Drexel DPMS 2017-2018
Started by MedicineN'Jazz
I haven't received any feedback on my application but I did reach out to the Associate Director of grad admissions and he said "They are nearing the time to release admission decisions regarding this program. The Graduate Admissions Office does not sit on the DPMS admission committee, but we do believe the DPMS admissions committee will be finalizing their admissions decisions and releasing those decisions to DPMS applicants shortly". Good luck to those of you who have interviewed!
Anybody else still waiting to hear back?

Oh yeah I saw that
We were told on the 18th that it would be after Memorial Day during the first week of June. After they meet after the last interview date, which should be May 25 th.
That sounds cruel! Why would they wait so late? They told us during our interview they are trying to get away from sending the acceptances so late because it was hectic last year. The program starts on June 19th. Argh!
They said there was going to be hopefully two rounds of acceptances. Hopefully they meant the second round of acceptances would be after Memorial Day for the current batch of interviews while the first batch of interviews acceptances is this week.

I know right. We shall see what they do. It would be much more convenient to know earlier than June if you have to move to another state but that has happened in the past
Well I hope it's good news for all of us!
What a mess
Anyone gotten a rejection yet?
Luckily no. Hopefully some correspondence will be sent by the end of the week.
Just realized that on this day last year, people got their acceptances.
Have you still not heard anything?

Lol! My bad. But you may be better off waiting this Friday the 26th. Because last year, decisions went out after the last interview day (or at least what was initially the last interview day before June 2nd)

Haha so have I !
In my interview we were told that last year got their decisions earlier than usual so I wouldn't compare to them :/
Nope
in my interview they said hey wanted to avoid what happened last year, which they told us was late acceptances.
Rofl well who knows then. Our session had to be led by Lee Hill since the person who was supposed to be leading it had teaching duties. So maybe all the info we got on my day was wrong
Should I contact the office if I have yet to hear anything?? Anyone else in the same boat?

So you guys have also not heard back anything? Like I mean at all, not even an interview invite.
Or rejection for that matter...correct
Did you end up calling?

Okay, this is how I feel everything will play out. Committee meets tomorrow and make their decision (1st acceptances or rejections), Monday is memorial day so nothing will be done, Tuesday or Wednesday, the first acceptances or rejections shows up on the portals, Thursday or Friday (June 2nd) emails will be sent out.
I'm 99% sure they'll send out decisions tomorrow 😳
I can't really explain why, but it's just a feeling I have
So I broke first guys and ended up calling the admissions office. The guy I talked to said they had a meeting yesterday and that decision could be as soon as later today or tomorrow but wasn't 100%. All he knew was they had a meeting yesterday. He said an email should be sent out. I didn't press for more info because I felt like it would annoy him.

Knew it!
So Friday, Tuesday, or Wednesday is when we should hear.
I would think so since today was the last day of interview dates.
When did ur friend interview? And congrats to her!
wait, why did they call and not send an email or update the portal instead?
I thought that's how people find out. If not, I may have to update my contact info 'cause mY phone number's changed lol
D
DaisyJane
Well if they can't get you through the phone, they will email
Yeah that's what I hope
They interviewed on 5/8
I asked if there was an update on their portal, but there wasn't any. I'm not sure if an email was sent out as well, but apparently they give you a call.
That's really odd. Hmm, ok
