Question, I am complete at most of my schools now, do they actually tell you that you're on hold, or when your application hasn't been acted on for several weeks, that's called "a hold?"

Also, can people please put how they learned of the hold, like they did in last year's thread? Thanks!

Would it also be possible to add the color coding, if and when the time comes? That thread from last year was awesome, and gave some hope to people on holds at some of the schools!

pluripotent-
If you dont mind me asking, when were you complete at Tufts, and when were you put on hold?? I didnt realize that they gave out holds- I thought they were a school where you just never heard anything until an invite or a rejection!

of the schools listed in this thread i have some interviews, a rejection, an acceptance and one "hold" (GW).

But for several I have SILENCE. Which is better, a hold or silence????

Silence is golden. A pre-interview hold is crappy.

thanks. that makes sense because silence has turned into interviews for me, but "hold" has not. but we'll see. i am sure many of my "silent" schools will reject me!!

I know for some schools, like Drexel, the pre-interview hold is basically a rejection because they won't look at you again until May. With Loyola, the pre-interview hold puts you off until the new year, while silence means that they have "flagged you for review" which might turn into an interview.

Did you guys solicit status from GW over e-mail? Or did they send you a pre-interview hold status on their own? How long did it take after you were complete to get that status?

I did not email them. I received an email from them about 8 weeks after i was complete saying i was on "hold." that was mid-Sept. silence since then and probably forever.

Does anybody know if it's considered a hold when your UVermont status says you've been reviewed and put in a a group of possible interview applicants or whatever? Or is that something else? Thanks!

I don't know if I would really consider that a pre-interview hold yet. If you have been in that pile for a while, than maybe. It seems that almost everyone who gets an interview spends at least a couple days with that designation.

I dunno I've been in the UVermont hold for at least 3 weeks or so with that message..I would consider it a pre-interview hold but I guess it's subjective..let's hope the interview invite comes!

So it looks like no one (N=2, btw) got off the pre-interview hold at Michigan from last year's list.

Well, ****.

Question, I am complete at most of my schools now, do they actually tell you that you're on hold, or when your application hasn't been acted on for several weeks, that's called "a hold?"

I don't know if someone already answered your question or not, but you actually do receive a letter or email telling you that your application has been reviewed and has been put "on hold" by the ad com.

Silence is so much better than an "on hold" status update (my opinion anyways).
