2015-2016 University of Cincinnati Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Gah, I interviewed 9/2....they've probably had a decision all set for a while, no!? i just cannot even focus at work, this is driving me nuts

Same, I'm dying inside. I'm so tired and I'm trying to take a nap but I can't even fall asleep. I have work at 5 and I really don't want to get the decision in the middle of work...
 
They did say to us on 9/30 that since we were interviewing later it might be "later in the day on the 15th"... Sob. It needs to happen now, the anxiety is killing me.
Awesome. So it looks like I can keep blowing stuff up at work today.
Aaaaaauuuuuugggghhhh
 
On another school thread, someone called the admissions office asking if decisions would go out today and it turns out there was a glitch or something so they aren't going out till Monday. What if that's what's happening to us!?

do not say such things!
 
I interviewed in August and still haven't heard any news.. Guess we just have to be patient!

LOL I thought you said "I interviewed last August" and I was like uhh dude you should probably contact them.

Haha no that would be quite concerning, I don't think I would be able to wait that long 😛

Ugh. Now I want to call them. But I don't want to look like a neurotic pre-med.

Oh gosh. I read the middle of your post before the other parts. Fortunately, I read the other parts before I ragequitted.
 
Just called, lady said admissions decisions for people who interviewed in September will go out today. :barf:
 
Congrats @integrin! Nothing on there for me yet, so probably wait list or rejection. Oh well.
 
Thank you! And don't give up hope, not sure how exactly they're updating the portal

Yeahhh I'm just going off the pattern I've seen from other schools, they post acceptances first, then deferrals or rejections after that.
 
Am I the only person who hasn't heard yet? 🙁 when did all you people who have been accepted interview?
 
I haven't heard anything yet either Lannister, and I interviewed the same day as you!

Okay that is comforting! Maybe they just haven't sent out decisions for our date yet, or they'll come out tomorrow.

The earlier interviewers, like integrin who interviewed in August, probably got their decisions first.
I interviewed at the very end of September and also haven't heard back yet, so... yeah.
Have faith!

Okay! Haha I hate to be that person who gives up early, but to me it's more comforting to just think I got rejected than to have to wait longer.
 
Accepted!!!
If you don't mind me asking, did you get an automated email saying your portal was updated when the decision came?
Or were you just :spam:ming the refresh button like I am?

Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS!!! :soexcited:

I finally bit the bullet and went into the portal! No email in my inboxxx. and THANKS!! 🙂
 
Okeydokey!
Since it's getting kinda late, I'm just gonna assume at this point that us 9/30'ers are going to hear back some other day.
That way, I can just put this all behind me, focus on what's important, and get work d-I WANT MY MOMMY!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Expecting some admissions news from this post so that you can ease your worries about decisions coming out today? TOO BAD, WALUIGI TIME!!!

Haha yeah I've given up hope too. Phone lady lied to me. 😡
 
9/2

Also, still no e-mail. I had to check the portal. Not good news for the more obsessive among us.
Okay, coohoohoohool. It looks like those who got accepted were all earlier interviewers after all. And on the bright side of them not giving email notifications, I hopefully won't be getting a mini-heart attack every time my phone vibrates. Phew!
Thanks for the reply and... CONGRATULATIONS!!! :clap:

Desperately hoping us 9/30 people will hear by tomorrow. I'm going to Disney World for the first time on Saturday and I'd really like to enjoy it without thinking about med school.

I REALLY hope your hopes are right. It would actually be very convenient to hear as soon as possible so that I know whether or not to invest resources in preparing/PAYING for interviews at other schools I'm less interested in going to.
It would also be even more convenient if my left eye stopped twitching due to neurosis about right now.

Well!
Hope y'all can get some sleep tonight.
... ugh.
 
Accepted today! Interviewed 8/20. No email like everyone else haha, had to check the portal.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! :claps:
...
Yup. Definitely looks like decisions haven't come out yet for 9/30.
But we knew that...
Just :beat:at this point, I know, sorry.
But at least it's comforting to know that no one else from 9/30 has been updated yet, otherwise I would start thinking that I got Waitlisted or Rejected because I haven't heard anything yet.
Well.
I am (not) looking forward to causing 9326 nuclear meltdowns at work tomorrow, due to :boom:.
 
Apparently if your sdn profile pic is a cute animal (Pokemon or otherwise) you have a really good chance of getting accepted here. You think Tigger will be just as fortunate??
 
MedOneStop?
With all the times I've stopped by the page, it's more like... MedOneThousandStops!

LOL I think 1000 is a conservative estimate for the number of times I've refreshed.
Someone should call and ask when Sept 30th decisions go out...I don't want to call twice in two days 🙁

But of course Tigger is a Pokemon! He can use Bounce. It's super effective!
 
Is the acceptance confirmation in the portal to hold a spot or to indicate that you will definitely go there next fall?

Just to hold a spot, I don't think you can commit to any school at this point.

I'm wondering too. I hastily accepted, but now it looks like they think I'm definitely attending and there's no withdraw button any more. Does anybody have the exact wording?

Don't worry! You won't ever be forced into committing to a school until April 30. This applies to all schools.
Yeah.
They just WISH you're attending.
Also...
CONGRATULATIONS 👍👍👍
Mind if I ask when you interviewed?

Lol we are so neurotic, was wondering the same thing. And every time I see you post on this thread, I get all nervous thinking you've gotten a decision.
 
i accepted pretty quickly too, but i'm PRETTY sure it said we were allowed to hold multiple acceptances until april 30th. (@Asdfdocasdf)
 
I just called the admissions office. I interviewed 9/30, and I was told our decisions haven't even gone to committee yet.
