I was complete mid October and interviewed last month.
i interviewed 11/11 and got deferred yesterday
+1 - Id love to go to school in Philly but hope is fading.
US News says ~55% (incl. those off the waitlist)
+2 going to school in Philly would be amazing but I am not optimistic rn
I interviewed on 11/18 (have not heard anything since...) - during the little slideshow presentation about the school and whatnot, there was a slide with some of the application/interview/acceptance numbers. From memory, the slide showed that they interviewed around 1500 people and accepted around half of those. The admissions officer hosting us made it a point to bring this to our attention, and then smiled coyly.
I also remember them saying they received an unusually high number of applications this year so they were interviewing a few hundred more than usual
I interviewed in December and they said to expect a decision in 8 weeks, but that they will be adding more decision dates past the 19th. I presume they’ll have a couple in March/April, but would love to know if they have specific dates set so we’re not all refreshing our emails constantly after the 19th, but have specific days that we know of to constantly refresh :/
I’m sitting on 12+ weeks post-interview.
yes! I think they interview pretty late into April
You and me both!
If they interview until April then we still have a chance.
Same! They interview pretty late, so I am hoping for the best
also hoping for an II from here! when were all your applications marked complete?
9/29/20. OOS but strong ties to the Philly area and a lot of experience working with the underserved so hopefully they think it is a good fit too 🤞🏻. You?
nice wishing you the best! and not til 10/27 🙁 but I'm a career changer and I read that they like non traditional students so hoping for the best!
Complete 8/19
wishing you the best! it is okay, I feel like I should have submitted earlier too! I tell myself if they like you then they like you no matter what. I am nontrad too, they do like nontrads!
I am so sorry! Best of luck to you with the rest of your applications. Were you ever on hold?
Wondering the same
nope, no updates
trying to decide if their financial planner would be able to answer this????
Im alumni now but i would receive random scholarships in the middle of the academic year. So it seems rolling.
CONGRATS! Mind sharing your complete date 🙂
that is good to know, thank you!
And i’ll add that i was middle of my class at best or lower quartile during preclinical years.. and i was still awarded stuff
Of course! I completed by July 31 2020 I believe.
were you awarded drexel aid or merit scholarships? that would be amazing if they truly give out that much aid
Congrats! Did you send any updates or a Letter of Interest? Were you ever on hold?
I did send an update letter after new years in 2021 in the first week of jan since I started a new job after I submitted my secondary. I was never on hold. It was just no news until today!
There’s no essay! They may have done that in previous years
Great! Thank you so much!!
me too. very disappointing!!!
It’s ok. Thanks.Good luck!
