Also verified early and nothing. First interview is in a few days, and here I am waiting on a secondary at a school that doesn't screen.. lol

verified first day and still nothing 🙁(

I'm in the same boat as you guys. IS resident (in city, actually), LizzyM ~76, verified early June and still nothing for me either :/ I think I'm gonna try to call the office tomorrow or Friday.
 
It didn't she said to wait and by next week email the director of admissions kelly Kennedy

Complete email today as well. Submitted sometime earlier this week. "Please allow for up to three months for an update." :xf:
 
Wow. Considering this school is handing out holds and IIs before their guaranteed secondary is even sent out to everyone just screams chaos at the admissions office. I'm getting closer and closer to simply ignoring the secondary (should it arrive). I'm fairly certain it doesn't exist and everyone on here is simply liars. Drexel is an imaginary school.

Haha...if only! This is a pretty difficult situation. I just called the Admissions Office and they said if we don't receive the supplemental by the end of next week we should call back.
 
Called about the secondary today. They said I should get it by the end of next week. Not sure if I believe that and I'm getting pretty bitter at this point lol. Congrats to everyone who's gotten IIs!
 
wow, IIs and still no secondary going into long wkend (complete july5). Say I'm bitter, but how can I justify submitting an app?

+1 Labor Day Weekend and no secondary yet! This is not good public relations on Drexel's part. First interview soon but waiting for this one. When I call them, they say, "soon"
 
Called the admissions office Monday of last week they also said call by Wed we see your primary is there if you don't get it.
Called the admissions office Wed and she was like be patient oh they havent even started reviewing applications yet. bold face lie considering people have II. She was like email kelli kennedy next week.
Got pissed emailed Kelli last night explaining I was verified on ******* JUNE 9th (oh all nice though explaining this is literally my top choice school) and have not heard anything.

I keep coming up with reasons as to why I have not received the secondary ... my stats blah blah then I see someone on here getting a secondary with lower credentials so I tell myself its not your stats babe its COMPLETELY RANDOM. I'm so mad all that work to get it in early. idk what the hell is going on.

thankfully no one from the admissions office will be able to read this and identify you
 
Just went to check my status and there is a link to schedule an interview.. but I didn't get an email notification or anything. This happen to anyone else????

So I just received the secondary today, but I was going over the imported list of AMCAS experiences and noticed that there are multiple rows of each activity. Did anyone else have this problem?
 
I'm a third year at DUCOM so if anyone has questions feel free to message me. Also, DUCOM gets 15,000+ applications a year so things do take longer than what you are used to from other schools. Just be patient and you will get through the horrible application process.
 
II when I checked my secondary's status online. I didn't get an email though so I'm not 100% sure this is real lol so Im not going to schedule an interview date yet.

Got my secondary August 18 and submitted on August 20.
