+1 Pre II rejection after being put on hold

Is it worth sending a pre-II letter of interest if I was placed on hold? Seems like I survived the rejection wave on Friday...

They are pretty open to update letters, plan something to say that you haven't said already in your apps and keep it short

Was going to ask something similar. Thank you, Wysdoc!
 
Has anyone with a pre-II hold receive an interview?

Based on what I recall last year. Most folks are put on hold at some point and then each month they send a few more II and reject more. Some folks will be on hold into the new year and might finally get an R or II
 
Does anybody know when the next decisions are expected?
 
Does anyone know how often decision are sent out post-ii? I know it says up to 8 weeks (interviewed 4-5 weeks ago), but based on Admit and Cycletrack it doesn't look like they've sent anything out since October 15th.
 
I just checked my portal to this message:

Your application to The George Washington University School of Medicine & Health Sciences is complete and has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee. To date, no final decision has been made and the Admissions Committee has placed your application on hold for re-review at a later date. Files are re-reviewed by the committee periodically and there is no set schedule for decisions. We do interview from August through March. Please feel free to update your file during this time using the GW Admissions Portal. If we require any further documentation or if your status changes, we will contact you immediately. We do sincerely appreciate your interest in our program. Thank you for your patience.


I never got an email. Do they usually email for holds?

No they don’t usually email, I noticed this on my portal months ago without email as well

I seemed to have survived another day.
 
It's been over 8 weeks since I've interviewed, I wonder what the holdup is
