I stand corrected! When did you hear back?
So safe to say everyone getting interviews was accepted already? Sounds about right. Thinking good thoughts...Also heard back yesterday

For those of who have been offered a UMED interview already:
1) How long did it take to hear back?
2) What was your admissions status? Accepted? Pending?
Quick question on SPP - Is this just a Chicago campus thing? Does anyone know how many students they give this option to?I found a link to the program...it doesnt say much

Also - Interview end of Feb, Wish I remembered my status but it changed today to "Decision Pending"...come on Correspondence tab....Big Money Big Money!
also having trouble activating the accountIs anyone else having trouble activating their UIC portal accounts? I got the email with my id number a few days ago but it seems like the activation link keeps stalling.
EDIT: also, for financial aid -- you only have to submit a FAFSA -- I spoke with the financial aid office last week with the same question
also having trouble activating the account
just got my finacial aid award.. two loans covering the 30K per semester.
As far as I know, both of these loans aren't need based. That said maybe I just didn't qualify for the need based aid.Is there need-based aid available through this system.
+1just got my finacial aid award.. two loans covering the 30K per semester.
I don't have much experience dealing with loans. Should we accept all of them? Even if we think housing will be cheaper
Mine says the same thing but it gives me an option to change the campus (asking me to confirm if I was actually placed in Chicago) I haven't even gotten my placement card yet so Idk how accurate that is.So I haven't received my placement yet, but I was checking around the student portal, and in the student information I see "campus: Chicago." Does this mean I'm placed in Chicago or does it say that for everyone else?
EDIT: Looked around some more and it looks like I was placed in the Chicago track!!!
I haven't submitted my rankings yet and mine says "Current College of Medicine Site/Track is Chicago" but also has a button under it that says "Click here to Change your Track". All that said that new COM Chicago tab (I don't have that) makes it seem like you have some good news on the way.I just checked the "UIC Connect" tab under my.uic.edu, which said "Current track is Chicago." Other tabs mention the campus:Chicago thing, and I got a new tab said "COM Chicago." I actually submitted my rankings fairly recently, so hopefully I'm not reading too much into everything.
Looked at financial aid today. Withdrawing ASAP. Didn't receive the instate tuition rate and the out of state rate isn't worth it to go here. Lol 94k in just loans for one year is ridiculous.
Interviewed in December, received 2 "no final decision" emails so far. Is UIC receptive to letter of interests/intents? When I called them, the person I spoke with said there was no way to add material to our electronic files.I interviewed in Peoria back in October and I am still "Decision Pending." I guess I've made it through 4 ADCOM meetings with them deferring their decision on my app. Anyone else that interviewed in the fall still hanging on? Already sent two follow up emails expressing my interest in UIC COM...should I contact admissions again to let them know I'm still interested?

Please be the day.....
I'm not sure, but I guess it can't hurt to send one anyway. They told me at my interview I'd know in a month...5 months later still waiting. I wonder what percentage of apps they make no decision on at each ADCOM meeting. Anyone else still hanging on? I'd be okay with having no luck on my March madness bracket as long as it's being used at the ADCOM meeting today.Interviewed in December, received 2 "no final decision" emails so far.

Anyone from the last March acceptance get their placement card in the mail?? My mailman keeps delivering my mail to the wrong house so I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss this. Thanks!
R u still attending? I'm out of state too...Also just saw my financial aid, OOS. 97K in loans..
Yup, I'm still attending! It's my only acceptance and I really liked the school. I guess I'll just have to deal with the loansR u still attending? I'm out of state too...

+1 Apparently they are interviewing today. I'm really surprised.No post yet. Hopefully by the end of the day.
Me too. I met with an admissions counselor and he said they haven't even opened my file yet. Complete in November. :/ He said because my app was submitted so late they haven't gotten to it yet. Seems bleak, doesnt it!I wanted to know if anyone else is in the similar boat as I am. Sent my secondary in 10/31 and still have "Applicant in Progress" with no interview.... anyone.... anyone....
