Hold Info 2

Also for anyone not on hold, this is the email they sent out last year.

Thank you for your patience in waiting for communication from the Admissions Office regarding the status of your application to the UCSD School of Medicine. Our Recruitment and Admissions Committee has completed its review of your application. The Committee initially makes one of three decisions. Applicants may be invited for an interview, placed on “hold” for an interview, or receive no further consideration for an interview. You have been placed on “hold” for an interview. Our Committee will again review the applications of those on “hold” for an interview by early February 2023. We anticipate that additional interview offers will be extended at that time, but we are unable to assess/approximate the likelihood for any individual applicant. Applicants that will not be invited will also be notified by email of our decision. We are not able to provide feedback to applicants on why this decision was made. Every year applicants ask us if they can provide updates on activities, new grades, additional letters of recommendation, or “letters of intent.” Please do not send any materials – interview decisions will be based on the materials we have already received through the regular application processes. Thank you for your interest in the UCSD School of Medicine entering class of 2023.

I wouldn’t be so sure. Last year’s thread included ucsd med students saying they had a lot of classmates that were put on hold before there II and eventual acceptance (some with scholarships as well). It’s hard to know what this hold actually means but if you haven’t been rejected, then you are still in the running.

Definitely, I know someone who was held and interviewed in March last year. Thats said, I would probably treat it as an R and then get ecstatic if it turns into an II eventually.

For all of us pre-II holds, we just have to be happy it’s not an R. Who knows who won’t take the II or the A, it’s still early ✌🏽
