Given the continued confusion about hold status, here is an explanation of the process directly from Marcy:

For anyone that gets invited to interview, the earliest rejection you will get at this point is shortly after March 15. If you have been reviewed by the committee or "ranked", then you are eligible for acceptance offers. For example, yesterday we appointed/offered acceptances to 7 students. The remaining students that had already interviewed AND had already been ranked, then go into a "hold" status. This doesn't mean they cannot still get an acceptance offer, it simply means they were not offered an acceptance at the first time they were eligible. We are on a rolling admissions so the deans will continue to offer acceptances on a varied timeline and no real predictability at this point. We will also continue to review new applications, continue to invite applicants to interview, and continue to interview applicants every Monday and Friday through the middle of February. March 15 is when enough offers will have to go out to fill the class per AAMC traffic rules. This hold status could potentially continue until March 15. After that time, if you still have not been offered an acceptance, one of two things may happen.

1. Offered a seat on an alternate list (Alternate list is not created until after March 15)
2. Not selected

Please [note] that several students now attending Mayo Medical School were once in a hold status [myself (i.e., Phoenix) included]. It is important to note that if you are a student that has already interviewed but has not gone before the committee, you were not eligible for appointments yesterday. You wouldn't be eligible unless you have been ranked by the committee, and of course you won't get a ranking until you have interviewed. Again, the ranking is not a rank order list, and it is not released to the student. There will be several more acceptances that will be offered from now until July 20th when matriculation happens!

So, the take home message is not to assume that you're rejected or that you have no chance if you didn't get an acceptance this round after being ranked. You're still eligible for consideration each time they decide to send out acceptances. And there are still 35 acceptances to be given out between now and March 15th. After that there will likely be more as people get in off the waitlist. As highlighted by Marcy, I was put on hold as well (and waitlisted), and got in. In fact, many of my classmates were also on hold before being accepted. Especially for applicants that interviewed this early in the season. And on that note, don't panic if you haven't even interviewed yet and figure there will be no spots left by the time you do. A bunch of my classmates interviewed in the winter and spring and got in too. Anyway, I'll give another pep post later when we get closer to March. But basically, it's not over until the first day of classes..... :luck:

Sigh.... Mayo... Be still the pitter patter of my heart.

In all seriousness, congrats to everyone who has interviews. Mayo is amazing even to just get the chance to see. They way the clinic, hospital and med school intertwine is way ahead of its time and really is making a difference in the way health care is carried out.

And :luck::luck: to everyone waiting to hear anything! They're busy in the office, so just be patient. Waiting doesn't necessarily mean bad news 🙂 .
 
Anyone know about how long it's taking people to be ranked now? I know Marcy said they do it every Thursday, but I'm sure there's a backlog of a few weeks. Who was the latest interview date to be ranked last week? Just curious whether those of us who interviewed this past week will be ranked in time for the next set of decisions.
 
I saw a group of interviewees on a tour of the gym today. I told them go derm cuz the ROAD to happiness ends in derm.😀
 
sorry I'm slow, please explain pianola
 
^ROAD = radiology, opthalmology, anesthesiology, and ... dermatology

(they're nicknamed the 'lifestyle specialties' because they pay well and have good hours as a general rule.)
 
anyone know what they're looking for?
i got a pre-LOR rejection 🙁 (i accidentally sent in my LORs right after i paid anyway LOL)
but it's not just #s is it?
i have a 3.79cGPA from a big canadian university and 34R (P12V11B11) so i thought i had a chance...at least to send in my LORs lol i want my 85USD back

yep, from the horse's proverbial mouth.

1st cut is academic, score is similar to LizzyM type, mcat + gpa * 10, cutoff was around 60-62 range, pretty low. The school is not primarily looking for high scores on grades/mcat exams. And they look at total MCAT score, one of the few schools that do not have a per-section cutoff.

Next three things (not in priority) they're looking at volunteer experience, either medical or non medical, does not matter.

Leadership experience

research experience "if you consider it research, we will consider it research".

changed my amcas app this year - last year I cleared the academic cut but missed the other areas & didn't go further. Due to changing amcas app & being very very specific about their areas of importance, just got the LOR request recently this cycle..

Did you hear this from someone actually from Mayo? I hoope so..



Ack, I'm getting scared...I got the email saying my letters were received on 9/19...so, this is into my 5th week of waiting! The letter said 4-6 weeks so hopefully it's almost time for me to hear something.
Sorry if this was mentioned earlier, I haven't read every page of this thread, but how does Mayo contact you for an interview? Phone call or email...?


Also, does anyone know for sure if updated information on AMCAS gets sent to the schools? I got a new phone number awhile back and updated my AMCAS post-submission. All of my secondaries have the new number on it, but I'm worrying now that perhaps Mayo did not get the update from AMCAS (since there was no formal secondary app..) Hmm, I think I'll send an email about that...

You've probably got a little more waiting.. It seems to be running around 7-8 weeks, but hang in there! They will e-mail you for an interview, but probably a good idea to make sure they have the right phone number just in case. Good luck!!

By the way... WOW the gym is AMAZING. Just like everything else. Seriously the whole school looks like it was built yesterday. The only exceptions are old, very historic buildings, which are cool in their own way.

I'm guessing: 1) he had some really bad personal experiences with horses and good ones with dolphins and dogs (ever swim with a dolphin in hawaii?); 2) it has some sort of fortuitous religious/astrological/mythological significance (year of the dolphin?); or 3) he's simply referring to the fact that dogs and dolphins are incredibly intelligent animals, and horses are by far too stubborn and contrary. Unless you have a beagle, of course. 😉
 
hmm, both 1) and 3) hehe.

