Interviewed on 11/11 and just got a portal change saying a decision has been made. Does LECOM call people to tell them that they are accepted and only send mail if you are waitlisted or rejected? Or does everyone receive a decision in the mail regardless of their status?

All via snail mail.

If you get an interview, they will send you mail after they change your portal to "decision made." If you don't get an interview, they will do a silent rejection.

Interviewed 9/23, waited 4 months to hear back. Got my letter today aaaaaand..... alternate list.

Looks like I'll be doing a little more waiting lol.

Anyone have any information on LECOMs alternate list? I'd honestly love to go here. What are the chances of acceptance off the alternate list? And when do people on the alt list start hearing back for final decisions?

They stress that they do not give notice over the phone. A friend called multiple times and they just told him to sit tight until he received his letter.

I know the committee meets every Wednesday. What day do they usually update the portals? I interviewed 9/2 and I'm still waiting

We both interviewed the same day in September. He finally got his decision late November. I am waiting for my letter after my portal change this week.

Where did you get this from?
 
How long does it usually take from portal change until you receive the physical letter ? I really hope we don't have to wait the whole 30 days.

Some people may be lying and those who aren't generally get in other places and go there instead. The schools stats are also in the FAQs section on the lecom website!

Applied to all the texas schools(no luck). Applied to four DO schools and was complete in October. I had an interview for the William Carey on the 30th but they had a tornado there and wiped out the campus and they are closed indefinitely. I would love to attend either Lecom campus though

Interviewed Dec. 2nd, 3.2/511 (repping for the **** GPA crew). Just checked portal today and saw that a decision has been made, not sure exactly when that happened but hopefully I'll get that letter within the week. I'll update with letter results and answer any questions.

Anyone know the percentage of LECOM (Erie specifically) applicants interviewed vs accepted?

You applied to PA or Florida campus?
 
All those getting waitlisted, which pathway did y'all specify as your first?

Hmm. I chose PBL Erie. I was wondering if just one of them had been filled, it seems there isn't really a pattern.
 
I also haven't gotten my letter yet. So I'll update y'all when that happens.

For those that got accepted. The letter package is big right, not standard size envelope. Just trying to let my tenants know how it's describe it to me haha.

My acceptance letter was a typical envelope. Other documentation was provided through email after I paid the deposit.
