Complete 9/27. IS. 3.85 GPA. Low MCAT. Lots of ties to the school/area. I love Penn State so I'm super excited! Good Luck everyone!

I wouldn't. The school is completely private now so Idk how much of a role ties to the state actually plays.. just my opinion. Goodluck!

4 weeks for acceptances or only rejections? They told us 6-8 but now this is going to make me check my mail even MORE frequently haha
Hmm one was a rejection one was an acceptance and the third I can't be quite sure .... But if you look at last year's thread it seems like a lot of people got accepted under 6 weeks. Unless I want it so badly to be real that I imagined seeing that hahaha
I take your word for it! It still hasnt been 4 weeks for me yet. I don't even want to check the portal for the additional info tab because once I get started with that I will obsess over it. And has it been guaranteed that additional info = acceptance? We're waiting for acceptances to come in the mail, correct?
They don't take update letters so I doubt it'll help
Interviewed 9/7 and still nothing. THIS is torture
When do they start sending out acceptances? I thought it was supposed to be the 17th
Glad I'm not the only one w cortisol levels through the roof lolol

I want to call but I keep convincing myself not to! lol
Would they give decisions over the phone?
I have no idea!

Someone should try to give them a call and see if they do it over the phone or when they're gonna let us know
I agree! You totally should hahaSomeone should try to give them a call and see if they do it over the phone or when they're gonna let us know
did anyone call??????😴
Last year they mailed decisions just as an fyi!
Yes, we know but none of us have received any mail!
They most likely would not have mailed them until Monday
Hey! Do you know if they would mail it to the preferred or permanent address we put on our AMCAS?
On the phone they said it would be mailed to the preferred.
Ballin! Thanks!
Placed on hold/continue to review. Assuming this is essentially a rejection?
pre or post II? I don't believe this is a rejection.
Pre-II. Hopefully we get some good news next go around!
People have been flat out rejected preII so I dont think it is a rejection

when were you complete?
Nope! Still a chance for interview. Unlike other schools, a hold here is not an absolute rejection.
What dates are available? ?
II 🙂
Available dates plz
Still nothing? I wonder if they even sent the letters this week[emoji849]

Dates were early/mid December
12/12 and 12/14
Super confused.. called admissions today and they said decisions don't come for 8-10 weeks. So that means no one will hear until at least November??
so maybe they make a decision within 6-8 weeks and then add 2 weeks for snail mail? not sure. patience is hard...
