Wow I can't believe it....I got an interview invitation just now! The earliest dates are currently in January.

I'm OOS/3.9/30....I thought my MCAT scores would keep me from getting any out of state interviews. I'm excited. There is hope everyone!!!

Congrats!! Can you tell us when you were complete and how you were notified?
 
Oops sorry i knew i forgot to say something on that post haha. I got an email a little before 11 this morning. I was complete way back in late Aug/early Sept. I think it was the first week of Sept. You schedule online with the tmo website.
 
for those of you that was recently accepted, the deposit issue seems to have been resolved. i was able to log into tmo and put my deposit down
 
For those of US waiting to here back... when did you interview?
 
oct. 14th... so I might hear back thsi time around or might not... when did past epople hear back by?
 
A question for those who have interviewed or got an interview.....

I got an invite a couple of weeks ago and I scheduled the faculty interview on their website...and got a confirmation back. Their email said I would get another email in a few days telling me what time my second interview was. Still haven't gotten it. Anyone know how long they take to send it? Should I call? Thanks!
 
interviewed october 8th so you guys aren't alone, just keep your fingers crossed guys :luck:

I emailed them back and let them know that i never got it and then they sent me the time of the student interview. Honestly, it doesnt make much difference because all student interviews are in the afternoon and they dont tell you the name prior to getting there
 
WOOOO, ACCEPTED!!!! 😍😍

I loved Temple!!!

Interviewed Oct. 22nd. GL everyone
 
OH no, the online deposit is dead again 🙁
 
nothing for me either 10/14... not feeling good about this one now
 
status change to accepted yesterday! best feeling ever. Temple kicks butt
 
Can you guys log into the deposit portal? Or is it just my account fails?

Also got the same email.

Dear Temple,

I do not want to enter your podiatry program. I didn't apply to your MD program. Why are you emailing me???

Eternally Not Yours,

BBender716
 
I did not get this email and I'm still waiting on an interview invite.... wonder if this means anything?? 😕

Probably not... the wait continues
 
I can't wait to have an acceptance so i can withdraw from a school that thinks podiatry is a better fit for me.
lol bender didnt even apply to their school and got the email, that's classic.
 
YEAH!! Interviewed 10/29, status changed to Accepted. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

I KNOW!! I just got that too... maybe they're trying to ease the rejection/hold by telling us we'd be great for Podiatry..

They're secretly hoping we'll change our minds about medicine so we don't feel as bad if they don't get back to us.

haha. JK. I think its automatic based on MCAT scores, its prolly not sent to the applicant pool but the people (like me) who elected to allow AMCAS to share their scores....

I actually thought it was a rejection cuz it didn't start with Congrats.. So I'm HAPPY it wasnt!! 🙂

When I saw an email from "Temple University/Admissions", honestly my heart stopped for a few seconds. I thought it was a rejection email. I have been complete since mid-September and have yet to hear anything. They should not do that to us!

Anyway, my first thought after that was, "No way do I want to deal with smelly feet all day!" :laugh:

same here! except with my optimism i thought it was an interview 😛
 
i was accepted into Temple's MD class of 2014 and I still got that email...now that I think about it Podiatry doesnt sound too bad...jkjk...but ya im sure its just an automated message and doesnt have to do with anything dealing with ur app status for MD
 
I also got the podiatry email and I was accepted like a month ago, pretty funny stuff!
 
accepted via status page! 11/12/09
Interviewed: 10/27/09
Temple's pretty quick!!
 
It is absolutely hilarious that at some point today we all had our hearts stop as we saw an email from temple admissions... and that 2 seconds later we all deleted that email (well, most of us anyways)

I didn't get the email either. Guess I shouldn't hold out hope for an interview, I'm not even worthy of their spam mail. 😛
 
Nah, no worries, I didn't get the email, and I was just accepted to Temple 😀
 
because I was curious as to why I didn't get the email I checked my undergrad. email box and found it in there. That's the email I had on my MCAT records and my gmail is listed on AMCAS, so it's just a spam mail to everyone who registered/took the MCAT recently.

The same thing happened to me. I called the school and they let me know that the student interview would be between 2:00 and 2:30. They did not give an exact time.
 
Ugh, that podiatry email. I thought maybe it was an interview invite. My disappointment was quickly replaced anger. How I wanted to reach through the computer screen and slap whoever made the decision to send it. :boom:

Interviewed 11/3, accepted via portal today.

I tried to pay the deposit, and when I clicked the "accept" box it just said "error contact admissions"

Is anybody able to access. Maybe the error is because I was just accepted today and they havent uploaded me into the eligible for payment list?

It's funny because I had trouble with UBuffalo's online payment too. None of these schools have good acceptance deposit payment websites I guess (lol).
 
I called today and the lady said to wait for a letter in the mail, it'll provide us with instructions for the deposit payment
 
I have an interview in early December. Am I interviewing for the waitlist? I like Temple and would love to live in Philadelphia.

I don't think so, they have 180 spots, and I don't think you will be interviewing for a waitlist spot in Dec.

Not sure about this year, but last year Temple divided their class into quarters, so when we interviewed in March, there were still 1/4 of the spots for the Class of 2013 available. This is a nice alternative to rolling admissions. Not sure if they are doing this for 2014 though.
