Have you heard back from them yet? I am waitlisted for interview. Not surprised by now  

This sucks! Very strange to me that they have basically filled up completely before the second deadline. What is the point of two deadlines if you'll be full before one even passes. Also, does it say anywhere on their website that they do rolling admissions? I didn't see that and would have applied sooner had I known.

Has anyone heard anything about whether or not the Einstein school that Jefferson acquired got accredited

I agree! On the website it says applications are reviewed as completed. I feel like they should have let people know that they are interviewing for a waitlist spot cause I bet many people don't want to do that.

At the open house they mentioned they begin reviewing immediately following the August application opening and offer seats. So that's rolling admissions. And that they fill up quickly so applying priority is best.
