I saw that mesg too from SBUâs thread. Seem strange, since they have released Honors notification on or around March 11th in the last 2 years. Maybe they are releasing them early ?

Has anyone had an interview that had a time slot of 40 minutes but ended up being 20 minutes long?
It depends on the prof really. Many times, they have very specific questions to ask you, and if you were able to respond concisely and they got what they wanted, and they have been told not to have a casual discussion or take questions, they will end early. Not an issue. This happened to my DD. The interviewer told her she gave great answers to his questions and he has no follow up questions and he has been asked not to take questions, so he wished her well. He was pleasant and positive about it so she didnât worry.
How was your interaction? Did you get a sense your responses were adequate?

Congrats!! Same here.
This is my last question - I apologized to the person once (a month ago) because I had to update somethong many times because it wasnt showing up on my end and just apologized again but got no response both times. Does this mean I will get rejected/does this negatively impact me or create bad impressions? I will leave after this
Donât leave. You provide us daily reprieve from the mundane.
And donât worry, they wonât reject you for this reason.

Student to student here, donât be ashamed of asking questions but to be frank no one can really give you the answers you are looking for, and thatâs not cause we donât want to we just canât. Now Iâm not gonna condemn you and no else here has, but the truth of the matter is none of us know or can know the answer to your questions. While I donât condone being a worry wart, cause truly worrying only makes you suffer twice, but if it would help you to relax you can PM me and just vent. Just let out all your worries and stress and I canât promise you Iâll have answers cause I donât but sometimes being able to just spit out all the troubling thoughts bouncing in your head is nice. Try writing out a list of all the things your worried about and then go through and ask yourself, âis this something I can even control?â And if the answer is no then let it go. I know this probably sounds like crap advice and Iâm not answering your question, but itâs just cause I canât, none of us can. I know uncertainty sucks but itâs also what makes life exciting, so all I can say is donât fret cause fretting hasnât helped thus far now has it?

But will they bring up in the discussion that im like over apologetic or something? I genuinely just felt bad for admissioms
I doubt it, besides being apologetic isnât a bad trait, it shows you care about others and are willing to fess up to mistakes. Now I wouldnât send anymore emails, but I doubt it will effect you negatively. And again who really knows, itâs not worth worrying about cause whatâs done is done. Besides if a school rejects you because they think youâre too apologetic you gotta ask yourself if itâs then a community youâd even be happy in.

Yes i definitely wont send any more emails and thats a great point you bring up. Im just worried because she didnt respond and I apologized over the same mistake tiwce and idk if that shows im nervous or what. I just want some honest advice from peopl ehere because they can think more logically and clearly
I emailed my interviewer and he never responded, maybe he just never saw it or maybe he didnât like me. I have no clue but Iâm not gonna worry about it cause itâs out of my hands. Sometimes people donât respond just cause they donât have the time or just donât see the email, I wouldnât take it personally.
Quick question - is it a bad sign if my portal for pitt gap isnât working? Seems like the portal is fine for everyone else. Not sure if I should email them or just leave it alone until decisions come out on Friday. It says my login credentials are invalid so I want to make sure my application wasnât completely discarded because of technological issues.
If itâs been like that for a while maybe just call. They could just be having technical difficulties with you portal and may not even be aware, itâs happened to me before not with Pitt but another.
