This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
@CWRU.Sman Thank you for clarifying your policy for LOIs. I was wondering if we do upload one to the portal, should we address our interviewer and the admissions team? I've never sent a LOI so I'm not sure exactly to whom to address my letter. Thank you for continually decreasing our neuroticism!
You can just address it to Dr. Mehta but it will be seen by the entire admissions committee.

If sending a single combined update/loi for CCLCM and CWRU is it okay to have addressed it as “dear CWRU and CCLCM admissions committee...”

You can address it generically as to the Admissions Committee as I'm sure you'll be discussing your specific interests about each track within your letter.
 
I was complete Aug 25th, is if now considered a bad thing if I have not heard back?

No because they are giving out rejections. You’ll notice people complete mid-July just received rejections. You’re still in the running till they tell you you’re not. No news = good news when they’re giving out rejections. I finished my secondary 7/31 but was complete 8/25 with CASPER. Also haven’t heard anything.
 
II!! Super excited, this is my 3rd one this cycle. Surprised because my app is not research focused, I did a lot of clinical and non-clinical volunteering. 515 and 3.8, sGPA 3.5

When were you complete?
 
Sorry if this has already been asked, but how did you guys approach thank you letters? Did you directly email the interviewers? I'm not sure what the school policy is...

They send a follow-up email after the interview day with the emails of your interviews so that you can send them thank you notes directly
 
Does anyone know how letters of intent/interest work? I interviewed on october 14 and i’ve interviewed at a few other schools as well but Case is far and away my top choice. Should I write an update letter before the decisions come out for that interview date?

Similar date here and I sent an update letter after my CCLCM interview addressing both the admissions committees and also snuck in some love for them as well. Who knows if it served me positively or negatively but I suppose I'll find out near thanksgiving
 
Complete early August and silence. Anyone knows what to expect? :/
 
Has there been any info on when the next round of admissions decisions could be released?
 
Very soon I imagine. During my interview I was told the admissions team was meeting this week.
They’ve already met for October interviews, that round of decisions is being lumped with this months to be released near thanksgiving
 
I have an interview coming up here soon, and I wanted to know is it recommended to do the IQ session before or after the interview? Does it matter?
 
Just got the email to join a zoom call this week, they said 'Based on some recent events, we wanted to bring you together to discuss a few new updates'. Does this typically mean waitlisted? T.T My heart's in my throat.

Got it as well, I dont think it means that. They would just outright say that. Case has always seemed pretty straightforward

Is this pre or post-interview?
 
Got the email too, post interview. Didn't a couple people had a very similar email recently and they all got WLd?
 
Post. Also thinking of gathering a group of waitlisted students to break the news collectively doesn't make sense haha
Ahh I see. I agree that it would seem strange, although I feel like I remember someone saying that that had happened in this thread like a month ago
