It appears there are a number of threads discussing acceptances and rejections for other schools....I would like this thread to be for those of us waiting to hear from Howard post-interview or those who have heard from them already.
If you have been accepted or rejected post-interview, please post so we can know what's going on.
I'll post the outcome of my review as soon as I hear from them.

Sure...I interviewed the week of 10/4 and have not heard anything yet (I think it is still early).

ellgh1 - when did you interview?

Hey GujjuNo1, I interviewd on 10/4 too. I must have talked to you then. It was a really friendly bunch of interviewees. let's keep our fingers crossed

Thanks - You know that they are meeting today, right? And I think today they are looking at the week of 10/4.

I predict....you get a call today from Ms. Walk at 4:13 PM.

(yeah....my fingers are crossed!!! - I really liked the school and would love to have the opportunity to go there)

Hey Gujju, I hope we both hear some good news from Howard soon. I have been checking my mailbox and email like crazy...first thing I do when I wake up at 6am is check the email as if someone would be emailing me that early.
Does Howard call to offer acceptance it's via mail or email?

Don't know for sure. Couple of MS1s told me that they had gotten calls last year. But this year a lot of things have changed so not sure.

Has anyone else heard from them?

Interviewed 9/20. Nothing yet.
 
I interviewed on 10/5. I sent Ms. Walk an e-mail, and she said she hopes to have letters out within the next 10 days and that the Committee had reviewed my application.

Good luck, everybody! I've got my fingers crossed 🙂

They are sending Acceptance letters....I was thinking they were going to call.

Anyways...wannagraduate, don't you wish that you could see if she was smiling or not?

Good Luck To us all....
 
Hey I emailed Ms Walk today...she told me a decision has been made and should expect a formal written notification in about 7 days.....i'm so nervous and anxious.
Hey Gujju, do you know whether it's only acceptances they're sending or they're sending out rejections too?

YES!! That's exactly what I was thinking.
 
Hi

I might have met you on Oct. 5. I am from Texas.
 
Got an e-mail from Ms. Walk yesterday. She said a decision has been made and I should hear in a few days.

Anyone who took the AUG MCAT heard from Howard yet? I mean...like an interview invite.
 
I called...letters were mailed out on Tuesday, I'm sure its by snailmail so it should take a while to arrive.
 
if you receive anything please post

Hi ellgh1 - Congratulations.

Still waiting on my letter but I am becoming a little pessimistic now. (fingers crossed).
 
I do not know what is going on. I email Ms Walk a while ago but never heard from her. I don't even know if i will be invited for interview. Is it too late?

May be you can call her or they are waiting for students to respond to their acceptances.

In any case, I don't think it is too late for any schools (including Howard).
 
Congrats, ellgh1! (I'm hoping it was a positive letter! 🙂 )

Where do you live? (So I can try and gauge when I should check my mailbox.) I've been checking frantically since I read that the letters were mailed out last week. I know, I need to chill, but I just wanna know one way or another after having interviewed over a month ago.

Hey guys thanks.....it is indeed a positive letter=acceptance
I live in Virginia so maybe your letters are still on the way.
hope you all hear some goodnews.

I received an email last week from admissions. The email stated that the adcom was meeting to discuss my app 11/9/05 and I should hear something within 10 days. I interviewed on 10/17. My questions is what size is the envelope?

It's a regular size white envelope....a little heavy
 
Nothing in the mail yet. - I wonder what is going on. This is really stressing me out.

hahaha - i'm beyond stressed now. i'm just getting PO'd. If a decision has been made, just mail it already!! 😡 I really hope they hurry up.... I just wanna know one way or another so I can move on.
 
Can anyone give me Ms. Walk's email address? Thanks
 
I am assuming no one (other than ellgh1) has heard anything yet.

Did any of you guys called and find out when the letters were mailed out? Apparently, not everyone's letters were sent out at the same time (as ellgh1's). I am really not enjoying this wait.
 
Congratulations those who have received an acceptance...i'm going to Howard Med. now so if you have any questions feel free to PM me....
 
Yep, I will be having an especially thankful Thanksgiving. Received good news from Howard.

Is anyone (that interviewed early november) still waiting to hear from Howard?

I interviewed mid-October and am still waiting...
Ms. Walk claimed that "hopefully" a letter would be mailed right after Thanksgiving but some dean was out on leave...blah blah blah. However a decision had been made. It seems like they're just sitting on the decisions. 👎 annoying!

Just to give you a sense of the turn around time, I interviewed Sept 20, and my letter was dated Nov 9th (although I actually got it a couple of weeks later).
 
Hi

Does anyone know the turnaround time to hear from Howard once your application has been complete? thanks.
 
In the beginning of the application cycle, I would say a little over 2 weeks.
 
I was complete around 11/08

Anyone has any idea of turnaround around that time?

😕
 
I was complete since 10/15 and haven't hear **** from them. Called once and they preached patience....still waiting.

I called Ms. Walk and she gave me my decision over the phone. She did tell me that people who are currently waiting like you, will receive an email about the decision. You will still get the letter in the mail. So your wait will be over pretty soon. She is a very nice calming lady.

Thanks!! I actually just got the e-mail today from her, and she told me I could call tomorrow after noon. I hope you heard good news 🙂
