On my applicant status it says the received my application fee, LOR's, and supplemental application on 7/29. So it took me about 2 weeks to get the complete email.

I know all of my materials were in 8/5 and my online status says complete, but I haven't received an e-mail. Should I call?

Same here, I just sent them an email so I'll let you know what they reply!
I have yet to be verified but I want to begin working on my secondary essays. The first post by the SDN moderator does not indicate what, if any, the essay states. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.

Yes, please let me know what they say if you speak with them.
"Please do so frequently throughout the admissions cycle, as we do not update you via e-mail regarding receipt of items or complete/incomplete status."
Straight from my email that contained my secondary link. hope that helps and save you guys a call!

There is no essay for Drexel, though you do have a chance to talk about any breaks you've had from school (semester/year off) or during your glide year or previous life. Eastern Blot, this has been mentioned several times throughout the thread, but I'll mention to the mod to update the first post.

CC secondaries are awesome when you have nothing left in you to write.
status page: " Thank you for your interest in Drexel Univ. College of Medicine. Our interview season has concluded. All applicants who have not been interviewed are being released from consideration for the 2011 application cycle"

Um.. are you guys serious? It clearly says that in accordance with the 2011 applicant cycle haha... This is for applicants seeking admission in the 2012 class, no schools complete their interview process by August, especially when they send out a fairly late secondary...
interview invite! everyone should definitely check the site, cause i didn't get an email, just checked my status. 🙂
Me too!! It was on the status page, but no email!
YEAH BABY!!!! LOVE U DREXEL!!!

Congrats to you and everyone else!
OKay, I haven't recieved a secondary yet. I called drexel and they told me to wait as they are released in batches....
I'm getting nervous because people are getting interviews....![]()
I was verified 7/18 and didn't receive the secondary until 8/10. Don't worry too much.
I don't have an interview either. People with IIs must have submitted their AMCAS apps on 6/1.

I don't know about AMCAS submit date, looks like people are getting IIs who sent in their secondaries only a couple of weeks ago:
Yay interview invite! I was complete on 8/2. GPA very low (like <3.2), MCAT >35.
As for me, I submitted 7/20, complete 7/21, but I just checked the decision website and have nothing doing...

Um... Does anyone else have THIS on their Decision page?
"Thank you for your interest in Drexel Univ. College of Medicine. Our interview season has concluded. All applicants who have not been interviewed are being released from consideration for the 2011 application cycle."
Is this a rejection or some fluke from last year... doesn't sound that great.
nvm: just saw that other people got this too. bleargh.

did you all get complete emails? I submitted everything 7/25 but have not gotten an actual complete email
Submitted 7/19 but my status didn't change to complete until 8/5 due to late LOR. And no email confirmation.

where do you find out that your status changed to complete? My decision page just says no decision has been made

On the application summary page, there's a table with all your info. Look for "Application status"
mine still says "No decision has been made"
complete 7/27
complete 7/27
mine also says no decision has been made 🙁 i also haven't received the complete email yet? is it a good sign not to receive the complete email?

I got it too. Not sure if it's a mistake or a very poorly phrased rejection.

So the question I have is... for people who have the interview invites on their "Status" line, what text is there when you click on the "To View Your Decision Click Here" link?

I also have this status.
It looks like the same thing happened last year, only last year it said 2010:

So maybe this is not a glitch? I didn't read the whole thread, but the guy who originally posted that he got this status eventually got an "on hold" status.

Yeah, I kind of think it's likely to mean "something" as well. I wouldn't exactly be happy to get a thumbs down, but it would be kind of funny to get my first interview from Mayo and my first rejection from Drexel.

No status change for moi... 🙁
welp mine still says "No decision is currently available. Please continue checking this website for updates."
is that what we're supposed to see unless we got an interview invite?
