2016-2017 Rosalind Franklin University Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Does anyone know if there is a second look day?

Congratulations to all the acceptances.
For a second look you can either come on the Open House (3/18 is next one), the Accepted Students Days (usually in Jan or April), or if you're local - PM me and I'll take you around.

Feel free to PM if you have any questions.

Thank you, unfortunately, I am not local and I will have to wait for one of the Accepted Students Days. Hoping to meet some of you then.
 
Can anyone provide the MSAR data on accepted MCAT scores (you can PM if you like)? Thanks, just trying to gauge where I would stand here...
 
Rejected, OOS, Complete 8/8

513 MCAT, 3.9 masters gpa, lower ugpa

Dang you and I have very similar stats. Sorry to hear that you got rejected. I've been placed on hold since Sept 13 th. Best of luck to you this cycle.
 
congrats on acceptances! I don't know where I stand, but I hope I get some good news too.

Thank you. Good luck to you as well!
 
Received the complete email today. Secondary submitted 8/16
 
The complete email says that we should expect to hear in 8-10 weeks about the status of our application. In your experiences, has it been less than that amount of time, or around that ballpark?

It sounds like a hold. Did this come at the end of a window (e.g. 6-8 weeks) they gave for when you should hear your next status update?
 
anyone interviewed 30/9 hear anything back yet?
