Members don't see this ad.

It seems discouraging when ppl complete in July haven't heard a single peep yet. I guess there's no way to really predict turnaround time

I guess this cycle is more slower out than last year's. We honestly don't know how they're all being reviewed, interview spots, or any of that.

application been complete since 7/5/2016, still haven't heard anything. I am a canadian student.. anyone else in the same boat?

How many OOS do they usually interview? Unsure if I should send the secondary if only to be rejected.

It is very difficult for OOS to get an II. If you are still interested in attending the MSUCOM, I recommend submitting the secondary ASAP because it is already a little late.

Guys, keep your heads up. There were people last year who didn't hear until past 4 weeks after, both accepted and waitlisted. The length of time to hear back is not proportional to how much they like you/decision, I promise!

 

[coffee makes me poop]

did you get a call or email?

Does anybody know how many Canadians have been accepted so far? I think the max they take is 25?

 

[Rabu4]

Yes, 20-25 Canadians accepted per year. From this forum alone, I think ~3-4 have been accepted (someone please correct me if I'm wrong).

 

[summergirl]

Having a 25 Canadian matriculation quota probably means they have to accept almost twice that amount to have at least 25 people accept the offer and matriculate. And 50 people is a huge amount.

Ok thanks guys. I have an interview this week and for some reason I thought that most of the Canadian spots had already been filled.

 

[osteomedstudent2021]

Hi guys, longtime lurker first time poster. My app was complete on 7/11 and I hadn't heard anything, so I sent an update 2 weeks ago on new activities and a new grade I just received... And still nothing. I'm a re-applicant and MSUCOM is my dream school. I am so confused and the silence is killing me! I have meticulously read through this thread and noticed that no one has mentioned getting any II at all in October yet... Anyone know if they've sent any out this month? I can't imagine they haven't...

They sent out II for October. One for the 18th and the other date was the 20th. However, I'm not sure if there will be any other dates in October.

Did you get an II?!

Right, I know there are interviews in October - I am wondering about any new interview invites. It seems like people last had II's in September for October interviews, so it seems like they would be sending out II's in October for November interviews, but I haven't seen anyone post that they've gotten any invites lately.

I was thinking the same thing, my guess is theyre sending them out once a month or so. Either that or not too many MI residents/MSUCOM applicants on SDN this year
