Official 2015-2016 Rejections Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I don't think they've sent out rejections but they have sent out invites (there is only 1 spot available on 1 date in Jan, so I assume they're mostly done until/unless people cancel); And hes HUP=Penn.

Thanks for the clarification, chrissyxf, and good luck with your interviews at Penn and elsewhere! Maybe the ax will arrive next week and allow the rest of us to move on.
 
anyone get any info on UCLA main campus yet?

I came across a lot of hemming and hawing about how to interpret silence from programs this cycle. I applied to a fair number of programs, so I thought I'd add one more side of the rejection story for posterity.

This list only reflects my experience. Still, maybe future applicants will find it useful somehow.


Programs that never sent a rejection (to me)

Baylor
BU
Case
Duke
Emory
George Washington
Georgetown
Kaiser-SF
Maine
Mayo (Rochester)
Mt. Sinai
MUSC
NYU
Ohio State
Olive View-UCLA
Rush
Tulane
UAB
U Arizona
UC-Davis
UChicago North Shore
UCLA
UConn
UPMC/Pitt
USC
UTSW
UVA


This list is current as of 2/5/2016. Because I am not aware of any programs still interviewing, I am assuming that this list is final. If you apply to these programs, you may, like me, never receive any communication from them.

Not that these programs will care...but I think it's incredibly rude that they will take a "processing fee" and won't even bother sending a rejection letter. That's the bare minimum they can and should do.

Agreed. I know it's whiny but with all this talk about professionalism, I feel like programs should at least take the time to spam out a rejection letter to everyone else.

+ WashU (01/21)

Also most programs I have called recently are saying that they've completed their interviews for the season so I'm guessing there will be a lot of rejections coming up.
