When did you interview?? I think people have gotten emails for acceptances, mail for CCL
 
I got a CCL letter sometime last week and I interviewed the week of 11/9. Stats in MDApps. I'll stay on the list because it is so close to home and it would be nice to have that option, but probably will not actively pursue getting off the CCL.

I was also put on the continuing candidate list today 🙁

Definitely hurts, as I truly love everything about Temple. But last year had a good amount of CCL movement so I will hope the same for this year. At least it's not over yet ......

For those wondering, I interviewed early October, main campus.

just curious where you heard this/if you have any more info. best of luck🙂
 
Also, have there been any post interview rejections? Or has it been just acceptance and CCL?

At my interview it was mentioned that they were able to get to the CCL last year. Looking through the 2014-2015 Thread, it seemed there were a good amount accepted from the list (and that's just on SDN). Much unlike the year before, where they had too many people accept and had a much bigger class than expected. From what it looks like, they're being cautious with the decisions just because of the problem they had two years ago. And as someone said before, the decision to place on the CCL is not one made lightly, so I can only hope there will be movement again.

But of course, that's just speculation/hope! Trying not to think about it too much....or else I'll go crazy...😱😱

For an acceptance you'll get an email (after which the portal will change, not before) and eventually will get an official letter with the conditions of acceptance. Wait list notifications come by mail and the portal doesn't change. Don't know about rejections, doesn't seem like anyone in this thread got one post interview.
 
got an acceptance email. I am floored and released from the ulcer ridden post bacc. hang in there to everyone else waiting. this was my second year applying, got waitlisted last year. I interviewed Nov. 3rd.
 
Does anybody who interviewed at St. Luke's remember whether or not the $20,000 scholarship given to students was per year, or cumulative through four years? Either way, I'm thrilled about that, but I kind of forgot the specifics.
 
Wait you get a scholarship if you go to St. Lukes? How did you know?

I have a family member who goes there and I'm pretty sure it's $20,000 for all 4 years (so $5,000/year)
 
"Your official acceptance letter, which details the conditions for this acceptance, will be sent via email by tomorrow and mailed to your preferred mailing address."

I never got it, but I did get a physical letter in the mail after about a week. I wouldn't worry about it.
 
Hey does anyone have any thoughts about medhound? It popped up on my facebook thread so I looked into it a bit. They seem to rank schools with match data. Looking to see if anyone had tried it/could provide some feedback about it before I buy. Thanks!
 
Put on CCL yesterday. Got a physical mail. 🙁
 
CCL today, late October interview. Really bummed, thought the interviews went well and this was my top choice based on overall interview day impression
 
Uh-oh. Called my mom and asked whether anything came in the mail. Nothing. I wonder whether that means I'm getting a ccl or a rejection?

Sigh. Felt interviews went really well too. Ah, well.
 
11/11 CCL. LizzyM ~74. Not too surprised. May withdraw my application.
 
how are y'all hearing? my portal still just says interview complete
 
I interviewed 11/17 and my mom got a letter yesterday about CCL, I'm an IS candidate so may have reached me quickly not sure. Pretty dumb they don't just have it standardized with one method of communication, like I don't know, maybe the portal would be easiest/simplest for everyone....

Crossing my fingers for us all on the CCL!
