Thanks! I was complete about 9/22

To those that have been accepted - Are snail mail acceptances mailed out on the actual acceptance dates or before the acceptance dates?

 

[novgoober11]

does anybody know roughly how many applicants are accepted on each acceptance date?

 

[patchadamsjr]

Anyone know how many interview dates they have left?

Edit: Mine was stamped on the acceptance day, which was 4 days before the portal update. I waited 4-5 days after the portal update to receive the snail mail.

The next batch of letters will be sent out December 19th.

If I want to submit a second update through the website, should I erase all the information in the box from my previous update or keep it there?

Just got an II for here - never in a million years would I have dreamed of even getting one let alone turning it down but I can't justify more interviews after UWash acceptance (IS tuition) - hoping it goes to someone else who wouldn't have expected it at all

I just sent an update letter so maybe me??? But congrats on your acceptance, it's a fantastic position to be in...still waiting for someone to love me 🙁

I definitely didn't think I would ever be here after last years cycle - but you will get here too (and it won't take you two cycles) and you will feel amazing- you deserve it

Back in July! Low GPA, high MCAT.

like a actually low or low for emory (<3.8)?

 

[Whyamionhere]

like a actually low or low for emory (<3.8)?

Oh it's actually low in general - 3.55 or so and sGPA is lower - hence my shock at the II!

 

[Whyamionhere]

But I think I made up for it with strong ECs+strong research+MCAT, but if things were based on GPA alone I shouldn't have even applied MD at all

is Emory still sending out II?

 

[ScrubsFree]

II today! So excited cause this is one of my fave, any tips on what the interview is like?

 

[Panther_]

is Emory still sending out II?

I am assuming they are because they finish interviewing sometime in February and I got an invite a month in advance of my interview.

Accepted, I think?
it says "(The following offer is valid for applicants who have received an official acceptance letter in the mail.)"
does that mean i should wait for the mail before accepting the offer?

Well I'm at work so I can't leave home to check if the letter is in the mail, but I'll update my post once I receive the official letter.

Email from Emory...turns out to be just a "how to apply for financial aid" email.......sighhhhhhh

 

[GrumpyGus]

Email from Emory...turns out to be just a "how to apply for financial aid" email.......sighhhhhhh

I saw an email from Emory from their financial aid office with the word "admission" in it. I thought to myself "omg did I get accepted to Emory? They're asking me for financial aid and I think I just got a congrats on your application for admission!"

Then I remembered I never ****ing interviewed at Emory. This is why my ******* didn't get an II in the first place.

I'm going to bed.
