Were you on hold before this?

Not that I’m aware of. I never received a “hold” email.

Oh okay I see, congratulations on receiving the interview, wishing you the best 🙂

[thrownaway11]

For those that interviewed, when did they say we would hear back with decisions?

 

[FutBagelMD]

They didn't specify, just said to expect it after October 15th.

For those that interviewed, when did they say we would hear back with decisions?

They did mention that out of the 546 interviews they expect to give, 271 are still available.

 

[billybob321]

Wait what? On msar it says they give out 775 interviews...

 

[heartstar124]

They said that they got 18% more applications this year so maybe they want to become more competitive. The assistant dean also said not to trust SDN or Reddit lmaooo

 

[heartstar124]

They specified Oct 16th for us but they seemed not sure

 

[billybob321]

So they have more applications but also decreased the amount of interviews given out? Seems kinda wack tbh

 

[butterfly03]

OOS II received today. ORM. No ties. RMS applicant. LM ~71-72. Complete 8/30. Earliest interview date is in January.

Incredibly disheartening to read as OOS, considering that last year they only interviewed 174 OOS.

They're only giving 546 interviews? Last year on MSAR they gave 775 interviews (564 IS, 174 OOS, 37 international)

 

[purpleolions]

Do Canadian applicants count in the international category or OOS?

Per SUNY Upstate's website, Canadian applicants count as international.

 

[aan_23]

what do you do if you've received a pre-II hold? should you send an update letter? when is too soon to do that?

 

[Justchallenge4]

Is upstate a silent reject school? Been trying to find that information but haven’t. IS and have been complete since 8/10 but haven’t heard anything back from them

 

[Candyi]

+1 received on hold today when is the latest to send update letter?

 

[onequark]

OOS hold on Friday as well.
It sure feels like a soft rejection based on the numbers people are talking about here.

When were you complete?

 

[PencilWise]

Should I be worried if I am IS and still haven’t had gotten any hold or like any status updates yet? LM 71 (3.9x/Low 51x)

 

[onequark]

When were you complete?

7/28 complete
hold 9/29

During my information session they said they were still very early in their cycle, so I wouldn’t worry too much

Very early in their cycle but earliest interview date is in January + have apparently given out 50% of the IIs they plan to send out 😵‍💫😵‍💫.

Got email from upstate today…~200 interview spots remain

 

[peter_lambda]

Got email from upstate today…~200 interview spots remain

Yeah also got this email today...

 

[PencilWise]

Got email from upstate today…~200 interview spots remain

Oh man…Anyone know how many in total upstate usually interviews and is that only referring to instate spots?

 

[billybob321]

Yeah also got this email today...

Did you already interview?

 

[Hexed]

Oh man…Anyone know how many in total upstate usually interviews and is that only referring to instate spots?

Last year it was 775 people (scroll up, someone broke it down).

But yea… I’m coping because Upstate is my first choice and both posters are IS, so part of me wants to believe that it’s not over for OOS and that they’re only telling IS applicants numbers.

I also didn’t receive that email so I wonder what the criteria was to get it (IS/OOS, hold vs not on hold, etc).

Next week

Yeah I'm really confused as well. I'm wondering if we should ask the admissions office directly to get a straight answer.

 

[cb1231]

The email just went to people who subscribed to the upstate listserv on their website, “Upstate Update” — I.e. not an email from admissions. Like if you completed the “send me more info” form. I’ve been getting these monthly newsletters since I filled the form out last year before applying. The 200 is definitely total interviews left, is and oos.

 

[Randomman]

For anyone who interviewed, how was it? I know it’s MMI but overall how was your experience?

 

[drtobe_]

Does anyone know what the written question is before the interview starts? Is there anything in particular we should prepare for? Thanks!
