Thanks for the advice, all! I found that the list is unranked because it is so small...so I'm hoping that's a good thing! The guy who interviewed me also told me to keep him posted about internships and jobs I acquire (I'm in my last semester of undergrad). I'm keeping with the philosophy of showing my continual interest! Best of luck to all!

Got wait-listed at Medill this morning for IMC. You should be hearing soon I'd think. Best of luck!

I just found out I am on a "short" waitlist, and I'm waiting to find out out if it's ranked. Anyone have any advice for those wait-listed (perhaps ways to show you're still interested without pestering them) or any success stories ?

Anyone make decisions about where they're going yet?

Mrchevyceleb, have you decided where you're going yet? I got wait-listed at Medill this morning

Thanks! I don't really know much about the print program, unfortunately. I do know that Medill School of Journalism is changing to Medill School of Journalism, Media, and Integrated Marketing Communications to reflect that IMC is situated within the school as well...although, I'm afraid that doesn't really help answer any of your questions. All the best for the rest of the decision-making nonetheless!

Ah! So happy to find other Medill applicants here! Congrats on the acceptances! I actually applied to the Integrated Marketing Communications program at Medill (even though I'm a journalism and English undergrad), and I haven't heard anything yet. Do you guys mind if I ask when your heard and if it was e-mail/phone/whatnot?

Undergraduate finishing my last semester and applying to Northwestern for IMC, PR focus. - 3.8 overall GPA - Journalism and English double major and Psych minor - Strong experiences pertaining to the area of study (worked promotions/marketing internship with local nonprofit, leader (marketing director now, but I worked my way up from other positions) of two student organizations that put on major events, helped spearhead Campus QUASH for the Alzheimer's Association through a PR workshop class) - not so great GRE scores: 540 verbal, 580 quantitative - Rec letters should only help - Feeling good about personal statements - Interview went very well - Included the following sample materials: press releases, press packets for events my organizations have put on, and a sample of strategic plan for the Alzheimer's Association Anyone have any feedback on my chances? I'm feeling discouraged about the GRE scores, but they don't publish a minimum or average for the program. Also, I know that typically over 80% of those admitted have full-time work experience, but I'm thinking/hoping my work outside of the classroom through internships and student organizations that work with nonprofits will help compensate... Thanks all!
