[ge71ge]

Let's hope we all get calls on monday... *fingers crossed*

Has anyone who interviewed January 31st heard back yet with an acceptance/waitlist/rejection ?

I interviewed the day before you and haven't heard anything. They did tell me that the wait time isn't necessarily two weeks because they are still considering a lot of applicants.

 

[wolfchild007]

Wrong school. Lol I was talking about BU. my bad everyone!

 

[ge71ge]

I know... that $3000 deposit was brutal 🙁
I'll have to give that up if I get into PENN

 

[bambam987654]

I interviewed post dec but didn't get accepted until over a month later

Hi, would you mind sharing your interview date and acceptance date?

 

[Meat Gyver]

+1
Does anyone know if the class is full?

 

[ge71ge]

Do you think it's safe to say if we dont get a call today and interview that same week (Feb 20) we are on the waitlist?

Remember Corky said she picks the most suitable applicants first, and it might take a little longer for others to process.

Btw, does she only give out acceptance calls on Mondays???

I got a call on a Wednesday. Definitely wasn't expecting it!

Niceee! When was that? and how long was the wait?

 

[ge71ge]

lol two people from my university just got accepted. I guess they give out acceptances other than mondays as well

Do you happen to know when they interviewed?

 

[bambam987654]

Is Penn still interviewing people or are they done with that part of admissions? The class was just half full at the end of January and I wonder how many seats are left now.

 

[ge71ge]

They are done with interviews last week. just gave them a call...

How do you know ?

 

[bambam987654]

How do you know ?

Corky told my interview group. I assume she meant that about 60 people had put down first deposits at the time.

Did you also ask if there are still seats, by any chance? Sorry I'm flooding you with questions haha. 🙂

I have a feeling this was partly about me. I just posted it on Facebook this morning... but I got the call in the middle of February after interviewing in January.

When in January did you interview, if don't mind me asking?

 

[cl4]

January 17. Hope that helps!

 

[ge71ge]

Did they say anything about the fate of the people that interviewed when you did? If we didn't get a call are we waitlisted?

She said no news is a good news... I called them and corky said that since we're the very last batch, it takes more time for them to consider us. they took in two~three of the strongest candidates per week, two mondays from interview (this was just yesterday). I'm hoping to be waitlisted at least. I thought did a fantastic job though... we'll see how it goes. It's only been 7 business days.

 

[Gilbygiraffe]

..

 

[ge71ge]

Yeah. 🙂

 

[bambam987654]

When you guys call, do you ask to speak directly with Corky? Or do you speak with whoever picks up?

 

[namgood]

in my case it was corky.

 

[ge71ge]

corky

 

[Illini0909]

[ge71ge]

Good luck with everything!! I don't know exactly who you are but everyone from our day was awesome!

I have a feeling that you were the red hair from our interview group

Were you notified this week about being placed on the wait list?

 

[Gilbygiraffe]

[bambam987654]

corky

Does Corky usually answer the phone herself? I've called a couple of times and spoken with a woman but I don't think it was Corky (because she didn't specify). During my last call, I mentioned a correspondence I had with Corky so I hope I wasn't actually talking to her haha. Ah the wait is making me think too much about the smallest details...

 

[ge71ge]

when did u interview??

 

[sbh]

If you don't mind, what's your reason for deferring? Does it mean you're automatically accepted into the c/o 2019? Just curious about the deferring process. Thanks.

[bambam987654]

Not sure if your question was directed at me but I interviewed at the end of Jan.

 

[bigexplorer]

I interviewed in January and was notified a month ago. I hope it is a good thing.
