Lmao welp there it is, the post that contradicts everything I said. Tell her congrats!

Trust me I did, I'm ecstatic for her! I thought you were on to something but maybe it's a total mixed bag?

 

[gethprimarch]

[Doctor13J]

IS or OOS or OOS with ties?

Or Idaho!?

 

[drtn]

I was OS, no affiliation with Utah/Idaho and interviewed in beginning of Feb, they said the class is full so I am no longer under consideration lol

 

[LilButterFriend]

My other friend just got accepted!! She is IS interviewed in January

 

[medschoolplsplspls]

Anyone OOS get a call?

I was literally just about to post “well, it’s pass 5, looks like there won’t be any more calls today!” Haha

You’re killing me. But filling me with hope. I don’t even know how to feel anymore.

Who knows, she could have been one of the last ones of the day! I am trying to go with it that they're done and maybe I can relax tonight

You’re killing me. But filling me with hope. I don’t even know how to feel anymore.

I am dying inside, let's get through the next couple of days though. Jeez this feels like how I felt the morning of the MCAT but for 2 days straight

 

[koster35]

Well...now I can no longer watch the NBA in order to distract myself, so that’s nice.

 

[wildandcontrolled]

First post but I've followed 🙂. Interviewed Nov 1, IS. Email today titled "Application Status" says: "The University of Utah School of Medicine Office of Admissions and Admissions Committee have completed their selection of the Incoming Class of 2020. Unfortunately, your application is no longer under active consideration."

I suppose 'no longer under active consideration' means 'you're rejected but maybe we'll reconsider you in case of highly extreme circumstances', lol... Happy to move forward with my life planning, and good luck y'all! Thanks for providing useful info and commiseration on the forum.

Good morning, hope everyone hears good news today!

If all of us get in, we're all gonna be best friends 😆. We've been through so much together!

 

[Coldwater_Adler]

Another day folks! Let's keep the good news rolling in!

 

[LilButterFriend]

right? You guys are awesome! I'm hoping for the best, at least one of us had better get in!

 

[koster35]

I’m rooting for all of you. Party at my house for the one or two of us that get in! And if none of us get in...then we can throw a party to get over our woes! Unless, of course, COVID shuts that down as well. :/

I second this! We will either be celebrating or drowning our sorrows xD

This is torture. Just do it already. -_-

Wow, still nothing... I'm wondering if they will postpone decisions because of COVID? The U of U said they will be closing classes (at least for undergrad, I don't know about the school of medicine) and continuing with online classes when they get back from break.

My brother is an M3 here. His actual classes/meetings are cancelled but he still has to go to the hospital for rotations.

I wondered the same thing, this seems likely. Very strange for no one to hear anything by now.

I just called the admissions office, and they are open right now but are still waiting on an official decision!

 

[Coldwater_Adler]

I hope not. If that was the case though, wouldn't they have postponed yesterday's as well?

Official decision on what? COVID-19 or admissions?

 

[Swegdaddi]

Did you mention we are all also anxiously awaiting an official decision?

 

[deleted817122]

official decision on whether or not to close the office because of COVID-19

 

[Coldwater_Adler]

official decision on whether or not to close the office because of COVID-19

Will they still be sending out decisions today? Oh well. It is what it is. I had pretty much given up hope until I saw people on here posting their acceptances. My stomach is just in knots, lol. My family really needs this

i didn’t ask about decisions because I figured they probably wouldn’t have an answer on that, sorry! Hang in there!!

 

[Coldwater_Adler]

I just called and they said that they are still sending out decisions and it has not been delayed so let's hang in there friends

Da real MVP!

Just talked to a friend who got accepted 2 weeks ago. He is OOS with Utah ties and is about 95% sure that he will be turning down his acceptance. For all of us OOS w/ ties people.

Thank you thank you thank you and thank him!

I was just in the admin office and saw Dr Chan in a meeting with a bunch of people. Maybe they’re still deliberating?

I can’t imagine what that would have been like to see.

 

[dr_of_rock]

I would probably think it was a dream, I think I’ve had that dream several times this year 🤣

 

[acstylin]

We just got an email that the Second Look day was canceled. Maybe the meeting was about that.

Got a similar email today about an hour ago from the school I have an acceptance at. Seems like everyone is taking action today...

Could be worse, my interview at KCU next week was cancelled today. Their plan? Wait a month and see how things are. Yeeeeaaahhhhh....

 

[koster35]

Alright. Well, watch the emails come out in 5 minutes right after I post this, but I don’t think it’s happening today. Maybe tomorrow, but at this rate I think we could be waiting until Monday.

 

[VTANACC]

This is real dumb. I’m over this

What's dumb is that the March 15 "deadline" is just a suggestion. There's no set rule they actually have to follow.

 

[dr_of_rock]

So we don’t think any decisions went out today right? That’s nuts, usually once they start they go for a few days don’t they?

Last year they did, I wonder if when they said "decisions won't be delayed" if they are still planning to have them done by the 15th... If so the next three days they're gonna have big work to do, because last year they sent stuff out on Tuesday and Thursday and we didn't get that luxury. They will have to play catch-up if they keep their promise :0

 

[Doctor13J]

I would not be surprised to see the classic “this doesn’t mean you’re not going to be a great doctor” post from Dr. Chan in the morning tomorrow followed by the rest of the decisions being sent out.

Likely just too busy today with COVID-19 discussions. We will see!
