Of course not I more or less just wanted to know if there are other cases where this happens and they get a post interview acceptance or waitlist as oppose to just a rejection.

Do you mind sharing when did you get that application hold for pre-interview status? I got the same update after sending in an update letter too.

This happened to me last year. I called to verify that an additional letter of rec made it through, left a voicemail, never got a response. Then I wrote an email that never got a response.

Still radio silence after I even followed up with them last Thursday. Did they just delete my file or something i havent heard a word after my interview haha
Don't stress about it so much. They probably just haven't been able to meet and discuss your file yet. I waited a couple months before I heard anything

Even after they gave you a deadline and exceeded it? And did you get the A?
Yea I got the A off of the WL but I didn't hear anything for 6 months. From what I've heard, they have committee meetings once a month so they probably just haven't gotten to you.

It’s just tough because they told me they’d have a decision no later than mid April so idk at this point whether tot take it as a good sign or a bad sign you know. What do you think?

I’m still on pre interview hold lolol the R would be less painful at this point

Try not to read into it too much, it doesn’t necessarily mean anything negative since schools sometimes run behind on decisions. I get where you’re coming from, and if you want to be proactive, you could send an update or a letter of interest. I know it’s easier said than done, but try not to stress too much.
I literally just withdrew because at this point, I had no faith they would give me an II. We're in the next app cycle for crying out loud

I know this is me being paranoid af but I will ask anyway. I was supposed to receive my decision by April 15th but there was radio silence. I finally emailed them last thursday to say I am still interested and whatnot and today they finally responded and said "thank you it has been updated on your application" and thats it. Should I just abandon hope at this point?

At this point I would assume it's not working out and start preparing your application for the next cycle. Better to have it prepared and not need it.

Screw it I will hold hope till the very end you never know. I am going to manifest an acceptance I have faith!!

Have faith, but still start prepping your app for next year

Criminals for telling me they'd get back to me april 15th and leave me hanging on a string for over a month then just let me go. If they knew they'd reject me from the beginning then tell me on the deadline you gave me, don't go over a month past it then blindside me.

In terms of the MMS program is there a way to be accepted without being formally invited?

I would reach out to the admissions office and tell them that you were rejected but very interested in the MMS program.

I dropped off the waitlist. Good luck to those of you waiting. I hope they don't keep you in the dark for much longer!
