[nerdthebird]

Anyone else still not hear anything from Drexel? No hold or rejection or II?

I haven't heard anything either, complete August

 

[DeterminedWind]

I haven't heard anything either, complete August

Same!

 

[distresspremed25]

does not hearing anything back mean we'll get the R? i'm a bit worried now

 

[voltronforce0]

Complete July but nothing for me.

 

[BlueDove]

Complete July but nothing for me.

same here

 

[billybob321]

For those who have interviewed, what is the policy for sending thank you letters to the faculty and student interviewer? And did you just upload your LOI on the portal after the interview?

 

[asureshk]

if you don't mind me asking; when were you complete?

complete mid July

 

[Bropro]

For people who sent in update/interest/intent letters, who did you address the letter to?

 

[ishouldnotbehere]

For people who sent in update/interest/intent letters, who did you address the letter to?

I addressed just the admissions committee in general.

 

[2024app411]

I was complete early September and have heard nothing just sent an update last week

 

[carbobarbo]

Any recent decisions?? I feel like they are taking exceptionally long this year

 

[2024app411]

many schools are a bit delayed because of FAFSA. Accepted students cant make decisions without financial aid offers so they are holding more spots

 

[finessinoganesson]

Did anyone end up emailing to get an updated decision timeline? Wondering if it’s appropriate to do so given that it’s been 12+ weeks since interviewing

 

[ishouldnotbehere]

12 weeks?? If I’m interviewing in a week should I expect a decision by the end of the cycle

[getmeinpls]

thanks! I submitted to the portal

 

[billybob321]

How soon after the interview did you guys submit your letter of intent or interest?

 

[FOBhypebeast]

OOS II Today - Does anyone know how many OOS acceptance offers they give? I see on MSAR they have ~200 OOS matriculants but I was wondering if there was an estimate for how many OOS offers they give.

 

[FOBhypebeast]

Was wondering this as well. Best of luck to everyone in this thread

 

[BlueDove]

Matriculants on MSAR say 304

 

[FOBhypebeast]

Matriculants on MSAR say 304

Right. They had 304 total matriculants. I am wondering how many offers they give out (specifically to OOS applicants) in order to fill their class.

Sorry...my bad...Yes, OOS about 200, but you would have to assume they over-accept to get that yield. But I don't think there's anyway to know exactly how many they accept OOS over the 200...

 

[FOBhypebeast]

Yeah I was thinking the same haha. Thanks!

I think you also have to consider the amount of people who enter the incoming class through their bs/md program and their drexel pathway pipeline program. I think historically though they do send about 800ish acceptance which im assuming close to 1/3 of that is to OOS applicants.

 

[billybob321]

So only 266 acceptances for 1,200 OOS applications? I thought it was close to 50% post-II A rate for OOS.

 

[yero234]

So only 266 acceptances for 1,200 OOS applications? I thought it was close to 50% post-II A rate for OOS.

sorry yea i meant roughly 1/2 of the acceptances. Also does anyone know how many people usually matriculate through the bs/md and drexel pathway program. I think the MSAR and USnews data takes that into account so it might actually be a significantly lower number of acceptances sent out for those applying regularly. Again this is all speculation and I could be wrong.

 

[organiccotton]

why is this school so slow in releasing decisions post-II? I interviewed 3 months ago and still nothing...

 

[djkandy002]

OOS A received last week! Interviewed late December, LM 63

 

[aastudent]

Congratulations, hopefully they send out one more round and I get invited

 

[lobsterroll]

what was ur exact interview date and what day did you hear back last week?

 

[billybob321]

Anyone else interviewing today and waiting for the zoom to start?

 

[Premedguru656]

Does this school do silent rejections? Haven't heard anything since September.

 

[wysdoc]

Does this school do silent rejections? Haven't heard anything since September.

No and if you read above they are still sending out interview invitations.

 

[yero234]

does drexel do silent defferals or WLs. running on 13 weeks and nothing...

 

[deleted1181303]

does drexel do silent defferals or WLs. running on 13 weeks and nothing...

if you interviewed, no, def not

 

[billybob321]

I interviewed today and the admissions team said they rarely give out R's. Mainly A's and WL's.

 

[Fldoc2424]

I’m hoping for a last minute interview invite ( I know it’s probably not coming)

 

[Whiplash72]

How long did you guys wait until you uploaded your LOI for drexel?

Haven't even considered yet (12 weeks post-interview). Suppose now wouldn't be a bad time to start one lol... unless others object

 

[Bropro]

How long did you guys wait until you uploaded your LOI for drexel?

I submitted one about 6 weeks out

 

[MusicNerd]

I got an email from Drexel on my work email (not my personal email) thanking me for my interest in their graduate (PhD) programs. I think I went to a grad school fair they had reps at nine months ago or something. I'm not sure how they would have found this email otherwise; I haven't used it for any of my med school applications.

I'm over here like "can y'all please just give me an answer already"
