2024-2025 Icahn (Mt. Sinai)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
To those who provided pre-II updates, did you just upload to the portal (under Document Upload), or did you reach out to let admissions know, too? Just curious because VUSM asks explicitly to email them to inform them we've uploaded.

I uploaded

From the Icahn website:

What is the policy on providing application updates?
Applicants may submit updates to their application throughout the admissions cycle, through the secondary application portal under the “Document upload” tab.

did anyone submit a post-II letter of continued interest? this is my top choice by far, not sure if i should send a more neutral update letter or really emphasize my interest and fit, especially since decisions aren't yet out

yes, pretty sure in the interview day they said they really want to hear about your interest
 
I don't really have any updates though. Do I just send a general letter of interest?

I would! I mentioned a few very insignificant “updates” (gap year activities that I told them I would do in my secondary), but most was interest. I think they said they would definitely appreciate hearing from us if we are interested!

Same here — didn’t have anything substantial to update on, mostly just tried to convey my interest
 
no II but escaped all the R waves….what does this mean😭😭
I scoured past years for Sinai on sdn and people get IIs as late as early Feb lol… so definitely possible they’ll hit you w one soon
 
I didnt apply but i just met the Dean of the medical school and an international research conference. He is a great guy and very knowledgeable. Great to have someone so research oriented and forward thinking like that leading your school guys.

same but i’m so down bad
 
OOS II! What was the interview experience like for yall?
Congrats first of all! and I haven't interviewed here so can't really answer you question. But would you be able to share when your secondary was submitted an did you uploaded an update pre-II? I am debating whether I should upload an update or not considering I have dodged all R waves so far but also no II yet.
 
OOS II! What was the interview experience like for yall?
Really awesome. I interviewed at 4 schools before my interview at Icahn, and it was by far my favorite overall. They did a really good job explaining why the school is amazing, along with their curriculum and opportunities for students. The interviewers were friendly and it was very conversational compared to the other interviews I attended.
