Lincoln Memorial DeBusk (LMU-DCOM) Discussion Thread 2015 - 2016

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Got the "at this time, you have not been chosen for an interview" email today.

Is this just a nice way to reject me pre-interview?

Either way, good luck to all who get interviews.

Pre interview hold I'm guessing
 
For those accepted, how long do you have until you must put down a deposit. Also, congrats!

What does that mean? Just curious.

That you are on the line for an interview and they are not saying no, but they are waiting to see what else is out there.

Like when one of your friends asks what you're doing this weekend and you are noncommittal because you're hoping for something better to come along but don't want to shut that door.

I don't know who got an acceptance call around 2, but I was walking by Dr. Weiting as he did it; it was really funny for some reason.

I assuming no call today for a 9/18 interview means either a wait list or rejection?

So we would know the decision about a week after the interview right?
 
Haven't heard back yet, but holding out hope. My interview went well, I thought. The facuty and admissions staff were super friendly. The students didn't seem as stressed out as at other schools I have interviewed at. But most of all, I loved the people of Harrogate. I spent some time driving around, visiting local shops etc. My goodness, people are are so nice down there!

What did you hear him say, exactly?
Maybe he was calling someone from another week.


5 different posters from 9/18 have said they did not receive a call. No posters from 9/18 said they received a call. I will officially relax.

I was just walking by at the end of a mandatory lecture we had. Keep in mind, Dr. Weiting has been escorting our white coat lecture guest, Dr. Gotlin, who is a total bad@$$. Also there is currently a BBQ going on for the students and their visiting families and I just saw him there. You might get a call later tonight or possibly on Monday; don't quote me on it though.

Here's a link to Dr. Gotlin's bio https://www.mountsinai.org/profiles/robert-s-gotlin
Google his name for more info, this guy has done it all.

Yeah if you interviewed on 9/18 just relax. White Coat ceremony is tomorrow so it's unlikely they'll make calls until Monday.

Oh man that was me- apparently it was funny because they did it on speaker phone with my friend and when my friend started talking instead of the dean, I -almost- went off on him for teasing me by calling me from an 865 number. I think my friend knew because he suddenly interrupted me and the dean let me know I was accepted. haha super relieved I didn't cuss talking to my friend.
BTW I think the only reason he called me earlier than everyone else there is because my friend asked if I was accepted (he is a student there). Like mentioned, white coat ceremony is today so he is very busy, so nobody panic!

Withdrawing my II here. I hope it goes to one of you! Good luck with the rest of the application cycle everyone!
 
Accepted by phone !!!
Since i know this series of posts will cause people to be anxious if they haven't received a call/letter yet, let me just tell you: I had so much anxiety. The year is long and when the good news comes you'll wish you weren't so worried. We'll all get there if we want to, it's just a question of when (be it today, this week or next year)!
