its hard to get that estimate. Seems like its dependent on geographical area and competitiveness of the applicant. I interviewed in April and got accepted but i also had May acceptance to Ross and AUC. I was gonna fly to Ross in four days when i got my acceptance. (I interviewed in TX).

Finally decided to go to SGU, a month and a half after receiving an offer. Guess I'll be seeing you guys this August then.

Interviewed on March 31st and still waiting to hear back. I faxed them a copy of my Ross acceptance to Ross' Sept. 08 class on Monday, so we'll see if that expedites SGU's decision at all.

It's going to be a fun season.

And I thought I was the only dork who was planning on setting up my study schedule to make room for football on saturdays and sundays. Good to know that some of my kind will be there. On some level our SEC smugness has to be somewhat endearing to others, right? Yea.....I didn't think so.

Oh btw, grew up in Atlanta, and just finished at UGA so a Falcon/Brave/Dawg here.

Yea aragazul, I wasn't on the waitlist. Apparently I had missed my acceptance call a couple of weeks ago and due to some random mistake, the voicemail my counselor left didn't get through. I heard from her again just a few days ago when she told me I got in.

With much deliberation, I have decided to go back to school for another year, retake the MCAT (that was the weakness in my application) and apply again to Canadian schools. It was not an easy decision to make with acceptance to SGU and Ross in hand but I am going for it. So there will be one more seat available to the people in wait list. This year was my first try and I am confident I will get in a Canadian school this time. Good luck to people in the Caribbean!!!

Well, I know it's a tough decision but I'm sure you have your reasons.
Anyways...I got a call today and turns out, I'm in for August 2008. Of course since the class is full, I was offered GSP or waitlist for Grenada...I still have to decide though.

Good for you foxycleop, its much easier to get a high MCAT score in one year than to bring a GPA up from 3.0 to 3.6 (almost impossible). I went through three application cycles and don't regret it a bit.

Anyone here interested in college basketball, specifically ACC basketball? I'm not too interested in watching every Carolina game, but definitely Duke/Carolina. Anyone else planning on it?

Hey congrats!....Did they tell you how many people were ahead of you on the waitlist for Grenada?
