Same here, I didn't receive an email about UCLA Drew receiving primary/under review like I did for UCLA Prime. Also, there is an error when go to check status on portal.

Worried about the silence, but maybe we are still being considered?

I haven't gotten a secondary from UCLA' s md program yet but I've gotten UCR and UCSD so I'm remaining hopeful for the other UCs!
 
Thank you! Well they told me the next available date is nov 19th(I was told this via phone) so I'm patiently awaiting my email confirmation-- did you also receive the phone call or did they email you first???

Ahhhh ok. I got a phone call with an interview invite then not too long after I received an email with more information.
 
Did it take awhile to get the email confirmation like a few hours? I haven't gotten the email yet--I'm trying to make sure this wasn't some vivid illusion haha
 
And submitted! Such a quick turn around on their part, wanted to do the same lol!

So I take it they don't send "complete" emails?
Did anyone get any further correspondence before an II.

Also any FAP applicants, I attached the approval email when I sent the secondary back. Is that good enough or did anyone have to take any other steps?

Good luck to everyone interviewing tomorrow! Ya'll gonna rock it!
 
I submitted my primary to Charles Drew in early August and haven't heard back. Should I be worried? Could it be a technical glitch?
 
Anyone get called for an interview this week so far?

Is there student housing near campus? If so, is it in a bad area? Thanks.

Since we attend class at UCLA we live in UCLA graduate housing. When we move off campus, most people move to marina del ray/culver city/Venice. All very nice neighborhoods with affordable housing for students.

Stupid question alert: Is the white coat ceremony at UCLA or Drew? Is the degree granted from UCLA, Drew, or both somehow? I assume both answers are Drew but I'm just curious.

The portal error is because CDU's portal is for accepted students from the 2016 cohort. It's not current for the new 2017 applications.
 
does anyone know which Saturdays are interview days for November and December?
 
I'll also be interviewing on 11/19. There aren't any student hosts available right?

For those who have interviewed thus far:
Is the Interview soley a MMI? or is there an individual interview as well?
 
Does anyone have any suggestions of what hotel is good for me to stay at the night before the interview?
