II :). Complete at the beginning of September. Lowish MCAT, high GPA.

What should I expect for my interview in January in terms of weather? I've never been so up north, and it scares me, haha.

Expect snow and cold! Dress warm, drive safe.

Wouldn't they send you an R right away if your app wasn't strong enough though? Or do they do silent rejections?

Case doesn't silent reject. If you haven't received a decision and you've been waiting a long time, chances are you're a maybe or your reviewer is taking forever.. probably the former more than the later would be my guess.
 
Alternate list email last week, interviewed early Dec

Hey, do you know what the process is for applying for scholarships? If we got invited to apply for the dean's scholarship what does that entail exactly? Is it going to just be more essays type of thing?

Also do you know if someone gets the maximum amount of 40k for the dean's scholarship can they still get more financial aid on top of that? From what i remember on interview day it sounded like they just give you the one that is the higher value but they don't give you both. Is that correct?

Not sure what the process entails. Others on the forum here can probably tell you.

Yes, correct. Max of $40K.

Yeah they're on acceptance page. It was April 6th/7th

Edit: just checked and it's actually 5th and 6th but they also state to not make any travel plans until they give us more info.

Also got rejected today. Complete late July LM 72. I was sort of expecting it, but am disappointed since I was waitlisted here last year and thought I could get in this year.
 
+1, complete late July. I thought the message was very pleasant and understanding

Good luck to all still in the running

Honestly, no news is good news from CWRU. They told me in a recent email that they are still reviewing apps, and it will take them several weeks to send a decision.
