Do they send rejections or just deferrals?

I have been deferred since November… Am I just rejected here or will I actually be hearing something from them anytime soon? Is it unlikely for me to still get an A??

Anyone with a January interview hear back today...? guessing it's unlikely

Hi, feel free to message me if you still have questions!

Congrats to those who were accepted on Friday! Has anyone heard back from their mid-December interview? I interviewed 12/18.

 

[doglover2002]

Interviewed in late September and have been deferred since early Nov. Is this an R or should I be holding out for an A ? It’s been silence since my notification that I was deferred to next committee meeting…

Does anyone know typically how long it takes them to give a decision after an interview? I was told 6-10 weeks, but should I be expecting more?

i thought it was typically 12-14 weeks, maybe sometimes shorter than that but not often

+1 trying to be hopeful but it's looking bleak

+1 Pre-II Deferral. Do deferral's usually lead to a R?

 

[Csmith9721]

Interviewed in October, deferred in December. Should I give up hope? This is my only pending MD and I have 0 As. Stress has skyrocketed.

It's not over until it's over. If you have not already done so, I would suggest writing them an update letter that touches on your activities ehich are relevent to the school and their mission. They accept up to 2 update letters. Check the 38 minute mark in the video below for some insight.

Received a II deferral from them on March 1st

 

[sure-bar]

Does anyone know the post-II deferral protocol here? Like do we ever get officially waitlisted/rejected or are we just kept in limbo

 

[NervousAsAllHell]

Do we think we'll get December interview decisions this week?
