Does anyone have any idea when someone who interviewed on October 13 should hear back? I know this school is behind in terms of sending out decisions.

I interviewed September 8 and heard back by mail on October 30. I chose the Early Decision option also.
 
Interviewed November 3rd. This is the only school I applied to due to a late MCAT score. Would be accepting the offer if accepted. Has the consensus been a full month wait for a response?
 
I received and Interview Invite on Friday for the LECOM Erie Campus. But it seems like their first available date is January 12th. Does anyone know if LECOM has really given out all their interview invites for November/December?
I received my notification that I was invited for an interview October 23rd. I logged into the portal that day and there were quite a few days available in November and had my interview November 3rd. Im not sure if they filled that quickly or what.

I interviewed 11/3 as well. The portal changed the same day to "Thank you for interviewing at the Erie Campus, you will be notified when the committee makes a decision on your application."

No update other than that.
 
Same here. I looked through the last year forum. Looks like some received their decisions in 2 weeks, and others in 4 months. The longer you wait, the higher your chances of being wait listed. The wait time had something to do with your learning pathway preference also.

Can anyone tell me how long it took from the time portal changed to the time the letter was received? This wait is killing me, haha.
 
I am interviewing here this week. Could any of you who have already interviewed here please PM me? I have a few questions, so if any of you kind beings would be willing to help, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
 
Yes! Like what determine one's eligibility to get the secondary app (particularly for OOS)? According to the CIB handbook, not all applicants get a secondary app.
I am not sure of the criteria that needs to be met in order to receive a secondary. I can only speak on my particular circumstances. Sorry!

Portal change this morning.
The Admissions Committee has made a decision on your application. You will receive an official letter in the mail within 30 days

Anyone else see this?

I think this means that they've put the decision in the mail. Mine changed last Tuesday, still waiting for the letter!

Yep, mine changed to that November 8th and still have not received the letter. I interviewed November 3rd.
 
Anyone else get a status change? Day isn't even over yet, though judging by last year a decision on 11/15 is accept, anything after is alternate.

🙁
 
Hi guys I interview tomorrow at the erie campus. I wanted to get some inspiration on the "why lecom Erie" question. If there is any student or applicant that can give me some good things about the school that would be super helpful. I like that they care about student health with the wellness center, the cost is low, and my mom went to lake erie for PA school and she had good things to say. Thanks!
 
check your portals!!! I didn't get an email but I interviewed 10/20 and portal change today telling me a decision has been made ! here's to hoping this letter doesn't actually take 30 days
