Last year I got status update email on November 1st, OOS. Granted, VMCAS was due two weeks earlier last year. If it’s going anything like the pace it did last year it should be very soon!
 
Ugh the delays are killing me...I just had my GPA stuff posted yesterday
 
Still waiting on my GPA calculations here. I wonder if they go in any particular order? If they're going through the list alphabetically I'll be at the very end. The wait is driving me insane too!! :nailbiting:

I'm "Z" if they're doing alphabetical:p Maybe they just need to update your page, here's to hoping for next week we all hear something!

Does anyone know how they what it takes to move to the file review?
 
Does anyone know how they what it takes to move to the file review?

For out of state applicants, to make it to file review you have to be in the top 150 applications OOS. This is objective and calculated from the last 45 hour GPA, required courses GPA, and GRE scores. I don't know how heavily weighted each of the three categories are though. I also read that all IS applicants get file review as long as they meet the minimum requirements.
 
I just checked my portal and my GRE scores were totally wrong (wrong date, scores)! It was unnoticed the first time I checked a while ago, however, they changed it quickly when I emailed them. Might be worth it to double, triple check yours too! The original mistaken score was much lower than my actual score, phew!
 
My GPA calculations are up so I am just waiting now! The waiting game sucks! Has anyone heard anything yet regarding interviews?

Z here as well! :highfive: Still no update. None of my classmates have gotten updates either so I guess I'll postpone my mental breakdown for a few days. We're all IS, so maybe we will hear something later. I didn't get an email or survey, but I'm curious- what happens on the 22nd? Hope everyone gets good news for whatever it is!

Most IS students got their status updated this morning with an email saying we're being moved to folder review on 12/4. It just may give me the motivation to make it through finals week.

Sounds like you’re still in the running! I’d say it’s good news.

I did not make it into the top 150 OOS applicants. A bit disappointed and bummed :(

From what I've heard, last year they started sending interview invites out around 12/20. I think they are starting the folder reviews later this year though (due to personnel changes and the later VMCAS deadline). I was told they tried to have them completed by 12/1 last year and they aren't starting until 12/4 this year. Who knows.
 
Made it to folder review!! OOS. Anyone have any idea how many OOS applicants they typically accept?

If the numbers on the status check site are accurate there are 15 seats reserved for OOS applicants this cycle (and 9 for Arkansas residents).

Going off of the stats from past semesters this looks to be pretty typical.

I was in limbo and checked my status page for the hell of it today, I'm in folder review!! :clap: Never received an email or anything so check your pages people!

OOS applicant here, under folder review (yay!). I just read from the website, "A certain number of qualified applicants are invited to interview from each applicant pool (Louisiana, Arkansas, and Puerto Rico residents). Roughly the top two-thirds of eligible Louisiana, Arkansas, and Puerto Rico applicants are interviewed." Does this mean that other OOS applicants are not interviewed?

I'm not 100% sure but if say probably not :( If the top 150 went into folder review plus some applicants in limbo like myself, let's say 20 people for fun, were all interviewed for 15 available seats that'd be more work than it'd be worth for admissions. So my guess quite a few of us will get the boot soon:( Again pure speculation I hope I'm wrong :)

If you look at last years thread a few people posted that they were accepted w/o being interviewed. Not sure if this is still the case this year.

So if they don't do what they did last year (acceptances without an interview for a few OOS folks) should we hear soon? Portal says late November mid December. Just tired of waiting already haha

Anyone get updates today? My portal says the updated today but my status is the same!
 
Mine looks the same as you described. I’d imagine they’d send out invites before Christmas so I’m betting it’ll be early next week. Last year it was the Friday before Christmas week (today) but they also had two less weeks this year because of the VMCAS extension.

Mine updated also, maybe they’ll worked through the weekend!? I’ve received an update on a Sunday before!
 
I usually check it daily and it updates almost every day of the work week usually. It'd be nice if we heard something this weekend though!
