List of schools that silently reject?

[bears1992]

Does anyone know which DO schools give silent rejections? I found some old threads on this that seem to indicate Nova, PCOM and UNECOM do this, but I haven't found a recent thread with any of the newer schools.

I've heard LECOM going by old threads.

PCOM, I heard from every other school that rejected me

Did you apply to Nova and if so, how long did it take you to hear back?

Yes, I didn't get the rejection email until late spring

I met with someone from the admissions committee at PCOM (not a formal interview) a couple weeks back and they noted that if you don't receive an II by February, essentially expect a rejection coming in the spring. Hope that helps! Can't comment on the other schools

NYCOM, PCOM, and Nova are probably the worst offenders. In 3 application cycles I never heard back from any of them, I've seen reports of the same on here as well.

However, I suspect that state schools in general do this a lot also, especially to the OOS applicants who probably should have done their research.

This thread is particularly brutal when you're waiting to hear back from 11 schools on potential interviews and then you realize that 7 of them have been mentioned here as silent reject-ers (NOVA, LECOM, LECOM-B, Touro-CA, Touro-NV, NYITCOM, PCOM)

Also, does silent reject mean they hold all rejections until late spring or does it mean that they never reject at all?

They never reject at all. Some of the mentioned schools sent me a rejection email in like June but some I just never heard from

You think the least they could do after sending in the primary and secondary fees along with the essays is to send an automated rejection email ..

KYCOM. I was in state, accepted at 2 other schools, and applied very early. Not a word after secondaries sent.
