I had the phone interview on 1/19 - haven't heard anything yet - is it okay to call the admissions office asking for an update ?

I wouldn’t… it better to be patient because that might diminish your chance of getting an interview. I had my phone interview in August and haven’t heard at all, but I’ve just been sending updates in the portal.

 

[shom86]

WL folks who got an A, did you send a LOI or updates letter?

 

[TheMagicDude]

WL folks who got an A, did you send a LOI or updates letter?

I did not. But you should lol.

 

[shom86]

I did not. But you should lol.

Is getting off the WL still a call? Or do they email?

 

[TheMagicDude]

Is getting off the WL still a call? Or do they email?

They called me but I wasn’t able to answer and got the email instead.

 

[futuredochow]

Will admissions make decisions next week?

 

[bluebook1]

OOS II just now! Phone interview 09/29. It’s super late in the cycle, anyone know if this might just be for the waitlist position?

 

[popegreemIII]

Any january phone interview updates? They were supposed to update us in February

Interviewed today, they said they do not have people interview for WL positions, there are still spots available.

 

[shom86]

What do y’all know about WL movement at Western Michigan? I was WL on 2/21 and it seems like there’s been movement, anyone have statistics on that/heard from their committee about it?

 

[HollowJ@1]

Did anyone else get the estimated financial aid offer and was shocked by no aid lol?

 

[hopefulphysiciansoon]

how were peoples interview experiences at wmed? its two, 1hr interviews?

 

[hotsauce4]

how were peoples interview experiences at wmed? its two, 1hr interviews?

It was great! the best interview experience I had so far this cycle in terms of it actually being low-stress, friendly students and faculty, and well-organized. It's a 30-minute interview with a faculty, a student panel for 30 minutes, and a group interview for 30 minutes.

 

[ivyyuh]

What day do decisions typically come out on?

 

[cribbage15]

[bluebook1]

Does anyone know how many people get off the WL?

 

[shom86]

Can WL folks expect to hear anything today?

 

[JustPleaseAcceptMe]

I’m 3/7 and haven’t heard anything. For us no news is good news I guess!

 

[MusicNerd]

how were peoples interview experiences at wmed? its two, 1hr interviews?

I had an excellent experience. It was the only one I had that was legitimately low stress. Everyone was nice and seemed genuinely happy to be there, both at WMed in general and at the interview day.

Does anyone know what waitlist movement is typically like?

 

[MusicNerd]

Does anyone know what waitlist movement is typically like?

My understanding is there's usually a fair bit, and it starts pretty early. There have been people on this thread talking about getting accepted off the waitlist for a couple months now.

 

[flexion&extension]

Super late to this thread and new to sdn in general, but secondary submitted 7/21, online assessment completed 7/22, phone interview 8/15, II received 9/6, interviewed 9/29, A 10/19.

 

[shom86]

Hope some WL people can hear back today…WL on 2/21 so the one-month anniversary is about here

 

[shak07]

does anyone know how many people are in the accepted FB group? or what the anticipated WL movement will be like in the next couple of months?

 

[hopefulphysiciansoon]

did everyone who interviewed get a handwritten thank you note mailed to them?

 

[BlueDove]

did everyone who interviewed get a handwritten thank you note mailed to them?

Yes…after interview and ten days after being waitlisted 😞 But very nice/personal touch!
