They scheduled one last set of interviews for March 31. Did anyone who interviewed on 2/24, 3/3, or 3/10 hear back already? Or is the school waiting until after the last set of interviews to send out letters?
 
2 of my friends have interviews at MN. One soon?/recently? and the other on the March 31st date.
 
I had the interview on 2/24 and haven't heard anything yet!..I guess we have to wait.......anybody knows how many people they are interviewing on march 31st.
 
When did people get their letters regarding the March 31 interviews?

It said on their website that applicants should find out either way if they are to have an interview or not BY March 20th. I called there this past Tuesday, and they said a decision was made, but they can't tell me over the phone if I have an interview or not.

The problem I have is that I'm supposed to leave for vacation on the 31st, so I need to know as soon as possible if I need to change my vacation.

So if I don't get a letter in the mail on Monday (the 20th), do you think I could convince them to tell me over the phone? I live in Iowa, so it isn't as though it would take more than a couple days to get the letter.

Thanks for any info anyone can give....

They will email you if you get an interview, not send a letter.

I got an email on Wednesday (the 24th) inviting me for an interview on the 31st at the Duluth campus. I hope that helps.
Does anyone know how far Duluth is from Minneapolis in term of driving time? The fares to DLH are crazy.
Thanks

You probably want to mapquest it, but if I remember right its about 2-2.5 hours, less if you drive really fast.

I suggest Tobies in Hinckley for coffee and pastries, if not on the way up, on the way back. Tasty. 😛

Hi Laua,

The Duluth campus turned out to be better than I expected. It's pretty small but the students I talked to seemed to like it there and has a lower cost of living compared to Minneapolis, not bad for a student 😉 .Students of the campus get to ride the bus for free, so a lot of the students don't own cars. The Interview went pretty well, my interviewer was really nice and very laid back, well I guess getting an acceptance will confirm that.
It's pretty cold but if you live in the midwest say in MI, OH or IL it's just a tad colder.
In all I liked it and would be very happy to go to the Duluth campus if accepted.
