I interviewed at Pritzker in mid-November...has anyone who interviewed at the same time heard from them yet?

I interviewed at pritzker November 24, and I heard from them on January 20 (the letter was dated Jan. 15 though). Hope it helps

Do they call if it's an acceptance? I heard they do, but ify says (s)he got a letter...

In any case, I hear they're about 3 weeks backed up because of the holidays, and that it can take up to 10 weeks post-interview to hear re: nov. and dec. interviews.

I interviewed in early December and I got the acceptance call last week. I'm still waiting on the paperwork though.

Also, on the day I interviewed, they mentioned it would be 6-10 weeks before people would hear so there is still plenty of time.

anybody else hear anything? please share!!

I interviewed late November and heard back late January, by letter dated Jan 15th. I'm hard to get ahold of by phone, so they might have missed me there.

I interviewed Jan 26 and am wondering if anyone who was there then (or later) has heard back from them?

 

[eunibo]

is U of Chicago still offering interview invites? Anyone know how long their interview season lasts until?

thanks for the help!!

I got an e-mail from a student in the adcom. I deleted it but from what I remember, they are either just rounding up, or have finished the interviews. I'm sorry I don't remember exactly what it said, but it was one of those two things.

A friend of mine interviewed in late Jan and was called Friday

Have they begun to offer acceptances to alternates yet? Thanks.

 

[OldLady]

anyone else there end of Jan or later and hear back one way or the other?

Anyone here from them. I also interviewed the last week of January and still no news...

 

[OldLady]

This is 6 weeks, but I have seen from other posters we may be looking at 8-10 with them. Hopefully something will come by 3/15

 

[nmcorp33]

Thanks for the update. I hope it isn't another waitlist letter like NU. I really hope.... Thanks for the heads up.

 

[OldLady]

tried calling, got the "email us for status" message. Anyone hear anything?

 

[OldLady]

I got a phonecall from Sylvia Robertson today, I'm in!!! Anyone else hear from them?

 

[TheFlash]

Congrats! I interviewed in mid-Feb, and am expecting nothing more than a waitlist since it was pretty late. I really did love the school, though.

Hi OldLady,

Yep, that's me! It's a close call for me between U of C and Mayo. I think Mayo has the stronger clinical facilities, better name recongition, and more research in the areas that I'm interested in, but U of C is near home, Chicago is *so much* nicer than Rochester, U of C has a larger class, and I have a couple of friends at Pritzker who absolutely love it.

Good luck with job hunting! What sort of work does he do?

Congrats!

edit: nm, got your pm.

Hubby & I are engineers. He works for a top Semiconductor company (you can prolly guess which one) I think U of C's hospitals are very well regarded, though, and many in Chicago will allow you to see whatever you want. As for research, well U of C has Nobel Prizes up the wazoo, so don't worry too much about that. But I hear ya, I actually really liked Mayo and Northwestern. Guess my profile is more UofC-like. Rochester would be tough, esp if you are single...

Anyone else hear from UofC recently? I know the adcom meets every two weeks, and this is one of those weeks....

 

[TheFlash]

Anyone hear from Pritzker this week? Post if you did.
