I think everyone gets that once their app is "complete"

Interview invite just now. LM 76. But their interview date is the same day as another interview I have. Has anyone else run into this problem?

Yeah I just e-mailed them and asked for another date and they were quick to accommodate.

congrats man. when were you complete?

 

[pepstc]

Did anyone else get an email thanking them for interviewing, and that they looked over your application and a final decision has not been made but you're still under active consideration? It was confusing

 

[Troyzle]

congrats man. when were you complete?

July 26th

II today for PURCH !! LM 70, NH res, complete 8/8

 

[modernnarwhal24]

[knguyen34]

What are cheap hotel options in the Worcester area?

 

[pepstc]

Yeah I got the same email. I'm super confused since at the interview they said they wouldn't send out any emails about status changes until after October 15th? I may call just to see if it was an automated thing, which I suspect.

Did you end up calling them?

 

[bostonstrong95]

hey guys, if you post that you got an interview, please also put your complete date/LM if possible to save space!

 

[Pharaoh95]

Any tips on the interview here? Is the MMI in the morning or afternoon?

 

[Onthemoonallday]

I've been backed up with many secondaries, is it worth submitting my secondary here if I've had it for about 5 weeks? OOS LM 72

Hey guys,

Do you think a 505 MCAT is too low for this school? I am in state. I have a MS too. And do they do silent rejections?

Hey guys,

Do you think a 505 MCAT is too low for this school? I am in state. I have a MS too. And do they do silent rejections?

It depends on what the rest of your application looks like. UMass does a thorough review of every applicant and does not focus on a single number. As the cycle goes on, people here will be complaining about how long it takes to get a decision, but in my opinion they do a fantastic job at assembling a class.

interviewing monday - any tips?

 

[angdctr2277]

Does anyone have any idea how often UMMS sends out interview invites? I am trying to get a sense of whether they get sent out weekly/rolling/biweekly...etc...

 

[603LFOD]

for the MMI, are any stations more like a traditional interview w/ open file?

Hi 603, they have a traditional interview station mixed in with the scenarios.

Hey guys,

Do you think a 505 MCAT is too low for this school? I am in state. I have a MS too. And do they do silent rejections?

Hi pup, I don't believe they do silent rejections. I have found UMMS to have a very professional and engaged admissions department, and it is my opinion that silent rejections are anything but professional.

i hope it isnt too low for the both of us!

 

[Pup1_2_3]

Haha I hope so too. That test is brutal and I would hate to have to re-take it . I hope the IS helps a little (or a lot) lol.

Just got an II today! Complete date is 7/16 and LM is 73.2. Not URM or any disadvantaged status.

Anyone know how long after the interview they tell you your result (accepted, rejected or waitlist)? I tried to find that online but no luck.

AC Hotel Worcester is very nice and modern. It's also attached to a restaurant if you want a quick bite.

Noice. When'd u interview?

 

[calimass]

Does anyone have any insight as to what the prospects are for an acceptance following the "your application remains under active consideration" email? I interviewed middle of September and just got that email.
