Summary of Application Experience
I checked my on-line status on USC's web site today to discover a rejection letter posted with the date 'February 15th'. They couldn't even take the time to e-mail me the letter, much less mail it? (4/6)
Received my acceptance to the Georgetown Special Master's Program yesterday. It felt so good to see 'acceptance' written on the top of something for once! (2/9)
I sent letters of interest to EVMS and all the schools where I am on hold in early December, and have yet to hear anything from any of them. While home with strep throat on Wednesday I received the pre-secondary rejection from my alma mater...what gives, UCSD?!!?! (1/20)
Beginning to think that my destiny is to be perpetually on hold...(12/8)
So dissapointing: an official letter from U of M today notifying me that I am on pre-interview hold. I also got the same word un-officially from Drexel via the phone yesterday. : ( Beginning to lose faith... (12/1)
I spent the entire day hitting refresh on my e-mail, gave up in defeat at 5pm, and then discovered at 6pm that I had received the better post-interview notice from VCU: on hold for acceptance!! :) (10/19)
Two thin envelopes in the mail in two days: rejections from University of Washington, Seattle and Medical College of Wisconsin. (10/18)
Got a thin envelope in the mail today saying I was waitlisted at EVMS. (10/14)
The second invitation to interview is less exciting than the first but still welcome. VCU! (9/7)
My first interview! 3 cheers for EVMS! (08/31)
I expeditiously turned in all of the secondaries I received by the second week of August, and have been waiting for some word ever since. (08/22)
