Confirmed accepted!
Congrats! email or status update?
 
I just got tabs!!!...I checked my page when people first started mentioning having tabs, and I didn't have anything...and my heart sank a bit, but then I didn't give up all hope because I remembered some people on Oct 16th reported getting tabs later than some of the first people. I was driving home, so didn't chek again until just about 15 minutes ago when I got home and I had tabs this time!!! I can't believe it!! This is my first MD acceptance if the tabs mean what everyone says!
So happy for you!! Did you get the portal update email today too?
 
Sooo I received nothing today. Clearly I’m not accepted for this offer date but I at least expected to hear back with a Hold For Acceptance or something. I interviewed last week so it hasn’t been that long but people from my interview date have received Holds and Acceptances sooooooo?

The last thing I got was the completed interview update with you will receive a portal update when your file has been reviewed by the committee. Is this normal to hear nothing at all??

They could have not gotten to your app last time they met? In previous threads, some people that interviewed close to the decision date didn’t hear back till the next decision date

Thanks! Hopefully that’s the case. I’ve been scanning the past threads like crazy but didn’t realize some people didn’t get reviewed before the offer date. February is such a long time to wait but at least that might be my highest chance of getting in? 🤞

+ 1 to this! Same exact thing for me, I’m hoping they just didn’t have time to review our files and we’ll hear back at the next date.
 
I interviewed awhile ago and I am pretty sure they said they accept update letters post II, is this correct? And if so what email do we send it to?

You're correct. Dr. Whitehurst-Cook told us that we could send them to her email at the end of my interview day. You can find her email on the school's website.
 
Sorry if this is a question that’s already been answered, but could any current students speak to what exams are like here? Like how often, if they’re NBME or in house, etc. thank you!! 🙂 and do you feel it’s difficult to high pass/honor rotations or that it’s pretty fair?

So I spoke with someone from admissions and they told me they had IT issues last Monday during the voting/review process! Apparently my file was partially switched with another applicants' so neither of our files were voted on, which is why we didn't hear anything back on 12/16. I'm guessing this is you @seekingsatori ? lol. Of course I'm thinking what are the chances this happened to meeeeeee?!?!

nooooo GIF


Either way they said I'll hear back next time and it doesn't affect my chances :xf:

The same thing happened to me - I'm still on the completed interview message in the portal. I was planning on calling the admissions office, but they were closed for the holidays. Maybe they had IT issues with other interviewees as well?
 
Moved to "Your File Review is now complete..." -- notified via portal update email

submitted July but lost track of when I moved to each stage

So weird! Yeah you should call to find out. When was your interview date?? I vote that everyone who didn't hear anything back should automatically get accepted haha :biglove:
 
My portal now shows file review complete and if I've been invited for an interview that they'll let me know on the portal - but there's no interview tab on the portal. Has this happened to anyone? Does that mean I didn't get an interview since there's no interview tab on my portal even though my file review is complete? I appreciate any and all responses

Pretty sure this is where a majority of us stand. I believe the wording is if you are invited to the interview as in the future
 
How long is it expected to remain on this status:

"Your M.D. file is now complete. The admissions committee will now do a review of your application. Once this review is complete, you will receive a status update regarding your profile."
I was on there for a couple months at least, but some people were getting moved to the sub committee in a couple weeks. When did you first notice it?
 
I just got the email that my portal was updated. I went from subcommittee to

"Your File Review is now complete. If you are granted an interview, you will receive a status update on your applicant portal. Please do not call the Admissions Office requesting special dates."​


anyone know what that means?

+1 I got this too. Not sure what it means.

I've had this message for ~2 months now. I think it is similar to a "hold"
 
How do I update adcom with my updated grades? Is there anything I should do other than submit my transcript to AMCAS?
 
Does this school reject applicants post interview ? or they just gave a score to applicants and nobody will get rejected till mid March?
