Accepted!!! I'm going to be a doctor!

Honestly, my heart a little bit dropped reading the acceptance email... The beginning of it sounds like they were about to tell me bad news, haha!

I felt the same way! It scared me, but happy we are accepted now!

II just now! So excited and grateful! It says I have to call to schedule, I'm guessing I have to do this during their business hours? Can someone confirm this? Thanks 🙂

Yes, during business hours. 😵

ahh thanks! just wanted to make sure in case I was supposed to leave a message or do it through an automated system. Just got the email now so I wanted to schedule it ASAP.

Better safe than sorry I suppose! The lady I talked to was super friendly 🙂

Congrats! When were you complete?

Congrats! When were you complete?

I was complete a while ago...I submitted my secondary 6/29 so I'm surprised to hear news!

I was invited to interview yesterday, but the admission office seems to not pick up their phone - I've called five times at various points this morning to schedule and also left a message, no response at all...

same! I didn't leave a message though, I just sent an email and said I would call again to confirm. Hope someone will pick up eventually so I can schedule the interview lol

 

[jackfrost2324]

I sent an email as well - their invite made it seem like these spots fill up pretty quickly so I hope I hear back in time. It's a bit irritating that I can't do this online, that seems like a much quicker and easier method for scheduling.

Called - they will be reviewing the 9/29 and 9/30 interview groups this Thursday!!

so will those who interviewed on 9/29 or 9/30 hear this thursday or will it be on friday?

She said she couldn't say for sure, but in past years it looked like Friday!

I was told by a current student that emails are generally sent or on Fridays from the adcom

Anyone still waiting to hear back from this school? Do they do silent rejections?

All quiet on this front, complete since 8/1 (OOS, 69 LizzyM)

 

[1FireAtATime]

@mishamichii I submitted 8/7 and still nothing for me (OOS, 78 LizzyM)

 

[brb]

If its any consolation, I submitted 6/29 and only got any news this past week (3.5 months of silence).

 

[Vocoded Super Saw]

Submitted last few days of August. Any time frame I should be expecting?

+1

On the 10/14 interview date they said they'd let us know a decision on 10/21 (a week from the interview). But since the 9/30 and 9/29 people haven't heard yet, will we not be hearing for another week??

I was thinking the same thing haha. However, that's what they told us that day, so I'm hoping we can trust them on that!

Anyone wanna be that person and call to inquire? I was that person last week but I feel like I can't do it again.

Is my impatience clear enough? :/

The first paragraph of it sounded like a straight up REJECTION like it was about to say "it's not you it's me"

Then they slid in with that congrats....playing with my heart
