CIShopeful Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 For other 2016 applicants, I called Stanford's GSE admissions office today. They said that there is no formal interview process and we should get our admissions decisions by mid-February. I can't decide if not having interviews makes me more or less nervous...on one hand, interviews are extremely stressful, but on the other there's no way of knowing where you stand until you get their final decision. Good luck everyone! Songbird222 and morifol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck everyone! Agreed, thanks for the information! Well, now I can just worry about being admitted, and not worry about the non-existent formal interview process. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dear_valentine07 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Is that for all GSE programs or just SHIPS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told the person I spoke with that I had applied to the SHIPS program, so it's possible that this information only applies to that. However, it sounded like it was for the whole GSE.

dear_valentine07 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Hey y'all! I called to find out when POLS decisions would be released and was told that it would be the beginning of March. Anyone know what their acceptance rate is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
