EDIT: Day of orientation I was moved to A instead of APS. I'll miss the idea of being in the class of '30, but DM me if you have any questions!

Well, I think the odds are looking like I'll be joining the class of 2030 but I'll know sometime next week for certain. 😀 Either way, excited for everyone applying this coming cycle and looking forward to meeting a lot of you! And who sets up the official GroupMe threads for each accepted class?

Does anyone know how strict Noorda's character reference is? I only have physician, teachers, and a research PI letter of rec, some of my letters I guess briefly touch on my "character" but not sure if it qualifies...

I just logged on to ask the same question😅. Its hard not knowing what exactly my writers talked about, but I think I'm going to go with a teacher who knew me across many different situations/roles

The admin for my clinical letter mistakenly listed it as a research letter. I spoke with the admissions office about it when I found out and they said, "I just read over it and they have some mentions of the work you did clinically, so you're fine!" (the role I had for that role was a dual research/clinic role, thankfully). I would call in and speak with them. They are extremely kind.
 
I just submitted my AACOMAS application today, and I'm trying to manifest good things for everyone! Let's get those AAAAAAAs!
 
did anyone not get their secondary application video/photo checked off even though they submitted?
I uploaded my secondary video last week and i still don't have that checked off on my application checklist...

I'm in the same boat!
 
submitted primary 6/18 and still waiting on secondary, do they send pre-secondary rejection emails?
 
OOS II just now. How do people feel about choosing a virtual interview over in-person?

I did virtual. Wallet is running dry, and there are some schools I am hopeful for that require in-person interviews.
 
are they selective with who they send a secondary? it is a high secondary to interview?
 
8/25 interviewers – has anyone heard back?
No, and I’m slightly freaking out because my interviewer told me that they did an interview on 8/25 and 8/29 and the acom meets the following Wednesday, and then sends out acceptances within the next week. So that should be any day, right? So I’ve been looking in the mail and checking my phone constantly the last two days.

How are you holding up? 😂

Ughhh yeah same. Every time I get a buzz on my phone my heart drops. They said they'd let us know via email in 2 weeks though right? Did I make that up lol?

I don’t remember that but I could easily have missed it. My interviewer said 4 weeks at first, but when I asked later he said what I mentioned. So I have no idea and really wish I hadn’t gotten my hopes up. 😅

How are you holding up
In the 8/29 interview session, they mentioned it would take about 2–3 weeks. Based on what your interviewer told you, it seems they already had the meeting last week, so hopefully we’ll hear something this week.

Emailing admission is a common way
 
Hi everyone who’s been accepted, have you seen your ‘Acceptance & Enrollment’ tab yet?
 
9/4 interviewees, do we think we’re hearing back today?
