It's been a pretty quiet week... Has anyone heard anything? When Ms. White said that decisions will be sent out by the second week of April I didn't think they would procrastinate 'til the last day! -_-

Have not heard anything. Was hoping to hear by today. Guess that gives us something to look forward to next week. 😉
 
I will be withdrawing my application as I have decided to attend Tufts MBS program instead. Good luck to everyone!
 
I was told I would hear back from IMS program (acceptance or denial) by the second week of April. I have yet to hear back. Has anyone else received any further info?
 
Exline.J, I was hoping to hear back by this morning but I still don't have anything. Making me pretty nervous!

I emailed Ms. White this morning and got this as a reply:

"Unfortunately, the Co-Directors have both been out of the office at different times for the past 2 weeks, therefore as soon as final decisions have been confirmed by both of them official emails will be sent out.


I apologize for the delay,

Shaterra White"

Congrats! I hope it goes well there for you.

I haven't heard back anything. Let's hope that we will today, guys.

We might not hear back for a while then, because Easter is around the corner.
 
This wait is very frustrating, especially with the program start date in the very near future. Thank you for updating us, @Exline.J and good luck to everyone. Fingers crossed that we hear back before Easter.

How long did it take for you to hear back? I just applied to the MS-HS program.
 
One more week to go.....

"Over 200 individuals expressed interest in the IMS program. Presently 100+ completed applications are under review. As a result of such a large applicant pool, the final decision notification date has been moved to Friday, April 25, 2014 by 5pm.

Cordially,

Shirley Smith"

Today was too good to be true. I had a feeling that we were going continue to wait, but I figured we'd get an email regarding the delay. Errr
 
Imperturbability &Equanimity! I understand why Sir W Osler wished it to aspiring docs. Let's be patient guys.
 
Well, we didn't even get an email regarding the delay!
 
Hey guys check your email again. I literally just received an acceptance from Shirley Smith! Gogogogo! That was a good first post for me!
NO joke? I thought that the office closes at 5pm.
 
Yes, I got this:

"Congratulations, pending official acceptance by the Dean of Graduate Studies, you have been selected to matriculate into the IMS program leading to a Master of Science in Medical Science within the Morsani College of Medicine.

Maybe only acceptances went out at 5 🙁
That's only one person. Stay positive. If anything, sending rejections is easier because you do not need to put extra info. I am more inclined to think that the decisions are not all in yet.
 
I think you're right, they probably only went through last names A-G or something like that. I haven't posted before, but like you guys I was pretty pissed off when they didn't send anything at 5. Then when I received it at 5:44 I was kinda shocked and figured I couldn't leave you guys waiting in anticipation. Keep your spirits up though. My stats are not phenomenal so don't get discouraged.

Would you mind sharing what your stats were? I was waitlisted as well.
