Summary of Application Experience
I also applied to Sackler. I really did not expect to receive anything. I am quite happy but as of now (2/9/07) I haven't heard back from 14 schools. I have interviewed at Penn State, GW, Temple and will interview at SUNY Upstate in March. Withdrew Buffalo. Hoping on NYC schools. Does anyone know if the SUNY's usually use the same criteria to sift through the applicants? Thanks. This is actually a fun process.
7/3/07: As the full year of applying closes. I chose George Washington over Penn State. It was a tough decision but I believe it was a suitable one.
