Schools that Give Out Fast Rejections

Members don't see this ad.

So, I've heard that some schools are quick to reject applicants while others prefer silent rejections.

I'll start the list with BU, a school known for sending out rejections after just 3 weeks....

Any more?

Instead of constructing a list with (inherently inaccurate) generalizations, I suggest you parooze www.mdapplicants.com to see when the schools that you've applied to send interview invitations (or rejections) to applicants in your stats range. This will give you a much more specific idea of where you stand.

You got rejected from BU after 3 weeks? Try several hours after my secondary was submitted, email in the middle of the night. I doubt that anyone even read my application and there was also no way that I got screened out by stats. That school has the most blatant fishing for secondary fees that I've ever seen.

Dang! That would be frustrating. Extremely obvious that all they wanted was secondary fees.

First school to send me a secondary (several weeks before my MCAT score came out or AMCAS was verified) and fastest to reject.

Pritzker has rejected people in less than 24 hours.

This school apparently doesn't even need 24 hours:

App Complete: Wednesday, 7/6/11, 10:41 am
Rejection E-mail: Thursday, 7/7/11, 8:31 am
-----------------------------------------------------------
Total time needed to read my application and determine that I suck: 21 hours, 50 minutes

Can anybody beat that?




(Hey, at least they're efficient!) 👍

I won't reveal the school's identity, but I will say that it is a private school and I live in the state, anyway.

And it rhymes with Britzker.

Edit: SteveJMarist beat me to it...

UW rejected me pre-secondary within days of verification.

Hahaha no. I'm serious. They rejected you that fast? Not cool, they barely looked at your app it would seem like.

I hear Mayo rejects you faster than that lesbian at the bar I tried to hit on last week.

probably read some of your posts on here...

Cool beans.

Are there schools that send you multiple rejections? For example, school K sends a rejection letter to Y on the 2nd week of October. On the 3rd week of October, Y receives another rejection from K. On the 4th week of October, Y receives another rejection from K. Does this happen at all?

It's one of those 5000:19 OOS schools, so I wasn't really that torn up about it.

Kind of reminds me of when I applied to undergrad. I got a rejection letter from MIT but never submitted an application to start with. Can anyone beat that?

Can you explain? Do you have a family member who works in the admissions office?

Yes cough cough case western cough cough. I first got a “status update” prompting me to check the website. Rejected from University program + Cleveland Clinic. I then proceeded to get a “status update” from them a couple of times thereafter prompting me to check the website. Literally every time, I thought they changed their mind about rejecting me, and wanted to offer an interview, but NOPE!!!!

Oh man I'm sorry to hear that but your post made me lol, just like saggy said.

BTW, you're almost as subtle as this poster
