Nova and Campbell so far, apps complete and under review at 8 other schools.

I have an ii from Nova also. My application is being reviewed by 10 other schools, and now this one has decided to put me on hold.

I'm expecting to receive another 2-3 more interview invites by the end of this month. I'm trying to be as optimist as I can.

 

[DragonSoul]

Just called, a nice lady told me that i have been put on interview waiting list....

 

[Jayb82388]

On hold......wonder what kind of timeline we are facing being on hold, probably a huge range.

 

[chacha89]

Just received a letter in the mail, put on pre-interview hold.

 

[chizledfrmstone]

If possible can you guys put on hold please post your stats?

This letter is being sent to inform you that this year's interview cycle for 2013 has concluded and we are no longer interviewing applicants for the applied program."

Sounds like your app might have gotten mixed up somewhere. I'd call. Good luck.

I too received a letter in the mail stating that my application is being placed on hold as well. Very unfortunate, but I gotta keep thinking that everything happens for a reason.

That is definitely the best way to think about it. I guess it's better than a rejection letter so it isn't the kiss of death.

ehh it all feels like failure in some way, haha

I know it sounds corny, but it's only failure if you let it keep you down.

 

[tripl3s3v3n]

I also received a letter stating I was placed on hold. I wasn't too heart broken about it. Their loss really.

yeah i somewhat agree, but I have let it pass by and still see it as a failure, simply because i did not accomplish what I set before me. Not a big deal since there are other options, but nonetheless😉

Just asked. It was for last year's cycle. I kinda thought it might've been this years seeing as its so late into August already(meaning the other class has started).

Whew!!! Back on the trail.

Does anybody know what percentage of people get pulled off this list from prior years?

Do they accept extra letters or should I stick to one science and one DO?

Thanks!

 

[HeronsBeak]

[PintSize16]

[stlrams22]

Got placed on hold via mail 🙁

me too...although they did say my application had merit and the letter should be viewed as positive.

I think this school, like all I have applied too, is waiting for my retake score which comes out in one week 😱

 

[twinning]

Where is everyone staying for interviews? They gave a list of like 12+ places.

 

[Roxas]

[psquared22]

Emailed to cancel my interview on 9/18 and withdraw my application. Hope it helps someone get in a little earlier! Good luck everyone!

 

[Syra]

Just called, a nice lady told me that i have been put on interview waiting list....

Who else is on the interview waitlist?

 

[Wipeout416]

Me

 

[PSimon]

So how exactly wait list interview works? I am little confused about this.

I believe that the majority of the interview dates have been given so anyone with a interview waitlist decision would be up for the next available dates.

I don't know the order of who comes off ("complete" or "stats").

Not to say one way or another, but I don't think that's the case. I just withdrew my app/interview the other day and there were a ton of December dates available.

December is getting late and depending on when in that month it gets harder. Either way whomever has this need to update with a LOI.

I can +1 this and I know last year interviews went at least through April.

 

[pepes1lv1a]

I'm interviewing on the 19th (3.0/3.2/34Q for the curious) and I will be staying at the Comfort Inn the nights of Tuesday 17th, Wednesday 18th, and Thursday 19th. Any ladies also interviewing any night within this span of time want to share the room and work out an arrangement with a cot or something? I was planning on just eating the cost myself but since I'll be there for so long figured I might as well see if anyone else wants a cheaper option for somewhere to stay. Preferably a female who will double as a drinking buddy 🙂

PS just to be not creepy about it let me clarify that I am female as well
