I sent a general thank you and was accepted last week! I'm sure it doesn't hurt in anyway.

Thanks! Did you just email it to the main admissions email?

Yes, that's what admissions told us to do on our interview day.
Interviewed on 12/9 and wait-listed on 12/11. Good luck everyone!

I want to make sure I understand what they said correctly- even if we get accepted, it’ll be through an email that tells us to go to the portal, not a call? Will be flying all day tomorrow and anxiously awaiting to hear, so email is actually an ideal scenario!
Yep! It'll be an email saying a final decision has been posted and to go check the portal.
Any January IIs yet?
I feel this in my bones. I feel like I'm just bracing for another massacre.

Accepted! Excited to meet you guys!
Invited in October, Interviewed 12/11 just got waitlisted, feeling pretty defeated knowing this has been my only invite thus far and it's going to be four months before hearing anything else from them. The school seemed amazing and everyone is really nice, Good luck to everyone!
Same, the marathon continues!
Sorry to hear you are in the same situation, I wish you the best of luck! and thank you for your optimism!
II today! Complete 8/30. So excited about this, was really hoping I'd get a chance to interview in NC

any current med students on here who got accepted off WL after uploading a letter of interest soon after they interviewed? i feel like i might not have any significant updates before they start to revisit my application again come may...
If I remember correctly, everyone had to upload a letter of interest within like two weeks after receiving their decision in order to remain on the waitlist. Nothing was said about uploading one after interviewing, and I’m not sure that was recommended unless you had something significant to say.
That being said, I will only speak for myself and say that I uploaded a letter of interest one week after receiving my decision and then again about 1.5 months later when I had more substantive things to write about. And I ended up getting in. Hope that helps!

Sorry, I meant to say uploading a letter of interest immediately after a WL decision! But thank you so much! I will keep that in mind moving forward.
No, a few weeks ago!
Wait, we had to upload one within two weeks? I thought we just had to upload it before they got to us. Basically, as long as we got it in before April it would be fine.
I went through this process last cycle and am a current student. Things may have changed this cycle.
Just got an II!
Complete around 8/13-8/14

Anyone know if Wake still has II to send out? Still hoping out here.
I know several current students who didn’t get II until the spring
If its anything like past years, they'll keep interviewing through March. I got my II in Jan and interviewed in Feb.

They told us at our interview that they’d probably be interviewing/sending out invites through at least February!
Thank you for sharing that! That gives me some hope still lol
I was recently invited to interview here and am so excited! I will be flying in and out of the Greensboro airport. If the interview day concludes at 1:15 pm, would I be able to catch a 3:00 pm flight out of Greensboro... or is that a bit ambitious?
You should be fine! It takes 30-40min to get to the airport from winston and the security line is never long. I’ve never waited for more than like 5 minutes.
II here this week for my boo who refuses to participate in the madness that is SDN. On his behalf: OOS, complete in mid-July, probably ~70 Lizzy M, real cute.
Sounds like a gem. Is he single?
II this morning for 2/5. What is the chance of getting an A since the are near the end? Don’t want to spend more money to be waitlist or reject.

Wake loves a waitlist. They don’t really flat out reject post II. So if that’s not what you’re willing to accept maybe don’t do it. On the other hand they offered 107 spots off waitlist according to MSAR off a list probably of 250-285 people
