Got my phone call today!! I'm on for August 26 also. What's the best airport to fly in to?

Congrats on the interview!

 

There may be a local airport I'm unaware of, but the closest major one is Dulles (IAD). That puts you ~50 miles from the school, about an hour's drive (depending on traffic).

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to avoid major traffic, so Dulles is not my first choice. It does look like it is the closest though.

 

Its definitely the closest, plus you'll be heading away from the city instead of towards it so I can't imagine traffic will be too terrible.

I second this, especially if you fly in before or after the rush hour. Any of the other major hubs (Reagan, BWI) are farther out. There is a small regional airport in WV you could look into, but you're still going to have a 20-30 mile drive.

For those of you who are interviewing on August 26th, have you received any additional information via email? The woman I spoke to about my interview said they would send additional information at some point.

She told me the follow-up information comes via snail mail; I received it last week-ish.

Great to meet everyone today! I don't know how I did, but I am extremely grateful for everybody being so nice. It was a great experience, even if I was freaking out on the inside. Good luck to all.....

I agree! It was such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, it helped mellow the nerves a bit (helped being the key word :) Good luck!

I agree, it was great meeting everyone and seeing the community involvement at Shenandoah! After checking the forums from last year, it seems like the people who were accepted found out the Monday following the Friday interview by email. Any luck for anyone yet?

Not yet (typing with crossed fingers!) but one of the current students told me on Friday that everyone in his interview group had an answer no later than Tuesday. (I guess they say 2ish weeks just in case?). I hadn't thought to look at last year's thread ... smart!
