Hi everyone! I have been looking for something like this to make me feel not-so-alone on this difficult journey, and I am hoping I can help others on theirs. I am about to be 28 years old in the beginning of March and this is my 4th application cycle. In all of my cycles, I have not once...

Hello! I consider this a companion piece to the thread discussing post-II Rs. To preface, I was fortunate enough to get an II, despite my very choppy record (@Goro knows a lot about it). With that said though, I would like to avoid a fate that happened to me in a previous cycle – the dreaded...

My cycle did not go very well. I had my last (2nd) interview in early March and I'm waiting to hear back in the next week or so. Additionally, I was accepted to a PhD program (mind you, with a tuition waiver and stipend) and wonder if a 3rd application cycle even makes sense at this point. I'm...

It's that time, folks..! Applications are officially out! Best of luck to y'all :giggle: Interview Offers - Program Name (date offer was received) Rejections - Program Name (date rejection was received) Just copy/paste the list each time you add a new program. Thanks!

Hello Everyone, I've been rejected from the 4 year university I applied to transfer to from my community college. I'm unsure how I would not be in the top pool of applicants unless they are holding my medical withdrawals against me from years ago. I have a 3.2~ over the years, I'm currently...

I tried to find a thread similar to this, but I couldn't, so I will ask here: So, most post-bac programs I have applied to (total: 6) wont sent out interview invites until next year. However, I just completed an interview (let's call it school A) and will hear back in the next few weeks and...

Hey people, Do most dental programs formally reject people they aren't interested in? Or do the vast majority just leave you 'under review' until the cycle is over? Thanks

Hello SDN! If anyone out there is like me, you are having another sleepless night due to thinking about how you aren't accepted to any dental schools and the lovely anxiety paired with it! Has anyone else NOT heard from any schools? I have applied to 13 and been rejected from 2 (Temple [dec...

This could be inappropriate/futile, but I've heard stories of people appealing rejections and wanted to hear some thoughts. I was recently rejected (pre-interview) from my dream school, which does not come as a surprise since the school is very competitive. I live very close to their campus, and...

Hi everyone! So with the 2019 application cycle behind us... Those of us with iffy stats probably are formulating a "plan b" if we get that rejection letter in February. What is everyone's plan if they don't get in this cycle? This was my first time applying and I am preparing myself (I know...

My application has been under review since early to mid-July. Now, I know I'm not the most competitive applicant this cycle, but is there really a chance I won't hear back from some programs until possibly March?

Hi, I am a US MD graduate but was placed on probation and "did not full my probation requirements" and was recommended for dismissal because they felt i could not supervise an intern. My question is which states or US Territory would be my best chances of getting my medical licensure? Also my...

Starting a bit early, but since UTDell starts offering secondaries in June, I figured why not. School: Secondary/Interview/Accep/Rejec: Notification date: Method of notification: Residency: TMDSAS/AMCAS mail-out date: Application complete date: GPA (science, overall) MCAT (Bio/Phys/CARS/Psysoc):

So I am still on the wait list for UF, but I like to know and hash out all possibilities. For people who have been though this before and didn't get in their first time, what did you do during the year off? I was thinking about working as a Vet Tech, but I don't know if I can because I didn't...

You worked your tail off as an undergrad to have an amazing GPA, took MCAT review courses to get a high score, participated in hours of clinical experience, and still were rejected from medical school! Where did you go wrong? How can you get it right the next time? Here’s some advice for you...

Greetings, So I recently found out I was accepted into an MHA program. In the acceptance letter they stated that once I officially accepted I would have to send my official transcripts and wait to be accepted into the university...Is it possible for me to be accepted into the program but then...

They say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting different results. If you were rejected from med school this year and are planning to reapply, you can’t realistically expect a good result if you simply do the same thing over again. Instead, you need to...

“Dear Incredibly Hard Working Premed and Hopeful Doctor, Our admissions committee has met, and we regret to inform you that you were not selected as a student for our entering class. There were many qualified blah blah blah…” Ouch. I worked hard. I shadowed. I volunteered. My GPA was great...

Here’s my 2-minute answer to the question I hear every application season: “I was rejected by every single medical school I applied to. What can I change?” There’s a simple 2-step process that rejected med school applicants need to follow: 1. Assess what went wrong, 2. Fix it! What exactly...

