Just withdrew! Good luck to all of you on the waitlist!
What's the difference between post-interview hold and wait-list????[/QUOTE
I was just about to ask the same thing
So I got the same hold e mail everyone else here got at 1:45 pm from the admissions committee. I then got another e mail at 3:30 about the accelerated 3+3 family medicine track that said "Congratulations on your acceptance to Penn State", but that was sent by Shou Ling Leong, M.D. Director Family Medicine Accelerated Program @ Penn State. I'm so confused right now.Post-interview hold. Interviewed late March.

Welp now the 3+3 program invite invitation has been recalled, twice actually. Way to take me on a weird emotional roller coaster Penn State!So I got the same hold e mail everyone else here got at 1:45 pm from the admissions committee.

Thanks for checking !Confirmed with Corrine. Do not fill this out or call unless you get an acceptance. This was a false alarm for those of us on hold.
When did you interview ?Is there anyone still waiting for post II decision?
Good Luck with your studies!Officially withdrew my acceptance. Penn State gave me the most money of all the schools that accepted me, but the location is not a great fit for me. Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back!
I interviewed early march and was placed on hold. I'm bummed out because I still don't have an MD acceptance and I felt like this one was my best interview yet. I've had 5 interviews: of those 2 rejections and 3 holds/waitlists. At this point it's getting depressing guys
Thank you. And yes I did send letters to the other two schools. But not penn state as I just now got put on the hold list. Will be sending a letter of intent shortly. I need a miracle.Stay strong! There should be significant waitlist movement beginning next week. Did you send them a letter of update/ intent or anything?
Only acceptance. People can withdraw from waitlist anytime.Guys,
Does anyone know if one has to withdraw from waitlist before today, or is that only acceptances?
Only acceptance. People can withdraw from waitlist anytime.
Is it an online withdraw or is it through email phone etc
Do we need to send the LOI if being put on hold? since the hold email says "You should be aware that a subsequent decision will be based on the information presently contained in your file with the exception of updated official transcript records."
And how can we know if they receive the LOI or not after sending it?
As far as I know they accept LOI after April 30th
I called yesterday. The office told me they do accept LOIs now.Where did you hear this? I emailed them and they told me only grade updates after the 30th

From MSAR, 25-35 will be taken off. 25 were taken off last year.Any ideas on how many of us are on the waitlist and how many will be taken off?
The thing is that not all people who were put on hold receive that 3+ 3 program. I guess it's just sent to those who checked the box in the secondary app. So the number would be much greater than that I thinkWhen they sent out the mistake emails about the 3+3 program, in one of the emails the recipients weren't hidden and I believe there were around 170 recipients. Not sure if everyone on the hold list got that email, so at least 170 people would be my guess.
For sure, that's why I said at least 170 and said I wasn't sure if everyone got that email. I only know that I received it and saw over 170 others did.
I mean I guess if you insist, I'll take itI just withdrew my acceptance today, after getting in off the WL at my dream school. I hope my spot goes to someone who will appreciate it!
