I'm thinking beginning of MayI've haven't received an award letter (accepted a long time ago). Wonder when they'll come out.

Oh, SDN.You guys are complaining about your reward letters. I haven't even heard my post interview decision.
Final decision status last Monday...live within 20 minutes of campus and still no letter
Yes, that's right. Sorry to hear that! Good luck to you.Soooo..... "A decision has been reached and a letter will be mailed to a preferred address. " means waitlisted right? :\
Congratulations! May I ask when you interviewed?Complained too soon...Accepted! Haha
Mid JanuaryCongratulations! May I ask when you interviewed?
Oh ok I interviewed in the beginning of February so hopefully I'm next!Mid January
Need some advice about sending an update post-interview. So since the submission of my primary application to the AMCAs I have been working full time as a scientist for a genetic research company, and also been volunteering at a hospital of upwards of 15 hours a week. While this is not formally in my primary application, I did touch on it in the secondary application in the question asking what you will be doing in the gap year, and I talked about it during my interview. Would it be beneficial for me to send a formal update including all the pertaining information so it is in my file or would it just be unnecessary at this point?
It cannot hurt to send an update letter to let them know the details, since 15 volunteer hours per week is a substantial commitment and is more than the committee would assume you are doing if there are only nonspecific references to volunteering via your secondary and your interview.
Thanks for the quick response!! one last question--in the update should I list references and their contact information similar to how work/activities are posted in the AMCA primary applications or do I just send the ADCOM an explanation of the important updates.
I'm sure they have a lot of movement after May 15th. Don't be disappointed!!waitlisted
I'm sure e-mail would be fine; just make sure they respond notifying you that they got your message. I'm planning to call to withdraw.I am sorry if this question has been asked before. How you do your guys withdraw your deposit? Is email sufficient? thankss
So I got waitlisted. Has anyone else sent a written response to accept the waitlist status? If so, how does it work. Is it like a letter of intent you send to the school? Thanks!
I interviewed mid-march and just recently my status changed to being reviewed by a member of the committee. We will probably hear mid to end of May, I imagine.Has anyone who interviewed in late March heard from the school yet about a decision?
I interviewed the very last day on April 3rd and have been at committee for around 3 weeks now so I'm guessing it really all depends how quickly your interviewer submits their review
Wow that was fast! I hope it's great news!In case anyone is still waiting post-interview, I interviewed 3/27 and my status recently changed to: Final decision has been reached, letter will be mailed.
Wow that was fast! I hope it's great news!
You're very welcome! Hopefully the letter comes within a week or so.Thank you I thought my interviews went well but my interviewer did ask about my other acceptances since my interview was so late.. Hope that didn't affect anything. Now time to wait for that snail mail.. Haha
Is something wrong that I have not heard a decision yet? I interviewed the beginning of March and still nothing. Wondering if I should call.
It's not the end! Is this your top choice?Finally changed to "a decision has been reached" so I guess I got waitlisted
they send letters to both. a decision is usually a waitlistInterviewed the end of March and my status just changed to "A decision has been reached and a letter will be mailed to a preferred address."! Does anyone know whether they send letters via snail-mail to notify applicants that they are being placed on the waitlist, or do they only send letters for acceptance/rejections?
Congrats! What were your stats, if you don't mind me asking?Accepted! Snail mail came in today, status changed last Friday I think (that's when I noticed it haha)
