II today
Congrats!!
II today
yesanyone in this thread seen a secondary? seems so delayed!
I was just wondering the same - are we supposed to hear back before the break or will it be next year?
If accepted to an accelerated program, (EM, Family Med, Neurosurgery, etc.), Anyone know if you can apply/ accept a residency match to programs outside of Penn State? Or (upon satisfactory completion of all requirements) you must matriculate to Penn State's residency program
I’m a current first year and you are correct!First, I am not a student here (hoping for II right now) but I did speak with the head of the neurosurgery accelerated pathway and asked this very question.
In other words, please feel free to fact check me, as I am pulling from the limited knowledge of 2-3 conversations.
When I talked to Dr.Dias, he explained that the program can “part ways” from you (no idea what would lead them to discharging you from the program) and you can part ways from it at any point. If this happens, you just shift into the normal MD track. The reason that this is relevant to the question is because if you stick with an accelerated pathway, you are slated to complete your residency at Penn State.
At least in the way that I understood it, if you want to apply to more than Penn State’s residency then you will forfeit your “guaranteed” residency for Penn State because you would essentially be leaving the accelerated pathway.
Honestly, if I were you I would reach out to the program that you are interested in. Dr.Dias was an amazing person to talk to and more than happy to answer my questions despite the fact that, at that point, I had just submitted my primary! Also, their input is probably more valuable than mine
Also, if anyone has information that contradicts this information I will happily edit

11/13 or today?Placed on pre-II hold on 11/13. App was complete early August. OOS, LizzyM ~70. Sounds like this is a soft R according to the thread?
On 11/1311/13 or today?
I am not but I explored them and have friends in almost all of them! Feel free to send me a direct message with your questions and if I don’t know the answers I can reach out to some people that would.You wouldn’t happen to be in an accelerated pathway would you?
I still have questions that are more student directed haha

Placed on hold, complete early August
Hope is alive! Email was today, LM ~75Sorry to hear it, at least there is still hope! (Not a rejection)
Did you get the email today?
Also, if you don’t mind, what is your LizzieM score?
Did they send u an email?Placed on hold, complete early August
I checked through last years thread, seems like the trend is that they re-review starting March.Has anyone heard anything back after being put on "Hold-continue to review"?
II last week. Scheduled for January
Congrats! When were you complete?II last week. Scheduled for January
Sorry to be that person, but does this school accept updates?
How do we do a transcript update? Do we send an unofficial transcript to the admission email with updated fall grades?Not unless it’s a transcript update
Early August. I think it was around 7th if I remember correctly. I'm OOS but have family in the area so I'm super excited about this!Congrats! When were you complete?
+1, wondering if I should just email admissionsHow do we do a transcript update? Do we send an unofficial transcript to the admission email with updated fall grades?

This was first contact. Looking through last years thread people placed on hold that ended up getting II didn’t get theirs until March.Awesome, congrats!! Did you receive an on-hold email, or was your II the first contact you’ve had since your app was complete? Sorry for asking I’m just still a little hazy on how their system works.
I emailed them my latest transcript and received an automated reply about how they wouldn’t accept any updates unless it was a transcript. I’m honestly confused??How do we do a transcript update? Do we send an unofficial transcript to the admission email with updated fall grades?

II Today, scheduled for early Feb, I was wondering how people have been traveling into the area. Direct flights are a bit pricy, but all of the surrounding cities are a bit far (about 2 hrs closest).

+1. A few people in this thread have mentioned rejections, so it’s really weird. People have been getting rejected, put on hold, IIs and accepted. And then there we are stuck with silence...Does anyone know if this school soft-rejects? Complete early August but still waiting in the dark
+2, I was complete early September and nothing since then+1. A few people in this thread have mentioned rejections, so it’s really weird. People have been getting rejected, put on hold, IIs and accepted. And then there we are stuck with silence...

From looking at previous threads it seems that no news is good news.
