I'm not sure if there's already a thread like this but this is for all the July 5th mail out applicants to post about stats, receiving confirmation emails, supplemental applications, interviews, acceptances, and whatever else might be helpful to the sdn community and those in the same batch as you. Ill start it off.

2nd batch mail out is tomorrow so I'd expect a few confirmation emails and supplemental applications for all of us pretty soon.
 
Does AADSAS notify you in advance of when your app will be mailed? My GPA was verified on Monday the 1st, but so far it says "pending" next to all my schools.
EDIT: nevermind. I was only checking AADSAS mobile. On the actual website, it says mailing date scheduled for 7/5/13.

So far I have heard back from UNLV stating they received my application from AADSAS (I'm assuming the electronic version since they aren't mailing mine out until tomorrow).

I think AADSAS has problems with coordinating between the normal portal and the mobile portal. Last cycle December 1st was on a Saturday so it was announced that acceptances wouldn't go out until Monday morning on the 3rd. But then it turned out that the mobile portal was self-updating and showing everyone their acceptances on the 1st and it took AADSAS a few hours to realize and hide the decisions until the 3rd.

14 schools. Received Supplementals from Louisville, MWU-IL, Boston.

I wonder if we should make a tiny chat url, just so there's a space for us to hang out and talk. Let me know if y'all are down.

Good luck guys! I'm so scared and excited!

Sorry if I'm asking you bluntly, how are you a reapplicant with those amazing stats 😕

Lol I get that a lot. I wish I knew. I applied broadly last cycle too but I was invited for only 3 interviews. Hopefully this cycle is lucky for both of us!
 
have you folks all had the LOR in place, which was sent with the application???

Mine was received already. I had it electronically submitted by my school's committee.

I'm second batch. If i haven't already gotten a secondary from MWU, or any other schools, does that mean I'm out of the running there?

Your app was sent out TODAY. Today is Friday. Day before the weekend. The admissions committee are humans too you know. They didn't get to all the apps that were sent to them. Relax and go to that sacred place called "outside".

Haha yes. Thanks, ill give "outside" a go😉. Im only concerned because i see that some people on here, whose apps were also sent today, already received secondaries/verifications from schools i also applied to.
 
Any second batchers receive interview invitations yet?

Did you get a supplemental invitation from San Antonio before you received the email for the interview?

shiftparadigm, as a CA resident (me too), congrats on getting San Antonio invite, im guessing your DAT score stood out, its super difficult to get an interview as OOS student.

I never had to fill out a supplement at all for San Antonio. I don't think there is one, but someone correct me if I'm wrong. As a side note, I applied to the Texas schools through TMDSAS, although I don't think it really makes a huge difference.

Haha thank you. I was a little hesitant to even spend the money applying to the Texas schools, knowing that they don't take a lot of OOS people, but I guess it paid off 🙂

So far I have heard back from UNLV stating they received my application from AADSAS (I'm assuming the electronic version since they aren't mailing mine out until tomorrow).

Does AADSAS then send a full-electronic and a paper version to each school that we've applied to?
 
Yes, I am under the impression they send both and the school decides whether to look at the electronic version or the hardcopy...I could be wrong though
 
Received an interview invite from Nova earlier today!
 
Yay! Congrats!

Yea...congratulations!! That's kinda early for being in the 2nd batch 👍 When is your interview? 🙂

Thanks guys! I scheduled mine for September 18th. I think there was some confusion regarding their supplemental app. I submitted mine right after submitting my AADSAS app. I think that's what got me reviewed earlier.
 
Second batch here as well. CA resident, first time non-traditional applicant.

I haven't posted on this thread, but I was also mailed out in the second batch (07/05).

NC resident
Applied to 25 schools
Two interviews so far from Nova and LECOM
Stats are in the signature.

The only schools I have not heard ANYTHING from are MOSDOH, USC, and UNC. However, from past cycles, USC starts reviewing late and UNC doesn't send a confirmation email before inviting for an interview (usually 3 weeks before interview). And I assume MOSDOH is still waiting on initial accreditation. So it seems like all of the schools are doing good about keeping applicants informed. Good luck second batchers!

NC resident here too! Have you heard anything from ECU or just the generic confirmation?

Cool. I actually haven't had the "under review" email from ECU, but I did get the generic aadsas received/supplemental email. I submitted the supplemental on July 5th and got a "thank you for your payment" email. That is the last I have heard from ECU. From last year though, they should send another email that says "requirements met" and that the app is being reviewed.

Yeah I haven't gotten that one either. Unfortunately I am a reapplicant as well, couldn't remember if there was an under review email too. I still haven't gotten a rejection from the waitlist w/ ecu... which I'm sure is the case by now lol. When did you get your interview last year? I didn't hear until mid Sept. bc of my DAT retake.

I think I got mine mid sept. too for a november interview.
 
ain't no love in the heart of the city since hearing from LECOM a few weeks back. How's everyone else doing here?

No love here either. Got Nova and LECOM a while back and nothing besides a few "app complete" emails since then.
 
same. invite to nova. LECOM seems to be behind in app processing which is weird because some 4th batchers have had invites, yet some 2nd/1st batchers still have their portals empty. But nothing else as yet besides app complete form others.

what date are you nova invitees going for?

keep in touch guys! =)

I have Nova on September 18th. My LECOM portal is still telling me to do the supplemental even though I've already submitted it and paid. I somehow received an interview invite and still don't have access to anything in the portal. It's a new school so the glitches are expected.

+1 to that! Keep this thread alive people!

I am confused... I am a second batcher too... What portals are you guys talking about? I had a supplement to Lecom too amongst others... Where do I check?
