Congrats!! When are your stats?
My Lizzy M was a 63.5, feel free to pm!
Yes! Complete 10/4 and II 12/9
They're a very mission-driven school so I think that's probably their first priority. From First Friday talks they like high stats but are very forgiving of low stats if someone fits their mission.

There have been some 515+ already accepted. They said there is no method to their madness so there’s that!
Okay. Stats? If you don’t mind sharing
quick question, does everyone who submits an application get the email about application being reviewed and if you have any pre-reqs not completed yet, send it to them?
Complete 8/25. 3.6/507

do you mind sharing when you received your II?
Would you mind sharing your stats?

Would sending a pre-II letter of interest make a difference?
You miss 100% of the opportunities you don’t take. Go get the MD🧡
Relax, be yourself, and have some questions prepared! You’ll do great 🙂
Has the school started rejecting pre-II or is it more of a “do it at the end” sort of institution?
I would love the opportunity to interview here, but I haven’t heard anything for awhile now.

Hi! I am interviewing here on Tuesday but didn't receive the zoom link yet. Anybody in the same boat? In their confirmation email they said I will receive it the week of the interview but I know that tomorrow is a federal holiday and they will be closed!
I got a response about it being added to my app a few hours after my email was sent.
Hi! I haven't received a link either, and I am also interviewing on Tuesday. Perhaps they'll send it sometime this evening!

If it was two weeks ago, there may have been a slight delay due to the holidays. I called and spoke to Ms. Hicks and she added it to my file over the phone and sent me a confirmation email shortly after.

ah i sent an update letter on January 8th and then sent a follow up email today and still nothing - i guess i should call tomorrow right? I'm worried today would be extra since i followed up via email

Don’t follow up right now. My own school (I’m taking classes through a medical school right now) is entirely TOO FAR BEHIND. It’s so bad that the registrar’s phone is busy. They will get to it. I sent a follow up to Howard too but now I feel crappy after seeing how behind my school is.
So I actually called right at 9am when their office opens to admissions calls. I sent my email last week but saw on this thread that oftentimes, our emails go to spam. When I called, I figured that's what happened because it took her quite a long time to find my email. Shortly after, I received an email that they received my letter and it has been added to my file. So I would definitely say call early tomorrow

Did you call today?

I sent a letter of interest 2 days ago. When is the appropriate time to call them and ask if they got it?
Yes I called today because I sent my letter on 1/11 and didn't get a confirmation email. After I called though, I got the email like 2 minutes later
Might as well do it tomorrow or sometime this week. The faster they update your file, the faster they may do another review of your app and send an II
I called yesterday and they said they would send a confirmation email yesterday but they didn’t. Should I call again today ?
It can’t hurt. I called this morning and 10minutes later she sent my confirmation email.

I called the admissions phone number, linked here. It was my third day in a row calling; got put through and sorted everything out within minutes! Sounds like they are really doing their best to field everyone's requests, gotta love it.
Yeah when my spoke to them, she said there was a backlog so I think they really are behind/struggling.
What where your stats if you don’t mind
