I interviewed 1/14 and got the tabs about 20 mins ago.
This resets at 6pm they probably voted on u today
yeah apparently. I'm in the same boat as you
Dont do this
how would i express interest without seeming like I'm begging for an acceptance lol 😢 also I've been on hold since 11/5, should i not get my hopes up for march 1?
Hi there, I'm an M1 at VCU who got in off the waitlist last year after getting a February interview! VCU is very systematic from what I understand, and just try and ride it out. I got the hold on the last day to get an acceptance, March 1, and got onto the waitlist March 15, and then got in the last week of May. There is hope until May/June and even perhaps July. In hindsight, I feel like waitlists are not death sentences whatsoever, they're an administrative necessity! Just tell yourself you will be making your final decision regarding which school you go to in late May or June, and try and enjoy your life between now and then. That's what I wish someone had told me.
Pre-II?
I didn't see any tabs but then got an email at 6:09 PM that there was an update in my portal. The tabs were there after that
Post-II. Interviewed on Wednesday
uhm i haven't been offered an interview here yet but i have had friends who have. you do know they send that status to everyone they dont reject post interview right? it just means they reviewed your file finally and you are going to have to wait to hear back on a decision day, getting that isnt a bad thing.
Congrats! What was your portal message on 12/16?
I interviewed 10/22 as well. There was no change at all to my portal on the 12/16 admittance date, tabs appeared on the following acceptance date. I think there is definitely still atleast 1/4 of the class size needing to be filled not accounting for later withdraws.
Thanks. I’m in a similar boat, interviewed 12/16 and had no change on my portal yestedsah. It just says that I’m waiting for committee review
I was able to log in just a few min ago.
Have you already received an acceptance for the regular MD program and are waiting to hear from the fmSTAT?
Yeah, I have. My understanding is that once your accepted, they are able to make an offer.
Congrats!! How long ago did you receive your acceptance if you don’t mind me asking?
Thanks! Np, Yesterday evening.
When was your interview? Sorry for asking too many questions.
I just saw your previous post that you interviewed on the 14th. Congrats!!!
Thanks! Np. Feel free to PM me.
VCU has had its interviews scheduled since about October. As people withdraw, invites have been sent out. There are probably a few left to be sent but not many.
I’m not familiar with how it works. Just assumed hold was equivalent to waitlist
Yeah once again, im not the most educated person on vcu but the hold is a generic message telling you that they liked you and that you are eligible to recieve an acceptance on a decision day. not a waitlist thing at all.
That is incorrect. IT simply means you weren't rejected. The waitlist is formulated in mid march, and at that point people on hold will be rejected. So if anything it means less than a waitlist, simply that you were not rejected post interview.
Portal changed for me the next day after I got the email
Not weird!! Someone dropped it and you were next in the list
What does the message on your portal say?
Congrats!!! Random question -- when did your portal change to "File Review Complete?". Did you get a notification when they were done reviewing your application?
