    Yea the wait is horrible but everyone is going through it. I really hope we hear this week, but my counselor did say there were 210 applicants interviewed so it might take longer compared to last year was only 168 people interviewed.
    Whoa, I had no idea so many were interviewed!

    I hope by this week we will know if we got in or not. The wait is killing me.lol. Thats a lot of applicants Has anyone received a letter from Western at all? Or is it mainly by email if you got accepted? Goodluck everyone!!!! One question for anyone: Does anyone know how greatly they weigh your acceptance by the interview or do they base it off mainly gpa, major, experience, etc.
    I got my acceptance by email, then a formal letter by mail a few days later.

    I know they look at the applicant as a whole picture, interview, personal statement last 60 GPA, etc. are all considered. they have a whole committee and a process they go through to pick the accepted applicants.

    Hey Meseca:
    Yea when i talked to my counselor she said that 210 this year give or take a few so that is a LARGE number of applicants. I know they take a holistic approach when looking at applicants but I would love to know how it is actually weighed because I heard there was a point system involved. I am unsure of the exact details but that is what my counselor told me last week.

    Hey Butters,

    I cannot remember if I recognize that outfit, I was so nervous that day that I can barely remember anything: even what I said in my interview lol. But I was literally the 2nd to last person to have my interview for the day. I believe I was done at 4:45pm that day.

    I guess this is the week we will all find out. Ahhh, I am so nervous but excited. Just remember that whatever happens is usually for the best and many schools have application dates throughout the yr so we can always apply again to other schools.
    Hi!

    I was also super nervous that day. I was shaking a lot during my interview. I think I was done around the same time.

    I hope we find out from Western this week! It scares me that 210 ppl applied! If only Western can accept 90 people (like UCLA), instead of 50.

    Hi Kat248,

    According to most applicants last year, most people found out through email. So I am hoping the same for us.
