No, but I did get this little essay below my correspondance area twice.
NOTE: Your most recent correspondence should be available here by the time you recieve an email notification that your status has changed.

It scared me as I thought it was a rejection.
Anyone else get this?

Yeah that went up during iApply maintenance today.
Has anyone else out there been invited by both programs and is having the same trouble? I am quite sick at the moment and don't have a voice, I would really like to avoid calling an admissions office if possible, at least until I'm healthy, haha.

Under University Program Correspondence, it says this:

Please include in your message where you are, as we think this problem may have to do with different time zones.
What does this mean? I haven't gotten any emails lately about a status change, although my status did recently change to complete on the status page.

AH! I got the e-mail that my "status has changed" just now, and I have nothing either.
No one has been rejected yet, right? It's most likely an interview? How long does it take the message to show up? I'm compulsively refreshing my iApply. I'm going to be so bummed if it's the first SDN rejection 🙁

give it 2-3 hours. RELAX!!! it's most likely an interview, but don't get your hopes up just yet. don't log on compulsively! go do something for a couple hours then come back!
eep. Thanks, Berk... I owe you one reality check. Let me know when you need to cash it in 😀 . Gonna go read a couple long biochem chapters and return...
Haha I just went through the same thing yesterday...
😴
I got the same email! I hope we both get interviews ^_^
but just to let you know.. some people have been rejected according to the rejection thread =/

bummer. probably what I'm in for then. Sorry to hear it 🙁 I suppose I'll wait for the update to get to my time zone. What time is it where you are?

Scratch that! Interview 🙂 Scheduled it for 10/14 which is my fall break so I don't have to miss any school.
Congrats!! i got one too!! ^_^ i don't know when to schedule it though.. the earliest one is 10/7 but thats my birthday .....-_-
Go for it, and try to work in the fact that it's your birthday, the unspoken implication being that an acceptance would be a great present
I have that message too. I'm not going to worry about it until after this weekend.
EDIT: I actually think it's more of a generic message that should have been written "your most recent correspondence should be available here if you receive an email notification..."

Hi all,
Considering applying to Case because I heard they view teaching experience very favorably (was a high school teacher for one year after undergrad then quit and decided I wanted to go back to school).
However, I'm not sure if my numbers are "up to par" (please see my MDApps for specific stats) and tried researching their matriculating class stats on their site but couldn't find anything.
I'm wondering if it's too late to apply after seeing all the interview invites on this site, and also the secondary essays will take me a while to write so if it's just going to be a waste of my time and money I'm wondering if this school is even worth applying to for me?
Thanks in advance for any advice/comments/suggestions!
*edit* If they pre-screen, even better. Also, if anyone knows whether they use VirtualEvals/Interfolio or if LOR's need to be snail-mailed. Thanks!

You may want to call them. Mine were marked as received within 3-4 business days of Interfolio sending them.
i had the same problem. i called them and apparently mine got lost somewhere b/w them receiving it and actually downloading it to add to my file. but problem was solved within minutes of calling 🙂
No. The admissions offices are essentially independent. You can apply to one program, the other, or both, whatever you want to do. CCLCM won't blackball you from the UP just because you didn't apply to this program too.

I just got the "your status has been updated" email, and there's no change!
Got that too.. I found out the "your interview is confirmed" link had some new information, including student hosts and contact for students to ask questions, etc.
i already got an email for that 2-3 days ago. This one is after the interview invite and the new info link. weird...
I did too.. But for me, the info that was under the new info link had actually changed.
hmm maybe it did, and i didn't notice!
I sent mine in August 21 through Interfolio and they still have not been marked received (or auto). So I'm guessing they're just backed up in the office because of too many applications?
I'm thinking the same thing. If I don't get a reply to my email by Wednesday or so, I'll give the office a call and see what's going on.
call them.. same thing happened to me. I called them and it turns out mine had just been sitting there for a while! If I hadn't called, it would have sucked!
Anyone else complete for a long time.. but not hear anything? I was complete around the 20th of August. People have been getting invites the day after >.>
Case is friggen fast. I went from complete to interview in like, three business days.
Yeah...it was like 5 days for me. Crazy fast!
Oh, when are you interviewing? I just scheduled for 11/3.
I haven't scheduled yet 😳 Probably 10/28
I can't afford to miss any more Tuesdays/Thursdays than absolutely necessary. Tweety, interview on 11/3 with me!
The third is a monday? Haha that would be great!!! Let me see how much the ticket costs for both trips (sorry raryn, money comes first 😛 )

Sounds awesome. Any advice on where to stay, transportation, good places to eat?
Anyone apply to Case AND CCLCM
I hear that they may delay interview decisions if you apply to both schools
:crosses fingers: I was complete on the 20th-ish of August btw
I'm really surprised by how people are getting invites within 2-3 days after being complete. I'm "hoping" this is the reason, especially after seeing a guy get invites from CCLCM and Case today despite being complete on Aug. 1st.
Then again, some people applying to both have received a Case interview. Aah.. who knows.

Well you can add three ppl to that batch of anectdotal cases. I was complete in Mid-late August (both schools) and have not heard a peep.
