Impending doom looming.

Congrats to all. I guess this means the rest of us will be on Hold for Spring Consideration. Do they do post II Reject?
Are all these acceptances IS?

I think you're being a tad bit pessimistic. Mostly everyone that got accepted interviewed in September and remember the committee does a final review after the peer to peer is complete which impacted the order of apps.

And also I believe they do reject post interview, at least that's what my interviewer told me.

Agree! Said we’d hear by end of Jan/early feb so I doubt they sent all of the acceptances only today
Accepted! Interviewed the middle of November! First acceptance of the cycle omg I'M GONNA BE AN MD!!
Oh damn, they really skipped dates. I interviewed in October 3rd and nothing.
Just got accepted! Interviewed mid November, in state.
Damn they are really sending decisions rn? Lol
Received an acceptance. Interviewed 10/05! Super excited. This is my top choice.
Congrats! This morning or last night?
Accepted this morning!! Interviewed 10/30
Anyone from 10/3 get accepted?
Interviewed right before Thanksgiving, got the A last night.

Has anyone who has been accepted and sent the reply form to the Downstate admissions email received a confirmation?
I received it this morning, sent at like midnight yday
Oh lol i haven’t received a confirmation email and i sent it at like 5pm yesterday... what did it say?
Confirmation of form receipt, accepted student resource and FB group links, and info about shadowing a student/getting 1-on-1 fin aid meeting
ok guess i'll wait a few days and then email if I still haven't received anything

Does anyone know if they said they’d release in waves or if all acceptances (of people who interviewed so far) were sent on Monday?
Does anyone know when they send out rejections for those that do not get an II?
I applied to the MD/MPH program at this school and I just got accepted to the MPH program but have not received an interview from the MD program... Does anyone know why this happened? Are the two programs completely independent of each other to the point where I can get accepted to one and rejected from another?? v confused haha
Hey, same here! I'm not sure on what to do... should we send an update? I really want to go to Downstate. Still no interview! 😳

So I was actually thinking of doing the MPH at Downstate if this cycle didn't work out (and if I got into Downstate I was strongly considering the MPH as well) -- I haven't heard back yet though. Long story short, when I spoke to the MPH admissions, they told me that the MPH acceptance is contingent on an MD acceptance first. But anything is possible - maybe they split your app up for some reason. I'd email or call and ask.
