact you for a date. I submitted my supplemental this morning and am waiting for them to send me a date!

Thank you!! How far out did they schedule you? I’m from MA so I’m hoping to have time to book a plane such

I'm not the OP, but I'm also from the Northeast so I can also help out with this answer. They scheduled me three weeks out. After I finished the supplemental, I didn't receive my interview date until a day or two later by Missy.

I'm in state and they still gave me about a month of notice!

 

[Betty White]

I'm in state and they still gave me about a month of notice!

I’m OOS (Tennessee) and am about 4 hours away. I know that’s not too far, but they just sent me an email with my scheduled interview date and it’s in 2 weeks, midweek.. No complaints here because I’m grateful for the interview, I just thought that was sort of quick, considering I’ll need to inform my professors and find a hotel.

 

[okiedokeartichoke]

When's everyone's interview days? 🙂

 

[DentlifeKy]

PSA: I’m from the area so if anyone needs any help finding things to do/places to stay or wants any suggestions feel free to DM me 🙂 I love Kentucky and am all about getting people to want to be here!

Do you have any suggestions for a cheap place to stay? These interviews are finically killing me haha as Kentucky is by far the most expensive plane ticket yet!

I would look up some airbnbs! They're pretty cheap usually, and are generally closer to campus than the hotels! Try to stay in the downtown area 🙂
