Anyone got a recap of the session? I couldn't make it sadly.

How do y’all even know about info sessions happening. I had no clue
They are sending out emails with this information in waves.
ahhh makes sense. I am assuming emails are still getting sent out since I know nothing still
Brian, the person leading the session, essentially said they would have sent all the open house invites simultaneously but the system has trouble sending out 16,000 emails at once, understandably. Sounds like they're spread out with no rhyme or reason as a result.

I used to think I was neurotic
Until I saw how people reacted to an open house email

oops I looked at the wrong cell in excel- I submitted 7/18 and got a completed email the same day
I haven’t gotten any open house email yet. Completed 7/21. Anyone else in the same boat?
Completed 07/21 and got the open house email this morning
It revealed more than I knew previously about their service-based philosophy! Their mission statement and secondary didn't convey that as clearly as Temple's did, for example. Now wishing I wrote a Why Drexel essay instead of a COVID essay for the optional question!

Sorry to hear that. Mind sharing when you were complete? Also, you have great stats and I'm sure you'll have a successful cycle!
Thanks, I'm not super stressed right now as things are pretty early. I submitted my secondary a bit later 08/03 complete
Do they send an email saying the stays? Or you have to keep checking the portal?
Yes, there was an explicit email stating my application is on hold
just got that famous "open house email" that ends with "This email DOES NOT indicate a change in application status."

Was just placed on hold. Is a hold at Drexel a soft R?
does Drexel not review completed apps in order? It feels they’re sending out holds randomly in different completed order
Is there a difference between "Hold" and "Hold for re-review"?

Although I do not have answers to your question since I still didn't receive their open house email (lol), I do hope that they start sending out IIs instead of the scary holds!!
dead 💀 100% with you on that
for those who have gone to the open house, how long was it?
For those placed on hold, did you receive an email notification?
Heck yes! I commend you for juggling those responsibilities and wish you all the best this cycle.
Yep
What did the email say? Just curious
Dear xx,
Thank you for applying to Drexel University College of Medicine. After reviewing your materials, the Admissions Committee has elected to hold your application. Should the Committee select you for an interview, you will receive the interview invitation via email. You may also check the status page on our website for applicants for updates.
The application process can be challenging. We appreciate your patience as we work to select our incoming class. Again, thank you for your interest in Drexel.

less juggling and more like struggling XD. But seriously thanks.
Last cycle, I was complete end of August and didn't hear anything until mid-March when I got an interview invite, so not technically ghosting but a long wait!
Has anyone here got an Interview invite with a first quartile casper?

Placed on hold yesterday, complete 7/12
Received an II from Drexel last cycle with a 1st quartile CASPer score.
It's not required so you should be fine

I submitted four LORs from individuals, has anyone submitted extra letters? At what point should I do that?
