I sent a letter of interest plus updates I had!

 

[summitok]

I just received an email titled "FSM Financial Aid Information" that is addressed to accepted students, but I haven't been notified of an acceptance (I also didn't receive a deferral email or any other communication at all). Is anyone else in this situation?

What does your portal say? Does it still say under review?

 

[concernedduck]

Any admitted students not see northwestern under their AMCAS "Choose your medical school" tab? I might be wrong, but I think we should be able to see all of our accepted schools here?

 

[summitok]

It says "Interviewed, Final Decision Pending"

I don't think the "choose your medical school" tool goes live until February.

 

[katty213]

It says "Interviewed, Final Decision Pending"

That's odd, when did you interview? Maybe worth reaching out to admissions to clarify?

 

[MDToBe1!]

I don't think the "choose your medical school" tool goes live until February.

Yeah, it doesn't go live until February/March.

 

[concernedduck]

Yeah, it doesn't go live until February/March.

Ooh ok thanks!

As a follow-up, it turns out I was accepted but a technical glitch prevented my acceptance email from being sent out. Hi team!!! SO excited to be part of this class!!!!!!

This is actually a fun story to remember! Congrats!

 

[mdpls!]

When would be a good time to send in a letter of intent? This is my top choice and I got deferred

 

[deleted1075607]

still no ii 🙁

 

[RNARNARNA]

When would be a good time to send in a letter of intent? This is my top choice and I got deferred

Maybe around March/April or whenever waitlist movement typically occurs?

II just now, was not expecting at all (esp on a Sunday) 😀

Awesome, thank you! 🙂

 

[icecreamluvr123]

II this evening as well! shocked but excited 🙂 i was complete 8/10 and sent an update letter about 2 weeks ago!

 

[Lifeblood_20]

Does Northwestern accept update letters? I did not see the option to upload any documents on the application portal. Or did people send them via email to admissions directly?

 

[Lifeblood_20]

I sent mine via email. From their website-- "If applicants would like to notify us of an update to their application, we ask that they send it to the main [email protected] email address, in the body of the email or as a PDF attachment. Please include your AAMC ID number in the update letter."

Awesome, thank you!

Hi everyone! I have my interview this Friday and was just wondering about general feedback from those of you who interviewed? Was it stressful or pretty relaxed/conversational? Thanks!

 

[cockadoodledothecowsaymoo]

Complete since late July...sent update in November...silence 😭

Pretty relaxed! Don't stress too much!

 

[deleted1081388]

Pretty relaxed! Don't stress too much!

+1 to this! All of my interviewers were very very kind and supportive and I didn’t have any stress questions at all. I felt it was one of my more relaxed interviews this season.

 

[Golden Eagle 59]

II couple of days ago, complete 8/15 LM 76

 

[Baloo123]

Have any international students gotten an II here yet?

Very relaxed and conversational. I wouldn't worry. I definitely didn't have any unexpected questions and I felt like my interviewers really read my app and were interested in the things I've done.

 

[czarcazm]

Have any international students gotten an II here yet?

Nope, just heard back from a couple of schools this week after ~5 months of silence from everyone (don't worry its all Rs ~pain~) so I assume they just started looking at us maybe?

 

[Honey_BeeMD]

Does anyone know if this school’s MSTP accepts update letters?

 

[aPENSTAi]

Any August pre II-R gone out yet. Since it has been so long I’m expecting one soon.

 

[fianchetto_]

Does anyone know if this school’s MSTP accepts update letters?

yup. i sent them one a couple weeks back.

 

[boulderdoc1]

Any August pre II-R gone out yet. Since it has been so long I’m expecting one soon.

+1. Fully expecting the R complete early August. Have they even sent Rs yet?

 

[Golden Eagle 59]

Do they send you the interview check in link or am I too dumb to find it?

 

[probablyhungry99]

Do they send you the interview check in link or am I too dumb to find it?

For me, it was in the final confirmation email (which they sent last Wednesday for an interview tomorrow).

 

[justagirl213]

Any November apps get IIs or R’s yet?

 

[deleted785419]

Did anyone get that email about the prospective applicants listserv ?

 

[MDAesthetic]

+1. Fully expecting the R complete early August. Have they even sent Rs yet?

+1 did they send pre-II R's

 

[sammyboy123]

Is NU a silent R school? I have been complete since late july/early august I think and still nothing. Pretty sure it's an R since their website says they review apps until Dec.

 

[deleted1075607]

You don't hand over that II, your football team gets smacked!!

 

[Gopher16]

II today! Complete mid October

 

[Tall_Premed23]

Hey can anyone who has gotten a recent II say how many dates were available to schedule? I see on their website that they stop interviewing after February and want to know if I should officially lose hope or not lol.

Hey Everyone, For FAFSA do you need your parents tax information or is only your information enough?

 

[MediocreClimber]

Hey Everyone, For FAFSA do you need your parents tax information or is only your information enough?

Most medical schools require it I believe. I know northwestern asks for it in their financial aid form they make you fill out separately too.

 

[deleted1062149]

Hey Everyone, For FAFSA do you need your parents tax information or is only your information enough?

both for first year for FAFSA and NW app, then from then on you only need yours per NW website (on their fin aid app)

 

[Mr.Blackdoc.5]

II received today. Completed app first week of November. Scheduling second and third weeks of Jan.
