Nah they specifically said no updates, no LOI, no additional recommendations because they want to judge you strictly by the application submitted
Got the additional info tab on Monday...no change yet
Sure! LizzyM 69. The interview went well. My first interviewer grilled me a bit on ethical dilemmas and life as a physician, but she was not too intimidating about it. My second interviewer and I shared some experiences (we have both worked with the Amish population) and he had several questions about my undergrad institution. It was very conversational and comfortable. It really just depends who you get--some physicians will like to grill you more than others.
Received my first II of the cycle this morning from Penn State!! I am very excited and shocked and so happy I finally got one. I can't wait to visit!
Complete July 29, 3.66/511, non-URM, traditional applicant.
Best of luck to all still in limbo! You never know what can happen. 😀

I interviewed on 10/5. Can't wait to hear anything from them! 🙂
Accepted here yesterday. Interviewed 9/21
Complete date?
Same here + a silent rejection from 10 other schools as well [emoji15]
I just got an interview invite!! I had definitely written this school off- complete in July. Very excited! (Stats in MDApps)
September 7th
This week has been all silence. 🙁
Same here. Based on prior years the next wave of holds will be coming soon and I hope I'm not put on it🙁.
Omg! I checked my portal around 3:30 am after work. "Additional Info" tab showed up!!! Interview on 10/5 🙂
So I interviewed 9/25 and haven't heard anything back so I called them and they said they haven't made a decision yet...? Anyone else interview in September with the same situation?

Can u share when you were complete?
Just got put on hold for re-review. Complete 7/17
Hi guys! I'm a long-time lurker of SDN threads and thought I'd join in on the "fun" lol...I just got an II today! I don't know when I was complete...I got the "secondary submitted" email 8/23 that said I'd get a "complete" email in a few weeks but never got the complete email. Anyways, for what it's worth, I'm an MD/PhD applicant and there is no thread for MD/PhD applicants. Good luck!!
Does Penn State typically do pre-interview rejections? Or do they silently reject?
Me too. The following message appeared
The Admissions Committee has completed thorough review of your application. Your application status has been updated
