You think there will be any OOS love? Esp if you have a family member that is training there?!

 

[TheHikingLife]

Did my undergrad and subsequent pre-reqs at UB, am a lifelong Buffalonian... looking forward to finally applying this year!

 

[LBurbz]

Troll maybe? 😛 Or so I hope! Unless he was the first person to apply, even then it seems unlikely.. hehe

 

[mik30102]

I'm IS and did not get one either yet. I'm sure more will go out tomorrow.

Got the secondary this morning! 1 page very easy 🙂

Are you done with the secondary after you make the payment? I got the epayment receipt in the e-mail. But when I re-log back into the secondary I can fill out the form again and it doesn't say secondary submitted or anything like that.

I had the same thing happen to me. I think we are okay.

Yep, same here-- I think we should be ok.

 

[demystifie]

How long did it take to receive the payment confirmation e-mail? I submitted it 10 minutes ago and haven't received anything yet...

Edit: Never mind, got it just after I posted lol

 

[kjw1024]

Hmm, I'm fairly certain I received within ten minutes, but it was definitely slower than other secondary payments I've submitted..

 

[AromaticOreo]

Found this page that allows you to check your status. Just have to enter your AMCAS ID. I just submitted mine, so it still says that my secondary and payment weren't received, but hopefully that changes later on.

[pink/\floyd]

Submitted! First choice for sure!

 

[stickshifthonda]

Got the secondary this morning! Submitting tonight 😀

 

[mik30102]

So I paid and submitted but I always check after I submit to see if I can now see my status to make sure it went through. When I checked I could still edit my secondary and when I hit submit again I got a message that my payment had not been received (even though I have a email saying I did). Is anyone else having this issue?

 

[stickshifthonda]

If you did everything correctly including enter your email on the payment page and waited for the receipt to show, the email should be there. Mine came instantly!

Same happened to me when I checked my status. Maybe it takes a day or so to be reflected?

Best. Secondary. Ever.

[NervousNerd]

Submitted mine 2 days ago but still no complete confirmation. The status site doesn't even acknowledge that I submitted. I have my pay receipt though. Anyone else in the same boat?

Ya, same here. Not too worried.

 

[khrisskhoras]

Does anyone know how lenient they are in giving exceptions to the required letters of recommendation?

My status just got updated to "secondary received" today.

+1. How about the payment? I received a receipt but the status still says I haven't paid..

Same here... Still nothing on the payment.

 

[NervousNerd]

I will probably be calling by the end of the week to confirm this is glitch. I'll report back with findings

 

[Karasu]

Got an email saying I'm complete and they will begin review. The above link still shows me as incomplete, so perhaps it takes time to update.

[virginiayankee]

Mine didn't say payment received, even though I got the e-mail confirmation. But they just e-mailed me as complete. So I'd just wait a little longer
