Where are each of you? I was looking on USPS’s website and if they sent them out Tuesday it should be in my mailbox today

Yeah, I am incredibly anxious, I’m practically stalking my mailbox. I am surprised they haven’t arrived yet but maybe they mailed them out a few days later.

Thank you, please do! Mail already came today but I will definitely let you know if I get it tomorrow. I’m thinking it must have been mailed out after Thanksgiving sometime.

he usual tell me about yourself etc. My one-on-one was also low stress. Other applicants shared that they had to read a couple of scenarios on a piece of paper that included ethical questions, but fortunately, my interviewer only asked me a couple of questions about myself and my file. So be prepared for both I guess. We then observed a pbl session for 30 min and finalized the day with a tour and a presentation. We were done a little before 2 pm. Overall, they were very nice and honest about what to expect. The students were very clear about what they like and don't like, which I appreciated. Personally, I was

sorry to ask again, but what exactly were the rule changes? Like another user mentioned, I'm okay with changes that deter cheating, but is it something that could affect everyone else?

We now have to show our screen to the professor before submitting the exam. Its just a little annoyance but nothing that will affect your grade

I don't have anything to say since I interviewed in November, but if August folks are getting silence then I'm worried about the wait ahead of me lol. Have you contacted admissions at all or just waiting it out?

I did, they said that until the status changes from the “you didn’t pick regular decision blah blah status” I won’t get the decision letter.... last year wasn’t like this

I interviewed mid-October and haven't received an admissions decision yet, though my status on the portal states a decision has been made.

Congratulations!!! That gives me hope that mine will come soon. Mail already came today and it wasn’t there but hopefully tomorrow. If you don’t mind me asking, roughly how far are you from the school?

I live in Miami so about 4 hours away!
 
I’m still waiting for my portal to change... it still says the “as you didn’t opt for early decision you will be notified after nov 15”
 
My portal still says "Your file is in under review by the Admissions Committee post interview. You will be notified by mail of the decision by the Admissions Committee." interviewed November
 
Is it common for people receive an interview invite to both LECOM-Erie and LECOM-Bradenton?

Anyone here that interviewed in December? Did they mention anything about the decision timeline?
 
Does LECOM actually reject anyone post-interview or just put those they don't want on the alternative list?
 
Has anyone else from November interviews heard back yet?
 
Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone who had their interview here could share their experience and give me some tips. I have my interview here soon. Thanks!

It’s a group interview followed by a very very short one on one. Group interview consists of ethical questions that the group collaboratively discusses. I’d just say, don’t be a gunner, but have some good contributions.

Do lots of research on their PBL curriculum. Most of the interview will be focused on teaching you more about it and seeing how well you fit within that learning style

Group interview is kind of laid back and supposed to test how you discuss / contribute / dissent in a group setting. One-on-one was disappointing to me: a very brief interaction with 1 faculty triggered by 3 cards that you have in front of you and that you have to flip and respond to. One of the questions was a research scenario that I did not expect to get at LECOM. I did not feel comfortable at all with that dynamic. I interviewed back in August and am still waiting for a letter....

Has anyone from November 15th or later interviews gotten a portal change or letter?
