looks like this school sending out decision today .. just curious, who ever got decision, when they had actual an interview?

will attending the recruitment day be significantly positive? or negative if i cannot go? would appreciate any insight, thank you!

anyone else get a deferred status email?

When I went, they literally deferred some people while they were there, so I'd say probably doesn't make a big difference... but who knows

That’s so messed up omfg. Imagine traveling across the country just to get deferred during the recruitment event

My opinion of them dropped so much after that lol

lmfao this happened to me and i literally left as soon as i had the opportunity to sneak out during lunch because I was so irritated. I didn't have to travel super far, so I'm sure it was much more frustrating for people who travelled from around the country, but it HUGELY turned me off from Geisinger--seems like horrible etiquette

Yeah awful etiquette fs. Students were all super nice, but that move was a huge turnoff. Gratz on Temple btw!!

any advice for interview?

Temples a far better school anyway and this is coming from someone with a geisinger A

Have my interview coming up, it's my first mmi so super nervous. Does anyone have any advice for the interview (ik you can't share any specifics) just looking for any general advice that can help with preparation?

Yo Geisinger can you make a decision already and stop edging me lmao

is this school an open or closed mmi? cant find anything online lol if anyone can answer i luv you

Closed

anyone get off the pre-II deferral yet?

Anyone still get an acceptance even after feeling like their mmi’s didnt go that great 🫩

i did. I definitely bombed one of the questions like bad. got accepted tho, but i am high stat and in state.

Anyone else RSVP'ed for Accepted Students Day? Since we can't bring guests I'd like you at least know OF some people I'll see! Let's be pals! 😁

Any late November interviewees hear back yet?

Interviewed 11/24 and haven’t heard anything.

Only if you say you're going and then don't show up without notice

Not too important. You ain't missing much. Was cool to see the classrooms and chat with other applicants/professors but that's about it. They didn't show off too much of the campus

Week 13 after my interview. Hoping decisions come out this week or next... Tired of waiting

Are they finished sending interviews?

I hope not, it looks like they sent a tiny amount last year in the Feb. Unless people stopped reporting it, it looks like Geisinger hasn't sent out any more since Jan!

dayum congrats to the A's... Looks like I'll be waiting another month for a decision :(

For those who heard back, may I ask when everyone interviewed?

10/27 then waitlist 1/13. Accepted today

9/22, deferred on 11/10, accepted on 1/13

Looking at Cycle Results, seems like everyone who heard back so far received their interview invite in august/september only (not necessarily interview date, but we can probably assume they interviewed somewhat soon after the invite). So is it safe to say people who interviewed in november/december won't be hearing back today

Interview 10/27, WL in 12/15, still in WL

interview invite received on 8/25, interview 10/27, and still deferred :(

Little confused why I got pre-II deferred today. If they’re only going to release a few more interviews, why not just reject me now? They won’t have time to come back to me. “Soft-R” doesn’t make sense. There’s no point in it.

yeah that's weird, I don't understand why any schools do pre-II holds

For the low-yield schools with a million applicants, I kinda get it since they want to give every application a fair shot before immediately offering all their interviews. I just don’t think it works in practice. No time to really go back. Most people are good applicants so they’ll find people they like.

Any idea when next round of decisions is for jan interviews?

Not sure but I interviewed in November and still haven't heard back, so I assume yours would be later rather than sooner

Oh wow almost 4 months now thats insane, good luck to u my friend!! Hoping for A for us both

Yeah I interviewed yesterday and I feel like I’m gonna hear back in like May LOL

interviewed 1/19/26 and they said 6-10 weeks for us

do they give merit scholarship outside of abigail scholars

+1 IS Acceptance (interviewed in October)

Congrats!! Has anyone who interviewed in january heard back this round?

Congratulations! Was it a direct acceptance or were you deferred first?

Interviewed 10/1, deferred 11/10, sent update letter 1/12, went to in-person thing late Jan

Thank you for the info. It’s crazy how long these decisions can stretch. I went to in-person event 11/08, interviewed 11/24, and received the deferral today. I am planning sending an update letter soon. I was going to prior to the decision, but decided to wait just in case of deferral. Thanks and congrats again!

So does everyone get deferred first, seems like the trend
