I interviewed late october. I had lowkey been silently freaking out all of today and was starting to think I wasn’t going to get the call. Hope you hear good news soon too!

[groomba]

congrats everyone that got the As today!!! are we thinking that’s it or do they usually spread out this final wave over a few days?

Is it usually the faculty interviewer that calls? I just assumed a staff member does

I choose not to believe this. Sorry!

 

[smokedsalmon]

Thanks <3. I interviewed in January.

anyone accepted today have updated info on their scholarship schedule?

 

[Rising_Sagicorn]

anyone accepted today have updated info on their scholarship schedule?

Someone mentioned that Dr. Carter said that FA stuff would be out end of march

 

[mlua1811]

Someone mentioned that Dr. Carter said that FA stuff would be out end of march

Just to clarify- she said by the end of March so could be before then!

It was my faculty interviewer that called me!

 

[Mr.Blackdoc.5]

my memory isn’t the best so I could definitely be wrong about this, but when I spoke with my interviewer earlier i thought they said scholarship stuff would be sent next week.

 

[spikebee]

Did anyone get a call from Dr. Sharp-Keller today?

 

[abcsunshine]

Anyone get a call from Walter Parrish or Dr. Wolfson today?

 

[MDToBe1!]

Adding to the list of questions, has anyone who interviewed in February heard back yet? 😭

 

[ducks_are _the best]

Did anyone get a call from Dr. Sharp-Keller today?

[ImmunoFanatic]

Has anyone who's been on post-II hold for the MSTP heard back at all?

 

[feliznavidad]

[mdpls!]

Anyone who interviewed with dr roser Jones and get a call??

not yet idt

 

[Lifeblood_20]

Hoping that there’s more good news today! Staying positive! 🤞

 

[spikebee]

Soo do we think acceptances are done? :/

 

[Rising_Sagicorn]

Soo do we think acceptances are done? :/

Alot of people did get As yesterday so who knows...last year, they immediately sent WL/R decisions after it seemed like they were done with acceptances and to my knowledge, that did not happen yesterday.

 

[MDToBe1!]

Soo do we think acceptances are done? :/

I’m choosing not to believe this 😭😔

 

[prosmedstudent]

I mean I'm not going to pretend there are a ton of acceptances left, but I do think there should be a good amount left considering a lot of us have not heard back from our primary interviewers and acceptances are usually held across a two day period anyway. I believe I read somewhere that the committee meets every Thursday, so they might be finishing up decisions and might let us know tomorrow or Monday for either good or bad news? Its super hard to not obsess over this, but we just have to be patient and positive!

 

[mdphd_hopeful_7353]

Is a hold different from deferral? I got a deferral but no update yet.

I think they’re the same, but same here 😞

 

[anotherhotpremed]

Anyone who interviewed with dr roser Jones and get a call??

Wait she had "Dr" in her title??? I thought she had a MS. I didn't address her as "Dr"

[ToBeMD2025]

No, she does not have a Dr. in her title.

 

[feliznavidad]

No, she does not have a Dr. in her title.

[abcsunshine]

Dang this is kinda torturous :'(

 

[anotherhotpremed]

Dang this is kinda torturous :'(

Yeah, I didn't feel good after my interview. I just want to get the rejection and move on

 

[helpme292]

Got the ringer on my phone on high volume for good news, checking my email for bad news and SDN is a wild card😂

 

[apoptotic_bleb]

Yeah, I didn't feel good after my interview. I just want to get the rejection and move on

[santanalopez93]

[santanalopez93]

Anyone get a call from Dr. Vela?

 

[anotherhotpremed]

"Acceptance notification will begin in November 2020 and will continue through the first week of March in 2021"

so any chance this drags on for a whole other week?

that will suckkkkkk

 

[Rising_Sagicorn]

Would love to call but not trying to jinx myself

 

[holdingouthopemd]

This UChicago Biomedical Informatics email just made me throw my phone by accident

 

[Vikingbear16]

This UChicago Biomedical Informatics email just made me throw my phone by accident

YUP I'M TOO ON EDGE

 

[FishTacoFriday]

Do people think the Biomedical Informatics email is a bad sign? Like why would they send this if you are planning to accept you?

 

[eelsauce]

Okay I'm not one for conspiracies but what if those emails imply something
