U. of Calgary interview!

Here in Canada, they do their interviews over set dates, so I am in the first round.

Now I will have some comparison to the US interviewing experience...

information on georgetowns post bacc program, they take my 100 dollars and then reject me then they send me this crap, I guess it goes out to everyone they reject, maybe they assume since they rejet you you won't possibly get in anywhere else or that you only applied there.

but anyways...i got a jefferson rejection.
 
Got my UCLA acceptance ... What a relief. Long overdue..😍:clap:

Rejection from Columbia. Pre-interview.
 
1st rejection: Robert Wood Johnson, no interview.
 
A phone call from the Academy bus company telling me that they did not, in fact, find my green notebook containing all of the notes and formulas that I need for a huge exam next week. Attempting to control tears.... ARGH!!!!!! :scared: :scared: 🙁 🙁

is it just me or did anyone think it was weird they used tape instead of bothering to seal their envelopes (w/ water or spit or whatever)

It will be OK - it builds character...

OK maybe not, but my truck got broken into the week before a chem midterm and my backpack containing everything I had to do with chemistry (I had just come from lab) was stolen. Talk to the prof - maybe they will be understanding...they won't be your notes, but it's almost as good if you can get the profs...

Good luck - I feel your pain!
 
Study abroad packet for Switzerland in the summer. Anyone else doing this.
 
I got a delayed decision letter from Tufts. Not quite a waitlist, not quite a rejection, but a delayed decision. It's sort of like this odd state of limbo.
 
Rejection e-mail from emory yesterday.
 
A stomach ache from worrying 🙁
 
Online pictures of my good friend's BRAND NEW BABY GIRL!!!! :clap: :clap:

After weeks and weeks of being on pins and needles about acceptances, rejections, etc... things like this sure help you put it all in perspective! (especially since I want to be a pediatrician!)
 
I got this week's issue of Newsweek and my cell phone bill. Are these posts supposed to be medical school related?

Oooooh! Lucky, i wanna see!!

I got a rejection from Northwestern
 
i keep getting mail for the person who used to have my box. no g-string catalogs, though...it's usually just random bills. that girl is probably wayyyy in debt from the looks of the piles of bills being sent to my place and NOT hers.
 
Rejection from Einstein. Pre-interview and in-state.
 
A letter from GW saying they've closed their interviews for this year but there's a slight chance that they'll reopen interviews in the summer and they'll invite me. I can't believe that they have back-ups for their back-ups! I have never gotten another letter like it. Is GW the only one that does this? Sheesh. 🙄

I got the same letter. I would have rather just gotten a rejection! Really annoyed me - seems kind of rude to keep people waiting for that long. Just make a decision! Anyways, I think I'm just gonna withdraw my app. 🙄

To withdraw do you just write them a letter or call them?

Not sure - I'll probably just send a letter.

i expect the same letter any day soon too.

my rejection from Harvard. I'm glad that they waited this long to reject me, I was expecting it so it softened the blow
 
I got a certificate and a new donor card (heavier plastic this time!!) from the American Red Cross.

I got the same letter. I guess it means that they have no bandwidth to process applications from such late applicants as myself.
 
me too
what the hell was that??!!!
are they trying to make you feel special by saying that they havent rejected you? did they even send out two different letters- one for the hold and one straight out rejection to some?? im withdrawing as well- they have been very slow and disorganized this year - not impressed at all

A phone call from my parents, who are currently on vacation in Mexico... my mom says "any news?!" and I reply "Mom, all the mail goes to YOUR house, and you're not there!!!". My mom pauses and says "Great vacation!!" :laugh: :laugh:

Such cute parents I have... 😉
 
rejection from ucla pre-interview. doh! 🙁
 
rejection from Einstein, pre-interview.........oh well
 
I got a rejection from my state school Friday (OHSU) and I am ashamed to admit that I cried. Of course that could have more to do with sleep deprivation than anything...one more week until my design project paper is due to the judges...
 
Arrgh!!! No one in my building got any mail on Saturday! Mail just didn't get delivered - that's all. Hopefully it was just backed up, not lost. +pissed+
