Had my interview with EVMS this week, I just want to say that this was THE BEST interview experience I've had. Genuinely interested and kind people, who truly seem to want to get to know you as a person. So if your interview is coming up, please do not be nervous and enjoy your conversation!

Best part about the interview was that it was only a 30 minute time commitment!

I Interviewed early November but still haven't heard back.

[doctortrafalgarlaw]

does it come up in our regular email? i haven’t gotten any correspondence from them since creating the portal

 

[Cherry90]

I am still waiting for my post II response from the school. It has been over 6 weeks since my interview in early November. Why is it taking so long to make a decision?

 

[trihard_x]

yeah regular email you have attached to your AAMC app; the email address is [email protected] (check your spam email). Goes out to people on either waitlist for any school or accepted.

Same -- looking at past yr threads, the early/late Nov ones got their decision late January

 

[Cherry90]

I noticed that people with the same interview date had already received responses before the holidays. 🙁

Happens to a lot of people. Even though it sounds simple, staying off forums with an occasional browse is the best way to stay sane

 

[amoxicillin_resistant]

are they still sending IIs

 

[futuremd1122]

are they still sending IIs

if you look at last cycle they sent II into March

 

[amoxicillin_resistant]

oh nice hopefully - fingers crossed

I made an account just to let you know I'm in the same boat as you, and I appreciate your posts as I worry the same way haha. I was interviewed in the middle of Nov and I've had complete radio silence since then. Depending on how they work through the applicants, it may be better to hear back from them later though. I'm sure we'll hear back soon enough and I'll let you know when I do! I hope that gives you some peace of mind

[medfun101]

Does sending letters of interest hold any weight with EVMS?

 

[AspiringDoctorTKD]

Does anyone know if they have preferences for what to write in the subject line of application update emails?

 

[trihard_x]

WL from interview mid Nov! Good luck everyone

 

[Cherry90]

I was told that they waitlist almost everyone and take people of gradually so this is pretty standard. There is definitely more hope being waitlisted here than some other schools.

Last cycle, I was waitlisted in the same tier but did not get in. I don't keep my hopes high.

 

[sifuhotmen]

idk if this has already been asked but does evms accept pre ii updates or letter of interests?

Don't lose hope yet!

Looking at the excel sheet I made, 14 out of the 23 students that were accepted off of waitlist were accepted between April and June of that cycle.

See below for more info about the waitlist stats. Reply with any further questions.

100% agree.

CONCERNING WAITLIST STATISTICS (2022-2023):
note 1: There is no "low-tier" waitlist. No one has ever reported it, and it doesn't seem to exist.
note 2: There were only 6 straight acceptances (A) reported and 62 waitlists (WL). Do not be discouraged by a WL. Especially this early
note 3: Being put on "HOLD" is not a death sentence, but it really reduces chances of getting accepted (only 2/15 were eventually accepted).

MSAR stats (reported from EVMS):
75 out of 200 WL (37.5%) students accepted


Distributions of the reported WL:
13 "top" tier
38 "mid" tier
11 unreported tiers
62 total


Acceptance percentages for given WL brackets:
52.8% (7/13) "top" tier accepted
31.5% (12/38) "mid" tier accepted
4/11 unreported accepted
37% (23/62) total accepted

Average turnaround from WL:
~80% usually get accepted from WL within 30 days
other 20% get accepted from WL within 40-130 days

Conclusions:
EVMS' reported stats appear to be accurate. Not all students report their results on SDN, and most straight-accepted students don't appear to.

Again, WL here is not at all a death sentence. Keep doing you, and send an update letter/letter of intent 100%.

"top" tier and "mid" tier seem to have mild differences in acceptance rates, but getting placed in either bracket neither guarantees nor prevents getting an acceptance.

GETTING A WL THIS EARLY IS A GREAT SIGN! 10 out of the 23 reported WL-->A people were from November WL!
