just so everyone's aware lol.. I'm a reapplicant and they send these sorts of emails through the whole cycle! I think about once a month more or less, I ended up getting them until they denied me in March haha

II this afternoon! IS, Milwaukee campus, ORM, LizzyM 75, 1st quartile casper. Submitted 08/02.
 
Did anyone interview yet?
I interviewed recently and got a great impression from all the staff/students that we interacted with. Definitely felt that mid-west kindness coming through on interview day. Interviews were challenging but thought-provoking and went well overall. This was for the Milwaukee campus btw. Feel free to ask any questions.

Did you interview today?
 
For those who interviewed, are you emailing your thank you letter? If you arent and using the portal, are you putting two thank you letters or just one?
 
Anyone have tips for interviews with MCW-CW? Interview is 10/5 and this is one of my top choices so I really want to nail it!
Also new to this but if anyone is interested my LizzyM thing is 61, IS applicant, 4th quartile Casper, II on 9/21, app completed 9/6.

I have heard Anton Johnson, their Admissions Recruitment Lead, give some great advice, "Just be yourself. If they have offered you an interview they like you." Best of luck. You got this!

I used the portal and sent in just one thank you letter. But I addressed both of my interviewers in the letter
 
Hey everyone! I'm a current M1 at MCW (the first class with the brand new curriculum overhaul) and just wanted to say if you guys ever have any questions now or down the road, don't be afraid to reach out to me! MCW was one of my most enjoyable interviews and they truly do care about their students and applicants. As a heads up, their application update emails saying "thank you for your patience" will continue to give everyone heart attacks for the entire interview season. Usually they send out about 3 or 4 of those per season and there's a pause in interviews for most of December/January. Good luck to everyone who applied!

M1 here, I was complete in August last year and didn't get an II until March, so in the grand scheme of things, it's still extremely early. You may just have to settle in for the long haul.

Same lmao...why do they release them so late! Regardless of the outcome I'll probably end up having difficulty sleeping because of this.
