Deferred in december and never heard back. Withdrew yesterday.

 

[Rezi]

Day late but withdrew my A, best wishes to everyone!

 

[carbobarbo]

Do u guys think deferred applicants will start hearing back next week based off last year? Seems like they’re still super behind on sending initial decisions

yeah my guess is they'll take a few extra weeks before significant deferral movement considering they still have 4-6 weeks of initial decisions to make

 

[ishouldnotbehere]

Love y’all withdrawers

 

[billybob321]

I interviewed march 14th and I'm kinda scared they won't get back to me before end of May...

 

[dupuytrenscontracture]

Also withdrew today!

I’m in the same boat

 

[blazersfan2000]

I’m in the same boat

[tcxsao]

dear drexel,

pls just give me a decision i'm begging you

sincerely,
i just want to enjoy my summer in peace & know where i'm headed this fall (i have one acceptance right now but their commit to enroll deadline is 5/15 & i'm in waitlist purgatory with 4 WLs and no decision from drexel despite interviewing 2/7. pls drexel you're my top choice)

 

[green1724]

[please.accept.me15]

does paying the deposit = a commitment to going to drexel? i just got the A yesterday and i'm not sure what I should/shouldn't do if I'm still waiting to hear back from WL at other schools esp with the campus placement lottery being rolling

You can select Drexel as PTE on CYMS and still keep your WLs. As long as you get rid of all acceptances but Drexel, in this case.

 

[mTORC2]

Does anyone know when they’ll send campus assignments?

 

[Orbeez]

Anybody who interviewed Feb 8th get any news?

[Rooks]

march interviewees, when do you think we are going to hear back?

 

[Soyantha27]

march interviewees, when do you think we are going to hear back?

Not 100% sure but when I interviewed late March they told us 8-10 weeks. So I’m not expecting anything for another month-ish

at least we're all used to waiting at this point haha. I just want to have a final decision back before July, so I don't have to rush my move.

 

[ishouldnotbehere]

I think early June is when March interviewees have heard back past years

For LOIs, who did you address in the letter and where did you all send them too?

Go to Medical School Letter of Intent Tips (2023-2024) | MedEdits

Here you will find a picture of exactly what your email should look like.
I would send the LOI to the dean of admissions & director of admissions, cc the admissions email address

Hope this helps!

i got the A 😭😭😭 literally cried from happiness yesterday

primary verified: 9/5
secondary received: 9/19
secondary submitted: 1/1
II received: 1/25
interview date: 2/7
acceptance: 5/6 (~5 pm)

never received a pre-II hold or deferred decision

 

[lllllvvvvssss]

does anyone know how drexel feels about reapplicants? or if anyone's gotten an A after reapplying

 

[signomiii]

does anyone know how drexel feels about reapplicants? or if anyone's gotten an A after reapplying

I’m a reapplicant who did not get a II or hold from Drexel last cycle and got in early this year. I did talk about it during my interview. Idk how much this factored into my decision but I doubt being a reapplicant is seen negatively by them, prob more positively

 

[hopefulphysiciansoon]

do we need to commit to get a campus assignment? i submitted my preferences but have not fully committed yet

that's so reassuring!! how early did you apply this year? given the reapplicant, ik earliest is best, but just wondering when you were "complete"

 

[veraserah]

I've talked to the deans about this in 1 on 1's, and they said it's "a blank slate" for each application cycle - direct quote. There's just too many applications per year to add more to their workload. That being said, your past applications are still in their system under your application profile (I've been in there before) so it's not like they're blind to it while in your application. If your interviewer is particularly spicy, they may even ask about it.
