just got rejected...i am doomed.

 

[CellPowerhouse]

You means you got email reject after that???

Yep, I got the rejection e-mail shortly after checking my status portal.

 

[CellPowerhouse]

Ugh. Just saw that status too.
Sorry that I can't contain myself, but did y'all that got that status do 2 or 3 essays?

I did 2 essays.

Did you all have the "Your application is complete and will be reviewed continuously throughout the interview season. Interviews are by invitation from September to March. If you are invited, you will receive a e-mail or phone call to schedule an interview." message before your rejection? Trying to figure out if they do: Complete -> "Hold (as status above)" -> Reject or Complete -> Reject, or some other random variants...

Sorry for everyone that got cut loose today! Another day in the life of medschool application season... 🙄 What has helped me: business-cat.

It has always just been that status until today,

When were y'all complete?

Complete 7/24.

 

[dukie_lc]

Rejection letter right as I walk into my final

 

[fhexhockey]

Rejected, complete early August. 3 essays. LizzM 74-75.

 

[SorensenMD]

Anybody get the status but not get the email yet? My status has been that all day but I got nothing here

 

[allanMED15]

Yep. Just got the boot.

 

[robin911]

Ugh... I have not heard a peep from them since I applied mid-august...so maybe they just have not gotten to August 15+ yet for the rejection wave. Though I am trying to maintain optimism.

There were people on the previous page who were complete after 8/15 and they were rejected.

+1, all day long, but not email reject

Thx for the info. I should be more proactive about reading all past posts.

 

[rukia013]

Is the portal still down? I've been trying every few hours and still getting the error message... (I've tried on IE and Chrome for PC)

 

[Gracie_1984]

[rukia013]

try clearing your history. My portal is fine and has been since about 7pm ET

I tried that just now and I get a blank page when I log in...Thanks for the suggestion though!

EDIT: It's working fine now; guess I should have closed out of the browser before trying to log in again!

 

[Dirtybird]

^Doing that worked for me on Safari (closing out of the browser)

Still the "will be reviewed continuously" status for me, was complete on 9/23 though

Sorry to hear about all the rejections, the "you will be receiving..." and subsequent rejection seems a bit cruel :/

7/30

 

[swolesoul]

Rejected.

 

[jmpatt29]

rejected today! complete end of july! Good luck guys!

 

[arabella_fig]

Does anyone know if it's open or closed file for the interviews?

 

[restlessdriven]

Does anyone know if it's open or closed file for the interviews?

Open but I'm not sure they have grades or your MCAT score. My interviewers had made notes on my extracurricular activities and personal statement. They had specific questions ready to go already.

 

[deleted642188]

Rejection too like many other; ready for review 9/06

Anyone else still holding on for dear life? 😛

 

[eastergrab]

Rejection email this morning, as expected (got the status update yesterday afternoon). Good luck to everyone still in the running!

 

[Okazaki Frag Grenade]

yep 🙂

 

[Glasseskindagal]

Still haven't received an II but so far no rejection either... I guess that's good news?

 

[CyrilFiggis]

So long, Wake. You've been a fun thread.

 

[Mark Antony]

I'm still on the "reviewed continuously" train as well. Hoping for the best!

Those of us remaining: strategies to stay foolishly optimistic before judgement day?

Whiskey and Christmas music does the trick for me.

[Gingy]

Sent an update, but was told it's not guaranteed in will be reviewed. Uh oh...

Don't worry, that's their standard response to updates.

 

[Thpinky]

just checked my portal and still having the "being reviewed" status but I was complete pretty late so maybe they haven't got to my app yet. I was wondering if anyone can tell me where I can send in updates?

You can send updates to [email protected]

 

[asturner91]

Whew still in the "continued to be reviewed" group. Just gotta hold out till this semester's grades are posted so I can send that update.

I just sent an update this morning. Apparently they don't accept grade updates. They told me they deleted the new grades from the update.

Thank you for posting this!! It's really good to know, actually as all of us are waiting for our grades to update, haha

Any IIs today? Thought there was a chance since they just did a mass purge yesterday

 

[FumblyBumbly]

Yes, this is my hope too but with my luck, there'll be another purge that I won't survive tomorrow... 🙁

 

[raffalaffi]

Any one else get the portal update but never receive an email?

 

[Easonred57]

Got the update, then the hammer. Oh well.

 

[sunshine93]

So I just sent an update to the wake forest admissions email... Is that okay? Was I supposed to mail it? Is there any other way to send an update?

 

[mnasir94]

Anyone to complete early Oct hear back yet? I know I'm at the end of the line but I want to know just exactly how far back haha

Submitted mid September, complete email in October. All quiet since, still have the "constant review" status. You are not alone my friend

 

[econ1000]

Really hoping some II go out this week. Complete since August and would love to hear from this amazing school!

 

[XxThaDoggxX]
