Discover Your Odds of Getting into Medical School
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
For everyone still waiting.... does it still say that your app is under review?
 
Rejected over the weekend (on the lords day!!). Complete mid-August.

Applying here was a bit ridiculous given my stats, but I had to try! Good luck to everyone still in the running.
 
So it sounds like this school is still primarily sifting through August submitters? Submitting in October may have been a death sentence for myself
 
I doubt that. I doubt it's that they just don't have time for the later apps. My guess is their perception of the relative fit/strength of the applications that are still open.

I sent in an update today and they were very open to taking it. And I completed in Oct as well. I think if they were just backlogged and weren't interested, they wouldn't have been open to taking it.

It's hard, but now is not the time for doom and gloom. Need to stay focused and at the ready.... just in case.
 
Do you guys see any chance that those of us who interviewed at the end of November hearing back the 21st of December if we were told it would be by the 22nd of February? It's only been a month and the wait has been killer...

I would guess no if they explicitly gave you a date, especially since they review all the "continued candidates" each time. Although there's always a chance, I suppose.
Speaking of which, I'm wondering if I'm not accepted December 21st again if I'll just hear silence or get another email that's like "hey girl. still continued," which would probably be heartbreaking.
 
Sometimes when I check the portal the grey "Hold" button appears on top of the MD button (but since it's grey the hold is not 'active') and sometimes it gets moved to on top of the waiver button... does anyone else have this going on? Not sure what to make of it.
Complete 09/23, apparently still under review?
 
Does the portal change upon acceptance or is it just mail and phone call?

My portal hasn't changed, but I was told I'll get an email soon, followed by snail mail up to ~2 weeks later
 
To those receiving a phone call, is it from an unknown number? I received a call from an unknown number this morning but missed it while in an exam.
 
Interviewed early September, and got the "continued" status in October.

Anyone else in the same boat, who has heard anything today? If we remain "continued", do we get another email?

I was just about to ask the same question. Continued on Oct 15. I'm assuming that if we don't hear anything today or Monday, that we have been continued again! Tis the nature of the beast
 
Congrats on all the acceptances, guys! Meanwhile, any other folks complete in August still waiting to hear regarding an II? Haven't seen anyone post being "on hold" this year, so maybe they're doing silent holds?

Same boat. Although I'd like to hear from them, getting an email in my inbox from Pritzker, getting all excited, opening it, and reading "still continued" would be worse than silence.
 
anyone know if II's are still going out? Been complete since early August, and still have the same Your application is complete and under consideration message
 
so does anyone think they will actually make acceptance calls on monday or have all of them gone out today?
