My application was verified on 7/15 and my MCAT score was released on 8/20 and I still haven’t received a secondary. Is this typical and should I reach out to ask them?

Definitely reach out. This happened to me too, so it's not uncommon, but you should check in with them.

What did they tell you when you reached out?

I interviewed at UIW about 2 weeks ago, but they didn't have my MCAT score. I received a message from AACOMAS last night notifying me that they now have my score. Should I email UIW admissions to let them know, or should I give it a few days to resolve on their own? I'm worried that I am less likely to be accepted due to my missing score.

Edit: Just received an email saying that I was put on the waitlist. I think I am going to wait it out.

It's my second one actually!! Still pretty stunned by it though because now I have options....which is crazy concept to wrap my head around for a third-time applicant like me haha.

So thrilling to see that you were persistent and stuck with your aspirations! I feel like so many people get defeated after being rejected the 1st time and don't reapply. I applied twice and have been accepted to UIWSOM as well with multiple upcoming interviews! CONGRATS!!!

Waitlist :/. Interviewed on 09/18. I'm down but I'm not out yet and still got 3 other II. Still would've been nice to get my first A.

I'm right there with you! I also interviewed 9/18. It's still early, and a waitlist is better than a rejection! 🙂 Sounds like your chances of getting in somewhere are quite good

Not to be neurotic, but I was complete 8/30, has anybody received an II that was complete around the same time or after?

[DOstudent20]

Just got the on hold email. Complete 8/18 IS

is that the " Due to the limited number of space at each interview session we are currently unable to extend an invitation" email or are you talking about a different one?

 

[sfa59]

Does anyone know how the interview waitlist works and how many students typically get off the waitlist? Thanks in advance!

 

[docrock7]

I received the same email today :/

 

[ChocolateChip>Oreos]

Those who got a hold/and and interview mind sharing stats?

 

[1ightningz]

Those who got a hold/and and interview mind sharing stats?

505/3.6 IS, T20 undergrad so was quite surprised given all things considered. Probably lack of clinical hours but oh well

 

[Thephrenicnerve35]

II today OOS

 

[DOingthething]

Also got an interview hold today, it feels like a soft rejection honestly

I read last year's thread and a couple of students got off the interview waitlist from january to march. There's still hope!

 

[clumsy.md]

Accepted my offer of admission, anyone else done so yet?

Congrats! I haven't yet. They said we could wait til December to accept and pay.

Was just accepted off the waitlist! I was only on the waitlist for 1 week. I strongly believe that this was due the fact that they didn't have my official MCAT score when adcom made their initial decision.

 

[wo168]

Just got put on the post-interview waitlist, does anyone know if there's usually a lot of movement off this waitlist?

 

[TokenJewGuy]

Just got an acceptance email. I interviewed 9/28. First acceptance so I'm ecstatic. If anyone has any questions feel free to dm me. Good luck to you all!!

 

[Vonyx]

Accepted this morning! I'm so excited, this was my #1 school and first acceptance! I'm going to be a doctor! (I interviewed 9/21)

 

[MotherofDragonflies]

Late in the game but just decided to throw my hat in the ring with this school. I've heard good things so let's give it a shot. Congrats to everyone with an acceptance already!

When I interviewed, they mentioned that they expect a lot more movement off the waitlist this year

Congrats! For those of you that got an invite, how far are they right now? November dates?

[bluemask12]

I interviewed today and I really enjoyed it! This would be an awesome school to attend!

 

[TheSaltyDoc]

Accepted on 9 Oct! Interviewed on 28 Sep. I was so excited because it's my first A of the cycle.

 

[science789]

quick question - does this school have a minimum mcat cut off?
