Did anyone not receive the post-interview day survey? I don't see anything in my inbox.

For those who interviewed last week, have you received any of the emails they said we would get following the interview day?
 
My faculty interview file was lost so I have to redo that portion of the interview. Wasn’t on my bingo card for this to happen but I’ll gladly do it again.😅

So, is there no way to change campus assignments even if we have completely legitimate reasons to stay in Chicago? Especially if the Peoria or Rockford campus is gonna be a massive inconvenience and you want to attend a program at the Chicago campus?
During my interview, they emphasized heavily that once the assignment is made, it cannot be changed.

Have received no communication whatsoever even after update letter, should I send an email to the admissions office. I’m honestly shocked, UIC alum and complete since early August

Does anyone know if the timing of an acceptance affects campus selection? Are most of the Chicago seats filled at this point meaning that getting accepted later in the cycle makes a Peoria or Rockford placement more likely?
 
Generally about 40 seats a year go to their BS/MD program students who, this matriculating year, were guaranteed selection to Chicago (if they choose to do so). That being said, that should still leave a good chunk of acceptances overall for the Chicago campus (# seats =/= # acceptances is my assumption)

Online it says they do decisions every third Thursday or the month. Has this been true the whole process? Basically want to see if I am having to wait a little longer before I hear!

You’ll most likely hear on Friday the 22nd
 
Sounds like it depends on the campus. I got accepted to Peoria, and there’s a virtual second look on March 22nd and an in-person one on April 12. Many people from Chicago haven’t gotten an email yet, according to the accepted students GroupMe.

I did not receive a groupme link - where did you find it? Would you be able to share the invite?
 
Current M1 here. I'm a part of admissions and it seems like the last scheduled interview day was March 8th. Interviews are likely over for the cycle.

Good luck to those on DD, I got off it early June last year so don't lose hope. This is truly a school where your chances of acceptance are much higher after having interviewed.

As someone on DD I’m curious if you kept in contact with update letters or letters of interest? I’ve been on DD since October and with no communication from UI since then, it feels like they forgot about me lol

Anyone gone through the IMED application process and have any advice on the interview?
 
They may be adding one more interview date. My friend who goes there now said this. How is II sent? Email or Portal?

I sent a letter of intent a month after being place on DD, not sure if it helped or not though. It was mostly for my own peace of mind
