2022-2023 Minnesota

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
In state, complete 7/18/22. I had an interview here last year, and was rejected post interview due to all of the spots already being filled. I applied earlier this year and gained more experience, so getting the rejection this early was so unexpected 😭
So sorry to hear 🙁! Im in a similar situation as as well. I had an interview last year and rejected afterwards and have been working on my extracurriculars. I submitted my secondary on this year 8/25/22 (2.5 months earlier than last) so I have not heard anything back. I wonder if they they look at re-applicants in a different manner?
 
I didn’t get anything yet in my portal. What did it say for yours?
Im so confused how I am the only one who got rejected through the portal, what the heck 🙁 I am so confused!!

Anyways, in the message section, it just said "University of Minnesota Medical School - Application Decision" and then I clicked "view email message" and it contained my rejection letter. It says I received this letter on August 22nd, 2022, yet I still have not received an email yet. However, at the top of the email, it is dated September 1st, 2022, so I don't know if they accidentally sent me the rejection early or something?

Either way, very sad right now, hoping this was some how a mistake or something. But I assume its probably not a mistake 🙁
 
Darn… just checked my application portal in the message section, and apparently I got rejected on august 22nd. This one really hurts a little extra since this was my top school for sure. I still haven’t received an email with my rejection letter. Anyone else in the same position as me? This was such a surprise to see I was rejected a week ago and still haven’t even received an email with this info 🙁 super sad right now!!
so sorry to hear that 🙁 definitely contact the admissions office because it's super weird they did not send you an email. Hopefully it's a mistake. If not, I'm sure the rest of your cycle will go well since you were able to secure interviews last year! Wishing you the best of luck

It seems like it was some glitch so hoping you hear good news next. This also gives us a clue that UMN will most probably update us on Thursday.
 
It sounds like Duluth admissions will be handling folks who applied to rural and Indigenous pathways (in line with previous practices), and Twin Cities admissions will be handing the other three.

Outside of campus selection, I doubt they’ll play any major role in admissions, at least this cycle.
 
Has anyone heard back from the Duluth pathways?? I wonder if they r on a different schedule
 
Is UMN still considered rolling admissions? Their website says interviews are given on a rolling basis, but decisions will come out on 2 specific dates- so I’m confused wether or not admissions are still rolling

I would call it pseudo-rolling, I guess. Interview invites are obviously still rolling. If you interview anytime until a few weeks before the first decision release date, you will hear then. Otherwise you will hear on the second date. I don’t think they are doing deferred decisions or anything like that between the two dates.

My guess is that it will still be somewhat beneficial to interview early.

GUYS OMG I GOT AN II WITH AN INSANELY LOW LM ABOUT 30 MINS AGO. Completed 7/21. Chose Twin cities and Urban pathway! I can’t believe…

OOS 🙂 LM 60

Big congrats!! OOSer with similar stats who would LOVE to go to UMN too.

Do you by any chance know when/ what dates the interviews could be scheduled for? I’m just trying to gauge since I have a surgery coming up and have every single finger and toe crossed for an II.

I checked and I’m scheduled at the end of September and that was it. No other dates listed
 
II 9/12 to Duluth. Complete 7/22. IS.

(first sdn post.. figured worth posting in here since I selected either campus)

Ecstatic for you! Thank you very much for sharing about Duluth. Good luck to you!
 
does this mean i got rejected?

"Your application has been screened and a final decision letter was sent to your preferred AMCAS email address."
Is there an email with a decision in the communications section of the portal? Seems weird they said that but you didn’t get an actual email…
