I’m sorry to hear that. How was your interview and stats if you don’t mind me asking?

Thought it was one of my best interviews, but it was also by far the most conversational so maybe I didn’t handle that effectively. LM 78. & I’m in state and already accepted to RWJMS. I’m holding acceptances to mutliple schools I would attend over NJMS anyway, but it’s extremely frustrating that they left me in complete silence for almost half a year. At least an email letting me know they’re delayed or reviewing my app would’ve been nice. I’ll be declining my spot on the WL so hopefully it will go to one of you! Best of luck.

Update here for you guys. I know some of you are in a similar situation.

I interviewed back in Oct. 19th and haven't heard anything since. I emailed admissions a couple days ago to try to find out why they were taking so long. They emailed me back.

Basically they said that due to the size of the applicant pool this year (Fauci effect I suppose), they have been overloaded. They added that I should hear back from admissions within the next 10 days.

Not sure if this is good news, but I will remain confident. Hopefully we all get answers soon!

Still nothing. Hoping I will hear something in the next couple of days.
 
Has anyone heard anything regarding decisions from October interviews? Still waiting to hear back

Had my interview late Oct and got reg alt list in Dec. So tbh, it probably good you havent heard yet because it most likely means an A or atleast high priority

Same here, interviewed late October and got regular alt list in December. If you haven't heard, it's probably a good thing

See. I said it was a good thing

Basically my thought is that they immediately knew I wasn't good enough for an A, so they rushed to hit me with the regular WL. For you, they might like your app more and are deliberating more carefully. At the very least, you're not an instant R/WL :)
