USUHS. Nothing. Nada. Not even a secondary request. Peace.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got a letter from them today (1/25) stating that I had been withdrawn from consideration as I didn't complete my secondary. Of course it wasn't completed as I never got the request. Another thing (straightening this out) to do Monday. Peace.

 

[uclamendoza]

heard from michigan state in october when i got a secondary from them and now I have an interview with them later next month.....try emailing michigan state or calling them to see what's up with your file.

 

[nero]

Hey All,
I haven't heard anything from 8 schools:
GWU, Cornell, Boston, Tufts, Upenn, Upitt, Northwestern, and WashU. I don't know whether to write these schools off as rejections or keep hoping? I finished most my apps in mid-october.

 

[gogiants]

nothing from one school....tulane. i wouldn't even interview there at this point (as i'd rather stay in state) but why can't they just tell me something.

[Trix]

Haven't heard from:

Harvard
Yale
Columbia
Cornell
NYU, but I just withdrew my app and requested a refund from them for filing my transcripts under a different name, and I am sure they detest me as much as I detest them....

 

[cocoabutter]

DukeBluDevl02,

Have you tried calling Wake Forest? From other threads I have seen that they sent out rejections around the beginning of January...so there might be hope. If you call, they might tell you that you can schedule an interview then. It happened to me, and it can't hurt. They are interviewing until March. I interviewed yesterday (Jan 24), and a girl that was also interviewing said that they called her two days before, on wednesday, so definitely call and see what is going on? Good Luck!

 

[opus03]

Have heard nada from 8 schools(besides that my app is complete)

BU, Tufts, NYMC, AECOM, Mt. Sinai, Loyola, Rush, and UIC

...and the last three are in my state....

 

[tomjr]

Still waiting on Pitt... I really hope I get an interview there. ALso complete in mid october (damn you late recommenders!!)

No news from Harvard, which means rejection... according to some here, they are done interviewing.

As of early January, no news from Einstein or Tufts, but I got tired of waiting and yanked my apps there.

good luck all!

cheers,
Tom

 

[xaelia]

No word from (nor did I expect word from some of these) the following:
Harvard, Penn, Yale, Cornell, Baylor, NYU, Sinai, UVA, USC, Tufts, Wake Forest, Creighton

 

[kiping]

Schools ignoring my existence...
Cornell
Mt. Sinai
UCSF
UCLA
Jefferson, Tufts, Temple

 

[wannabedoc81]

So, Harvard = rejection, huh? Okay...guess Harvard and I just aren't meant to be (I applied for undergrad and got rejected then too)

I also haven't heard from Wash U but I think I'm going to soon chalk that up as a rejection too...C'est la vie

 

[JZZZZZZZs]

Got everyone here beat...I'm waiting to hear from 20 schools still!!!!
Among them...
UCLA, UCI
Albert Einstein
Finch
Emory
Drexel
Loyola
NYMC
Mt.Sinai
U of Vermont
USC
Jefferson

No love from CA, NY and Pennsylvania!
Things do not look too bright for me. Couldn't all of these schools just send us a letter now if they're going to reject us anyway.
Anyone know which schools are known to interview late? (Heard Finch interviews up til May and Drexel til April.)

DukeBluDevil...I just interviewed at MCO this past week. FYI: they interview until April. Hope that helps.

 

[wolferman]

I applied to 22. Still haven't heard from:

Baylor
BU
Temple
Tufts
Drexel
Vermont
(Harvard) = rejection

 

[sleepyhouse]

i still havent heard from: Vermont, Penn, Jefferson, GW, NYMC, Finch, and Temple.

the rejections have been coming in lately though, i got georgetown, BU, Pitt, and Dartmouth all in the past couple weeks.

and i got an interview invite from Drexel back in november, and my interview isnt till march 12, so i dont know if they are still giving interviews at this point

 

[ricegeek]

I haven't heard from Baylor either. I called them early last week, and they said my app was "under review." Do you recommend writing a letter to get their attention?

 

[batman123]

No response from Tufts, Harvard (equals rejection), JHU, Univ. of Washingtion, UMich, Cornell

 

[JM.]

hey sleepy - call drexel, i got an april interview bumped up to feb 13

and i havent gotten word from

Sinai
Einstein
Penn
On -infamous- hold with Penn State

On an interesting note - I got interviewed at Temple before they had sent me a secondary request - weird. Apparently some people with hotmail were not receiving them - so call if you haven't heard.

 

[DukeBluDevl02]

Got the official alumni rejection from Duke... Still waiting on those nine. SurfDevl02, have you had UCSF yet?

