sooo UCLA already had their interviews?? they haven't told me if I'm outright rejected yet. in fact they haven't told me ANYTHING. is this common for UCLA? should I hold out hope or start just getting over it? honestly I'm just a little pissed that so many schools will ghost applicants. have the audacity to reject me to my face

when a student is rejected, schools will usually send out an email around March (sometimes soon, it depends on how the school reviews applications) If you haven't received an interview, you're either rejected or on the waitlist. Email the school.THey'll usually let you know within 1-2 business days. :)

hey, didn't interview with columbia for the first weekend but they do have another set of interviews this weekend so maybe they're waiting until after that? 

You are right. In fact, after posting the question I received an email from Ken saying that they are waiting until they have seen all the candidates. Good luck with your interview!

That response is a bit rude of them... I emailed 2 schools and they answered right away. I know it's common for students to email. Maybe they have a lot of applications this year. Best of luck!!

I just got my first (and probably only) interview for McGill's rotation Neuro program (it was my top choice so im freaking out with excitement). Anyone have any interview tips? In the email it says "It will be a casual interview format with several standard questions and a chance for you to also question us about the program." What would you say are typically considered "standard questions" ? 

Did they tell you when they will notify you of their decision?  Are you an international applicant or a Canadian applicant?

New to the page, but thought I would share my results so far.

Rejected from Vanderbilt, Yale, NYU, Columbia, Northwestern.

Waiting to hear from Georgetown. 
 

 

Good luck for Georgetown!!

Were you rejected from NYU after an interview? I haven't heard anything back from NYU at all since the application deadline and am wondering if it's a silent rejection or waitlist. Thanks.

I also haven't heard a thing from NYU even though others got rejections! So confused