It is devastating to receive a rejection. We actually experience physical pain; the same parts of the brain that are activated when we are kicked or punched, light up when we experience rejection. Given the very real physical and emotional pain of rejection, as anyone who has been through it...

Hey all. I'm a nontraditional applying this cycle via TMDSAS (Texas application service) to only Texas schools as a Texas resident. My TMDSAS GPA cumulative is 3.87, and science is 3.77. My real GPA (AMCAS) is ~ 3.80. My MCAT is a 520 which makes my LizzyM ~ 75.7. I have research experience...

Hello everyone, So I am very conflicted in the application process right now. I went through two rejections already (one school does not accept classes passed graduation, so my undergraduate GPA is low, and another school rejected me after an interview), and I feel a bit overwhelmed with the...

Title explains it. I'll start: Wayne State I also believe UCLA does pre-interview holds on the portal without emailing you, but I only know this from someone else's application from 2 cycles ago.

I was looking in the online system and it looks like I was rejected outright for the LMFT Master's program at TWU. I'm rather baffled as my stats were, I thought, good enough to place me high up on the acceptance list. I'm trying to sort out what happened so I can shore up application...

I just submitted my ERAS and finally became a member of SDN (after lurking for many years). I found a thread from previous years that was really beneficial for radiology applicants (2016-2017 Interview Thread). I think an interview date thread would be useful for all applicants this year too...

Hiya guys: The title says most of it: which TMDSAS schools are known to send post-interview rejections prior to November 15 or February 1st? I'm just curious.

Hey, I am an incoming P1 at a top10 pharmacy school. There are tons of hospitals in the area and I've applied to many intern positions, interviewed for 2, and I've been rejected for all of them. I was even rejected for a position where the recruiter contacted my school to specifically recruit...

Greetings and Salutations all! The new application cycle has started, so I have started this thread for those who will be applying to VCU. I applied last year, so if you are new to the whole application process and have any questions, feel free to ask. Best of luck, everyone!

Since the new application cycle has opened, I wanted to go ahead and start this thread for those applying to be a part of the class of 2022 at Marquette University's dental school. I applied last year, so if you have any questions about interview preparation or how Marquette goes about interview...

Every year, top medical schools get more than enough top applicants to fill their classes with students with outstanding test scores and grades. And yet many of these applicants are rejected. Medical school rejection happens to even the best students applying. The largest take away from this...

Hey everyone! As disappointing/embarrassing as it is to say, it's looking like I may be a gap year re-applicant. (rejected to UIC, St. Scholastica, Puget Sound, Wisconsin Madison; waitlisted at Rush; waiting to hear from Wisconsin Milwaukee, Davenport, Eastern Washington University (had an...

Can we just take a moment to engage in some group therapy over the absolute mindf$%# that is the weeks/months long period between interviewing for a medical school spot and getting an actual answer. Maybe take some donations to set up a hotline, get it included in the next copy of the DSM. I'm...

For some, the new year is a time for hearing good admissions news; but for others, 2017 may be off to a grim start. If you’ve received a rejection letter from your target school (or – sigh – from all your target schools), then you may be feeling more doom and less hopeful for the coming year...

hi im a premed. so heres the thing, everyone since the beginning of my life hates me and i was always bullied. I have a terrible relationship with my parents. my dad doesnt like me and my mom annoyed the crap out of me during my entire childhood. every interview (med school or job) has resulted...

I received my second rejection today via email from UVM post baccalaureate program. My first was from USC, earlier this fall. The mail stated the same reason as the USC one did, low science gpa. I only took a few science classes and that was over 10 years ago. I'm apprehensive to apply anywhere...

Let's do this haha! Got my first rejection, so I'm qualified to start this haha! Include your username, mode of rejection (e.g. email, snail mail, portal), and the date you received your rejection! UNITED STATES: Auburn University: University of California: Colorado State University...

I have finished my secondary applications to about 10 medical schools during the summer. I got one rejection and one interview. I went to the interview and got rejected. It is December. When will I hear back from the other schools?

For those in a similar situation, or reapplicants who have experienced this before, what does it mean to not hear back from schools today? In cases like mine where GPA isn't all that impressive, is "no news good news?" Or is it essentially a rejection? I woke up at 6:30am like most of you...
