Have they given a definitive date to when decisions are coming out? I have seen people say 4-5 weeks post interview, 6-8 weeks, and then people mentioning admissions saying lat oct/early nov. I really enjoyed my time at the school and really hope I can matriculate here.

People who interviewed on the earliest date (Sept 12th) still haven't gotten their decisions yet. Safe to say it's completely unknown at this point. \

But we can pray for next week amirite?

They said at my interview they send out accepetances monthly starting in November. The first committee review day is Nov. 8 so you might hear Nov. 8 or 9. Unfortunately they told my group we wouldn’t be included in this review so I’ll have to wait till December. Happy waiting season.

Not sure if you’d know this, but doesn’t everyone get a decision or are some people left in limbo for a while?

Do we know if Drexel is receptive to LOIs?
 
At my interview, we were told to call should we not hear a decision in 5 weeks, which is coming up. Should I call or just hang on til later this week?

Well based on everyone's responses in this thread, adcoms have either lied to us or they lost the paperwork of the earlier interviewees.

It'll be at least 8 weeks since the first interviews if the adcoms are meeting later this week.

That's what I've been seeing, I guess I should just hang on then?
 
Has anyone submitted updates post-interview/pre-decision? I interviewed mid-September.. held off on any additional correspondence since I thought it would be 4-5 weeks, but now I'm reconsidering since the committee allegedly doesn't meet until this Thursday. Bad idea? Thoughts?

I submitted an update/letter of interest following my interview!
They have a tab to upload an update letter on the portal, so I don't think it's a bad idea

Wait you've gotten two updates since August? I've been complete since August as well and only got the original "your application is now complete" the day after I submitted the secondary.

i interviewed there mid october. im not sure how this whole process works honestly
 
I am interviewing here tomorrow and I was wondering what to expect in terms of traffic. I am staying at the Hilton in Bala Cynwyd and plan on Ubering to Queen Lane (DUCOM campus) for my 9:00 am interview. Would leaving an hour early give me enough time?

Looks like Waze says an 8:00 AM departure will get you there within 8-16 minutes, so that seems like a safe time to leave!

I wonder what they are doing this year. I think last year they started interviews around the same time and sent the first round of decisions around 10/16ish. Maybe they are doing waves or trying to figure out how to approach the WL with the AAMC rules

Did this appear for everyone? I haven't been invited to interview and it's also on my portal. Don't want to get any false hope of an invite coming in the near future lol
