They said in an interview meaningful updates are ok, LOI's are not weighted heavily.

does UMass only send A's on Fridays?

Hard to say, only 2 dates they've sent A's this cycle are 10/15 and 10/25 so n = 2 and 50% were a Friday. A's from last year according to this cycletrack data were all on Fridays too.

I'm hoping for a result this Friday or next, it also looks like the first wave of R's come out around mid to late November though.

Same, and I interviewed in early August. Seems like it’s pretty random when you get reviewed by the committee. The committee meets less frequently in the fall and then more often after the new year.
 
For those who had their PURCH interview, how does it differ from the regular MD interview?

For any current/alumni students, how did you like the PURCH track? How did it differ from your peers doing just the regular MD track?

Pretty similar to the regular interview but with an info session
 
Has anyone else received an email saying that they have reviewed application and have not yet made a final decision and remain in active consideration? I interviewed in mid August.

I got the same email and interviewed around the same time as well.
 
Just got that same email. Interviewed Early August. Is this another way of saying i’m on hold?

Do you think this is positive that we got this email or in other words saying they want to wait to see what other applicants are available before deciding?

Same thought. Is there a difference between this email and being on the waitlist?

During my interview they said they would send out these emails ~4-6 weeks post interview, I don't think it is a waitlist, more just a courtesy email.

What section of the portal is that in? I can't find the link for it

They keep sending those emails and then not putting the link on the PeopleSoft. I emailed them about it last session and they responded but did not fix it

They ended up sending the link last time to everyone via email after I emailed ADCOM saying the link was not on the UMASS PeopleSoft portal. The Q and A session is not the link for the small group discussions.
