I'm still waiting on UVM too, and I applied at the same time also. That post made me anxious to hear back too!

Same! I applied around the same time as that poster.  I have done nothing but obsessively check my email and phone. When I looked at past acceptances it looks like UVM accepts from now until the end of March.  The acceptances were all over the place in the past, but I hope we all find out sooner rather than later!

Does anyone know when St. Rose's interview is going to be for the second round of us? A friend of mine has her interview next Friday for that school.... 

I haven't heard back from them either. I'm thinking of calling them next week and asking if all the interviews were already sent out :/

[Puffer Fish]

I finally got my first response!

And it was a rejection from my last choice school. Figures.

Oh well. One down, five to go.

I was surprised and nervous when I got a letter from University of New Mexico already...  only to find that it was actually just a confirmation letter that they received all the materials for my application.  Phew, that scared the bejeezers outta me, although it was nice of them to send one   This is the second mini heart attack I got from them!  They already scared me once when their financial aid department sent me an email saying my application was incomplete (as in they can't process my financial aid app unless I'm fully accepted into the program).  Has this happened to anyone else?

@Puffer Fish Good luck on the rest of your apps!

I emailed them and they said they would be emailing me in the upcoming weeks if they have more room for interviews. But idk if that means they are having more interviews or aren't..... These schools are confusing me. I made plans for march 12th and the week after that so idk what to do.

Talking Cake, I got the exact same letters with the exact same reactions. 

My fingers are crossed that our next emails will have good news!

Oh bummer  I'm going on a trip abroad March 10th to March 20th, so I feel you. I guess I'm not getting my hopes up. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed. 

Has anyone heard from Queen's College yet by chance?

I had an interview with Chapman last week, but I haven't heard a word from other CA schools I've applied to.  I see people saying they received invitations for interviews with CSULB and CSUSM, but I haven't received any emails from them.  Does anyone know if the interviews are given in batches?

Still waiting for an email for an interview from Syracuse.  I hope I get it this week since they sent me one last week saying they will invite people for a phone interview.

i've only seen one other person say they got an interview with csulb (on this board), so unfortunately i don't really know what's going on there  the email didn't say anything about the interview process (multiple batches or not) so i can't really answer your question, sorry! if they give us more info on saturday, i'll be sure to let you know

No, unfortunately, it's one of the very last letters. I'm not sure if they notify in batches or what...

I know someone who is interviewing on Friday at CSULB - apparently it's a group interview.

You should check your spam/junk folder. My acceptance from Iowa was in there.

They gave me 15 minutes to answer a short writing prompt a little before the interview itself.

Congrats, flowerbloom! Do you think you'll end up going? I'm pretty stunned about getting in, especially since I'm from out of field.
