Does anyone know how to send a letter of update to mercer? For some reason I just cannot find how to do it and feel like I am missing something super obvious lol

 

[deleted1167652]

i think its in the secondary invite email

 

[deleted1167652]

You can send an email to their admissions office. musmadmissions(at)mercer.edu

If you send an update now, is it okay to send a letter of intent if you get placed on the WL? or do they only allow one letter/update?

I didn’t read anywhere where they specified to that level of detail. If you send an update now, just make sure it’s substantive.

I'm assuming they are going to meet next week and it is killing me lol, especially during finals

 

[Miminko]

I'm hoping for more news this week... last year it seems they released decisions in the second week of December, I assume because of the holidays

feel like i've only seen like ~3 reported RD acceptances for this school this entire cycle

I know of like 5 people who have gotten in, but only one of them was RD and the rest were early

Same...

 

[hellloooooooo]

I personally know 2 who have gotten in RD so I guarantee there are more than than that

It's just surprising that no one here has said anything. Yes, I understand not everyone posts on sdn but every year there are still a substantial amount of people that do post here so I'm sure not THAT many people have truly been accepted.

btw for all RD people still waiting for an II, last day to get one is jan 29th 2024

This date appeared in my secondary email as well. However, a friend was looking at the home page of my portal and noticed the following:

If the Admissions Committee decides to invite you to an interview, you will be notified by the date below depending on the program type you have applied to:

Early Decision Program Applicants: 5:00 PM September 15, 2023

Early Assurance Program Applicants: 5:00 PM October 6, 2023

Regular Pool Applicants: 5:00 PM February 2, 2024.

Please note the Admissions Committee may defer some Early Decision Program applicants to the Regular Pool without an interview and invite them to apply as a Regular Pool applicant. If you do not receive an e-mail invitation for an interview by Feb 2, 2024, regardless of the program type you applied to (Early Decision / Regular Pool), please be advised that the Admissions Committee is unable to offer you a spot in the entering class of 2024.

It's not much longer but it's a few days. Good luck to everyone still waiting on news of any kind.

Tomorrow is technically the third Wednesday of the month and we didn't hear anything last week—anyone expecting any Mercer admissions news this week?

Not expecting anything, but fingers crossed. 😅

 

[deleted1167652]

still silence for me, no II, complete 9/19 lolol

 

[xuannguyen0722]

Is there any acceptance this month?

 

[thealphaking123]

I don’t think so. I don’t know if they are holding all acceptances till they interview everyone. Could that be possibility! But then again it’s roll on admissions so idk

I wish they could just tell us if we are waitlisted or rejected or whatever 😂
My deposit is coming up soon. I was hoping for some news from Mercer lol

I had to go ahead and pay my deposit as well, and this was the interview I was most confident about. 😂

It seems like we haven’t donated enough money yet for this whole process 😂😂

 

[Miminko]

On Mercer's IG story, there's another accepted student. So it seems they sent out a few As today.. looks like it's back to the waiting game lol

 

[TheOtherTurtle]

I got an A today!

Congrats!!! Did you get a call or a email from them?

 

[redrosess]

Does anyone know if preclinical exams are in house or NBME?

lol Didn’t you get an II on like 11/27ish…👀 Assuming you interviewed between then and now you haven’t been waiting very long lol

My interview was on 11/30. Not too long but I got accepted to a DO school on Dec 11, and they only gave me a month to submit the deposit 😭😭
The pain of waiting for the unknown made me feel like I messed up even though I enjoyed the interview so much lol

It seems like everyone enjoys their interview at Mercer. I assume it’s the relaxed “get-to-know-you” format. Your interview invite came pretty swiftly after you were complete. I’m sure you did well and will hear good news in good time.

I wish we all got accepted!! We worked so hard for this!!! The waiting game is the toughest tho lol

 

[Miminko]

Yeah I thought my interview went really well too! I interviewed back on 10/31. But I guess all the uncertainty and waiting goes for any medical school really. And those DO schools with their extortionate deposits 🤨
All these schools are testing our patience before we're allowed to have patients.

 

[xuannguyen0722]

Mercer SDN is my most frequent visit. The second is Mercer SDN google search.
Definitely desperate to the next level 😂😂
The amount of DO deposit is more than my monthly paycheck lmao

 

[DRN2000]

Does anyone have a rough clue of how much assistance Mercer gives for students who fill out the FASFA?

 

[ms_2342]

I’m making an accepted students GroupMe now!

can you dm me the link to the GroupMe? Thanks!

 

[deleted1167652]

has anyone asked mercer about how filled their class is at this time? i wonder how many IIs they are gonna send out

 

[JJN38291]

Does anyone know the chances of being accepted/waitlisted after deferral from ED. I wanna go here so bad lol

 

[DRN2000]

has anyone asked mercer about how filled their class is at this time? i wonder how many IIs they are gonna send out

the accepted student group me is ~60-70 but that doesn't mean much. but if you wanted a rough estimate!

 

[girlygirll]

Hoping someone could share advice from previous years. if you were interviewed early on in the app cycle (October) and still haven’t heard back.. what are the chances of getting accepted at this point? I know Mercer says all decisions come out by March 31st, including waitlist and R.

 

[thealphaking123]

IS IL this morning, submitted early July

what does that mean? IS IL???

 

[deleted1167652]
