Members don't see this ad.

Once again, I'm an M4 at Pitt. If you have something worthy of an update be sure to send it!!!!!! It may get some eyes on your app!!!! (I sent a letter of interest today and got a residency interview out of it. Just letting y'all know the residency application process is very similar to what you are doing now.)

As far as thinking you are out of the running for an interview by not hearing back by now, that is incorrect. I did not get my interview invite until 10/31 of my cycle and I scheduled a 12/1 interview. We interview until some point in January so I think y'all are reading way too much into things. Pitt gets over 10 thousand applications a year and it takes time to sort through them all. I have no idea how they sort or if they go in order but I promise if you haven't gotten an R, you are still in the fight.

I won't be a physician until May but I'm officially prescribing y'all some chill pills.

I really really appreciate this. people make it seem like for Pitt particularly, not getting a II by now is a death notice. this helps so much 🙂

Where do you send an update?

Where do you send an update?

From Pitt's website verbatim:

• When is it an appropriate time for me to follow-up with the UPSOM?
  Our Admissions Committee welcomes letters of intent/interest and updates to your application. The most appropriate time to follow-up with us is following your interview or after the receipt of your official admissions decision. Communications can be sent via postal mail or to our admissions mailbox at [email protected]. Any communication received from the applicant will be included in their admissions file within 24 – 48 hours upon receipt. Applicants can check the admissions portal to confirm that their documents were added to their application.

Best of luck!

[stew_md]

Just got the OFFICIAL R email after knowing I was rejected for almost a month via the portal, 🤣.

 

[lean.idler]

wait, so is the reason all the Rs appear to be delayed this year literally just because they're not emailing people as they're going out

Perhaps. It looks like some people got the R email for the first couple R waves, and others did not.

lol at this point they can keep the email. If I get the email like in a few weeks it’ll feel like a second rejection

I actually just got the email after seeing it on my portal 10 mins beforehand. So maybe it was delayed or something for others. Still super heartbreaking

lol it’s pretty clear that it’s a rejection and it’s under “application status.” There won’t be any confusion

 

[Childof_d_WayMaker]

I just wanted to comment that my application was completed on 10/02, and I got an II on 10/10 (which was shocking) to encourage others waiting that there is still hope. I am entirely trusting in God in this process.

 

[robot_soup]

Do they notify you of who your interviewer is ahead of time?

 

[ClashRoyaleKing]

I interviewed here in early September! I was so surprised to have received an interview here with my low research and productivity lol.
