How is it still "rolling admissions" if people who were complete in August are getting II's before (or at the same time) people who were complete in July get II's?

Rolling admissions just means that they accept throughout the cycle and can fill the class before the end of the cycle

If I remember right.. they said decisions would go out on 10/17 on interview day.. ??

 

[PHgeek123]

Withdrawing my interview on 11/28. Hope one of y'all will get it!

 

[sillymoi]

Anyone know when they should get back to us? Interviewed 9/19

 

[chevychase]

Anyone know when they should get back to us? Interviewed 9/19

6-8 weeks per their orientation powerpoint

 

[Henry71]

Anyone know when they should get back to us? Interviewed 9/19

Last year, people who interview 9/16 heard back starting 10/15, so even though they give us that 6-8 week timeline, given that we were the first group to be interviewed, I think we should be hearing back this week...but who knows

 

[ready2go2]

II today, complete 8/15

 

[JonSnow74]

Does anyone know if Drexel offers merit based scholarships? Thinking about withdrawing my II on 11/7.

 

[plsmedschool]

II! First one of the season - so I'm pretty stoked! 🙂 Complete 8/29, OOS, LM 69.

For those who have already interviewed, any tips for interview day, where to stay/fly into, etc?

Good luck to everyone waiting on II's/acceptances!

 

[hroom]

Did anyone just get a "Situational Essays" email?

 

[Barbapapa]

Did anyone just get a "Situational Essays" email?

Yeah, I did. Not seeing anything new on the portal... Interviewed in September. You?

 

[JonSnow74]

what did the email say? interviewed in september also but didn't get anything

 

[Henry71]

Did those who got the email write the essay during interview day?

 

[hroom]

Yeah, I did. Not seeing anything new on the portal... Interviewed in September. You?

Also interviewed in September and not seeing anything in the portal... weird

 

[dka94]

@plsmedschool what interview dates are available at this time?

 

[dka94]

@plsmedschool oh and CONGRATS!

 

[plsmedschool]

@plsmedschool what interview dates are available at this time?

There were some late October dates (24th & 25th), early December ones (second week, +), and then more in January! Sorry for not having specific dates - I can't look at the open dates anymore since I already selected my interview date. Hope that helps though! Good luck 🙂

Hi All,
I truly apologize if this is a really stupid question, but what is the most appropriate way to withdraw an interview invitation from here? I don't see a withdraw tab anywhere, and I'm not familiar with the protocol -- does one just send an email or phone call to withdraw? I want to make sure my interview spot goes to someone else! Thank you!

If there isnt a withdraw tab, just send them an email and say that you want it to go to Frogger27.

Did you ever figure out how to do this? Just want to make sure someone else can take my November interview! Thanks!
