[CurledAlarmist]

got my regular cwru md ii today, am i still considered for cclcm?

Why would you not be? Did they say something? You submitted two different applications. One to Case and the 2nd to cleveland so I don't see why getting an ii or even an acceptance from one would impact the other when they don't share a system

 

[Neuro4321]

OOS II received 8/24. LM 78, complete 7/16

late response but, at least for me it was very nice and chill, most of the questions were based on my application.

 

[chummyplum]

Does anyone know if they contact PIs of all interviewees or just those that they’re accepting/waitlisting

 

[C3H7NO3]

only those they are accepting/waitlisting. did your PI get called

 

[Neuro4321]

not OP but my PI was contacted via email ~5 weeks ago, he said their questions were mostly related to career goals in research. Hoping this is a good sign!

 

[ChungO.o?]

Pretty sure they contact every PI to get a better idea on applicants' career goals in research. But still, hopefully it is a good sign for those whose PI got contacted!

Interviewed on like 9/28 and my PI was not contacted

 

[njdevilsfan1]

Interviewed last thursday, my PI got contacted last friday

 

[bencal30000]

Does anyone know when the earliest decisions will come out? Is it late November/early December?

 

[soccerguy101]

how is the group activity? is it an mmi format?

 

[Johnnydrama]

Pre-Il rejection, IS super strong ties LM 69 sucks, I really wanted the opportunity just to get an Il here and show what it meant to me, but I think my MCAT shot me in the foot

 

[helpmegetthroughthis]

Did your PI tell you they got contacted? Or did you ask them?

 

[realcoffeebean]

Does anyone know when the earliest decisions will come out? Is it late November/early December?

From my understanding, I was told during interview day that decisions would come out from November to January. If you interviewed before November, your application would be considered in November. If you hear back from them in November, it's either an A or R, but if not, your application will be pushed to the December pile, kinda as a "waitlist," and then to the January pile if you still don't hear back then. Regardless of when you interview, in essence, you could hear back as soon as the following month until January.

The process of finding out if you matriculated is a little confusing because CCLCM has to be super intentional about who they hand out As to, since they can only provide exactly 32 full-tuition scholarships.

If I'm mistaken about anything, please correct me anyone

that was my understanding as well, and I think they said they do all decisions on 1 day in each of those months. so basically 3 days total of decisions, then after Jan it's just movement off the waitlist.

 

[lalalalala222]

do we think any decisions will be sent out this week?👀

 

[lalalalala222]

+ IS A!

was it an email or phone call? and CONGRATS!

 

[soccerguy101]

Wow when did u interview?

 

[lalalalala222]

Did the call come from an interviewer or adcom?

 

[helpmegetthroughthis]

I sent an update letter maybe like a month after my interview, and submitted a letter of interest including some additional updates a few weeks after that. But i forget if they said they like letters of interest/intent.

Congratulations!! Also out if curiosity, did you interview at the 4 year program as well??

 

[bencal30000]

Do we think more will come tonight or are this month’s As done?

 

[realcoffeebean]

Also curious about this! Only 1 person on Admit, and here, only @medapplicant934834 (HUGE CONGRATS!!!) has reported an acceptance

 

[soccerguy101]

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had the name of the facilitator of the interview. She had worked in admissions at CCLCM for 30 years.

 

[mountsinaipleaseadmitme]

OOS II! booked out to January so i was surprised to see that they’re still sending IIs but i’m not complaining.

Survived the wave of Rs today but nothing else 😢

 

[nontradmedic95]

[morak]

OOS R, I completely understand that I might be too cool for this school and that's ok

 

[bingo11]

+1 OOS II !! So excited!

 

[agrarianleper64]

To those who interviewed recently, when did they say the next acceptances would be sent out?

 

[helpmegetthroughthis]

I think someone just posted an accept on admit?

 

[helpmegetthroughthis]

Yeah there’s 3 now
Do they fill all 32 in Dec? Or do they fill some in Jan and Feb as well?
