The school will be understanding for you guys in terms of rescheduling. It is just one of those situations that no one has much control over. I recommend that you email first and wait a few days to call. If everyone calls the admissions office on Wednesday morning (when the school is currently scheduled to reopen) that will not be a good thing (think of how you would feel if tons of worried applicants started calling you at the same time to ask the same questions). These type of things happen in life, and you occasionally just have to adapt. It will all work out.

I was complete on 8/12 and my status still says that I am complete and will be reviewed. They have probably seen my application at this point and passed over it, right?
I was complete shortly after you and have the same status. I feel like we should have seen something about being under review; others have. I'm thinking about giving them a call as soon as things calm down in Philly.
They say that they do review one app couple times.
Sent in the deposit today.
It's 3 weeks after the receipt of the mail
just gave up an interview spot. hope someone here gets it!
I would wait 10-14 days when you received notification of a decision (10 if on East Coast, 14 if on West Coast). If the letter has not arrived by then, give them a call.
Interview date?
October

Interesting. 9/19 and no such status change.
Also, I believe there haven't been any rejections post-interview as of yet. At least not on SDN.
At one of my interviews, one of the interviewers took two weeks to submit my interview evaluation. Because of this, my decision occurred two weeks after most others from my interview date. Hang in there!

Good advice. That'd be Friday for me.
I will be applying here too! It's one of my top 5 choices.

I think that this is probably Drexel's admissions office.

What does your status say?
To answer your question ^^.

Hang in there guys to those who are waiting for letters, and congrats to the acceptees and new interviewees!
I also interviewed on October 3 and only just got this update: "Your file is currently under review by a member of the admissions committee and will be sent to committee shortly. No decision has yet been made regarding your admission status to Drexel University."
Why are you so slow and inconsistent, Drexel?!
Congrats! What dates are available for interview?

I interviewed on the 2nd and also have that status....this is excruciating.
Mine just changed too. Any idea as to how long before the status changes to "decision/final decision"? I know it probably varies but I'm curious if there is a general time frame.
From the post above, looks like a little over 4 weeks.
II via status page! Complete 8/27; stats in MDApps.
I have been complete for a while now and no interview invite. My status says a letter will be sent to your mail with status information. What does that mean? An admissions representative said they send all types of statuses through letter. I wonder what will it be.

That doesn't sound too promising...our interview invites were through email.
Yea sorry man it's most likely a rejection. The pre-interview hold is a status online and interview invites are sent through email.
Where does it say this?
So jaded by Drexel at the moment. Their admissions process is a hot mess.
Still no decision!
Still no decision!
Interviewed 9/19...still no status update. It still says:
Your interview has been scheduled. If you've already appeared for the interview, your application will now be progressing through the Admissions Committee process.
Maybe they lost my file? Arg, this is so frustrating.

Same since 8/17. Either reject of send me an II!
Exactly.
can someone clear this up for me, because i see contradicting posts:
are interview invites sent by email, or do you have to check status online? seems like both are happening independently?
😕😕😕😕

E-mail. The status may change before the actual e-mail is sent.
