Has anyone who had an interview in February heard back from Maryland yet? I had my interview on Feb. 20th and they said 2-3 weeks is the soonest we could hear back if you get in. 85% of the 130 student class was already filled at that point. 😱 So if you get in... add your date of acceptance on along with the date of your interview.....

It took them a little over 3 weeks for me. March 5th is the deadline for my round, so I'm sure around then you guys will see them.

Oh ok, cool. I have my fingers crossed and hoping for the best now. I was wait-listed last year at MD so hopefully the admission's committee will take that into account.

Pharoh - I was the guy sitting next to you from MD... if that refreshes your memory. 😀

There are indications that they accept in waves. Their acceptance emails have a small tag on it indicating which wave they accept in, which (I'm guessing) they use to indicate to themselves certain important information. For us, there's a tag saying "Febuary", which appear to indicate the beginning of when we only have 2 weeks to respond. If they said you won't hear back from them til at least 2-3 weeks, it's because they're waiting for offers for this wave to expire. Then, they'll accept more based on how many seats are still available.
