I was wondering if anyone had a general consensus as to how many people they accept right after their interview date and how many people they accept after all the interview dates are over. I also wonder if anyone has been denied yet after their interview date and about how long it took to hear back?

During the interview she explained to us that she paces herself with acceptances right after the interview day. She didn’t give us a number of how many people exactly. Final decisions don’t go out until November and they do not rank the waitlist. Hope this helps!

So if I was verified June 30th, and there are people that have been verified after me getting interviews and acceptances, does that mean I won’t get an interview or is there still hope? 

The last interview is in a week or two I believe, so it’s probably unlikely that you would get one if you haven’t already. In the interview she said that they got 25% more applications this year but still only offered 144 interviews, so definitely don’t feel bad if you didn’t get one, it was a crazy competitive year!

Can some of you who got interviews and/or accepted share your stats? Kinda sucks to hear wrapping up interviews...

Thanks & congrats!

Hey girl! Don't be discouraged! There was a 25% increase in applicants this year, and we wont know about final interviews or acceptances until November! Never say never!! I put my stats below if you're curious! Everyone I interviewed with was unique in their own way so don't compare yourself! They really tried to find people that were special in their own way!

Hey everyone I am interviewing this week and was wondering if anyone can give insight to the group interview? How many students are in a group? I know we have two interviewers but just wondering how the group interview went over zoom?

There are two other students in the group. So two interviewers and 3 students total. Its definitely more relaxing over zoom, but I do wish they gave more time for the individual interview.

I am also interviewing this week! That is a great question and would be very insightful. Maybe we will get to meet each other on interview day. Best of luck to you!
