I double-checked my spam and all folders on Gmail as well as the portal. No updates on either end. Maybe I'll receive an email sometime next week. You can shoot me a dm next week reminding me and I'll let you know if they updated the portal/emailed me yet. Otherwise, I would email admissions about your change in address. Best of luck to you
Yup, I got deferred last week.
nope!
This sounds obviously wrong and they probably added you to a list by mistake. I'd reach out.
It was indeed an error. Gotta love it. This is after this they put me on hold for all of 4 days before sending me an interview invite earlier in the cycle. Why are they trying to kill me lol
Apparently not 🙁
did your portal change at all?
Can you send the link?
www.facebook.com
Did your portal change too?
I’m curious, are they sending this last batch of A/WL/R all through snail mail or do they call the A’s? So if you don’t get a call, but see the letter, you basically know the answer?
I believe last year that rejections were only mailed. Acceptances, deferments, and waitlists were all emailed. It could be different this year, but I know for sure A's are emailed and then a USPS letter shows up a few days later, post-marked for the day the email was sent.
thanks, then I’m hoping for no mail!
Ah got it that definitely makes it scarier haha
when did you interview?
If I remember correctly, the person who led info session kinda thing during the interview day mentioned that LOI is accepted and possibly can help (he worded it carefully but dont remember the exact words). Idk how geisinger functions overall, but they do accept it and receive it neutrally/positively-ish
They mentioned they accept letters of interest and update letters. I'd assume the same goes for letters of intent
On the portal it says you can only submit 2 letters to add to your application. It also lists the email you can send them to. I just sent an update letter in and got a confirmation email that said it was added to my file and that I can send one more. Hope this is helpful!
Is this coming week some sort of last week for deferred applicants?
In a way it might be. I think there might be one decision day left before those not accepted from deferred will go to alternate list/waitlist.
I haven't heard anything back from 1/27 either so I am hoping they just haven't gotten to us yet...
I only asked because last year on March 5th, some deferred applicants got accepted. So really hoping that there is some deferred movement.
I sent a LOI! Whatever it takes to show how passionate I am of the program lol. This is my top choice
+1 I just sent one in last week ~ figured it couldn’t hurt 🤷🏼♀️
but are the rejections for those who interviewed or those that were on the deferred list?
One person posted earlier they went from deferred to rejected.
Yes it does count from what i remember, i think they mentioned that during the interview.
