I think it has to be on or before the 15th. That’s the rule.
YesDid anyone else here have a pretty uncomfortable interview?
I think the rule is that they need to have accepted a full class size, not necessarily give out final decisions. I might be wrong.I think it has to be on or before the 15th. That’s the rule.
You’re 100% right but when I interviewed way backkkkk in September, they said they would get back to us by the latest March 15th. Would hate to think that people who interviewed earlier would have to wait even longerI think the rule is that they need to have accepted a full class size, not necessarily give out final decisions.

Yeah... it still doesn’t seem like they’ve accepted 3x the class size, which is what their tactic usually is, right? I wouldn’t be surprised if maybe it’s automated/not a calL, especially since WashU is currently frantic figuring out what to do about Covid.They might just release all the remaining decisions by email tomorrow. I got the call on Thursday and still have not had my portal update or received an official email for it. Could be totally automated, who knows.
That’s true! But I still want to know lolTrue but they emailed “By March 15th, everyone will receive an admissions decision. The decisions are accept, wait-listed and not accept.”
Can you post FB link please. I can't find it.Currently 257 in Facebook group. Subtract current students, add people who don’t have Facebook or haven’t added themselves. Maybe a little less than 250?
Current student at WashU, and I wanted to let people know that many people in the 250+ group are current medical students. I don't know the exact number of current students vs prospective students in the group, but when I was applying there were ~125 current students in the Facebook group. This is because all the current M1s are strongly encouraged to join the group and some M2, M3, and M4s join as well. If I had to guess, it is probably half current students and half prospective students. Just wanted to let you guys know before all hope was lost!Currently 257 in Facebook group.

Thanks for update. Would you mind posting facebook link? We can't find it.Current student at WashU, and I wanted to let people know that many people in the 250+ group are current medical students.

Seems like that’s what’s happening... that must mean a lot of waitlist movement this year hopefully.Maybe they only accept initially their actual number of seats so 125 is approximately it.
Yeah cuz ain't nobody giving it up here.Maybe the FB link gets sent out with the acceptance email?
Thanks..
See post #1,231, half of that is probably current students.Thanks..
FB page says....
259 Members
+246 in the last 30 days
So I guess 246 acceptance were given.
Yes, I also had an uncomfortable interview, and I also was recorded. It was particularly uncomfortable because it was not a "chill" interview and all the students were saying that interviews were extremely chill here.Yes, I did. My interviewer recorded me on their phone without asking permission.
That’s what the google overlords tell me...Is today 15th of March? Just checking
I know someone who was able to join the group without having been accepted. I’d like to think your former suggestion is true, but the latter seems more likely!Not suggesting everyone go try, but my request to join the facebook group was approved (called on Thursday but no portal update or email yet). Could mean they have an internal list of who is accepted and just haven't notified everyone yet or they just only expect people to get the join link after they're accepted. Not sure.
We must have had the same interviewer; hopefully there's only one person doing this there.
Thank you for sharing this. Knowing someone else had the same experience makes me feel a little bit better because now I know I wasn't alone in feeling weirded out. In a different circumstance, I would normally have said something because it's flat out inappropriate (and there isn't an excuse), but I felt like it would have negatively affected my chances.
It's unfortunate because my other interview was chill and really enjoyable. I'm hanging onto that positive impression because the other was just one individual. Lately, I have been thinking of calling the office to let them know this happened once decisions come out.
Suppose I should finally cave and make a facebook accountNot suggesting everyone go try, but my request to join the facebook group was approved (called on Thursday but no portal update or email yet).

Today is March 16, 2020
Yeah. Could have saved that happy holidays email for a one-liner today.Feel like sending out a 1-sentence note that decisions are delayed could have been helpful
Anyone else accepted Thursday or Friday not get the official acceptance email or portal update yet?
Same hereAnyone else accepted Thursday or Friday not get the official acceptance email or portal update yet?
Me as well; WashU please do not do a MayoAnyone else accepted Thursday or Friday not get the official acceptance email or portal update yet?

Thanks for doing this for us. I mean sending LOI are probably sill valuable at this moment in time then.I just called. Apparently they don't know how long it will take to get through all of the admissions decisions due to the pandemic. Laura said to check the portal periodically.
Congrats! Has your portal updated yet? Did Dean Ratts say how many other calls she'll be making today?A!!! just got the call from Dean Ratts.
I was accepted last week and my portal is still not updated! I think it takes a bit of time.Congrats! Has your portal updated yet? Did Dean Ratts say how many other calls she'll be making today?
I wonder if there are more acceptances to come then...I just called. Apparently they don't know how long it will take to get through all of the admissions decisions due to the pandemic. Laura said to check the portal periodically.
