I got the " A final decision has been reached by..." status on the portal since Monday but I have not received any e-mails or calls. Does anyone knows what this means? Is anyone in the same position as me?

 

[Doc City]

Did anyone receive a reply when they wrote adcom about staying on the alternate list(s)? Just want to make sure I don't lose mah spot. Thanks!🙂

+1. Maybe they're sending us a cake in the mail?

I don't have my interview day slides on me to check, but I remember that the 4 year MD/MPH curriculum is fairly new. Isn't there still the MD/MPH program which you apply for once you're already in and it adds on a 5th year? Or am I making this up...just trying to see what all the options are...

Yes I remember there is that option too-- the MD MPH that adds a 5th year... They just didn't focus on it because their integrated 4 year MD MPH is so emphasized.

This may be because your application was re-balloted by the committee for it to be re-scored.

I have been complete since the first week of July. My portal still says my application is under review. Any ideas as to why I haven't been reviewed/scored yet?

8000 applications take a very long time to get through.

I cannot speak to its specific merits, sorry.

Me. Should we worry??

I got cane link info, but it does not work.

 

[Chasing Never Land]

I got cane link info, but it does not work.

Mine works in the sense that I can log in. But there's nowhere yet to accept the offer, is what I think the previous poster meant.

Got it. Mine just doesn't work at all, can't login working on getting that fixed. Have you or anyone received the formal acceptance letter? I was not sure how long it takes for that to come in, I know my email said it has a form we have to respond to to claim the spot.

The formal mailed letter said that we would be able to do it on CaneLonk lol. After Dec1. Which is why I'm confused.

Btw did you check you're including the "-" in your password?

Of course it does haha. Yeah I tried multiple combinations of the password, their IT department told me my login expired before they emailed it to me so I have to call to re enable it.

[bluetovah]

Does anyone know where to find scholarship information? If/what types of need-based or merit scholarships Miami gives?

I guess it may be a good thing I haven't recieved word (complee since July). I really take it as a badge of honor that I haven't been rejected yet because this school in this location is just heaven in my opinon haha.

Same boat. I am really hoping I hear back from them, specifically with an II

Hey, do you know if students in the alternate list qualify for scholarships, specifically the diversity scholarship?

I'm in the same boat as you (similar stats, complete early August). It's not over 'til it's over.

 

[neuronz]

Does anyone know when merit scholarships will be given out?

 

[Caffein3]

Same! Except late July :O

 

[maineiac23]

II this morning! OOS, complete late August

No, all that means is we haven't gotten to it yet. 8000 apps take a long time.

Any accepted student may qualify for scholarship. Whether or not you came off the alternate list isn't a factor.

 

[ineedadocta]

Hooray! I got an interview!

Does anyone know how the dates work? I got to choose four and I'm not sure how they let me know which one I got?

They will send you the confirmed date via email, should not be too long after you submitted the dates.

Congratulations btw!

 

[mauroz]

II IS! 🙂

 

[horse__pills]

Thanks! I'm really excited, especially since I was complete so late 🙂

Any tips for accommodations? Is the MIA airport the best? Will I need a hotel or can I stay with a student?

MIA airport is definitely easiest, only 10-20 minutes from the school if I remember correctly. student hosting info is sent in a separate email. good luck!

 

[TurknJDandJD]

Looks like there's some good movement this week! Has anybody recently changed from "currently being reviewed" to "scored"? Thanks!

II OOS this morning! 71 LizzyM - Complete early September. My application had been scored for just over four weeks.

This was for the MD/MPH program and the first available interview date was January 25th.

II OOS this morning! 71 LizzyM - Complete early September.

Congrats! When did your status change to scored if you don't mind me asking? I was complete mid-late September

 

[Nervus Terminalis]

I was scored in early November

 

[membername24]

For someone who got an interview to both programs, does it show both MD and MDMPH in your status on the portal?

 

[medic86]

Crap. I just realized that I'm still not scored and it's December.

 

[gyrfalcon]

Crap. I just realized that I'm still not scored and it's December.

Hang in there! I can't imagine that they would end the interview season until everyone is scored.
