Do they call or email or just change the status on your portal? Also, what time are the decisions released on October 15th, is it a specific time like MCAT results?

Dean Arias calls us!

 

[gigi4567]

Thank you! Do they also call for Rs and WLs?
I'm going to die of stress until I receive this call 🙁

Some people in past threads have gotten an acceptance email without the call. It’s going to be stressful tomorrow for sure

I don't think anyone calls for Rs or WLs, anywhere. Pretty sure that's a conversation no one wants to be part of. Also, that would be a LOT of calls at most places.

This is my first cycle so maybe I am naive but is it really that important whether you hear back the first day of decision release (10/15) versus later in the cycle?

Only to the extent that most people would rather receive good news as soon as possible instead of being left hanging, with the possibility that the news won't be so good!

Good luck today everyone 🙂

 

[kyogre897]

Good luck today everyone 🙂

Constantly checking this thread to see if anyone received a call today. So far, I haven't... but anyway, good luck to you too! May we get the A.

Congrats!!! 😀 I interviewed 9/14 so hopefully she's going in the order of interview dates haha

 

[marcie88]

I interviewed 9/28!

 

[assdfsdas]

I guess she is not going in order then, right?

 

[Throwawayaccount777]

I don’t think so 🙁

 

[premedpower8484848]

I don’t think so 🙁

So does no call today= rejection or cod we still have a chance next week

*do

 

[Throwawayaccount777]

I think that depends on when you interviewed. It’s most likely a waitlist because I don’t think Keck rejects much after interviews

 

[kyogre897]

I saw on a previous post that if she can't fit in all the calls today, she will continue them next week. It's not over till it's over!

Looking through last year's thread, some people also got acceptance emails but no phone call.

 

[obliviousobviously]

Got an acceptance call from Dean Arias around 11 AM PST! Interviewed 9/28

 

[hydroflaskhomie]

Any chance y’all’s last names are in the first quarter of the alphabet? Could be alphabetical

 

[premedpower8484848]

Any chance y’all’s last names are in the first half of the alphabet? Could be alphabetical

That’s what I’m thinking. Nobody in august has heard anything back yet

 

[keurigkween]

JUST GOT THE CALL. INTERVIEWED 9/29! AHHH

 

[pandulce19]

[Throwawayaccount777]

[hydroflaskhomie]

[proteinfolder]

+1 for 9/28

 

[buddybrown78]

I interviewed last week. When should I expect to hear back?

 

[impostor_syndrOhm]

If we don't get the acceptance call today (starting to worry now 🙁) does anyone know when/how we can expect to be informed of a WL or R? Will those emails/portal updates go out today too or later?

 

[dancer24]

I believe Dr. Arias send end of October! But based on SDN from last year some early October interviewees found out today.

Don’t say this! Don’t give me hope! Lmao.
I interviewed 10/1

 

[impostor_syndrOhm]

Is it safe to say Dr. Arias stopped the calls for today? Interviewed early Sept and haven’t heard anything…

I’m thinking the same. Just going to accept a WL for now

I like this vibe. I’ve been assuming an R all day. 🙃

I’m pretty sure they rarely outright reject after interviews. The dean insinuated that on our interview day!

 

[proteinfolder]

Are there any fb groups we can join once accepted?

 

[marcie88]

Did anyone who got a phone call yesterday get an acceptance email yet?

 

[proteinfolder]

No

 

[proteinfolder]

Should we be expecting anything to come in our mail? (Snail mail not e- 🙂 )

 

[dapancake]

Hi!! is there anyone who has interviewed at Keck this year who i can dm a few questions to? Thank you!!! <3

 

[randomwallows]

I was wondering. I completed the secondary on 08/16 and I am OOS. I have not gotten an email yet regarding anything. Should I assume that I am either getting rejected or ghosted?
