Members don't see this ad.

I am definitely starting to worry about this wait time for hearing back about a hold, acceptance, or rejection. In 10 days it will officially be 2 months since my interview day. This seems to be longer than anyone else has waited who has posted on this thread, and this is definitely longer than what they suggested in the orientation.

Has anyone else who Interviewed the week of 10/11 received an update yet??

It seems as though hardly anyone has heard much. Don’t worry, be patient! Interviewed 10/5, haven’t heard anything yet. Best of luck!

Yep. Haha. I assume it’s just a processing of my FAFSA application

 

[gillygurl]

Do your FAFSA! Won’t hurt to fill it out even if you don’t know where you are going yet. You can add more schools later on.

Interviewed 10/14 🥲

 

[OmelletesfromOmelas]

People whose interview was weeks before mine with no decisions yet mean that this is going to be a long, painful wait huh 🥲

You and me both, friend. I interviewed 11/19 and haven't even reached three weeks since my interview yet but I already feel like it's been an eternity. Just me, my portal, and the refresh button. It especially feels like a long wait since my dental friends are getting their OHSU acceptances right now (I think they run things a little earlier than we do).

 

[BigPremedGuy]

2 months out from interview here -- it doesn't get easier lol

 

[hopefullydrb]

Making mildly dank memes for the r/premed subreddit is the only thing keeping me sane rn.

Also, >1 month beyond interview and not expecting to hear until Spring.

 

[TheAnesthesiologist]

Just placed on hold - Interviewed end of September
Latest to hear back is April 30th at that point its A/R/alternate list

Rooting for you! Did you get an email or was it on the portal only?

Not OP, but I remember Kari saying the only status updates that received emails were acceptances. Holds (and savagely enough rejections) don't get a portal update right as they happen.

Thank you for your help @BigPremedGuy ! Hope we both get that 'A' soon.

Side note: The OHSU portal stresses me out, too many buttons and colors so I always think there's an update when there's not. 🥲

Same lol. I've gotten into the habit of just looking at the bottom purple dot (for me it says "Your MMI Circuit is XXXXXXX"). I assume any update will be below that one.

 

[deleted1114202]

Hopefully this doesn't cause any additional stress but I wanted to share that I was accepted last month for the MD/PhD program. I didn't receive a call or email, just randomly checked the portal and it said "accepted, updated xx" (two days prior). I received a phone call later that week and the email/offer letter at a later date. Hang in there, friends!

 

[ByGrace11]

Received II ! complete end of sept, IS, avg stats

Interview dates for January.
Any good resources you found helpful for MMI?

Thank you! I surprisingly got an email saying there’s a status update. Then I checked the portal immediately. I try to avoid refreshing daily 😅

 

[birdsnbees]

Has anyone had any luck emailing admissions and getting a response? I got my WICHE status awhile ago and emailed them to update but never got a response. I just want to make sure they have it in my file. Should I call or email again?

 

[BigPremedGuy]

"Thank you for interviewing with us. We hope you enjoyed your interview day.
PLEASE NOTE: We will update your status here as soon as a decision has been made."

 

[dogmomtodoc]

Accepted into the MD program just now. On hold for MD/MPH program. Beyond excited!! In State LM 74. Interviewed 10/19.

EDIT: I updated it to say I interviewed 10/19. I accidentally typed 11/19 earlier in all my excitement.

ITS BEGUN

What has?

 

[BigPremedGuy]

What has?

Two A's yesterday

 

[Cephalgia]

Me seeing "Your MMI is scheduled for ***" after logging in to the portal immediately after someone gets an A

 

[dreamingofdogs]

ITS BEGUN

just when i was getting so good at not constantly refreshing my portal 😂

 

[Souffles]

Anyone have any idea why there might be a lack of II? My file was complete early July, and I'm part of the mission-based groups, but have yet to receive an II. 520+ MCAT and 3.87. On the portal I see nothing, and I'm debating sending in an update letter soon.

 

[OmelletesfromOmelas]

I hope they can’t see how many times I open that damn portal every day. I’m so anxious to at least hear something back. 🥲

 

[minnniiee]

Does anyone know anything at all…. I hate all this waiting 😭

 

[BigPremedGuy]

This how my interviewer gonna react after seeing my picture in the committee meeting 3 months after my interview.

“Ohhhh ya, that guy! Forgot about him lmao”

Edit: memes only keep the pain at bay for a short time..

 

[OmelletesfromOmelas]

Any chance they send out some news before the new year starts? It feels kinda hypocritical for me to take most of December off but expect the adcom to meet leading up to the holidays, but ugh this waiting is the worst...

On the All Access Podcast the dean of admissions said that he tries to send out some right before the holidays!

including IIs? *laughs nervously*

 

[deleted1109225]

Any IS applicants still waiting for an interview invite?

 

[MDPhDHopeful3985]

Does anyone know what "hold" means? I'm an MD/PhD applicant so I'm trying to decipher if this means I'm on hold for both programs, just the MD program, etc.?

 

[tiired]

Sure is awfully quite around here...

 

[TheHatMan]

My app has been “processing” for 5 months now, so rip to my hopes for this school.
