You can get in

I just received the admission email this morning!

I feel you, I'm currently waitlisted at 5 programs. Sometimes I think it would have been better to be outright rejected and then move on with my life. The worst is knowing that you're qualified but not being able to get that acceptance. Keep hanging in there I guess.

I was waitlisted this morning too

I've been waitlisted at the last 4 places I've interviewed and rejected at 2 before that. I'm so emotionally drained by the uncertainty. I interviewed well, but not well enough, and the schools don't give out any clue as to ranking/place on the waitlist so I could either be number 5 or 50, I don't know.

No I'm waiting....

Waitlisted! Keeping my fingers crossed.

Does anyone know if all interview invites or rejections have been sent out? I still haven't heard anything.

I just received a rejection by email. Good luck to everyone!

Interviewing on 10/24! So excited!

I received a rejection but I'm not too upset because I have other interviews. I emailed asking for feedback and got a this response: Thank you so much for your email.

I'm rescheduling for the 2nd too! I'm flying in and I don't want to risk the flight being delayed or cancelled last minute and missing the date. I don't think that they will put you at a disadvantage; it's for your safety.

I'm coming from Minnesota on the 8th! Flying in to Lexington the day before.
