2020-2021 SUNY - Upstate

[elrm257]

So I just got off the phone with the admissions office. They clarified that applicants who are on hold do not have the "Application Status" line. Hope this helps anyone who was similarly confused!

EDIT: Also just as I said that, my application updated to include the Application Status line (it says "Hold").

+1 for the hold status, it was just added to my application

 

[lalano1230]

Received hold and apology letter last week.
Just checked my status now and I discovered an II .. Ill take it..

Thanks you for sharing, so hold is a soft R?
[/QUOTE]

I've seen others get II after hold in January..so I am not too sure...

 

[elrm257]

Also, do they put everyone on hold before a rejection or are some people rejected outright?

^ I have the same question. Does anyone know this?

 

[Anon_medgirl]

IS , with their glitchy system roughly completed mid-august.

and thank you everyone for the support! Got WL from three schools last year and it was not fun haha

Thanks for sharing! Good luck!

Is anyone else here not on hold & doesn't have an II?

My status is still complete, no hold email, no II invite. I feel like I'm just floating in limbo right now

I'm also a free-floating body in a sea of uncertainty. But I was only complete 9/28 so who knows if they even know who I am yet.

My status is also complete. I think that means that our applications have not been reviewed yet.

It's weird because I was complete 9/11 but ppl who submitted later have gotten holds already. I guess Upstate doesn't review apps in order either.

 

[Mayor_Chano]

Saw all the commotion on here and decided to check my banner. Got the original hold email, then the error one, and now an II.

IS, ORM, non-trad, 511/3.93 (124 CARS)

Feeling blessed!! Talk about an emotional roller coaster...

 

[kbsingh2499]

I checked my portal just now. It says I got selected for an interview. Earliest date was in January??? Anyone else? I was complete 9/19

what was ur earliest date? Mine says in January

 

[PerfectMD]

Pre-II R, no hold, complete 9/27

Found this from last year. I suppose they do reject ppl outright. Gluck to everyone

II today! Previously on hold in October

But hold is not entirely a soft R

Pre-II R, complete sept, on hold late sept, IS, LM 67. Sent an update in Dec.

But for most people it is


All last year info - Occured from December to January

 

[Mayor_Chano]

what was ur earliest date? Mine says in January

Yeah the earliest was 01/13. I signed up for 01/20 cause 13 is an unlucky number lmao

 

[kbsingh2499]

lmaooooo smart

 

[McDr3amy]

Have you had an interview?

yes i had an interview

 

[dr.asp]

yes i had an interview

I also had an II and mine says ready for committee, wonder if there is any difference between the two indications.

 

[YoungBuck1414]

Just to add a data point, I interviewed last month and mine says ready for committee as well. Not sure what it's supposed to say but they said they send out admissions decisions starting the 15th so good luck yall

 

[McDr3amy]

yeah i have no idea what "decision made" means LOL but if we didn't receive hold emails i think that's a good sign! good luck to you all

 

[annperkins]

II!!! Earliest date I could get was January though :/

 

[Anon_medgirl]

II!!! Earliest date I could get was January though :/

Congrats! Do you mind sharing your stats, IS/OOS, complete date?

 

[annperkins]

Congrats! Do you mind sharing your stats, IS/OOS, complete date?

OOS, LM 73, complete early August

 

[depaysement]

Received the hold email last week then checked the portal and there was an II! Earliest date I saw was also Jan

 

[Futuredrmd]

yeah i have no idea what "decision made" means LOL but if we didn't receive hold emails i think that's a good sign! good luck to you all

just wondering, what did your decision made email say? I just want to see if it’s different than the ready for committee email.

 

[pinklovemed]

Should I give up all hope with my hold.

 

[Julatteluver]

Should I give up all hope with my hold.

I’m going to treat it as R :’(

 

[sillyusername]

No hold, no interview gang. Wonder if that’s just a straight R? Complete early August.

 

[elrm257]

Should I give up all hope with my hold.

admissions told me it when they don't wanna reject someone but also not ready to give an II. They said quite a few get off the list each year

 

[McDr3amy]

its not an email its on the portal

 

[Persaudirabia]

II on 10/5, complete 8/14, IS, WDARS C, LM 75, earliest interview date was 1/13 which I signed up for. Got my hold email a few hours after the apology email, status on portal says Interview

 

[elrm257]

Does SUNY Upstate send rejections before II? or is that only after hold. I'm trying to figure out if they just put everyone they don't wanna give II to on hold or only some people

 

[Pinocytosis]

Yes, a pre-II rejection is a possible option.

 

[Negihamster]

Where can I find the Zoom link for the interview? Can’t seem to find it on the portal.

 

[PerfectMD]

Anyone complete before August 26th not get put on hold?

 

[sillyusername]

Anyone complete before August 26th not get put on hold?

Me.

 

[prettychill]

i received an II on 9/12. completed secondary 9/1 so pretty happy with how quickly i received the II. IS. ORM. 3.7/3.68. 503/522. Earliest date was 12/1 for me

 

[egj]

Hello. Has anyone received any MD/PhD interviews?

 

[dr.asp]

Application portal just changed to "Decision Made" status, hopefully that's a good thing lol.

 

[Futuredrmd]

+1

 

[Anon_medgirl]

Put on hold (re-review after Dec 1st). Complete 9/30. Have any pre-II R's been sent out? PSA- I did not receive an email stating I was on hold. I saw it when I checked my portal.

Did your "Application Status" change to "Hold"?

 

[Anon_medgirl]

Did your "Application Status" change to "Hold"?

Yes

 

[I-cry-everyday]

They emailed me saying I was supposed to receive the HOLD email. Its been over a week and my status has not changed on my portal

 

[Anon_medgirl]

That's weird because my status in the portal says on hold, but I never received an email stating that I am on hole.

 

[yougurty]

Just wondering if your status changed on the portal would you receive an email notification?

 

[Anon_medgirl]

My status changed, but I did not receive an email.

 

[jokerbanepenguin1]

Does anyone know whether the virtual meet and greet has bearing on admissions decisions or is it just something extra for applicant?

 

[dr.asp]

Does anyone who interviewed some time ago not have "Decision Made" on their portal? As in at least a few weeks ago?

 

[Archemia]

Welp, I still have no email, no II, portal says "complete" (on 9/11). The wait is killing me

 

[inked.cuse]

That's weird because my status in the portal says on hold, but I never received an email stating that I am on hole.

Where are you seeing a status update ?

 

[dr.asp]

i have the same question lol my app just says complete...

There is a small section on the portal when you log in under the Application Summary table says "Application Status"
