Any DO schools pass out hard rejects yet? ( read at own risk if this becomes a thread)

Hi everyone,
We all know some MD schools go for the hard reject, while others go for the silent reject. I'm assuming the same can be said for DO schools.

Are there any DO schools that we know have passed out hard R's? I applied to PCOM,UNECOM,NYITCOM,RowanSOM, and LECOM and was complete by end Sept. so I'm pretty sure it's just way too early, but I'm wondering if I should expect an R from these schools if I don't get an II? Instead of just waitinggggg and wondering if it is a silent reject.

There was a thread/list like this on the MD thread, and so I'm trying to make a similar version here, if that's okay.

Edit: I should specify I'm more wondering what school sent out pre II R's, but any R's at all is also relevant.

UIWSOM has rejected a few, but accepted or waitlisted more post-interview

 

[drstranger]

Midwestern AZ COM has sent out Pre II R's

Pretty sure LECOM silently rejects so you may not ever receive a hard R from them.

To add to that list above, I can speak from experience that Western U (both OR and CA), Touro California, ICOM and KCOM also hard R.

 

[deleted936470]

UP-KYCOM will hard R at the end of the cycle only. lol

I was scared to apply to RVU for this reason haha

 

[fusionnoble]

I got a hard R via snail mail for NSU KPCOM. Other than that, the list looks pretty accurate to me 🙁

RVU?! haha

 

[deleted936470]

ARCOM likes do to both depending on the what phase of the cycle you are in, they tend to silently reject pre-secondary.

I ...think you mean " lean feat"?
And ...wow. I mean, I prefer outright reject pre II than being left waiting.

You won't believe- I got an email from PCOM admissions today - andddd....it was an advert " Associate Director of Admissions recognized in diversity campaign" or some crap. What the ****kk that should be illegal.

Yeah seriously. I got an email from "LECOM admissions." I had a mini heart attack until I read that it was an ad for their MBSE program.

I'll just consider that my rejection letter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well! I wouldn't consider it that. I think those adverts are sent out automatically w/o regard for what somebody's admission status in ( I've heard of people who already have an acceptance/ II still getting adverts from the school). Ntm a lot of the adds are for stuff convincing you to apply, meaning it has no idea you already applied. I just hate that it gets me excited.

 

[deleted936470]

VCOM tends to give zero correspondence to applicants they reject until the end of the cycle, similar to UP-KYCOM, but some people have reported never receiving a rejection letter at all.

 

[drducky.]

Pnwu sent me a letter in the mail saying I was rejected (pre II too). Thats about as hard as it gets.

 

[Scienceolympian]

PNWU and AZCOM both sent rejections after secondaries

 

[deleted936470]

CUSOM - hard Rs have been sent out.

The worst is a hard R and then an email about their master's or podiatry program a week later. With the podiatry program saying "become a doctor, apply to our podiatry program today!!!"

Also fun in reverse. Getting the freakin’ program letter before the rejection.

 

[shellgraham]

BCOM is a hard R as well!

[futurexray]

PCOM does NOT send out rejection letters until the cycle is over. Rejections only are sent out after interviews if you did not make it.

 

[TragicalDrFaust]

Got a hard R from CUSOM after sending in the primary.
Got a hard R from PNWU after sending in my secondary.
I guess I should be grateful for my waitlist to interview from AZCOM!

Your username is so funny
I haven't heard a single thing ! Trying to think " no news is good news " rn but since all the DO schools I've applied to do silent R's things are a little iffy now. ( except Rowan, they do hard R's pre II according to this thread and others).
