The email wording sounds like everything happens after you Commit to Enroll, and the Accept/Decline button on the portal says it's to confirm your enrollment, so it seems like all of this happens when you commit.

Weird question but has anyone gotten merch in the mail? The interview email made it seem like they were going to send us something.

Yes you get some stuff in the mail after you interview!

What time of day do they normally release your decisions on the portal? I signed up and planned to do an in person tour Nov 8th before I realize my decision comes out that day, lol.

It's very early, mine was in by 6am on the day it was supposed to be released.

For anyone who has interviewed, was it conversational or a set list of questions? Lighthearted or interrogation style?

they have a list of questions and some of the questions led to a conversational vibe, some didn't. Overall, i would say lighthearted (depends on interviewer) but definitely structured.

 

[JaggedTuba]

Most people on the tour were in business casual type outfits, but some were in casual wear since there was no required dress code.

 

[anonymouselephant]

IS A!! So excited go buckeyes!!

 

[meeel5]

I was recommended for the MEDPATH program. Anyone have insights into this program? I’m bummed it wasn’t an outright II but also weirdly ok that it’s a maybe 🙃

 

[premednate]

OOS Deferred. What are my chances? I want to send a letter of intent but the MSAR says they do not accept them. Any harm?

 

[PreDeltaMed]

Does anyone have the link for tracking my application status to this medical school? I can’t find it anywhere.

Actually I finally found it. It is the vitals page I believe.

 

[SeaMonster]

Just finished my interview here! Does anyone know the plan for sending thank you letters? I don't believe they mentioned it during the process today

I just sent my interviewers separate emails! You can find the emails through the calendar invites.

You should get an email for the post-interview survey that has an End of Day checklist, it will list the interviewer emails and says you can directly send thank-you notes to them.

 

[SeaMonster]

This is so going to sound neurotic, but did everyone receive a pretty generic response to their thank you emails? ie some other stuff + "I wish you the best in your interview/application process?"

what else are they supposed to say?

Yes, very generic response and I was accepted

 

[VINILOVER123]

Thank you notes don’t have any weight, wouldn’t worry to pick on a response. Think of your interview and application of being what matters

 

[aishahwjwodj]

I read through this thread already and it seems like there’s nothing really to do post A until final commitment. Did anyone do anything at all like send back the technical standards admission attestation or something?

 

[ribonucleoprotein]

+1 OOS II

 

[w0ndermed25]

+1 OOS II

LM and complete date? Congrats!!

 

[ribonucleoprotein]

LM and complete date? Congrats!!

70 and late july!

 

[aishahwjwodj]

Been trying to figure this out as well. I don’t think we have to do anything? Where is the technical standards attestation not sure if I already did it when I got my email.

I downloaded it from the vitals portal and they listed an email your supposed to send it to, but the wording of the blurb before it makes me feel like you only do it if you decide you’re for sure attending

 

[VINILOVER123]

Anyone can give some insights of the interviews. Like is it open file and how long, standard questions or conversational type vibe?

 

[VINILOVER123]

Anyone know if we can send update post interview,

 

[SeaMonster]

For OOS students, how long did it take for the stuff in the mail to arrive after interviewing?

 

[ribonucleoprotein]

what do they send?

 

[efficientnet_b0]

A bit less than a month later for me

what do they send?

Stickers, info packet thingy, pen, reminder of when to check portal for decision

I filled out and emailed the form back to them, not sure when we were supposed to do it but I didn’t really see any deadlines except for like next spring

[MasterOogway]

LM ~78 here mid July. also waiting on an update 🙃

 

[SeaMonster]

It’s about a two week turn around for a decision but they’re rolling admissions so you’ll have to check every 2 weeks if you get deferred. They tell you when you should hear back

 

[VINILOVER123]

They actually give u a date exactly when you will here back.

 

[ribonucleoprotein]

They actually give u a date exactly when you will here back.

other schools should do this too lol the amount of neuroticism that would be decreased

 

[SueMed]

70 and late july!

Congratulations! Was it by email?

 

[SeaMonster]

Also, about how long was everyone’s interview? I know it’s a 45 min slot but did everybody take the full time?

 

[efficientnet_b0]

For me it was probably different since I interviewed early, so I heard back a bit more than a month later on October 16

do decisions only show in the portal? Or do they send an email as well?

I got a call and email too, after the portal update.

Also, about how long was everyone’s interview? I know it’s a 45 min slot but did everybody take the full time?

Don’t completely remember but I don't think mine took the whole time, since I didn’t have that many questions for them.

 

[bnb03]

When should I be worried about not receiving an interview? I am an IS applicant with an LM of ~75.

I wouldn’t worry. They don’t stop interviewing until the end of March I believe. I spoke with a student who got the absolute last interview date and still got an acceptance!

 

[wantedmd10]

What time do decisions usually come out? Mine is coming out tomorrow and I’m super nervous
