Got my acceptance email an hour ago. I think the reason it's taking a while is because each email has an attachment that's unique to each person
What's the attachment?

I just called, the lady at the office said "all decisions will be emailed today by 5pm EST". Just a little over an hour left guys!
It's just the official acceptance letter
Lol so evidently they aren't putting personal attachments with the rejections
Got an acceptance email a few hours ago!!!! No call at all, what a weekend..
To those all waiting.
Called admissions office just now. To confirm, all acceptances will be released via phone and / or email by 5:00pm EST today (as in 17 minutes remaining as of my post).
All rejections and waitlist notifications will be via email by tomorrow, Tuesday, 3/7/2017, at earliest.

thats ridiculous...they cant just tell us today if we are rejected?
like im pretty sure rejections are a standard mass email anyway...jeez im so sick of this whole process. Ive been waiting since september and its exhausting and i cant do it anymore. I quit lol WL here is basically a rejection anyway so i take it as a rejection as of now.
just got a waitlist decision

I got my WL email for Duke. Not too upset, was expecting rejection.
got WL just now

Did you get an email of rejection or just assuming?
Nothing for me yet

*Edit "not chosen"

How long is the wait list?
Never been so happy about a waitlist in my life! Also, email said they were expecting "considerable movement", so maybe there is hope after all?
Where does it say that? Also WL but no mention of "considerable movement".
my bad. "a number of opportunities to admit from the wait list". close enough.
Crap I shouldn't have used the same email for my AMCAS as my SDN
same, i guess tomorrow it is
I don't understand why they would only send a partial batch of them out but not to everyone? I suppose it's no use questioning admissions offices' actions hah
maybe you guys got accepted!
i have no idea but ive come to the conclusion (finally) that there is NO use in trying to figure it out, any of it. cause we will never get it and what happens will happen regardless
Pls I can't refresh my emails for another whole day lol
MSAR says 10 accepted. At my interview they said that they over accepted last year and that no one got off the waitlist (though people in this thread have said they know people who got off the waitlist last year).
The 10 accepted was for 2015.
