That means I'm pretty close to the chopping block... Complete 8/21 and no news yet
Ahhh I'm still in limbo. I wish they would make a decision already.
same, complete sometime early july like 7/14 no news...i guess its a good thing as maybe they are interested in giving interviews just not yet? At least its not a rejection so im not complaining 🙂.
True, true. You need to lend me some of your optimism Elijah.
Interview invite came in around 11:15 this morning -- submitted 8/12, never received a "complete" email, but my LORs were in in early August.
someone had asked about breakfast -- arrival is at 9:30, so I'd doubt it. However, there's a coffee shop in the hospital right next to the Main building lobby, a great cafe/restaurant on the opposite side of the hospital, and a McDonalds in Rosslyn across from the Georgetown Hospital shuttle.

Woke up this few minutes ago, reached for my phone in bed To check emails. First email in inbox was rejection from GU. what a nice way to start the day
They don't serve breakfast. But if you're staying in the Conference Center, they have lots of restaurants and fast food places for breakfast. Or you can just use the vending machines.😀

Whoo invite! Just need them to come back from their abnormally long lunch so I can call and schedule. With any luck, I can get in on the extra day I scheduled while I'm in DC for my George Washington interview... Yay not having to do another flight from California! 
Oh, and I was complete 8/10. And yes, I mentioned cura personalis. 😀

Conference center was so very convenient and close. Also there is a starbucks in the lobby downstairs to get your fix. The interviews were pretty relaxed and conversational, although I was interviewing with the chair on the admission committee who had just ten minute before given us a 1 hour speech..... (made me sweat bullets at first )
Beautiful campus and the curriculum sounded so responsive to the students. Definitely moving up to number one on my OOS schools.

Same here, my friend. Except I checked my email in the middle of my first class. I don't know what we covered after I read it but my notes were certainly lackluster afterwards. 👎
AHH invite!
No complete email, avg stats. I think my essay was around 3000 characters

Yeah, Conference center was great. It's really close to the Med-Dent building, so definitely no stress in the morning. Just so freaking expensive.
The area around the medical campus was definitely impressive. I've never seen so many trees.
I didn't like the fishbowl too much though.
I liked it. We had a cricket that would not shut up. Even during the G'town spiels.
👍
Interviewed yesterday and went really well. It was very relaxed and low stress. Mrs. Sullivan and the interviewer were extremely nice and were not there to "test" you or anything. It's more informative than anything. I am one to usually stress out about things but it seriously wasn't bad at all. Question, anyone know the name of the interview coordinator? Thanks and good luck to all!
Yeah, the Interview Coordinator's super nice. Wonder what his name was, I forget.😳
Same. Damn cricket.

I love the cricket.
lol i had the cricket too.
you'll think its fun if you end up going here. congrats on the interviews guys, let me know if you have any questions about gtown med
how come?
What I thought was pretty funny was when they took us down to the student lounge, and everyone was looking our direction and cracking smiles... that was fun!
Yeah, didn't feel so sharp in my brand new suit then.
Pretty sure his first name is Stephen. Can't recall his last name. Anyway, if you have to email him something (I have to email him a photo), he said to use the address [email protected]. Very nice guy.
Cheers!
👍 On the day of your first interview, I think we were a little preoccupied. Na mean?! 👍
I think I was too scared.

Did Dr. Lauerman talk to you guys during the lunch session? He was great.
Don't remember his name. Was he the anesthesiologist guy?
i just remember he had really intense eyes...like wide open.
So I was complete via email notice 8/26 and my status page also changed to "Application - Complete" soon after that ... today I logged in again to check and suddenly that disappeared and all I have is "Application certified" which shows up after you submit the secondary. Does this mean my application is not complete anymore, or that they are reviewing now and I should expect news soon? Not sure if I should contact the school and ask if my application is really complete or not..
Thanks!
Thanks!
If you're complete, they'll send you an email.
Right, I did get a complete email. So I guess it doesn't matter that my status page did say complete but now doesn't say complete anymore.
Thanks!

Must be rejection Monday... First rejections in a long line of many to come

Must be rejection Monday... First rejections in a long line of many to come
You know looking back, im wondering if i made a mistake applying to schools like this that get 10k+ apps...so far most of my rejections are coming from these schools, while the "harder" schools or schools that recieve less applications (like 6K or less) are giving me interviews...i guess its just too hard to sift through 13k apps in the end. I really wanted to go to gtown badly though 🙁Must be rejection Monday... First rejections in a long line of many to come
rejected as well.
has anyone that completed around 09/08 heard anything from Georgetown other than acknowledgment of materials?
