Nice. rejection. never small pooled
By rejection, did you mean that you got a straight up rejection letter or that you just haven't been small pooled yet? I haven't been small pooled either, but I think some other people were saying that this could mean getting small pooled later on in the cycle.

The former.
 
Anyone complete on or before 7/8 that hasn't gotten any emails, not small pool nor rejection?
 
Complete mid-July, no word yet either way. Really crossing my fingers for that small pool email any day.
 
Thank god for SDN because I had no idea that the email I received was a "small pool" email.
 
Just got complete email 5 mins ago... Submitted 3 weeks ago - took a long time 😵
 
I was verified 07/14...never received a secondary. Was I screened out?
 
honestly if other people are getting secondaries at a school and you've been verified for over a month, I'd contact them to make sure there isn't a problem.
 
For you AMCAS Fee Waiving FAPpers, I e-mailed them regarding not being prompted to pay the app fee and they replied,

"Since you indicated on the supplemental application that you received the AMCAS fee waiver, it will not prompt you to the payment page as we waive your supplemental fee. There is no further action you need to take. Please allow approximately 2 weeks from the time you submitted your supplemental for us to review your application for completion and send communication."

Sorry but I lol'd a little at the bold...
 
anyone complete 7/11 and after get small pooled or rejected yet?
 
Do you mind sharing if your complete date was before or after the 14th? I am still waiting...

AMCAS was verified on 7/15
Secondary submitted on 7/22
Complete email 8/11
 
Complete 7/18 here and haven't heard anything. Wonder whether it means they haven't looked at my app yet or they just think my app isn't even worth acknowledging :laugh:
 
My bad! I was complete on 8/11 not 7/11

Hmm I feel like they small pool tons of people, so I am definitely feeling left behind. Well hopefully they are still small pooling people for my completion date, and I am worrying for nothing.

Yeah, it's just the beginning of the cycle. Hopefully, we will hear something back soon!
 
I submitted 7/4 and complete 7/9.... 6 weeks is coming up for me this wednesday so hopeful I'll hear something soon. Their email said they will update me with a status in 4-6 weeks...but to not call/email b/c the most info they could give would be "you are in primary screening" .....

Don't panic. They have thousands of applications to go through, so it may take a while. This is just about the busiest time of year for them so it kind of swamps the admissions department. I am an M2 here so if anyone has any questions about the school or application process, feel free to post them here or PM me if you don't want them on the discussion board. I know @tantacles is also on here and willing to answer questions for people. He's an M3 so he can talk a little more about the clerkship years and all that. Best of luck!
 
if we submitted late july/early aug (i had a technical issue that delayed my secondary a week) when would we find out if we were "small pooled" or just overlooked?
 
This Friday will mark six weeks since my complete email. Does RFU issue rejections?

Last year I got a straight rejection after the 6 week mark (December) saying they didn't want to pursue my application any further blah blah. They definitely do rejections but not sure if they wait until late fall/winter or right away.
 
I'm about to go look through last years thread to get an idea of their process...
glad to hear they do rejections... even though they aren't so fun! Better to know than to be strung along!

Could not agree more. The schools that have been doing silent rejection stuff are so much more painful.
 
I feel like these small pools are going out in waves so those of us complete in early August shouldn't worry about it yet. (That's what I am telling myself.)
 
looks like they small pool into sept for aug dates
im assuming that if u haven't gotten a rejection yet then u are still in the running (july completion dates included)
