If I recall correctly it took me until Monday or Tuesday after getting the call on a Thursday! You’ll get it!

 

[Premedstudent2020]

I interviewed 1/12 and still haven’t heard anything yet. Super anxious and nervous. It’s all I can think about 😕. Hoping to hear something today. Has anyone who interviewed the 01/12 or after heard back yet?

1/14 interview and I also have not heard back. I’m with you

 

[megfer]

I interviewed 1/5 and haven’t heard, being more patient than I have ever been though. No news is also good news!

Interviewed 1/7 same boat, the silence is eating me alive lol

Are there any accepted student GroupMes rn?

Yes there is one, I am not the owner but I think I can add people; message me your number and name and I'll add you.

 

[studentdoctor111111111111]

Does anyone know when the committee meets next?

 

[Hello_There_117]

Probably February 4-5. Hoping for more October active holds to hear back and trying to keep the faith although it's been hard.

I'm sending good vibes your way! I bet you'll hear something soon! I've only been on hold for a few weeks but completely agree that it can be very discouraging. Here's to hoping this committee meeting will bring everyone some good news!

 

[BaddingBreak]

Just got an email from the admin addressed "Dear most patient Quillen applicant." Outlined that they understand it's been radio silence for several months since submission of the secondary application, and that this is because they have been processing an unprecedented amount of apps. Trying to give each application a sufficient amount of time in review, and that they expect to be offering positions in the class "on a continuing basis well into the summer."

 

[mTOR1]

Yeah I feel like that email was a classy move.

 

[Hello_There_117]

I wonder if that applies only to those who haven't interviewed yet or if there is a possibility that it also affects those on active hold. At any rate at least there's still hope!

The language of the email was more geared toward those of us who haven't interviewed yet ie. "been several months of silence since secondary submission," preliminary reviews taking longer than usual etc.

 

[Premedstudent2020]

Has anyone who interviewed on or after 01/12 heard anything back? Was wondering if committee has met yet. Also for those who received rejections was it sent be mail after the interview or email?

 

[futuremediguess]

Current student at Quillen, if you all have any questions about the school or this crazy process-- feel free to reach out!

I recently interviewed and know the next two review dates are 2/4 and 2/18. As for the other question, I don’t know!

 

[Anaz96]

Question regarding the statistics of current accepted students to acceptances offered to date. Based on last years numbers, we should probably expect to see about 50 more acceptances offered in the cycle since 1/13? This is just an estimate of course, we wont truly know until around April when people start committing to schools.

I do know that there have been acceptances after this most recent update on their website so the number may be a little lower as of the 21st. They haven’t appeared to update the numbers since that committee meeting.

 

[hfiso]

So it appears they don’t have many acceptances left to give out? Kinda scary

 

[Hello_There_117]

That is kind of scary, but they used to give out 150 acceptances in the past (other than last year) so maybe it will go back to that.

 

[megfer]

I wish us all the luck/prayers/good vibes today as we await today’s committee decisions. I hope all of our info was correct that they will be meeting again today.

 

[Helos_to_hospitals]

II yesterday afternoon. Interview out in April. Good luck to those waiting on decisions!

They definitely are. I know I had the most recent interview logged on here. They said 2/4 and 2/18 for 1/28

I’m still waiting to hear back from my 1/5 interview. I was informed they weren’t able to get to mine during the 1/21 meeting and that I would hear back early February so I guess this is it! Or in two weeks. 🤞🏼

Fingers crossed for the both of us to hear back today. I hundred percent know that my file is highly unlikely to be reviewed, but I had a small glimmer of hope lol.

 

[Anaz96]

Interviewed 1/7 still waiting to hear back, solidarity with my comrades through the fire and silence. Godspeed everyone!

Do they usually send As on the days they meet or day after?

 

[Hello_There_117]

Active hold from mid-October and hoping for good news but I'm ready to be hurt again .

 

[bleep_bloop]

Do they usually send As on the days they meet or day after?

I scoured this thread and it looks like the majority (obv selection bias) are day of. I'm curious since there are so many early Jan interviewers who haven't heard back if late Jan should even expect a review today...

 

[studentdoctor111111111111]

I just looked back on the thread as well and it seems like they normally start calling about acceptances around 3pm the day of the committee meeting...

 

[megfer]

I just received a call. Accepted! Stephanie Cole called me and was so kind even when I started crying.

I’m in state. 6 years in the military (no longer). Husband is military. 508 MCAT. 3.85s, 3.95ao, 3.90. Worked clinically past two years at a treatment center. No research. Non traditional student, on my 4th gap year.

I’m so proud of you. Congratulations.

 

[megfer]

Thank you, that’s very kind of you. I hope you all the best. Don’t give up! If you didn’t hear back today, then you more than likely will the next meeting date. People who interviewed after me heard back on 1/21 and I hadn’t heard a thing. Anthony was patient enough to let me know it would be the next meeting and that they don’t always get to everyone the first meeting after your interview 😅 I was a nervous wreck on 1/21 when I hadn’t heard anything and people after me had. I can confirm they called me at 3:05 CST day of the committee meeting. Best of luck to all those waiting!

I’m so proud of you. Congratulations.

 

[studentdoctor111111111111]

It doesn't seem like many people received acceptances yesterday, so do we think there is a chance they make more phone calls today?

 

[Premedstudent2020]

I can’t believe it! I’m a reapplicant and after everything that I went through this past year I kinda gave up. But thankfully I received my acceptance yesterday. I interviewed 01/12. MCAT 502, GPA 3.97, sGPA 3.5.

Just received an email that I was placed on “active hold” after my interview. Anyone accepted from this “hold” state? Kinda bummed at this point

IS? Mine was OOS active hold in January. Haven't heard anything after.

 

[Hello_There_117]

Some have, some haven't. I have been on active hold since the end of October and at this point, I am seriously wondering if I will hear something or if I will just be rejected at the end of the cycle. I kind of wish it was a ranked waitlist rather than just a hold.

 

[hfiso]

Yes IS

 

[hope_med_]

does anyone know when the next committee meeting is

[revaew]

OOS II now, scheduled for April 7th

Are the only available interview dates in April? Kind of worrying since it seems like they don’t interview too late into the cycle. Good luck with your II!

I didn’t get to choose. The email just said your interview is this day and time.

Oh okay, thanks for clarifying!

 

[Bem7c]

You can be put on a list to take new interview openings because people will withdraw. I went from a March interview to Jan 28
