Anyone else getting an error message when trying to log into the portal?
 
Did anyone else interview in November or October) and not get an interview decision? I’m starting to worry
 
Not sure, but for what it is worth, it seems that the better the school is, the fewer As, which makes sense; If you get an A from Yale, you are going there. So, certainly more than 500; I would imagine closer to 750, but I'm just throwing that number into the ether basically.
If you look at the spreadsheet compiled by TheDataKing (in his signature at top of thread) you'll see MSU accepts roughly 260 people for a class of ~190.

Sooo, nowhere close to 750 hahah. I can't imagine any school accepts that many.
 
Has anyone submitted the background check and gotten confirmation that it was received by admissions?
 
Did anyone who applied lmu hear anything at all from them?
 
Just received the full accept on the portal and via email post background check! Congrats to all the rest of you who received acceptances!

To those who were rejected or placed on the alternate list, don’t give up on your dreams. About a year ago I received my final rejection concluding my application cycle with zero interview invites. I remember how disappointed and crushed I was, and how these feeling were magnified every time someone asked how applying was going or if I had heard anything yet. I remember how difficult it was to want something so badly, and the feelings of defeat that accompanied rejection after rejection after rejection. So as someone who has been there, I emphasize with you, and I just want to remind you to not give up on yourself. If you plan on reapplying the next cycle, start doing everything in your power now to continue making improvements to your application, and make sure to check out MSU’s self reflection guide. It may be hard to look ahead, but so much can change in a year’s time — this school went from being my first medical school rejection to my first interview invite to my first acceptance. Do not give up hope and keep on chasing your dreams. Best of luck to you all. 🙏🏻
 
For those waiting for confirmation: my full acceptance was finally offered after submitting my background check! It took a few weeks, so hold tight!
 
Does anyone know if we are required to put parental information on our FAFSA for CHM? 🙂 Thanks!
 
Additional data point: placed on hold at some point during the last month. I never received an email about it, noticed the update in my portal, but there is no time/date stamp. Complete mid July, IS, LM 75.
