Thank you!

Nope, I only had one interview.

I'm not sure what multiple interviews means. I know one person who had a follow up interview this year and she said they just asked her for more clarification on various topics. I think offers go out to people who had any number of interviews, though. Just take it as an opportunity to sell yourself even more!

I didn't get any of the 3 cities I preferred, but I think it's because I'm going to law school in NYC.

Were we supposed to fill out the SEO-U information on the online portal? For some reason, I thought that was only for the other internship programs.

When we deposit, do we just change our choice to "enrolled?"

You also have to upload your proof of enrollment/deposit.

Thanks, y'all!

I don't think I changed my choice to enrolled. I just uploaded my enrollment confirmation and then I also emailed the general email address letting them know that I uploaded it. I hope more news hits this thread soon!

Congrats on the acceptance! NYC sounds great. When did you submit your application? Trying to figure out if the calls go out in order submitted or with any discernible pattern.

Last cycle offers seemed to go out by city w/New York being first. Seems to be true this year as well from the limited information we have.

Heart skipped a beat when I saw new SEO email in my inbox. However, it was merely a reminder to keep them updated.

I was also recently accepted into SEO - NY. In case it helps, I did have a follow up interview a few weeks back. I plan to post in the results thread with my info soon as well. Good luck to everyone!
