Rowan University (RowanSOM) Discussion Thread 2016-2017

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
This is my top DO school. Really hope I get an II here. My friend said she sent her app in for this school in March and still got an II and she's an MS2 now so there's still plenty of time for everyone out there.

Whoa so there is forsure hope! Did you submit your secondary yet?
 
So if I interviewed 9/15 and got no call, should i assume I've been wait listed? Is it possible they didn't review all the 9/15 interviews? This is so stressful!!!

I would like to know that too... they only called 2 people on monday, at least those who use SDN. They called many people the other friday they accepted
 
I was wondering if the two that were accepted had the same interviewer, maybe that interviewer couldn't make it to the friday review so they did their reviews earlier. #StayingOptimistic

From reading the thread it looks like they definitely got through all the 9/10 interviews, but I feel like there is a good chance they did not make it through all of the 9/14-9/15 interview reviews.
 
Any idea when those who interviewed on 10/1 will find out? so anxious !!!
 
Hey all,

I also interviewed sept 15th and it's been silent on my end.
Is it safe to assume at this point that I've been waitlisted/rejected? If so, how will I know?

Anyone on the same boat as me in terms of not hearing back?

We should wait until tomorrow when the committee meets again.
 
Omg this wait is killing me lol. Congrats tho!!! That's awesome

Congrats!

And yes me too im eating up my battery checking my phone. I wonder if admissions depends on your interviewer and their availability when they decide.

It's gotta be something like that because i definitely was not expecting a Thursday call....try to get your mind off it! Good luck, hope to see you next yr!!
 
Silent on my end too. I think wait lists/rejection are snail mail. 🙁
 
Congrats to everyone accepted so far! I'm a first year here happy to answer questions. Feel free to PM me or whatever
 
How long did everyone wait for a decision on an interview after submitting the secondary? I submitted mine on 9/16 and haven't heard a thing yet

Submitted mine July 19th and I received an interview invitation on Sept 22nd. But there are people who submitted after me who were invited earlier- I don't think you should use other people's timelines as a good reference.

There are people who submitted in July who have not heard back. You can hear back tomorrow or you can hear back in march/april.
 
If we get wait listed at Rowan, how long would it be until we hear back from them? Also, how beneficial would it be to send a letter of intent?

Did you get waitlisted or are you just asking?
 
does anyone know when the committee meets next?
 
Anyone OOS applying here? Silent on my end. I think 83% of their students are NJ residents, is that based on self selection or do they have a bias? I sent them a letter of intent via portal but not sure what else to do.

I don't think they have called anyone since last week (at least that is what I've seen on SDN). In terms of OOS vs IS, I think almost all allo/osteo schools have some sort of preference to in state applicants but it may also mean more IS apply vs OOS. Hang in there! hoping to hear something back too!
 
Interviewed 9/15 and got the acceptance call last Friday 10/7! I think it depends on when your interviewer is able to present to the admissions committee so hang in there my fellow interviewees!

Are you IS or OOS? Also, did you submit a Letter of Intent to the school?
