I really hope that they accept more people this week. I've been waiting to hear since October when I got deferred :/

I hope so too! I interviewed in October but didn't hear back/get deferred till 01/07!

Or maybe we might get rejection letter in mail on Wednesday...

That's too scary for me.

[Zechs]

Has anyone been accepted after being deferred??

 

[drdr0406]

Has anyone been accepted after being deferred??

Yeah, some people accepted on 12/12 said that they were accepted after being deferred on 10/15.

I haven't heard of anyone being accepted after being deferred since then though...

 

[irochka36]

Pre-ii rejection email this morning. Good luck to everyone waiting!

 

[annabelle17]

Got an email yesterday morning telling me of my pre-ii rejection. Complete around early October. Good luck to everyone else!

I'ld like to believe the deferred list will move this month. I mean it moved in Dec, it's been 2 months since then.
Eagerly waiting.

How do you RSVP the Revisit Day? I got an ecard from TCMC but there's no link to actually RSVP. Is it assumed that everyone will go?

 

[LuckyDoc91]

Anyone interviewing this week or next week?

 

[Stethonope]

Anyone receive the "interview waitlist" that has gotten an II afterward?

 

[DrPotter]

I did it on my phone. There was a button that said "reply" and after clicking that I could RSVP.

 

[angelicus]

When did you interview?

January 9th.

 

[HelloSDN]

Yep. The day after actually.

[WishingAndWaiting]

From what I've heard, Friday is the usual day. So maybe around the afternoon

I thought Wednesdays for some reason. doesn't look like today though so perhaps you're right!

Thanks, I'm new to this feed and appreciate the info. I interviewed late September and wait listed in November but haven't heard anything since. Don't know if that's good or bad

I was deferred in December and haven't heard anything. Don't panic! We'll get through!

We're you an IS applicant?

 

[drmak89]

I hope so too! Good luck!! They definitely said in interviews that review time was around an 8 week waiting period. The students who gave us tours both said they were deferred at least once before being accepted, so I had anticipated that.

 

[drmak89]

We're you an IS applicant?

I'm OOS.

 

[emraldragon]

I was accepted Monday as well. In state applicant and interviewed 1/9.

It's my first acceptance and I am super excited. TCMC is a great school!

 

[WishingAndWaiting]

I guess they did acceptances Monday then...

 

[mmzy]

So has no one gotten out of deferal since December?

 

[peanutsnjuice]

So has no one gotten out of deferal since December?

It appears so

 

[peanutsnjuice]

For those who got out of deferral in December, did you do anything to improve your chances? Or was is it just a waiting game/ random?

 

[loveanswers]

From the looks of it, only one person got off the deferred list in December.

Looks like we march forward to March now.

I guess they did acceptances Monday then...

 

[emraldragon]

Good luck to everyone still waiting. I hope you all get news you are hoping for.

 

[peanutsnjuice]

And congrats to you!

 

[mmzy]

again has there been any post interview rejections? Or are these deferals a "nice try champ" kinda deal?

 

[Blue Blood]

Yes, there have been some rejections.

They are a newer medical school though, so I would imagine they defer and accept a much higher percentage of interviewees than more established schools.

 

[Medicalschoolhopeful19]

Does anyone know if oos acceptances are send out on a different day than IS?

 

[emraldragon]

Does anyone know if oos acceptances are send out on a different day than IS?

For the ones that went out last Monday it looks like both the IS and OOS got it on the same day.

 

[DrPotter]

Is it only prospective students that go to the revisit day? I would assume it's just for students but the invitation has up to four guests as an option.
