Do we have to send official transcripts for fall semester?
I'm pretty sure they want official ones

Edit: I checked my email from last year and it DID say official ones in that email.

Edit 2: Also said last year to wait until Jan 3 to send electronic transcripts if you were doing electronic instead of paper so the link didn't expire while the office was closed for the holidays.

I thought I saw that last year too! Guess I'll go official just to be safe, and spend more money I just love doing that!! :help:
 
1300 people applied this year!

Wow!! Out of curiosity, do you know how many people usually advance from phase I to phase II? I saw that OOS interview invites are generally in the 200-250 range, so I was just curious about the amount of people being considered.

Not sure on that one.

I could just be making something up in my head, but I have a vague memory that about half of people pass on to phase II.

I also think we had about 300 students interviewed (total) last year, both in-state and out of state.
 
Has anyone heard anything regarding interview invitations yet? This wait is killing me!
 
Just got an OOS interview offer!! I'll be visiting a friend in Chicago for the weekend! Is anybody going to be going from Chicago -> Urbana for the interview that weekend? I was thinking of taking the train to get to the school or if anybody has other transportation recommendations that would be awesome! I also have delta flight miles so I don't have to pay for a flight if I fly into Chicago instead of Willard.
 
Does anyone know if it is standard interview format or MMI?
 
Oos interview invite! I wonder how they are going to interview everyone in just one day? 😵
There are probably like 25ish sets of interviewers and they do 2-3 interviewees per hour each. Some people had 15 minute interviews, some went as long as 45 minutes. They make it work!

Standard, but closed-file.
 
I see that you go to U of I, what is the best way to get from Chicago to the school if flying in from OOS?

As an OOS student, I actually noreally drive (I hate flying). The couple times I have flown out of O'Hare, I've taken the greyhound bus

Amtrak is ALWAYS running late plan for that and you should be golden 🙂
 
Although I already emailed them saying I will definitely be going to my in state, they still sent me an interview invite! They must’ve forgot or something? Lol but I will be contacting them again turning down the interview to hopefully give someone else a chance 🙂 best of luck to you all!
 
Hopeully this year has better results. Any of you apply for Mizzou? That's my top choice this time around and I already had my interview 🙂
Nice, I bet you did awesome in your interview! I however did not apply to Mizzou because I learned my lesson last year after they flat-out rejected me, which btw I am not at all salty about 😉
Who else are you waiting to hear from?