 

[banannie]

still nothing from:

BU
Harvard (=rejection)
Penn (=rejection?)
Jefferson
Temple
Columbia
NYU
UCSF

though after finally getting a bunch of rejections, i think that from now on, i won't complain about being ignored. i think i actually am beginning to prefer Harvard & Penn's more passive-aggressive approach: "we aren't rejecting you, we're just not inviting you. . ."

 

[rebaj]

Nothing from:
Cornell, NYU, BU, Jefferson, Tulane. From Temple, I just recieved an e-mail confirming the completion of my application - note that I sent my secondary in August and my letters in September.

I just had an interview invite from Mt Sinai (the letter came last week, the date is late February), so, anyone holding out for them, do not give up hope! They're still calling!

[Medical123]

I have not heard from Vermont, Yale, Drexel, the Ohio schools, NYMC, and several others. The waiting is killing me.

 

[lola]

still waiting on several with some hope:
loyola, tufts, the uc's

lost hope for:
usc, ohsu , harvard, emory, yale

 

[conure]

seems like there are definitley some common schools here.

We all seem to be waiting on:

GW
Loyola
NYU
Columbia
NYMC
Tufts

I would prefer that they don't rush and make decisions to hastily. I take the slowness as a positive sign that they are thouroughly reviewing my applciation as they state.

 

[sperry]

I'm still waiting to hear from:

Penn = rejection
GW
Temple

I'm glad to hear that another in-stater hasn't heard from Temple yet either - thought I was going crazy. If I don't hear from them soon tho' I think I will lose my mind!!

 

[Allygator89]

I just heard from Jefferson last week. They are still doing interviews, however, mine isn't until March.....


Vermont has already done some rejecting, so don't worry quite yet.

 

[abw]

Hey!
Just got a rejection from Jefferson, still waiting to hear from:
finch
gwu
drexel (hold for re-review in spring) <--?????
meharry
nymc
penn state (hold=rejection)
temple
tufts
wright state

does anyone know what a pre-interview hold from drexel means? i feel like they'll have finished interviewing by spring, so why would they put me on hold until then and not reject me?

 

[HouseHead]

I haven't heard from:

Columbia
NYMC
NYU
AECOM (interviewed last year)
SUNY Stony Brook (waitlisted last year)

Don't care much about Columbia and NYMC, but I'm kinda puzzled about the last one. Oh yeah, except that AMCAS MESSED UP MY GPA! AND THEY WON'T FIX IT!!!

[athena21]

FYI about Tufts. A friend of mine last year heard from Tufts at the beginning of April for the end of April. Ended up getting in off the waitlist in July. There's still hope, I spose...good luck!

 

[draino15]

[yaoming]

I applied for 2002-2006 and am now a first year medical student. I still havent heard anything official from Howard since the date they requested a secondary and $40 check from me, and neither has my other friend. Do you think in 5 years when I have my MD, they will invite me for an interview? Maybe I should send them an update letter this summer.

Point of this post: do not apply to Howard.

 

[Mike59]

No word yet from:

Stanford (no word since AMCAS)
These ones are post secondary:
Yale
UIC
Loyola
Baylor

I'm already in so I could care less about those schools. My biggest beef is with Stanford, just because they never even anything to acknowledge that I was alive post-AMCAS (not even a rejection email)!!

There is still time for me to write them a rejection letter, stating that there are so many qualified schools to choose from every year, but I can only choose one seat

[badgergirl]

I'm sad. I've been stuck at the same number of rejection letters for a long time. I was so hoping to frame Stanford's and Wake Forest's, but maybe there's a paper crisis and all that money I sent them last year couldn't help them buy another ream of paper...

 

[Buck Wild]

aight, here's my sad story:

haven't had an interview yet and am slowly losing hope. i'm already making alternate plans, but still have a couple schools left. i guess if i were to go to med school, these would be my best shots.

Tufts
NYMC
Finch
Loyola
Rush

i hear tufts is behind, but does anyone know what is up with the others?

 

[NM_grrl]

No word, post-secondary, from Tufts and George Washington, and nothing pre-secondary from UCLA! It's been so many months! I'm thinking of withdrawing my application from these schools just out of resentment.

 

[nygirl6464]

haven't heard post-2ndary:
gw
tufts
loyola
usc
loma linda
penn state
jefferson
uc's

 

[aquaboy]

I haven't heard back from

Creighton
NYMC
Drexel
Baylor
USC

all but 1 are unranked schools

I have heard from

UVa
SLU
Ohio State
Albert Einstein
MCW
Utah


4 of the above are ranked schools
Do unranked schools hate me????????????

 

[e-spin]

Sounds like a lot of people are still waiting on:
Temple
Tufts
NYMC...Like me

Also , yet to hear from SLU, Albany, Buffalo

Is there still hope, or should I just expect the rejection to come any day???!!!
