Hi! I was extremely lucky and received an acceptance from one of my top choices, but I had a few more interviews coming up that I no longer feel like I want to attend because of my A. Is it common courtesy to send an email withdrawing? or should I just withdraw from the secondary portal?

Some people told me that I should still interview at the other schools, but the other schools are OOS DO schools and the school I got into is an IS MD. Am I being stupid if I withdraw from these interviews?

thank you 🙂

If you happy with your MD acceptance, then taking yourself out of consideration is fine!

So go give some other kids a shot at their dreams.

And congrats on acceptance!

It happens all the time. If you know your school is "the one," do the DO schools a favor and find other people to interview. Besides MD and DO systems don't crosstalk, but we all understand.

Email is fine. If they ask you to do something more formal, they'll tell you.

Not stupid at all. If you know for certain that you will not attend these other schools under any circumstances (e.g. a full tuition scholarship), then withdraw from the interview. Congrats future MD!
