I don't believe that they send confirmations for update letters. If you uploaded it to the portal and it shows it there, you should be good to go!I sent an update letter last month via the portal but never got confirmation that it was received. should i have gotten confirmation? should i reach out?

during my interview day they said that they meet in the 3rd week of the month and since they’re at the end of interview season, all their decisions would be released by the end of the month (3/28)so is there a chance us mid febs hear this week?
My guess is the week including 2/23- 3/1 is not included in the 3 weeks they refer to. So I think we are likely gonna hear 3/21 or 3/24. I would love to be wrong tho hahaso is there a chance us mid febs hear this week?

Hi! I was assigned to the Peoria campus and was hoping some current students could reach out to me so I can ask them questions?
Has anyone here ever written a letter of intent to UI com, and do you feel like it helped? Especially curious to hear from anyone who was DD or felt like they were on the edge after interviewing.

so i interviews in febuary, was put on delayed decision even though I think the interview went well ( I have a guess for why ), and did send a letter of intent. Obvi I do not know if it helped but after reading that they are now pretty much done with interviews, I can only hope it does plus have them give me the chicago campus lolHas anyone here ever written a letter of intent to UI com, and do you feel like it helped?

No R yet but assuming it’s coming given that it’s March and interviews are done.
What day did you interview? I think the 2/13 and 2/14 interviews were all put on DD?so i interviews in febuary, was put on delayed decision even though I think the interview went well ( I have a guess for why ), and did send a letter of intent.

Pre-II IS R. Apparently all the interviews were concluded last week, so sadly they wont offer anymore interviews this cycle. This one hurt real deep cuz I had some really strong ties to the school :/
I'm so upset 😭 Have to leave family again for higher education now. I already miss them and I'm not even gone yet.
Current first-year medical student at UICOM-Peoria. In person campus tour visits are entirely optional and not in place of second-look day. Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions!Did anyone else assigned to Peoria get an email about campus visits? Is this in place of the second look day?

Was accepted in December and just got an email about financial aid last week. It said I need to login to their portal to see it and that if I'm a new student I would get an email with a portal token in a few days but I haven't gotten one. Has anyone been able to login to see their financial aid?

Unfortunately, I believe so. If you go back one page someone posted that they were told all interviews had been completed and no more II would be extended.if no II has been received is it safe to conclude that we wont be receiving one?
This is correct, all IIs have been sent and I am pretty sure interviews have all been completedUnfortunately, I believe so. If you go back one page someone posted that they were told all interviews had been completed and no more II would be extended.

Did you email them and ask? It seems so strange that they didn't send you a response when they do so consistently every month.Should I take it as a bad sign if I interviewed in mid Jan and have had no decision since? (No DD either) and I looked in the portal to confirm no communication was sent regarding decision.
I don't think they started doing their historic pre-ii R wave yet, so most applicants likely haven't heard yet despite interviews concluding (source: Illinois )Anyone else been ghosted by this school? Like not even an official R?

Yeah I would def mention it in your email. They mention that they send out decisions regularly somewhere on their website, so a mistake mustve been made. hope you get a decision soon!!I sent a letter and emailed them right after last round of decisions when I didn’t hear anything. But didn’t mention or ask abt not having a decision

Does the Peoria campus have a groupme or a Snapchat group? If not, I can make one if anyone is interested in joining. I would love to get to know you all before orientation and I’m sad that I will not be able to join you all at the in-person second look but I hope you all have great time!

Is a decision coming tomorrow?

I hope! Has anyone heard anything re: the person who said that they were planning to release all decisions by the end of the month and if that means no more DD?Is a decision coming tomorrow?

i’m assuming most if not all decisions would be out tomorrow given their pattern of release. they said all decisions would be out at the latest by 3/28. they did say DD could be among those decisions but it’s unlikely, so most decisions would be R, WL, or AI hope! Has anyone heard anything re: the person who said that they were planning to release all decisions by the end of the month and if that means no more DD?
During my interview (on 2/28) they said it is unlikely but not impossible that they give DD in the March wave, given PTE date in April.I hope! Has anyone heard anything re: the person who said that they were planning to release all decisions by the end of the month and if that means no more DD?
