I am too!I submitted my secondary back in late June. The status has been “submitted” since then. Is anyone else still on this status?

Got an interview! I didn't get a real email--it came through the portal around 2 pm (I guess obsessively checking does pay off?). Chose the 10/10 interview date. This is my first interview so I'm super stoked!
My son has the same status but submitted on 8/1. Not sure what the status changes to next for either positive or negative.I submitted my secondary back in late June. The status has been “submitted” since then. Is anyone else still on this status?
It updated in the section right under the reference number section. No new tab or anything.Congrats! Was there a specific place on the portal that updated or a tab that got added?
@tor_n First, congrats on getting an interview with the school! Since it has been less than two weeks, I'd say hang in there. Consider this, my son (and lots of others) hasn't/haven't even received an II yet and you've already completed that part. You obviously caught the eye of the admissions folks and will likely do the same with that of other schools. Be confident in that and know you've already done a LOT of great work to get to this point! Praying you get some good news soon.Anyone who interviewed 9/12 heard back yet? I know it hasn't been that long, but I am starting to psych myself out (beyond my average level).
I also interviewed that day. If I remember correctly, they said they’d have news around 2 weeks from then. So we should be getting something soon.Anyone who interviewed 9/12 heard back yet? I know it hasn't been that long, but I am starting to psych myself out (beyond my average level).

Officially 2 weeks since the 9/12 interview date! Hoping for a verdict soon Am doing my best to balance my excitement-to-neuroticism ratio... definitely checking my email too much. In the interview day packet is says "14-21 working days", although I do recall them stating 2-3 weeks on the interview date itself. Not sure what they classify as a working day? If they mean weekdays then we could be looking at at least another week. Fingers crossed!
Can anyone here speak to the job market in Lebanon for potential significant others? Thanks!
Does anybody have advice on post-interview thank you emails for this school? I made sure to personally thank my interviewers at the end of my interview. However, most schools deem it a professional courtesy to send a thank you email after the interview as well and others ask they not be sent. It wasn't mentioned at all during the interview day and I'm curious if anyone knows COMP-NW perspective on them.

No specific job (he is currently admitting rep and security in a hospital), but just trying to get a feel for whether it will be more or less difficult to get a job than our current situation (small rural town). Assuming I were to get in, of course. Gotta distract myself somehow! Glad to hear there are plenty of nearby opportunities. Thank you!what kind of job are they looking for? Lots of opportunities within 30 min of Lebanon between Lebs, Albany and Corvallis. Eugene and Salem are 45 min away as well
Hey All! I’m a current second year at COMP-NW, here to answer any questions you may have! Best of luck with the app cycle.

Hi and thank you for joining this forum!
I was hoping you could tell me if there is any use of a "flipped classroom" model at COMP-NW? For example, the use of small breakout sessions to facilitate problem-solving and group-based learning. My impression is that most lectures are traditional (i.e. lecturer providing content to the whole classroom.) COVID may have affected this, but I have seen how this approach can still be used even with ZOOM. Thanks!
Accepted!!!!!
I received a phone call for acceptance, they said that an email should be following in the next couple days. No status change or update in the application portal.
I can tell you that they all don’t happen on the same dayCongrats to everyone accepted! Does anyone know whether all acceptance calls are done on the same day? I interviewed 9/12 and assume that since I didn't receive an acceptance phone call today, I should expect either WL or R. Perhaps I'll be pleasantly surprised, though.
I haven't heard back yet either and interviewed the same day. High stats applicant and I feel my interview went okay, if not my favorite I've done.Congrats to everyone accepted!

Did that include the "CASPer Test Received" checkbox as well? My son's app was all received by 8/1 except the CASPer was not received until 8/14. Wondering if he will get the Committee Review email soon.I didn't think this school sent complete emails but lo and behold "Your WesternU App is Ready for Committee Review" email today. I had all the checkboxes on 8/6 for reference. Anyone know how long between this email and a decision?

I also interviewed that day and am blessed to say I got my acceptance call today, so I would say there is still a chance you get an A call as well. In disbelief still. Wish you the best on your cycle.Congrats to everyone accepted! Does anyone know whether all acceptance calls are done on the same day?

I was waitlisted here and just declined the waitlist. I had already ranked them lower than my two acceptances anyway. Truth be told, I had done it before I interviewed, but thought something might change my mind. I think my lack of enthusiasm showed. Good luck on the rest of your cycle, guys!
Got an II this morning! I tried to schedule a date on the "Interview Scheduler" but there was only 1 available day (Nov. 7th, the October dates are already full) that I cannot register for until it is 30 days away. Did anyone else run into similar scheduling difficulties or know how often they open up interview dates?

I had the same issue. I tried emailing the admissions officer listed in the application portal, so will update when I get a response. I also tried calling but I had no luck with any of the numbers listed in the email and the portal. I suppose the other option is to wait until this Thursday to sign up.
My son submitted 8/1 and still no II. The CASPer was received on 7/30 in the "Official Test Scores Received" area but 8/14 in the "Application Checklist". That is his latest date in the list. He sent an email to Admissions asking for status or if he needed to provide anything else. Still no word. Same with PNWU, LECOM, and VCOM. He's been accepted at LMU-Knoxville and has interviews with CUSOM and KYCOM. Not sure if the others are waiting since he is OOS or not. His stats are pretty competative (cGPA & sGPA <3.5 & 312 MCAT) with good ECs. Hoping for something from Western or PNWU. Most of our family is in Washington and we're looking to move there. Good luck with the rest of the stress-fest that is the med school application cycle!Anyone who submitted August 30th or later get an II yet?
There is no MMI this year. Only the panel interview.Hi! Sorry if this has already been asked. I know in past years there has been a traditional interview as well as a short MMI. Though this year based on the website it seems as though there is just a 30-minute interview. Does anyone have a definitive answer on this?

Excellent, thats exactly what I wanted to hear.There is no MMI this year. Only the panel interview.
Great feedback! I hadn't thought of that and assume my son had not either. I'll chat with him this weekend about the letter. Many thanks!If this is truly your son's first choice, I do recommend writing a letter of interest and emailing it to admissions at Lebanon or attaching it to his portal. A letter of interest was the reason I got an interview a few years ago, and it goes a long way to show admissions that they won't be wasting an interview on someone who may never chose to come here
