Request the desktop version, and then log in. Should work fine.

My applicant portal was just updated to say the following:

The Admissions Committee has met to discuss your file. Your application is being placed on hold for possible acceptance at a later date. We anticipate making offers around October 16, December 16, February 1, and March 1.

I didn't get an email, I just logged in and checked it. Anyone else have similar/different?

Is that not what it said before today?

 

[joeymdhopeful22]

I don't know. There still may be hope for today. I remember at the interview that they said that anyone who could receive an offer today would still have that message show up first.

I don't know when it showed up tbh just checked it today.

 

[weekendwarrior14]

Today will be a very long day.

Just got new tabs!

 

[weekendwarrior14]

Just got new tabs!

Saaaaaame

 

[joeymdhopeful22]

Saaaaaame

I assume that means an acceptance!!!! Congrats 🙂 Things are happening live time I guess!

 

[joeymdhopeful22]

Just got new tabs!

Did your portal say the "on hold" thing prior to this change?

 

[Morc]

Did your portal say the "on hold" thing prior to this change?

Yes for a couple weeks

 

[SamWinchester]

Placed on hold within the last 30 mins

 

[Talldoctor96]

TABS= Acceptance congrats guys/girls!!!!

 

[HumbleGarbage]

Did everyone else get a new file status box? Confused as to whether it's meaningful or just a standard update lol

 

[datboi_58]

Holding out hope that tabs will just appear before 6 pm and that I still have a shot at getting accepted today lol

This is the equivalent of tabs-- anything new = acceptance YOU ARE IN

Same...

 

[vomitcom]

Just got the new info, so A!!! Woot!!

 

[HumbleGarbage]

@Gudgeon and anyone else, what does the new tabs look like for you? Is there a file status box below the "hold" message that states "Official Transcripts, VCU Information, and In-State Tuition Eligibility"?

Does anyone know what this means?

That's exactly what I have!! I guess that's the 'tabs'??

 

[Bigmedicineguy]

What time did it come in for everybody? Trying to see if it’s all just one big batch or spaced throughout the day. Congrats to everyone who received by the way!

You are in congrats future doctor!!

 

[Talldoctor96]

What are the "tabs" looking like for people? just curious

Literally anything that wasn't there before.

This was directly under the hold message.

Those who did not get acceptance today, will they also be considered for the December 16 offer date ? Or they will be only considered after all the interviews are over.

I remember looking at last year’s thread and seeing people who didn’t hear back Oct 16, but then got accepted at one of the later offer dates

 

[throwaway91021050]

I think it's unlikely we'll be accepted at one of the other offer dates, although in theory it's possible. They'll be interviewing at least a few hundred other applicants between now and December 16 and I believe they only give out <50 acceptances at a time. I'm anticipating that I won't hear anything for a while.

Ya we still will be considered. They put plenty of people on waitlist that they end up accepting. So there is still hope, just be sure to check back in Dec. 16

 

[Talldoctor96]

For all those not accepted today, you will be considered at each date but the chances are not super high. Last year a few people on here got in on subsequent times, but not many. Your best shot is the first time.

 

[Morc]

It's official - accepted

 

[swollenostrich]

accepted.

 

[SinglePayerNow]

ACCEPTED!!!!! I saw the portal change this afternoon at work, but I was not sure if it was real. Just opened the portal after the email and I'm ecstatic 🙂

YOU WAITED 2 HOURs. YOU ARE A MORE PATIENT MAN/woman than I.

 

[deleted971841]

Happy for you folks. Still hoping for an interview at VCU, having a few friends down in Richmond. Maybe one day I’ll join y’all. 😛

 

[rasputinc]

Congrats to all those that got accepted today! To those who didn't - don't lose hope. I don't know the exact number but a good amount of my classmates that I have talked to went through multiple "acceptance dates" before getting in. I myself interviewed in September and only got in off the waitlist in May. Less than a quarter of the overall acceptances went out today, keep that in mind. Good luck!

 

[yxyxyx]

Congrats to the acceptances everyone! I am OOS and have not received much luck with schools so far... VCU sent me a status update last last Friday, around 10/4, saying that my file review was complete and that I would be contacted if I was granted an interview. Since then I have heard nothing, no R either. Was wondering if anyone is familiar with this process and what are the odds?

Best

You’re in a good spot your file has reached a terminal score. If it is above the interview threshold you will be offered one I waited 3 weeks!

Thank you, so I guess another week and a half then? x_x Waiting seems like forever...
And is the 3 weeks a general rule?

Definitely not s general rule. Just my specific case. There are people on here with complete reviews since July who never got a II. It depends on your score but u are in a much better spot than those still waiting to be reviewed

Not necessarily, my review as complete in August probably and I haven’t got one yet

 

[yxyxyx]

Thank you guys!
