Is it healthcare related?
Totally understand where you’re coming from and I also would be conflicted. Was in a similar situation to you and had some potential job opportunities when I was waiting to find out. I’m the type who wouldn’t want to take a job then leave real soon (or in my case, continue to progress through job interviews and waste everyone’s time). At the end of the day, the advice I got from many people was to look out for my own best interests and to continue planning my life as if I was not going to get in rather than put everything in my life on hold. But obviously you have to do what’s right for you.
Wow, congratulations!!!!Accepted this morning! Interviewed 1/28. Holy moly third app cycle really is the charm I guess.
Damn, same MMI day as me, I thought I waited forever. That stinks friend I'm sorry. The letter won't hurt, but I don't think it will do anything to change their file. I was thinking about it too but I think it would fall on deaf ears tbh.
Unfortunately the letter won't make a difference. They use a point system to rank all their applicants, and how many points you have determines whether you are accepted, rejected, or waitlisted and ultimately what the rank list order is.
Yeah, I saw we had the same MMI date. Hopefully they'll look at my app soon.
You're right. Patience is a virtue.
I think my interview group was told that they release 80% of decisions (accept, refuse, alternate) at the end of April but I don't think told us what the proportion would be for acceptances vs. alternate or denial.
Not sure if this is at all helpful as my numbers were locked in when I matriculated and I'm in state (they have/had a guarantee that tuition would not rise once I started) or if this is even what you're looking for. But my tuition is ~$11k/term, estimated living expenses ~$6200/term, medical insurance ~$1500/term, some smaller miscellaneous fees, and then additional estimated costs depending on the year for taking Step 1, Step 2, etc.
True, I really wonder if 80% of matriculants are offered an acceptance in april. I hope it’s true.
Congrats!
Were you on hold, or did you get accepted straight out of the interview?
I’ve been on hold! I interviewed in October 😅
woa, I thought they only sent rejections post hold before April 30th... This gives me hope
Did you get an email to check your portal?
I did
When did they tell you you were on hold? That just seems crazy to me that they’ve contacted you TWICE in the span of 8ish weeks but for some of us they haven’t told us anything in months…. OHSU has a truly wonky system. I’ve given up trying to guess when I’ll hear back
I think the issue is individual interviewers that only very rarely make it to committee meetings. I'm just guessing, though. Right there with you... no word for months
I was early Feb and haven’t heard anything.
I was put on hold the week after my interview.
Stats?I also got the A by email yesterday after being on hold since November and interviewing in Sept. Definitely surprised to see something before 4/29! Good luck to everyone else on hold, I hope you all see some movement soon
LM 72, non trad, OOS but have oregon heritage
Ope R today via email to check portal
I also interviewed mid february and haven't heard anything, but I think thats more hopeful than a rejection, the wait does suck thoughPost 8 weeks since mid-february interview and no news at all
+2. I'm trying to tell myself that I probably won't hear back until 4/30. Still suffering with waiting though
It's not a great measure because a number of students from other classes are usually also members of that group. The closer we get to the start of the school year, the more current students join so that we can help with the transition into school and then offer help through the first year. I wouldn't put a lot of stock into the numbers on FB.
