Via email?Hold, interviewed 9/16
Yes, via email. It is also on the portal under "communication status"Via email?
I think so. That was my understanding from interview day...many moons ago in September lolIs the "hold list" the same as the waitlist??
No I think it's different I think WL youIs the "hold list" the same as the waitlist??
Has anyone been put on the waitlist? I was also put on hold.No I think it's different I think WL you
Hear once people deny their acceptance but hold is just that they're not sure yet.
Does this mean that as people deny their acceptances, those put on hold will receive an acceptance? I'm not familiar with how this works...It sounds like it may be the wait list: (from their website)
"Applications will be continuously reviewed until the class is filled. Applicants on the hold list will be selected to fill spaces, which may occur any time prior to the first day of classes."
Unfortunately, I'm not really sure how it works either. I think they may treat hold like a typical wait list.Does this mean that as people deny their acceptances, those put on hold will receive an acceptance? I'm not familiar with how this works...
Did you get the additional info tab with a hold too?Unfortunately, I'm not really sure how it works either. I think they may treat hold like a typical wait list.
I only received the hold email. No additional info tab.Did you get the additional info tab with a hold too?
So....I'm in state with fairly high stats and still no II. Should I be worried? I logged in and it doesn't say I have a hold, but I also can't figure out where to find that.
My LizzyM score is above 74 I think. I'm not expecting to get in or not get in, just wanted to know if they were still sending out interview requests. I have had other interviews at higher tier schools. I gave up understanding this process.How high of stats are we talking about? Cuz I know some people with ~4.0 gpa and 38+ MCAT that didn't get in their first cycle.
IS status doesn't matter for this school. They don't have too much of a bias because they're a state-affiliated private medical school. Whatever that means, but the class is split up 50/50 IS and OOS.
Got the Additional Info Tab!!!! Super Excited 🙂)) Interviewed week of 9/26
Congrats & Good Luck !Got the Additional Info Tab!!!! Super Excited 🙂)) Interviewed week of 9/26
Where is this tab showing? CongratsJust got an "Additional Info Tab." Interviewed late September.

I agree with your observation that higher stats alone may not get an II for a particular school.
Looking at last year Penn State stats from MSAR:
In State: Number of Applicants: 1218; Interviewed: 222; Matriculated: 63
OOS : Number of Applicants: 7429; Interviewed: 637; Matriculated: 85
Is the probability high for an IS applicant to get II or Acceptance ??
o wow I didn't know they took more OOS now. From those stats, yes there is an advantage of being an IS applicant in terms of getting an II and being accepted. However, I was trying to point out that it's far from the significant advantage you have at a typical IS institution in terms of acceptance. Penn State is like a hybrid of some sorts. For some public med schools they accept 80%+ IS students and some even going 95+% IS.
+1Does Penn state reject anyone post interview?
And they will never send you an email if you are accepted, correct?
Where is this tab showing? Congrats
Congrats! Where does this tab appear? And did you just get it now?
For those on a waitlist ( me included), let's hope this it true for this cycle too...
* Got this from Penn State's MSAR
