Does northwestern send you a letter or something telling you they decided not to give a secondary? or do they just keep you hanging....

hey xaelia,
congrats on the instant winners. I got past stan, duke, umich, and mayo phone, but reject from vandy and nada word from NU yet.
have you heard back from the mayo phone interview? Did you hear a positive response from them after it, or what? I'm still waiting to hear whether or not I receieved an onsite interview. After three rejections, and interview at mayo would make me happy.....would give me hope in this process..

hehe..ya..I guess sometimes we gotta laugh at the admisisons process. I was fairly positive I would get a vandy invite...did you get the mayo phone interview? This process is confusing...Hey, I just want one interview..that's all it takes, right? =X

Here's my sad story...I was abroad when all of my secondary requests came in (AMCAS submitted early June), and for the most part I had no problem. Come end of August, I realized that I was missing two secondaries, one from U of Mich, and from NU. U of Mich sends to everyone, so I sent an email to inquire, and they resent their previous email. I then very tactfully called NU to see if I was supposed to receive anything from them and didn't. The lady I spoke to took a few seconds to look something up and said "you'll receive something in the mail soon." Three days later comes my rejection letter with the date of my phone call.
I'm just a little bitter because NU is where I graduated from with my undergrad. I would think they would give us a little more attention. My MCAT isn't the highest, but I would have hoped that they would have at least given me a chance since I went to their institution. Mind you I figure that I am at least somewhat competitive because I have interviewed at another school.
My revenge is no alumni giving for a long while (which apparently is very important to them because I've already been solicited 3 times since graduation in June!) 😛

So how long does it take for them to tell u if you got an interview? My app has been complete since 9/16!!!!! Surely it is starting to get late!? what's the deal?

Me too. I believe some of the people that are getting interviews have like MEGA stats--mid to upper 30s MCAT type stuff.
