Lol I'm being super neurotic because UM is a top choice for me so I'm analyzing statuses 🤣

For the people still waiting for an II or to be scored, I was reading through older threads and gathered some info. These are the pre-II statuses. 1 is what you get when you complete it and they prob do some preliminary review. Then I believe 2 is the part where members of the adcom reviews it, the wording also turns green instead of black/grey. 3 is when you are scored, seems like 3 also varies in wording for some applicants. The timeline between when you switch to each one is unknown, for me I went from 1 to 2 in exactly a week. I'll update when/if I get to 3 lol

1) 'Your Application is currently under review by the Admissions Committee at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.'

2) 'Your Application to the UM Miller School of Medicine is complete and is currently being reviewed by the Admissions Committee.'

3) 'Your Application has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Applicants will be invited to interview based upon their point total from the Committee review. Applications that have been reviewed and scored by the Committee will be considered for interviews during the entire interview cycle (September - April).'
 
A! As of Wednesday night and official yesterday morning. Interviewed 10/8. This is easily my dream school. I would love to go here. However, I've heard some things about holding out on schools because if you commit early you may not be considered for a scholarship since they know you want to go there. Does anyone have any thoughts? I plan on looking more into it over the weekend.
 
OOS II! URM high MCAT low/mid GPA. Very arts/humanities focused app which I've heard miami likes. Would also like to know how soon after ranking interview dates we hear back on an official date. I was complete 8/11 and I had been scored/reviewed by the committee for a while now, not sure exactly when bc I don't check my portals super frequently, but its been at least a month.
 
for those who were WL'ed did your portal change to tell you a decision was made before you received the email?

i dunno anything about all the newfangled CTE/PTE business since we didn't have all that when I applied, but back in my day Miami went ahead and sent people scholarships with no holding out required. I think its worthwhile to wait out the cycle and see what other offers come in, but i wouldn't worry specifically about playing hard to get

Mine changed to that monday when they sent the oct 4th interviewers the big tease photo of us all throwing up the U. Says if nobody from the adcom notifies us of decision within the week to call or email them about it. Maybe yours also changed around then.
HAHAH the photo they sent I was like whatttt. Mine hasent changed yet I interviewed October 4th. Did you call or hear yet? I haven't had any status change on the page yet

Perfect, thank you!! I'll see what I get, either way just opened up to interview spots for 2 schools in Georgia I wasn't very interested in. Hope 2 people get their opportunity.
 
Do they accept updates?
From what I've seen on here, they accept updates and you just email it to them.

Has anyone gotten scored recently or any IIs? I've been stuck on "Your Application to the UM Miller School of Medicine is complete and is currently being reviewed by the Admissions Committee" for about 10 days now after my status changed to that
 
I was complete 7/26. I don't know when my application was scored exactly, but it's been like 2 months and the status on my portal hasn't changed: "Your Application has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Applicants will be invited to interview based upon their evaluation score from the Admissions Committee review. You will be contacted by email if you are selected for an interview. Interview invitations are extended between August and March." Is anyone else on the same boat? I'm worried that maybe I'm missing something (proof of Florida residency?) but I don't know if I should bother them by sending an email asking if everything is okay. What do you guys think?

As long as you're fully scored then you're just waiting for an II. When they offer IIs they pick the highest scorers off their list so depending on how strong your app was it might just take some time before you get an II. I just want to be scored so I know I'm being considered for an II at least lol but not everyone who gets scored gets an II either so there's always that possibility
 
Does anyone know when you should get the link for your interview? My interview is Friday but I don't have the zoom link or whatever they use yet. I do have access to The Hub in case its somewhere that I just can't find.

It’ll be like the day before probably! They’ll send you an email
 
I had my interview October 4th and I still dont have a change on my application that its been scored? Anyone else having this issue. I am nervous because they said at our interview we would hear by today but if my status isnt changed i dont know

The portal doesn't always update in a timely manner (or at all); I wouldn't take it as a definite reflection of what's going on with your application. I got the call late in the afternoon (almost 6 pm) so there is still plenty of time left today to hear back.
 
HAHAH damn well I hope I hear something today since I was way before
i wasnt expecting to hear back until the next adcom date 11/17 but my portal updated on monday saying id hear back within 7 days
 
can I ask when did you hear back about alternative list like how many weeks after your interview haha I just keep wondering since I was 10/4
the first day they got back to us was like Oct 18 or 21 i dont remember. The hub app says when they release decisions

Oh okok that makes sense - and did your portal update quickly after interview or when did that happen
 
congrats to all the homies who got the A! when do WL emails go out? monday? and does UM do rejection emails or does everyone who doesn't get the A gets sentenced to WL doom
 
Congrats!! When did you interview and did your portal change to tell you a decision had been made?
Thank you! I interviewed 10/8. Portal just updated on Monday same as everyone else to call or email if I hadn't heard back within 7 days. It still hasn't updated even after the call
