After verified, how long until you hear from schools?

Applied 6/13, verified 7/8. I’ve heard from many of the schools I chose, but roughly 8 have not emailed yet.

At what point (generally) should all the schools be in touch? And at what point (x amount of weeks) would this be a an indication that they’ve screened out my application?

About two weeks to eight months.

Two minutes to about eight months

Schools stratify the apps as they come in and don't send out secondaries or IIs merely in chronological order.

Secondaries are often a tax on the hopelessly naïve, if not pathologically optimistic.

Two weeks? I received one of my secondaries 15 minutes after my primary was sent to a school! 😉

And if you were prepared to wait two weeks I’m sure you were pleasantly surprised.

One person was complaining today that they were verified at 8 AM and had 9+ secondaries by noon. You will get absolutely flooded if you apply to non-screening schools and are verified more than a week after transmission date.
