did anyone have the "admission data forms" tab pop up on their portal, yet when clicking on it it says "This page is only available for the admitted students"

That's been there for quite some time for me, I think at least since Dec.

+1, fairly certain that tab has been there since I interviewed in August

Portal appears to be down for me too. Oh boy, we’re in the endgame now 😨

Edit: False alarm, looks like it’s still up

My bad you guys are right, it was scheduled for tomorrow. Interesting, maybe we will hear back tomorrow?

 

[chimericantigenreceptor]

+1 for it being down. Historically results came back the following day?

Did not seem to be any real pattern, but we will hear sometime in the next 3 business days and hopefully before the weekend

 

[chimericantigenreceptor]

It’s back up

 

[palmtree137]

Anyone else have a mini heart attack every time you get an email notification now? This is torture lmaoooo

 

[nucleofied]

Do they email to notify about portal changes?

 

[dudlee]

yes i am absolutely losing my mind!

Only every time for the last 6 months

I think the hardest part is not knowing if it's gonna come out today, tomorrow, or the day after.

which makes it a terrible week for me to not be busy enough with other things to distract me from refreshing this site and the portal

It will eventually come out.
No need to stress about it.
It's like death. We know it will eventually come, but stressing about when is useless and life denying.

I feel like my interview didn’t go as well as I had hoped, so I’m kind of enjoying this Schrödinger’s decision before what I think is going to be an R /: Anyone else feeling less than optimistic?

I keep overthinking every single thing I said and feeling more and more discouraged. But this also could just be our anxiety. All we can really do is hope for the best 🙂

I'm expecting WL. Thought my interview went really well, but as a local with stats on Pitt's lower end, I'm thinking it will take them awhile to come around (if they do haha). So many fabulous people on this thread - we'll all be okay no matter how it goes, but boy does waiting sting. Good luck everyone!

In the same boat. Already have emails drafted to send to a few of my reccomenders and others I know with connections to the school to ask them to plead my case with admissions

Pitt has lots of waitlist movement. It’s not a bad place to be!

 

[Rk471]

No decision in portal yet

Does that actually work? Can you do that?

 

[Rk471]

Does that actually work? Can you do that?

it is essentially having other people send update letters on your behalf, I know a current student that did a similar thing when they were waitlisted and got in

 

[a1324566]

My application status moved to the left idk if that means anything. still no decision but the formatting changed

Not sure either, just wanted to join in on the (neurotic) fun :')

 

[brainperson1]

Are those with changes checking on their phones or on the computer?

 

[palmtree137]

Computer (mac). Its a very subtle change. The "your MD application is complete and under review" moves from next to the bolded supplemental application heading to right above it.

Ohhhh.... thought y'all were talking about the tabs.

Welp, back to hiding under my rock until this blows over.

OH WAIT me too lmao. definitely thought we were talking about the tabs here. good luck everyone :,)

 

[Morningnight]

Hi y’all, just wanted to mention that based on past years SDN threads, the portal changing DOES NOT indicate Acceptance/WL/Rejection. It simply indicates to all of us that decisions are a couple days away. Wishing y’all the best 🙂

 

[aliceinscienceland]

Hang in there guys! I know we're all tempted to refresh the portal every 10 seconds, but taking a walk and getting some fresh air will help with the anxiety 🙂

 

[deleted1106140]

Do they send a simultaneous email?

 

[hagalaga19]

Are those with changes checking on their phones or on the computer?

I just checked on my phone and the status is also above the heading / exactly like they described above. Nothing else changed!

 

[SchmuckNugget]

Wait they call, right? Or does it come out just through the portal? And I'd hope that they'd send a simultaneous email. Good luck peeps 🙂

 

[dudlee]

think they just update the portal, no calls or no emails. good luck to you too!!

 

[a1324566]

Wait they don't send an email? 🙁

They send an email to check the portal, but no decision through email. Based on other years sometimes it's sent the same time as the portal update but other years there's a delay
