Just got an email saying my application is complete. Submitted my secondaries in November 2023. Any chances for an interview still?

I just got the same. Submitted a complete application in the beginning of September. I've already accepted an offer elsewhere so not worried about it, but thought that was an odd/extremely late email

 

[Ghost799]

Yeah I got the same email this morning, which is weird because I submitted my application in the winter and even when I checked my status page a few days after it at the time, it said everything was complete with all green checkmarks

I got this email today as well and am wondering the same thing

 

[Ghost799]

MU-COM's website does directly say their interviews end March 29. Tbh I had already assumed I was rejected here since I heard nothing back at all since submitting the secondary + being complete on their portal

+1 and I submitted in January. I know on the MU admissions page it said the last interview date was 3/29 which is this Friday. So I’m just gonna have faith and let God do what he does. It ain’t over until I’m a doctor, or whatever.

 

[NonTradTerry]

And now a pre II rejection the next day. Glad I have other options

I got the same "Your app is completed" email a few days ago too and today I got an II. I'm unsure if I want to attend since I already have an A elsewhere and have 0 ties to Indiana.

Tips for this interview? Is it more traditional than MMI? Open or closed?

Interview is closed! Just know your "Why" questions. They asked like 5 questions I think... I didn't personally have any ethical questions. The time went by really quickly so be concise. I really didn't have enough time to ask my questions.

 

[angelmedschool]

I submitted late jan and just got an II tuesday, scheduled it for 4/5 which is their last one

Is this the same as the waitlist?

 

[spiritualgbedu]

Yes

 

[Iconic]

Yes

During my interview they stated the alternate list is distinct from the waitlist. They said possibilities post interview include: 1. Acceptance 2. Alternate list 3. Waitlist 4. Rejection

This is also what I got from the interview

Does anyone know if the class is full?

I think alternate list = waitlist. The second category between acceptance and waitlist, the one you might be talking about, is acceptance to next year's class if a spot does not become available in this cycle -> if you are in this category, you would've received a call and an acceptance email (that you have a secured spot in the following year)

 

[scoobypoo123]

For those who are accepted, do you know if the tuition deposit is binding? I know the seat deposit was not.

 

[ghjhghjghjhjghj]

Im not too sure, I recieved an interview but I’ve been waitlisted for the interview so I dont think there are any more

 

[Realsparrow]

Anyone hear today?

Can I ask when you interviewed?

 

[INeedAssistance]

For those who are accepted, do you know if the tuition deposit is binding? I know the seat deposit was not.

Did you ever figure if it was?

 

[scoobypoo123]

Did you ever figure if it was?

I don't believe it is. Not 100% certain though. Can anyone else verify this?

 

[INeedAssistance]

That’s what I figured as well, I’m sure they would’ve made it very clear if it was truly binding

 

[pbj_is_aok]

Congrats to everyone who got Alternate/WL! So if we didn't hear back about WL this week, does that mean we most likely got an R?

Why did they say something about a decision deadline?

 

[pbj_is_aok]

Why did they say something about a decision deadline?

I meant if we haven't been waitlisted yet, does that most likely mean we're rejected since it's so late and we haven't received a status yet

Do they usually respond 3-4 weeks after interview? I’m also waiting to hear.

Interviewed March 28. I was told 3-4 weeks but received an email last week stating it could be 4-5 weeks.

Did you ask them for status update? I’m wondering if I should I’m in same boat.

No. It was just an email stating the committee has not made a decision on my application yet.

I am assuming they’ll send more A after everyone narrows down acceptances May 1

 

[pbj_is_aok]

That's what I thought as well, but am not sure anymore since it seems others have already gotten waitlist offers. Hopefully, we'll hear good news soon though!
