Omg it's Oct 15 in Michigan...

"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Acceptance soon would be there.

The premeds were nestled all snug in their beds,

While visions of white coats danced in their heads."

stop now I'm getting homesick for MI....I'm broiling right now down south.
 
Idk. I can't sleep though. Oct. 17th is in 13 minutes and the anticipation of it possibly being automatically sent out right at midnight is keeping me awake.
I will stay up with you! I wonder if it is automated like emails go out immediately on the 17th with the status changes or if they have to initiate it. Or if they send them manually. I am excited. I hope they dont prolong to the 28th.

I'm guessing they're automated because my II email was sent at 3 in the morning. Why would they wait until the 28th?

I wasnt quite sure if 15th was the date or not there wasnt a lot of movement on the forum last year on the 15th.

Nothing here yet. sigh another restless night.

I have been poking around in the portal as well trying to get it to give me its secrets. I bet it will be generic email that will be initiated by someone during business hours. Oh another week will kill me. It is my top choice right now.

Seems like the first wave of acceptances is sent out around the 26th based on previous years :/

There was one person who claimed they had an acceptance prior to that in the thread. But I agree. Someone should call to figure this out. I hate calling the office and pestering them, plus i have a 9-5.

My friend is an M1 here and based on the email screenshot he sent me last year, he received his acceptance on the 26th with a generic email, subject line: "Welcome to the WSU School of Medicine."

Were acceptances last year all sent around the 26th, or was Wayne a week late?

My portal hasn't changed. Still "Invite to Interview" status.. Patiently (not so patiently) waiting
 
Do you guys think all of the acceptances for today (and by extension this month) already went out at 2 pm?
 
I just called and was told that after today's batch there will be more decisions released once a month until February. I couldn't confirm which interviews were included in the batch that was released today and I don't know what it means for those of us without emails!
 
Anybody know when they normally send them out each month? Just wondering because I have my interview next friday and I was curious how long it takes to hear back.

I know last year they sent out decisions around the 23rd of each month, I believe. Not sure about this year, though.
 
I just got put on the wait list. How much movement do they usually have from the wait list?

During my interview, one of the tour guides really stressed that the waitlist is not the end. He was put on the waitlist and was accepted a few months later as were many of his classmates. He told us it's not the end of the road by any means.
 
" it is the Admissions Committee’s decision to place your application in our alternate category at this time"
 
starting to get scared now that waitlist decisions are going out!

can everyone share their interviewed dates going forward just so we can keep from asking that every 2 seconds 😛
