I had a phone interview here 12/20. Do people think there is still a hope that I can get an on campus II? Not sure if its been too much time

There’s definitely still time left for you to get an II. Idk when interview dates end but you’re still on a good timeline after the phone interview to get one on campus.

I didn't get my interview invite until 2 months later, so there is still hope! My phone interview was in September and I just had my on-campus interview about a week ago.

Thank you all so much for the feedback!!! feeling a bit more hopeful

I would say yes. My phone interview was Sep 8th and I just got my II on Jan 10th. That's over 4 months in between lol

Interview invite today. Chose March 2nd. There was only March 2nd and 9th available.

Has anyone that interviewed 1/12 hear back yet?

Has anyone that interviewed 1/12 hear back yet?

If the 13 days trend keeps up, today should be the day to hear back! Good luck!!

 

[platty]

Does anyone know what time they typically call around? I want to go to the gym but don’t get service there.. I may or may not be looking for an excuse to skip the gym.

[Fairplay]

Anyone else from January 12 hear anything?

Anyone else from January 12 hear anything?

Not yet! My portal still says "campus interview complete" as most recent status update.

Me too

 

[ER95]

Yeah I haven't heard anything yet. Did everyone else have their portal updated to include the financials tab? I don't remember that being there

 

[platty]

The financials tab has been there since after interviewing I think.. But maybe not idk

 

[Fairplay]

Portal just updated, waitlist

 

[ER95]

That's what I figured. I don't think I ever looked at the portal after the interview until today and it kinda threw me for a loop

 

[ER95]

Portal just updated, waitlist

Same here. Just checked

 

[platty]

Mine just updated to waitlist :/

 

[WIMNFamilyMed]

I wonder how many this school accepts and how many people get waitlisted -- I feel like I see a ton of WL's, from here especially.. (WL 10/18 for me)

They do seem to wait list a lot. Although I know several people who have gotten in off the wait list (more got in off WL than by outright acceptance).

Has anyone been accepted off the waitlist yet? If so, what’re your stats?

 

[WIMNFamilyMed]

There were 1-2 awhile back in the forum I think.

[decisiondecision]

Waitlisted today, IS. Interviewed 1/12.Bummer Was hoping to get accepted here so I won't have to attend an out-of-state interview.

 

[multivariabird]

Just got an II! I did my phone interview on 12/19. The only option I had for the interview was March 9th.

Good luck! They host a really great day there in Kalamazoo, so enjoy it!

The way western sent their acceptance email is weird. if i accept a spot in the class, does that mean im bound to the school?

I'm not sure, but I think they cannot have a binding acceptance in that way. They participate in AMCAS, so I'd think that all the traditional AMCAS rules apply, like being able to hold multiple seats until April.

According to previous posters, you're not the only one to find the wording confusing. i think nedsson is correct.

Rejected via email. Good luck everybody!

 

[Sciencelover2323]

Completed a phone interview 12/04, and have not heard a peep since. Does this mean a rejection is headed my way?

[gokfacha]

Just got accepted off the waitlist!!! Still in shock, I'm so excited!!!

Interviewed 10/6
Waitlisted 10/18
Accepted today, 11/16

Did you do anything (ie. send updates/LOI) after getting waitlisted?

 

[kipper68]

Couple of things, guys.

1. most people in our class are from the waitlist. it is a unique way that wmed works their waitlist. do not fret if you are on the waitlist. as jean said on interview day, it is a great place to be.
2. accepting the offer does not bind you to the school, but it does hold your place. wmed is really nice in that it does not require a deposit. so if you want to come here, accept the offer. but if you don't please don't just hold the spot. someone else is waiting for it.
3. congrats to everyone who is either waitlisted or accepted!

hope you guys like the school
