Does anyone know when fsu will be letting the interviewees know when they got in? Will it be tomorrow by phone?

I called FSU today and was told that they will be sending out letters next week.

Congrats to everyone accepted to Florida schools!

MrBurns10 · Oct 15, 2005

Question for Miamiers (Miamians? Miamites?): When you respond to the e-mail and write the letter, what are you going to say? Is it just "I gratefully accept your offer of admission, etc. etc."? Anything else we need to mention?

Thanks! Congrats to everyone, and continued good luck!

Well if that isn't the worst news I've heard all week I don't know what is.

Clearly, I ain't gotten no phone call.

I'm bummed too. 🙁 They did say they give out a limited number of acceptances this early and will send a larger batch out before christmas as our "christmas gift". This is what happened to a friend of mine last year. He interviewed early and then did not hear back for two months or so....

Anyone new heard from UF since the few calls this morning?

A good friend of mine had the same thing happen to her as well. She was put on hold on Oct 15th, and officially accepted in December.

She is an MS I there now, and her sister is doing residency there and just graduated in 2005 from the medicals school. Its kinda awesome for her, cuz she has someone who just graduated from the medical school mentoring her.

I said thank you for the offer and that I would like to reserve my spot in the class of 2010. I also said that I will be sending a letter in the mail to them per their request.

I got a reply back from Hinkley saying that they will be looking for the letter in the mail, so just make sure you mail them a letter too saying how you are accepting their offer 🙂

yrodri15 · Oct 15, 2005

Im gonna drop by the office on my way to research lol. Say something "urban" along the lines of:
"What-up Hinkley, thanks for representin'. [then shout something mature like...] Lets go Canes! [then awkwardly hold up my hand for a high-five]."

I would love to see his reaction :laugh:

Its good that he has a sense of humor hehe.

Congrats Florida people!! I'm really happy for everyone... I'm in next week's batch, so keeping my fingers crossed, but...

Went to check out UM-FAU today, and that place is INCREDIBLE. Facilities are the best I've seen, people seem cool... I have no idea why they don't sell that place six ways from Sunday, because I was going mostly just out of curiosity, and I was far more impressed than I thought I would have been. Something to consider for admitees and applicants alike.

Shhh, caveman, you aren't supposed to tell everyone! 😉

And speaking of Miami, congrats to yrodri15 and MrBurns10. :clap:

unfrozencaveman · Oct 16, 2005

Hehh.... Q, I got home and felt bad for FAU. Someone has to give those guys their props.

Tre Cool · Oct 16, 2005

hehe...i haven't gotten to writing the email yet to UM cuz i've been busy celebrating 🙂 good tips MrBurns10 and flgirl81.

UM said they were probably starting to give out OOS interviews next week.

Does UM give interview invites via email or snail mail?

Also: can you guys that interviewed there briefly describe your experience and impressions.. I am interested in this school

Thanks!

They might give something additional in the mail, not sure, but when my friend (an MS II there) interviewed, she was contacted through email. She was also notified of her acceptance through an email.

They do both. You will get an email first, then a packet in the mail with more information.

If you haven't already, you should check the interview feedback for Miami. Several people have posted feedback from this year already. Good luck to you. 🙂

So did anyone hear anything from the Florida schools yet????

UF puts a lot of people on hold. I believe they take a certain amount in December, but they still keep another significant number on hold until later on.

Hey congrats! I am hoping to hear from Rel tomorrow morning with some good news myself... 😉

ABC321 · Oct 19, 2005

Did anyone get accepted to UF without getting a phone call? Just plain snail mail?

Tre Cool · Oct 19, 2005

is the UM statustrack page working for anyone? i keep getting the message "This page wil become active after the October 15th deadline has passed."

Yeah, it's currently down at the moment. It should be up and running soon, hopefully.

I just heard from USF! Mr. Larkin is such a nice guy. DrMike and unfrozencavememan and anyone else who is slated to hear from one of the FL schools today, I hope you all hear good news today! Definitely keep us posted. Good luck everyone!

DrMike24 · Oct 19, 2005

Hey MrBurns, congrats! I got in too. He is great, he gives USF such a great representation, image...

I think I'm going to call UF at some point...I still haven't heard anything from them. And it's been a looooong time. Kind of strange, but my friend's in the same boat.

Yea I was wondering the same question, it appears like I will be put on hold in UF. NooooOOOOOo Purgatory!!! lol...

1SwtWrld · Oct 19, 2005

Anyone who interviewed at Miami on 9/30 hear from Dr. Hinkley today? I thought that he said he would contact us on the 19th. 😕

Kleintje · Oct 19, 2005

I interviewed at UM on 10/14, and Dr Hinkley said he would notify us in the evening after the committee meet or the next morning. I am assuming this may be the case for you as well, seeing as today is Wed. I would wait until tomorrow by lunch time before starting to worry. I hope this helps 🙂

Did he say the committee meets on tuesdays or wendsdays? I thought it was Tue.

unfrozencaveman · Oct 19, 2005

I'm waiting too. Good times.

Mike4284m · Oct 19, 2005

Hey, at least you're not waiting to get an interview 😛

I am pretty sure he said Wed. b/c he said if we did not hear wed night, he something come up after the committee meeting and would let us know the following morning.

Good Luck!

I interviewed on 10/7 and he said that he was going to email us after the comittee meeting that would take place the afternoon of oct 19. He said he would email us between 6 and 9 pm... so far no email (getting anxious) 😕

So it's time to give up on this for the night you think?

yup, I have pretty much given up on it tonight.... 🙁

If I have nothing in my box by tomorrow afternoon I'll send an email to Hinkley. I have a friend who interviewed a week before me and she never got anything either. 😕

unfrozencaveman · Oct 19, 2005

Yeah- I was 9/30 too, we were told we would receive an email around 6. Eh, things happen. Hopefully it'll be tomorrow.

Are you on the ranked list for an interview?? I am....

I am wondering if OOS applicants have started interviewing yet.

Mike4284m · Oct 20, 2005

Yeah I have been for awile now. They told me they were starting to give out OOS invites this week. Hopefully some of us hear something soon.

Congratulations, Mike!! That's awesome. I haven't yet heard of a single person who's visited UM and hasn't liked it. It seems like a really great place. So congrats, and goodluck unfrozencaveman!
