2024-2025 Western University of Health Sciences (Pomona, California)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Someone in the Oregon thread said that he spoke to someone and they said it’s not a rejection and that we will likely get an interview later on in the cycle.

it sounds like the "application review complete" email got sent out in waves. now thats its a day later is there anyone that never received the "app review complete" email?

I imagine people without complete applications wouldnt have received the email. Anyone that has verified their app is complete (all green check marks in the portal) not get an email?

Everyone received this like" You have not yet been selected for an interview, but please rest assured that we will notify you if you are among those selected going forward, or if there is a change in your application status." right?
I think maybe the interview does not started yet.
 
Mcat: 505 (124/131/124/126)
CGPA: 3.51

Clinical volunteer hours: 4000 (firefighter/emt in my rural community Covid-present)

Very impressive cars I'm 515 (132,123,130,130) GPA 3.83 with a PhD how did you do your CARS?

I honestly have no idea how I got the 131 on CARS and how my CP and BB scores dropped. I was at 127 for cars on FL and ~126-127 on BB and CP.

My only strategy was to read the title and make a guess as to what the passage was about. Then, I summarized each paragraph after I read it and reevaluated what the passage was about, updating it after each paragraph. I also didn't change a single answer; gut answers only for CARS

sounds promising. most people got a different email stating "You have not yet been selected for an interview, but please rest assured that we will notify you if you are among those selected going forward, or if there is a change in your application status. "

congrats!

Thats more like a soft interview. The other email was a soft rejection.

Yes this thread is for 2024-2025. Meaning accepted students would start in the Fall of 2025. Interviews usually start around August/September the year prior to matriculation.

Got the same email this morning as well. I believe it is indeed a soft interview.

Sorry, I'm not sure. Can you check the 2023-2024 thread? They probably will know in that thread.

Submitted my secondary on July 7th, but my letter of references were still pending even though I had a committee letter. Letters were marked as complete just yesterday on the portal.

Interesting.

Here is my tinfoil hat theory:

People that received the new nicer email are new submissions— or at least newly compete apps. I wonder if they changed the auto email to be nicer because a lot of applicants freaked out at the other one 😂

That’s what I was thinking too
 
Is anyone having issues getting their letters uploaded to Western's secondary portal? I have my letters on AACOMAS and the LiasonCAS rep said they're uploaded to Western, but my app technically isnt complete yet :/

Your portal will list your lors as awaiting until someone at western manually verifies them. It took ~2 weeks for my letters to be marked as received in the western portal
 
Hi guys.

For those of us who got the (more concerningly worded email), i have an update.

I emailed my admissions counselor regarding my status and this is what she said: "Thank you for your email. Interviews have not begun yet, please do not be discouraged. Your application was reviewed by the committee, and you are now awaiting an invitation to interview. Since our interviews are conducted over 6-8 months, you may be invited at any time during the interview cycle. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns."

Sounds like it is not a bad thing 🙂

Thank you for sharing! Sounds hopeful. So I'm guessing receiving that email is actually a positive indication?

To me it sounds good/neutral. Like, our application has been processed / ranked / read and if we are to get an interview then they will reach out accordingly.
 
any one still waitlisted for entering Aug 2024 Class 2028 as of today July 22, 2024?

2 weeks from when Western COMP sent the secondary, or 2 weeks from when you submitted your secondary?
 
Does anyone know if they still have the longitudinal tracks incorporated into the curriculum?
 
I submitted my secondary a couple days ago and checked now - there is an x beside my LoRs for physician and science professor even though I uploaded those letters through AACOMAS. Does anyone know if I need to do anything here?

It takes a couple of weeks for them to go through them
