Personal interview
If you applied to the Coordinated Program and are one of our top applicants, you’ll be invited to attend an admissions interview. This will be arranged with the director of coordinated program. Typically, candidates will be interviewed in February or early March.
Departmental review
The time that it takes for an application to go through the review process varies, however placements will be offered by March 15th.
After we complete our review of your application, we communicate the recommendations and denials to Admissions and they update the official record. We do this throughout the application cycle.
Graduate college review
In some specific cases, applications we recommend for admission may need to also be reviewed by the Graduate College. The Graduate College may decide to uphold our recommendation or deny the application.
