One of them was in review since 1/31, the other two just became "in review" this morning. My gpa is 3.53.
When did you submit your app? I submitted mine 1/07 but it was complete until 1/31. I have nothing next to any of my schools, it's just blank

Hey, just a quick question...how many days does it take for the transcript to get processed? Mine was sent on the 30th (late, I know, but it's a longggggg story). I still don't see it listed as "received" on the SMDEP app status page, so should I resend it? Or should I wait a few more days?

Hey guys, my applications reached "complete" status on the 24th and I applied to Nebraska, Howard, and UT Houston.
I was just wondering if I have a good/decent chance of getting into the sites above;
-4.0 GPA
-strong essays
-asian-american
-live in an underserved community
I think it's just that they are so backed up with the Feb. 1st deadline that in order to get it all processed they just didn't update the website but have it completed for their records.something fishy is going on. I submitted my transcript like 2 weeks ago almost 3 now and they STILL haven't received it. I have went every route possible to track and reconfirm its destination.
I think something is going on in the background, seems like I'm not the only one with a missing transcript. I wasted so much money on transcripts. I don't have all this money to be sending around. I want to apply to PREP now but I don't really even have the funds to re-request more transcripts
im SUPER underrepresented and disadvantaged, i would have been a perfect candidate and i wrote and awesome essay too.

Does anyone know how often they update the website, because my schools have been blank for over a week.
Not enough
Right now I have two schools reviewing my application and none of my LORs are shown as "Received"
SMDEP updates information slowly especially toward the decision release date. It may take up to 2 weeks for them to mark your status as "received" after they actually receive your transcript. If you have waited longer, I suggest trying calling them around 9:30 am when they are open.
Hello!woo hoo! i just found this post. I applied too, to UCLA, Columbia, and washington. I finished my app back in December, and my my ucla and columbia apps have been in "review" since early January. I got a call about 3 weeks ago from columbia, did anyone else get a call?
Hello!
I also applied to Columbia and my app is in review. My app has been completed since mid- January and I haven't received a call. But I know some people have received calls from Duke asking about their math and science classes. If you don't mind me asking what did Columbia call you about?
Ugh I'm not sure how to gauge your chances but your stats look good and I think your background will also help. But I know for sure decisions will not be out at midnight. It will be later that day around the time the office is open. Best of luck to you!Hey SMDEPers! I am applying for the dental programs at Columbia, Nebraska, and Louisville. My applications have been "in review" for about two weeks now. I am a white female with a 3.75 GPA and a 27 ACT score. I am from a very rural and economically disadvantaged background. What are my chances of getting in?
Couple of other questions:
Will the decisions come out at midnight?
Should I call the locations just to check on the application and make sure they don't have questions?
[/COLOR]
Well it's definitely not bad. They just want to have update info to make the most informed decision which hopefully aids in you acceptance.The person in charge of smdep at Columbia called me for a quick review my grades last quarter, when I sent my app my fall grades hadn't been released. Hopefully thats a good sign
Results will definitely not be out at midnight. from where i sit it looks like your chances are good but, you are not a URM. I would say it really depends on your essay and how disadvantaged your background is in comparison to everyone else. Good Luck!Ugh I'm not sure how to gauge you chances but your stats look good and I think your background will also help. But I know for sure decisions will not be out at midnight.

Hey Guys!
Did any of your apply to the Yale, Columbia, UW site, if yes, it would be great if i can compare stats
G.P.A 3.95 (But no sciences yet) Will this affect my chances?
Freshman, URM

Application sent on the 31st of December and marked complete on the 11th of January
AAAAAAHHHH IIMMM SSSSOO NEERRRRVVVOOOUUUSSSSSS

Yeah I am applying for the medical program. I did the same with applying to the most competitive (Columbia) to the least (UVA).Good luck to all of you as well! Is anyone else doing the dental program? It seems like almost everyone is doing medical. I tried to apply to more competitive programs (Columbia) and less competitive (Louisville).
I am so nervous! I really hope I get in! Where does everyone go to school? I go to Mizzou.
i go to the University of WA. I am really hoping i at least get into the one here. I am doing the medical program as well, I know a few people who applied to the dental program at Columbia but everyone else i know is pretty doing the medical program. Yikes! so little spots to fill, so many applicantsGood luck to all of you as well! Is anyone else doing the dental program? It seems like almost everyone is doing medical.

They are probably just a bit late in updating information online. I didn't apply to Duke but i have friends who are in the same boat as you so, don't worry quite as much about it.Hey guys! I've applied to UCLA Duke and Yale. I had a couple questions though. First I got the call from duke but they haven't changed the status of my application to in review yet on the website. Is it the same for anyone else?
Second question: I applied to UCLA even though I am not from Cali do you think I still have the opportunity to get in that, or was that a bad decision?
Thirdly- Have you guys applied to any other summer programs? I was looking into the PREP program any info on that guys?
Thanks and good luck!
Hi smdep applicants for 2012.......I participated in smdep in summer 2011 and it was one of the best experiences I could ask for.....if you have any questions just ask.
O yea I matriculated from the New Jersey UMDNJ site DThe best site) lol
Do they ever answer the phone? I waited 30 minutes and still didn't get an answer.
I'm interested in hearing about your experience at UMDNJ. There are 2 campuses, one in Piscataway and the other in Newark, and I believe the program is only held at the Newark campus. What kinds of activities did you participate in? Also, why would you describe UMDNJ as one of the best sites?

my apps for columbia and ucla have been in review since early january, but nothing has happened with my washington one.is everyone's applications "in review" at this point for all three sites? only one of the sites i applied to is reviewing it at the moment...
My washington one is still holding out as well Perhaps they are just too lazy to put it onlinemy apps for columbia and ucla have been in review since early january, but nothing has happened with my washington one.

What date did your say it was completed?What the heck! All three of my schools are still blank
It's probably because you completed the application after Feb. 1st. I did, and all three schools on my status page are completely blank.What the heck! All three of my schools are still blank
And what would you say was the most helpful part of the program?
