Still no status update for me. But, I'm looking more on the bright side... at least I'm not rejected--yet.
complete status 7/23, just got the following! 🙂 (oos)
The committee's file review indicates that they are interested in your candidacy. However, due to the increase in the applicant pool this year, it is clear we MAY be unable to interview all the candidates at your priority score. If we do find that we are able to grant an interview you will be notified by e-mail in March.
I'm still hoping that #2 turns out to be an interview!!!![]()
Can someone explain what this "#2" thing is about?
I submitted my VCU secondary today, still waiting for letters to get there. Hoping to be complete sometime next week.
I think #2 is the second best status message you could get. It is the MAY message which usually, but not always, lead to an interview.
Below are 5 possible status you could get, but not necessarily always in the following order:
#1: very interested
#2: MAY
#3: further
#4: sub-committee
#5: rejection
Do people actually get #4? Or is that an internal process? I was told that my application was completed and it will be reviewed by the committee.
My friend, on the other hand, was told that he was put on hold and will be reviewed by the sub-committee...
Is there a difference?
Yeah, your friend got #4 and you will get your priority status message once they're done with the initial review.
no they do...ive had number 4 for like 2 weeks now.ok thanks...but he had to call to get his status. So I guess they don't really tell you if you get #4?
no they do...ive had number 4 for like 2 weeks now.
That's #2 right? Congrats!
congrats that is #2! wow they send status updates over the weekends too? back to checking my email obsessively![]()

I sent my secondary application yesterday Saturday August 22 and I received
email today indicating I was rejected, I have not received my MCAt result yet,
I am really disappointed , Why VCU consider application before receiving MCAT
results?I was pre-interview hold last year
Just got the "may" message...pretty excited but wishing i could get an interview the same time that im going to EVMS in september and they said it will be in march for vcu...do you think i could still send an "in the area" email?

just got the "may" e-mail also. 🙁
what does the "may" email say exactly?
Has anyone's status gone backwards? I was marked complete last week, and when I checked this morning, I was still marked complete. However, I just got a email from VCU saying my status changed. When I checked the website, it said:
Your supplemental application has been received. Check your File Status for any items that may be pending. As soon as your file is completed, it will be forwarded to the Admissions Committee for a decision on interview.
..does that sound like I went from "Complete" to "Not Complete"?
So anyone have any advice about whether i could send an "in the area please interview me" email since i will be there for EVMS in Sept even though VCU says i wont hear from them until march (i got the "may" email)

Happened to me. When I called they said I was going to the sub-committee.
Did you go back to the "complete" status, or move to one of the ranking statuses?
I went back to complete. I called on an unrelated matter and they said I passed the sub-committee and was now undergoing a review with the entire adcom. So hopefully I pull through.
im marked as complete...hope it changes to "we dont need your interview, your automatically accepted with a full scholarship"
yep i got sub committe --> rejected.so did anyone notice a change in status from further to may, or sub-committee to further, or from further to rejection, upgrade, downgrade etc.?
yep i got sub committe --> rejected.
Sorry to hear that. Good luck with your other schools!yep i got sub committe --> rejected.
i hate it too, i knew id be rejected based on my sat scores anyways, thats basically what they told me lol. So stupid that any school takes into sat score.sSorry to hear that. Good luck with your other schools!
P.S. I hate the new MDApps layout. It's confusing, and takes forever to load.
