Rutgers said no to me too ... Keep the faith - we can only attend one school anyway so all we need is one acceptance!

Congrats!!
Another Rutgers rejectee here. I'm OOS, but feels bad anyways🙁
Do you mind sharing your stats?
Practically 8 months in, still waiting on 10 schools. lol
are all your schools still silent or have you received some rejections too?
that is a hell of a long wait to not hear anything
5 rejections, 9 are still silent. Not really sure why since I applied beginning of June and was in either the 1st or 2nd batch. :/

That takes balls, kid. Congrats!!
Thanks, but all it really takes is a stubborn wife who refuses to move. I told her it is not a great strategy, her reply was "well you better get in at OHSU then!"
Lol…your wife is bad ass too! Congrats on the acceptance!

So long as you don't have a rejection you have a chance. I know quite a few of us received rejections from Western about a week or two ago. Mine app was under review for 4 months.
Just got an email for interview invitation at roseman but I will decline
Interview #5
School: LECOM
Notification date: 1/28
Method of notification: email
Residency: VA
AADSAS mail-out date: 9-5
Application complete date: 9 -5
GPA (science, overall) 3.4 ish both
DAT (AA/TS/PAT/Reading/any section below a 17): 24, 24, 23, 17
I just got bored at work yesterday, started emailing silents schools and asked about the status of my application.
Lecom in particular, has been saying one of my letter was missing on their portal (not aadsas), I told them that a new letter has been sent a while ago and please have someone check on it.
Lo and behold, I got an interview invitation email while I was in my class today.
Pretty surprised that they sent me the interview the next day. I guess for some schools at least, emailing them and inquiring about the status can help you get the interview, or at least remind them that you are still interested.
I am not saying it is helpful for every school because I have received generic "please wait patiently for the committee to make the decision" messages from several institutions, but LECOM an NYU responded almost immediately with interview invites after an email and a phone call, respectively.

These schools have been silent for me as well! I wonder if we will ever hear anything from them at this point?
A call from UCLA at 8:00 PM PST? Congrats!
Is it common to have no response after interview? Western has not spoken a word to me.
Also, I do not know why all other schools are not giving any response yet.

Silence since June from NYU, BU, Tufts, Western, Roseman, Creighton, Columbia, Buffalo (continuing review), Temple.
Well I was placed on buffalo cont review in Oct and under review from roseman in September.
Safe to assume these are rejections?
