Rush GEM Spring 2013

Published

Hello all,

Just thought I'd start a thread for anyone who has applied for the January 2013 cohort of the GEM program. I recently completed my supplemental application and I'm waiting to hear about an interview. In the meantime, I'm trying to find out as much as possible about the program, and Rush in general. I'm planning to attend the July 2nd information session.

Please chime in if you're in the same boat!

@lholladay, @anitadoula when did you guys interview? my interview was last week & I have heard NOTHING from Rush. I am checking my email every 5 minutes but no love it seems. Does anyone remember if they said anything about multiple rounds of acceptances? I don't want to jinx myself but has anyone out there gotten a rejection letter yet?

Congratulations to all! I too have been accepted for the January 2013 cohort and couldn't be happier or more excited! :D And for everyone on the waitlist, I bet you will get in! Don't give up.

As for not hearing anything yesterday, do you have a Gmail account? It seems that the mail from Rush gets automatically filed as Spam. If you have Gmail, I'd double check your Spam folder because it's most likely there :) Good luck to everyone waiting and congratulations again to everyone accepted! We did it!

Hi Everyone!!

I found out that I was accepted for the January 2013 start date as well! I was on the waitlist for fall and Molly just contacted me and said I would not be starting in fall but in January instead. I am very excited as this was my top choice...so it is worth the wait.

Congrats to all that were accepted! Excited to be classmates with you! Yes someone should take charge and make a facebook group and then send the hyperlink in here...lholladay would you like to?

Bah! I got wait listed as well, I'm number 4 on the list. I really hope that I get in for January, because waiting for May would be a bummer! I'll keep checking if you guys make a FB page, hopefully I will see you guys in January!

It looks like to start a FB group, you have to add at least one friend to it. Bre, I sent you a friend request so that I can add you. Then I'll post the link here.

Ahhh I had put up to receive emails when someone replied to this thread but I must have messed something up because I didn't see all these! I just joined the group and hoping I get accepted to the January cohort still! Thanks Luke for putting the group together. Thanks for the support everyone and I hope I hear something soon!