When I was a kid, I got the chance to ride a full grown horse, super excited😀. Until I found I was afraid of height:scared:, and the whole 3 minute ride which my parents paid alot for at the zoo was a nightmare for me, and my parents wouldn't let me get off because we already paid the fee 👎.

I had three dogs as a kid at my grandparents house (grandparents raised me till I was 4), and I'm still hoping to be able to swim with a dolphin some day 😀

Both dolphins and dogs are cute, smart, and loyal, so they are my favorite animals 🙂


And my favorite dog is Shelby, brownie points to whomever knows what I'm referring to 😀

How long does it take mayo to get back to you post-interview?

I know about the ranking system that Phoenix posted, but am wondering about the timeline between an interview and the first date the interviewee could hear. Are we talking 2 weeks? 4?

Hope my question makes sense. I understand that it is entirely possible to get in even if we do not hear on the first date possible.

It all depends. First, you have to be reviewed at the admissions committee and receive the ranked email. I don't know that this is always true, but sometimes they'll tell you on your interview day around how many weeks it will be until you're reviewed for ranking purposes. And from what I saw last year, they can get a little backlogged around the holidays (Nov/Dec), so there's no "usual" amount of time I can hypothesize that phase should take. I think some people earlier in the season received their ranked email in a week or two, while I received mine over a month later (see below for my dates). Also, both of your interviewers have to be present for you to be ranked, so if for some reason one of them is not available for a committee meeting, you may end up getting ranked later. I also think I recall last year that some interviewees were ranked a little earlier than expected because the fourth years that interviewed them were going to be unavailable later on when they would have been discussed at the committee meeting. The point is, it's really variable.

Then, after you receive your "ranked" email, the first time you could get an acceptance call would be the very next time they decided to give out more acceptances. From what we saw last year, there are no designated dates that they give out acceptances (i.e., they don't necessarily do so on days the committee meets), so it could be a matter of days after receiving the ranked email, or weeks. I would think that if they had just given out acceptances right before you were ranked, it will probably be a matter of weeks before they give out more. If they haven't given any out in a few weeks, then the wait will probably be less.

As for my personal experience, I interviewed last year on 12/9, received the ranked email on 1/17, received a hold email on 1/30 (this was when they next gave out acceptances), received alternate status (waitlist) on 3/17 and was accepted on 6/10. You could always look up last year's Mayo 2008 thread to see the dates that acceptances were given out. Obviously they won't be giving out acceptances on those dates this year, but it may give you a sense of the general frequency in past years.

Again, all of this is just my attempt at answering your question. If you want the real deal, I suggest that you email or call Marcy. But personally, I'd wait until I was ranked first, because until then, it's really all just academic. Good luck! :luck:

If it's helpful, the e-mail I got after interviewing said that the admissions committee review and decision could take up to 6 weeks.
 
I guess I'll be in for quite a wait. Maybe I'll visit Rochester for my winter break vacation.
 
Adding myself...as an aside, it seems like theres a lot more people getting IIs after getting a LOR request than there are being rejected after LORs.

I applied to mayo pretty much on a lark, and didnt expect to even get a LOR request (I just got a UCSF rejection yesterday, without even a secondary app request) so it was a surprise to find the email from mayo in my mailbox today.

Well...the people who are rejected probably don't update the list
 
anyone from SDN interviewing at Mayo this next week?
 
I did earlier this week. Very, very impressive!

This seems reasonable that there are a fair amount of interviews offered to LOR requested applicants - per a previous poster (maybe Phoenix who has been so great about providing info about this?) in a former cycle, there were around 250 interviews & around 500 LOR requests; makes this reasonably good odds.

btw the "horse's mouth" from my previous post was from a woman, this past spring, at the Mayo admissions office, providing specific feedback to me, and who was able to advise exactly what Mayo was looking for in an applicant. (forgot her title). She was not an admin type person.
 
Just got an interview invite! Was complete on 9/5. I am sooo excited! I was wondering if those who had already interviewed could give me some advice on the best travel arrangements. Thanks

Congrats on the interview!

For air travel, you can fly into Rochester or Minneapolis. Minneapolis would probably be cheaper and it is only about an hour and a half drive away from Rochester. There is also discount on the Minneapolis-Rochester shuttle with your Mayo invitation.

As far as where to stay, the Kahler Hotel is within walking distance from Mayo. Personally, I stayed with a student host and would recommend that. It let me meet some students and get some perspective on what it's like to be a student there.

Best of luck and enjoy the trip!

my love for Mayo is undergoing a positive feedback loop 🙂
 
Does anyone know when the next calls are going out?

When I was there they said not too soon, because they went out on 10/15. They hinted at 4-6 weeks from 10/15.

On that note, anyone been ranked recently? I'm still waiting on that little tidbit so I'm hoping calls don't go out too soon 😉

Excellent. [To be read with Smithers voice from The Simpsons]. Speaking of which, I'm still in that loop. Just wait until you've been fully Mayonized. I imagine it's going to be pretty hard to leave here in four years. Hence more than half the class stays on for Mayo residencies....

Haha, oh GloryField...you're a riot. I hope we're classmates someday 🙂

I heartily second that. 👍 And so does my dog. :laugh: But honestly, I don't envy the admissions committee. You guys are all stellar.

EDIT: Hey, I snagged the thousandth post! Twenty pages already? You guys are putting Mayo 2008 to shame!
