Hi, I'm new - Does anyone know if they screen? I've made it past a few low-standard screeners like Loyola, but I was verified in June and have yet to receive the secondary. Should I call, or assume I was screened out?
 
Nope, i am pretty sure they have no screening process for secondaries. If its been a while since AMCAS was verified, you should call them up and ask.

Hey all,

When were you all complete? According to my records, I was complete sometime the first week in July after submitting the secondary. I'm from Philly and I REALLY would love to go here.

Jefferson still hasn't uploaded my letters. Do you think I should call?

My status page had my LOR's unchecked for a few weeks and finally called in today. The lady said their site sometimes has a glitch so takes a while to register all the necessary documents. Call just in case. They'll ask for your full name and AMCAS ID and will update your status for you. 🙂 It took no more than an hour for my page to finally have "yes" in all the required fields.
 
if all the fields have yes, does that mean youre complete? or do they send you an email confirming??

I just submitted the secondary, but it never asked for my credit card information to pay the $80 fee. Where do I go to pay it?

I just submitted mine as well and it asks for the credit card info right after you hit submit on the secondary page.
 
When a clicked "submit" it just basically said thank you for applying and you can now exit the site or go back to the homepage. It never asked for my credit card number or anything. I just checked the status page and obviously it says that the fee isn't payed. Is there a way to go back and pay for it?

I would definitely get in touch with their office about it since it just worked fine for me.
 
Congrats to everyone who got interview invites!

On my status page, my Interview Status says "Interview Offered" and Scheduled Interview Date says "09/30/2009"... but I didn't get an email from them 😕... did anyone else have this problem?

Good luck to everyone else with your apps! :luck:

P.S. Just for reference, I submitted on 7/2 and was "complete" (i.e. all fields marked as YES) on 7/4.

Congrats! I have no idea what's going on, but you can try contacting them.

I just checked my status page and I don't see anything, but I don't even see where the "Interview Status" area would be, so I can't help you with that.

Yeah same here. I did not see an interview status. Is there a different page?
 
My secondary application page goes:

Name
Social Security Number
Application Year
Application Status (AMCAS App, Secondary App, Secondary Fee, LOR)
Interview Status
Permanent Address
and so on...

i got the same thing, with an interview date in october... safe to assume i've got one, even without the email, right?
 
You should have gotten an email, but yeah when they offer you an interview, a new section pops up on the status page to give you information for that interview
 
I think Im going to use the optional essay to explain why I only have two science letters. Le sigh
 
My status page also says "Interview Offered" and gives me a date however I did not receive an email.

I'm scared to get too excited just yet incase it's a glitch or something! Hopefully I'll have an email notification tomorrow?
