Rejected today off of the hold list (on hold 12/8). Good luck to everyone else!
Same.
After this rejection, I don't see much hope for MD (lower stats for MD). Fortunately I've been accepted to some reputable DO schools, so all is not lost.

Good luck everyone else!

Post-interview rejection this morning🙁. Ouch, that was unexpected. I thought the interview went pretty well... Oh, well. Good luck to everyone else!

I'm so sorry to hear that. Do you mind sharing when you interviewed? Good luck with the rest of your cycle.
 
To students that are not planning on living in Geneva Tower, how are you going about searching for other places to live?
 
I interviewed 10/29 and was accepted this afternoon. My portal didn't change at all until either right before or after I received the e-mail.

In state, 3.73 GPA, 30 MCAT
 
I can't seem to find the link to pay my deposit, anyone else having this problem? I received my acceptance package this morning

It looks like they're going through the hold list now. Anyone put on pre-interview hold got a II? I am on that list and I need that II.

Keeping my spirits up

How did you guys check our decision? When I click on the admission term it just brings me to the stuff they received and my information.
 
Hmm so they are looking at pre-II holds now? I saw someone say they were rejected recently after being put on hold in December.. I've been on hold since early October, i wonder if that could mean anything.
 
How can one withdraw from this school? I cannot find any links or info on the secondary or emails. Thank you!

Email. You'll get a super brief confirmation email in a couple days.

I would suggest that you put "withdraw your full name and your AMCAS ID as subject line"

On my end, the portal shows no updates. I received an email with the HOLD info. I was completed 10/17 and put on hold on 11/3.
Which means they will look at my app again and send me an II (by faith)

I'm in a similar situation except I was complete in August, and put on hold in September. I haven't received any other news by email though, and so I was wondering how people were notified of an update via the portal? In other words, where in the portal did you click for an update to pop-up.
 
It just auto updates - there's no place to really check for it. If you get an interview, it says on the first page you see once you sign in. Trust me, you can't miss it (it's a pretty big and bold Congrats!)
