Well my status changed to formal review by Detroit Mercy, so I got that going for me this morning..

I too got this update from UDM this morning. I wonder how long we will be in the "formal review" process for? Does anyone have any experience with this?

Damn, UDM hates me. 9/16 here.

They had problems locating my check and photo, so maybe that's why.

I should mention though that my letters of rec were not submitted till the third week of September, so your file may move to the next stages quicker than my file did?

Log onto the Midwestern Portal, I used to click application checklist and it would have all my materials with the check-mark. Today it says "unable to find information"

Can't be a good sign....

Same thing happened to me! I emailed them to ask why I couldn't see my information anymore and they responded by saying "at this time we have received all necessary information.". Whats going on?

What do you mean by denial email?

 

[xerxes106]

What do you mean by denial email?

"I looked up your application and you were denied. Your science GPA was cited as the major reason. Let me know if you have more questions"

Congrats! My mailout date is about the same time, can I what your status was before you got the interview or did it stay the same?

 

[Will 8wt2]

Just got an email from Indiana saying that my application is now complete. Lol what does this mean?

 

[DentalDoge]

not surprised, just being anxious...

Welcome to the club. Most of us have been waiting since Early July. It's been about 3.5 months already and a little more than a month left to go.

 

[DentalDoge]

What else does "application complete" mean?

English is hard.

OU interview this Saturday. Any comments/tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you! Lecom doesn't show up on the AADSAS portal. The lecom portal now displays that my "admission status" is that I've been invited for interview, I think it said that it was under review prior

English is hard.

It means whenever your application is complete to its entirety, meaning the school received each component of the application (LOR, supplemental, fee, AADSAS, etc.)
