Congrats Tyrion! I'll probably be taking your advice and taking another hiatus from SDN (at least these threads) until the end of March. Best of luck to everybody!

just got a call from a 720 area code. my heart was racing! but turned out to be a wrong number. adsklfasdfka I'm about to have a heart attack.![]()
Accepted. Interviewed 12/7/2011--> rejected late March-->interviewed 12/7/2012--> accepted today.
IS, GPA<3.2, MCAT 38, >5 years patient care experience, non-trad(in case that wasn't obvious)
I feel very honored, for a number of reasons, to have the chance to study at this school. For those waiting to hear something, please take my advice: get off of SDN before you go insane. After almost two years of this, please believe I feel your pain. Best thing you can do for yourself is go out and share some of your good right now with the world. You'll hear something one way or another. Then, it will either hurt less or feel even better, so it's win/win. I hope I don't seem self-righteous there, but it seemed like a good place for me to put my two cents.
Good luck, all! And thanks to all you supportive posters out there. I've appreciated your encouragement at times.

Congrats Tyrion!!!! You definitely earned this! 👍
Hey Guys!
Im a California resident. Hispanic URM with avg stats. 3.7GPA, 30MCAT.
I was wondering more or less how OOS friendly the school is to accept applicant. Are the OOS acceptances usually nto people with strong state ties?
Like i mentioned, im from CA, with ZERO state ties. trying to compile my list of schools for the 2013-2014 cycle. Sounds like an awesome university I would love to apply, but also don't want to waste money if I have a very slim chance.
Thank you for your help and Honesty. Congrats to everyone who got in here!
Any educated guesses on when the majority of decisions will come out? March 15th like 2011? End of March like 2012? Or scattered in batches through May?
since next week is their spring break.
Accepted today at around 10:30 am!
Trad, IS, GPA > 3.9, MCAT - 27, average-ish ECs.
Normally I just hover on this site, but I wanted to post my stats to possibly give hope to all the other folks out there with a low MCAT!
Fingers crossed for you guys!
Rejected around 11am this morning. II 10/5

Hmm... I wonder if this means waitlists/rejections for those of us who haven't heard back yet...
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using SDN Mobile
I called this afternoon and they said that there were still open seats, so there might be more acceptances coming this week and next!
Or perhaps the individuals this year are simply less loquacious and more careful about the personal information they wish to divulge online.
Anyhow, as a re-applicant, I understand how much this coming week sucks for those who haven't heard anything, probably the majority of interviewees. On the off chance this helps, having another year really helped me to grow professionally and personally in ways that I couldn't have in med school, so I would not go back in time to get an acceptance last year if I could.![]()
So, do you think that if we haven't heard anything yet we will be waitlisted or rejected, like last year? I know there is a lot of turmoil in the admissions office with both Dr. Winn and Dimple Patel leaving, but I also know I'd cling to any reason for hope just about now.
Wow, I didn't know that Dimple was leaving! She's so sweet! 🙁
She's headed to the U of MN. Was mentioned the day I interviewed there.
Boo! When did you interview? There wasn't any talk of this in November, when I interviewed, though perhaps it was still on the down-low.
sorry for the dumb question - the acceptance contract that we need to sign/submit within 2 weeks of our acceptance is non-binding, right?
Yup! Non-binding. They just want to know if you are at least interested in attending the school. Some people who have already been admitted to their first choice would (hopefully) opt out at that point. May 15 is still the date to accept only one offer.

Also, March 31 is a Sunday. So perhaps Friday is the day?
Why does it get harder and harder to be patient? 🙄

Sigh. Yeah, probably.

Never despair
Sadly, there is only despair in the pit of despair
