I submitted 7/6 and mine still aren't processed either. I'm sure they are crazy busy. I'm not going to call until at least Monday to give them some time.
for those of you who have one of the two messages that likely lead to interviews, did you ever have a status saying "Your M.D. file is now complete. The Admissions Committee will now do a comprehensive review of your application. Once the review is complete, your file will be prioritized, and interviews will be granted based on your priority score and the date your file was completed. Please do not call the Admissions Office requesting special dates."
Last year there were a couple people who went directly from this to an interview invite, so I'm just wondering if everyone gets the complete status or not.
This may seem like a dumb question but are we supposed to follow the 8000 character limit or the 500-600 word limit? It says to limit the supplemental essay to 8000 characters for the prompt listed under the "general information" section but when you verify your application in the end, it reminds you that "the essay has a limited length, so be certain that you know your material will fit in the allotted space (approximately 500-600 words)."
Interesting. Is your last name in the latter third of the alphabet?
I got the "may" status last year and I unfortunately did not get an interview. I feel that the only reason I didn't get an interview was that I submitted my secondary extremely late (late October). You're in a very good position if you get the "may" or "further" status this early on. This is what they wrote to me in last year's rejection letter:
"The review of your file indicates that you have some fine qualities. While we are unable to interview you this year, we would suggest you consider reapplication if you are not accepted to another medical school. Reapplication should occur only after consideration and consultation of how to strengthen your profile."
Just submitted. After researching the school some for my secondary, I was impressed. Good luck to everyone waiting for interview invites!
Same here! It started off as a regional thing, but the more I looked into it, the more I wanted to go there.
VCU is amazing! 78% of the people that graduate from there end up getting into on their top three residency choices. That's very good compared to schools of the same "caliber"....I just want an interview. VCU SHOW ME SOME LOVE!
i wonder how long it will take for my application is complete status to change to the may status...stevejmarist when did your status say that ur letter of recs were complete as well as ur secondary?
I'd go with the one on the supplementary application, listed just above the essay prompt (8000 characters). They might have updated this recently, neglecting to change the description on the 'general info' page.
BTW, for whoever cares, I submitted my secondary and payment 7/6 and was only complete this evening (7/12) with 5 LORs. I have yet to be assigned a priority score.
Who all submitted a picture?
Edit: Didn't want to wait to take a more "formal" picture so just submitted a random one that was on my computer - hope that will be OK

Anyone else not complete? I submitted July 6 (albeit, late in the evening) . . . I know it's been but a week, but just wanted to if anyone else was in a similar situation . . .

"Your file is complete, and has been forwarded to the Admissions Committee for further decision."
I never thought I'd get a second "complete" status lol?
Just got the "further" status as well. Hopefully this is good news!

Congrats! Hopefully I can look forward to this too. Just got the "special dates" status today.just got the VERY INTERESTED status

Hey everyone, I'm a little bit confused. Once your file is complete, does everyone get this message before changing to "interested", "may", "further", or "rejected" status?
Looks like I'm done from here....
I was complete much before you guys and my app is still just at the complete phase. Peace out and best of luck to all
