Thanks for the info
I'm on my fourth week post interview and I hope it comes within the next week or so
They said 4-6 weeks so fingers crossed.
The wait is terrible especially this late in the cycle
HOLLLLLLAAAAA!!! Accepted!!! Definitely matriculating 😀 thanks everyone for your help
II today, also submitted toward the end of the cycle (very late, tsk tsk).
Can I ask what your stats were?
Has anyone been rejected from Temple? Do they silently reject?

I'm thinking they might because I was complete over the summer and haven't heard anything.
PM'd you.
Yup! They send an email to the rejected students. Guess I'm not destined to go here. All the Best to the rest of you!
May I ask when you interviewed?
Also would like to know this as well. Also do most people in Crozer-Chester still opt to live in Philly? Is there a chance you could work out a rotation at TUH for a field that you are interested in.

damn that was quick they sure love you lol. congrats !
Edit: Thank you!!
Yeah I thought it went awfully I was so nervous and stumbling over words haha.
The person who interviewed me wrote a personal note on my acceptance letter, is it appropriate to respond to that or do I just wait till I see them in August? It didn't ask anything but I still felt the love sooo irdk what to do in this situation?
Wow that was fast! Congrats! I interviewed earlier so really hoping so bad news is on it's way.
I really think my case is unusual. Most of the people I talked to had it take a month or more. Also, friends of mine who go there now had it take 2-4 months to hear back so don't give up hope! Good luck!
I interviewed today! There were only 10 of us and 8 were girls! Lol
I am actually really excited about Temple; I liked it there a lot.
However, my first interview seemed to be a little rocky. The guy seemed like he didn't like any of my answers and somewhat made fun of one of my activities. I held my own, but I am hoping he was doing that on purpose and isn't really as "mean" as he seemed in the interview! Not to mention it was an hour long interview. My student interview was like 15-20 minutes though and was much "better", so it made me feel like the student interview doesn't even count. Idk I hate having to wait a month, but I'm praying for the best!

Haha wow! That's interesting. Clearly it's not a huge deal. 🙂 They matriculate 50/50 apparently so I didn't take it to mean anything except they it was funny being outnumbered 8:2. Lol
But apparently one guy missed his interview today. I was hoping he is okay and missed it on purpose. But there's no telling I guess :-/
I'm sure if he missed on purpose it'll go to somebody else next month! Who knows?!

Yeah I agree. They did say, "your faculty interviewer will be your advocate when the committee reviews your application." I am pretty sure the student interviewer just writes a brief review about you and maybe gives a score of some kind. However, the faculty member definitely seems to have more weight.
Thanks! fingers and toes crossed. Anyone from the week of 1/20 heard anything yet?
I am on the other end of the extreme. I interviewed 10/10 didn't get accepted until 2/07. Don't let the post interview wait get to you. It really doesn't mean anything. Good Luck!
Is it just me or is the website where you check your status down?
It's down for me too
Their server is down - it should be back up in 2-3 days (I called admissions this morning).
Any recent post interview decisions? stuck in limbo here but hoping for the best....
Word, mid/late Jan interview and nothing
Couldn't hurt.
From the "financing your medical education" section of the admissions page:
"Accepted students are notified of institutional scholarships beginning in March via an email from the Admissions Office. These scholarships are offered from March through the start of Orientation."

+1... and I am going to have to make a lot of changes once my taxes are filed
Anyone who interviewed end of January or later heard anything?
Withdrew my interview yesterday. Hope one of you get it!
