Any volunteers to call admissions?
I am far too cowardly to do this.

not it-- too scared to do it too!
maybe someone with a blocked number could do it! ha
Why don't you use a public telephone? 😉
They might ask your name.
someone said that the admissions committee meets on thursday night... does anyone know if this is true? ... tryin to figure out if i should stop worrying everytime i get a phone call... haha
how do you know that they meet thursday? did they tell you at your interview?
sorry for the many questions
sweet! did they also mention the phone call too?
once again, sorry for the questions 🙂
They said there would be a phone call for acceptances. However, this information may turn out to be inaccurate, given that nobody got a call last week.
I'll still be very anxious tonight and tomorrow.
do you guys think they will call tonight or tomorrow morning? They make evening calls?
They told us at the interview that they would call in the evening. However, much of what they told us seems to have been inaccurate. So who knows...
Tonight?!?! Oh my gosh I'm so nervous/excited/anxious!!!!
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE WAITING!!!!!!! Hopefully we will all be posting happy replies to this thread tonight![]()
See, as I remember it, they told us we would find out "mid-January"... and obviously the 4th isn't the middle of Jan. I interviewed early Nov. Maybe they are letting us know after the 15th like a lot of other schools.
They told us, specifically, "if you get in you will hear Jan 4th, or at the very latest Jan. 11th." Yet nobody has heard...

This is from the acceptance thread from 2006. However, every year is different...
Hi all,
From what I know, today was the first day the AdCom met (not on the 4th), and phone calls have been going out tonight. Good luck to all!

Hi guys,
I don't want to mislead you in any way, but I do know someone who got a call a couple hours ago. I don't know how many calls they're making this time, or how the entire process works at Stanford. But I can't imagine that they have gone through ALL the applications yet, so have hope!![]()
Good luck all! 🙂
Can anyone else verify this? I find it strange that not one person on SDN or mdapps was contacted, nor were the 2 people I know who interviewed there early (3 including yours truly). Maybe they are waiting until today to call the east coasters 😀
I really wish admissions would just send us an email and let us know what's going on.
are you all east coasters? chimoso, where was the friend who got the call located?
I figure west coast, given how late the last post would be on the east.
Last year, east coasters often heard on Fridays, not Thursdays.
thats what i am hoping for.
i still dont know... you would think at least ONE person on here would have heard/posted. maybe they were to busy celebrating to post? Im about to head out, i might call the office late afternoon. anyone wanna try this morning?
Hello everyone,
I spoke with the admissions office and this is what they informed me:
-The admissions commitee met for the first time last night. They meet on a weekly basis and only get through about 20-30 applications at a time.
-Dr. Garcia's phone calls are made in addition to the written acceptance as a courtesy, but not everybody gets one (or so it seems).
-The earlier you interviewed-the earlier you may be notified (might be somewhat common sense, but it's nice to hear from the office).
Well, I hope this helps!
🙂
