Members don't see this ad.

So is today a letdown then? Frustrating!

I assume we could hear any time until 5pm today based on normal business hours

 

[dudlee]

i'm so down bad for pitt

 

[Rk471]

I can see Scaife Hall from my desk at work, might have to walk over and ask them whats taking so long

 

[huaxiang]

I wish they would release so I can be productive at work already 😵‍💫 well either that or crying in the bathroom

 

[petrus-romanus]

Nice, can you peek through the windows and see if they are taking a snow day.

I know this is a joke but AFAIK everyone is remote today...not going back to being fully in person for students and staff until Monday lol

lmao are they going to wait until Monday then so they can all be in one room and click the "release decisions" button together

Pitt went back to in-person classes this Wednesday, pretty sure not everyone is remote, and i don't think remote working would delay decision releases if they intended to release them today from the start

Correct, remote working should not impact decision release.

 

[Garod]

Decisions will be released today.

Any thoughts on what time

 

[ECMOrunner]

Decisions will be released today.

Aren't you also the one who said that they heard decisions would be released on the 21st during their interview?

Was just about to point that out🤣

Is this manifesting or is this toxic energy

Hey if you make enough guesses, eventually one's gotta be right lol

 

[deleted1106140]

Decisions will come sometime between now and Monday. Trust me.

is it likely that those who've received PSTP interview invites already have the A for the MD application?

 

[dudlee]

was wondering the same thing... i thought to be invited to interview for the PSTP, we had to have a A/WL. i would think the fact that you were invited to interview is a good sign. but maybe that's just what i'm manifesting for myself haha

They're totally independent, but a PSTP A is an almost guarantee off of the MD waitlist.

curious to know how separate the two admissions offices are. there's definitely gotta be some sort of communication between the two groups of adcoms pre decision release but i have no idea the extent

From what I remember through the info sessions they have no idea what your initial post-II status is. I think this is because most interviewees end up WL at worst, and a PSTP acceptance is as good a bargaining chip as any to get someone off the WL

I really hope this is true because I got a pre-II PSTP R on the same day my application was complete. I was thinking that quick of an R could have been because they saw I was going to be regular MD R or low waitlist...

Hey everyone, the anxiety seems to be rising on this thread because decisions are closer.
Try to support each other through the worry and not turn the tension on each other, you'll feel better about it!

Good luck whenever they notify you

 

[Rk471]

I am a bit anxious especially since last year I heard that decisions didn't come out until like Feb 19

That was because of the extended interview season they had last year with the uncertainty of Covid

 

[TuckGamePerfect]

I just want to say that periodically checking this sub throughout the work day and seeing all y’all’s posts is so lovely. It’s like we have our own little community support group for neuroticism.

Thanks for all the warm and fuzzies! ❤️

Where’s Dobermann’s love when you need it most

 

[petrus-romanus]

What is your favorite part about being at UPSOM?

It’s hard to pinpoint a single favorite, but j love the people! Great fellow students and amazing faculty that cares a ton about your progress and development.

 

[SchmuckNugget]

Maybe it takes a minute because they're having a party to celebrate being able to accept everyone else on the list

 

[sweatysweetpotato79]

Do they call or is it a portal change / email?

 

[brainperson1]

It’s a portal change and email

 

[April-Cancer]

Do they call or is it a portal change / email?

They will send an email to let you know there is a portal change but as far as I know the decision itself is only communicated through the portal

 

[Snoop32]

Decisions out! A IS!

 

[Medicat]

OMG ALSO GOT THE A I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!

 

[dudlee]

waitlisted :/ not sure how much longer i can deal with this app cycle..

 

[tree_hugger2]

[a1324566]

waitlist, my dream school and my interviewer said I was a perfect fit and should expect good news so it really stings

 

[April-Cancer]

WL. Pain. Kinda expected it though cause I didn't vibe at all with the interviewers.

 

[Rk471]

WL, damn

 

[tandapp]

WL as well (as expected, but still... ugh). Good luck everyone deciding or waiting some more

 

[linddawg]

[charli-md-amelio]

[Hokusai Wave]

[Garod]

WL although I was confident.

 

[stargirl_interlude]

[premedhopeful1013]

WL

 

[Drinking-coffeeeeee]
