Thanks 🙂 I'm also waiting on a Columbia decision! They released on Feb 16th last year, so if the timeline is the same we should hear next week. I had thought they did interviews, but I haven't heard anything yet...
Eve77 Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Does anyone know if Columbia and Pittsburgh have had interview sessions in the past? If there was I guess I should have gotten a rejection since I haven't heard anything......

The director told me they should be making final decisions by end of next week. wanderlust__18 1
PrincessOfThemyscira Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Got waitlisted for MSU, accepted to CWRU; neither one said anything about interviews, tho, so I don't know if that's just not a thing or if they didn't have enough candidates for it to be a requirement

I've been soooo nervous, I applied to ten different places and god willing I'll get into one! I applied to Wayne State, Michigan State, Loyola, Rutgers, University of Pittsburgh, UC Berkeley, University of Wisconsin - Madison, Indiana University - Bloomington, Ohio State University, and Maryland University. Got a rejection from Maryland but have not heard from anyone else. Good luck everyone! We can be anxious together! Have you hear from Berkeley yet?

Kind of wishing I hadn't asked the universe to start giving me my answers, haha! the hits seem to keep coming, but I have six more schools to hear back from.

Still waiting to hear from the other 5 programs! U Chicago said they would send decisions in mid-Feb (they don't do interviews), but not sure about the other places I applied! Question: From where did you hear that UChicago does not do interviews?
