Paid fee yesterday and my application is under review.

Have your LORs all been marked as received on the application check list? I paid a few minutes after receiving the link the other day but the loading bar still says "awaiting materials". All of my LORs have been marked as "received" under the references checklist but have not been placed under the application checklist

I’m in the same position and would love to know as well

It took a day for my letters to be verified
 
Still in the "Operations and Applicant Review" on their portal, but I did get a copy/paste message from PCOM on LinkedIn asking if I wanted to know more about their program, etc the usual stuff. My profile has been geared towards engagement from medical schools/physicians/clinical opportunities for a while, and I thought the timing of the message (two days after I paid their fee) might be worth sharing for anyone on here with old LinkedIn accounts that haven't been updated in a minute. I think they're looking 😅
 
My portal says awaiting material or payment. I did pay and they have my LORs but under material it says awaiting.

What does everyone’s portal say? Initial review? And yea both campuses are significantly behind I suppose because last year they sent IIs in July.

You would think the process would be faster due to not having secondaries.
 
Seem to be just waiting? Maybe they just have a new timeline from last year?
 
No IIs. Clearly a much different timeline. Likely waiting until they have a larger stockpile of apps to look into students closer now that they get so many apps.
 
I did an in-person campus tour here at the end of July, and their admissions team said their goal was to begin looking at IIs in the beginning of August, but that they weren't sure. So obviously they're behind that schedule, but I don't think we have any reason to stress on our end atp

btw the tour was great, facilities are nice, the vibe of the school and students was really laid back, yet still driven and super supportive/collaborative. Came away feeling way stoked at the possibility of attending! If you're close to Philly it's worth your time to go for a tour, I met 4 of the people who do interviews and got to chat with them throughout the day which was a great experience.

I went to a tour last week and they said that they would begin interviews in September but did not mentioned when II's would begin to be sent out

Likely the next couple weeks if so.
 
It’s interesting this switch up. I’m guessing they wanted a larger pool to look at for interviews. I am still on the initial review despite it being a while.

Yeah not sure to be honest. Really excited to hear from them soon.
 
I wonder if they had a long cycle last year which is causing a later start this year.

I would rather get an R than another email inviting me to a tour

The Georgia campus is literally sending me one every other day lol. And the campus tour is just 1 hour long. Like who are they expecting to book a flight and spend money for only this?
 
Finally off initial review. Now on faculty committee review.

Same my portal says "Your application is complete and under review with the Faculty Committee on Admissions."

I didn't even realize it changed till I saw your message and checked it.
