If I signed up for interest in the MPH program, am I interviewing for the MD/MPH thing?? Or just MD?

I think I’m out of luck here. Oh well. Good luck to those who are interviewing in February!

II few hours ago. IS. Available dates are February 23rd and 26th. Completed early July. I have 10+ years of strong ties to Emory like multiple years of research, attended various summer courses/camps and competitions/tournaments. This is my first choice school. Extremely happy to get this II.

Your one on one interviewer only has your personal statement. The group interviewers don't know anything about you but get to look at your file briefly once the interview is over. If they have a question then they can call you back in, but it seems like that rarely happens

My group interviewers had read my personal statement
 
I have received a lot of weird emails this cycle, but this email is something else. :wtf:

I just received this email for a program I didn't even apply to.
"Dear ,

Please continue to check your "To Do" list in opus for any other outstanding items which you may need to complete. In order to keep track of the status of your application be sure to check OPUS frequently.

It didn't have my name in the email.

Man, that's annoying! I remember calling the office (finally) after receiving my second notice that I was almost late on submitting my financial aid documents, and the person I talked was clearly frustrated with the situation. Did you check the "MPH" option on the application?

No! Been in silence since July. It is OK I lost hope in this school anyway and unwatched the thread. But this email was really annoying.

Also, my favorite email this year has been Columbia's - just after they stopped sending interviews - they wanted me to look into their masters program that helped people looking to get into medical school. Funny guys, funny...

Yeah i got a few similar emails, but none of them decided to apply for me without asking. The worst mistake i made this cycle was allowing amcas to release my mcat score.

Anyone who interviewed on February 2nd hear anything? From what we were told I'm guessing decisions were sent out snail mail yesterday. Based on information found on this thread we should see a portal change today or tomorrow.:xf::xf:

In my head: A really good medical school that I want to go to will see my MCAT score and send me an email to recruit me

In reality: A really good medical school that I want to go to will see my MCAT score and spam me emails to recruit me to apply to their special masters programs

Or send you 19 emails asking you to apply to their medical program, when they refuse to send you a secondary application (I'm looking at you Vanderbilt), right before rejecting you just a few weeks later...

If I interviewed late Jan and haven't seen a portal update is it safe to say I'll just have to wait till the next release date? Just trying to see if the portal update before an acceptance is universal
 
I checked my interview packet today and saw that March 5th is the last time the admission committee meets. Good luck to everyone still waiting post interview! We've got one more chance fam!

Since Emory uses snail mall to notify people of acceptances, almost everyone sees the portal update before they get the letter in the mail. Sounds like portals update at noon the day after the admissions committee meets so that would have been on Tuesday
 
Withdrew my II today, best of luck to everyone!

Is second look really in March 15? I've heard no word of it and figured with it so close they'd have something.
 
I swear to god if I get one more financial aid email from this school without an interview invite...

If you prefer, you can send an email to the sender's email id with "Remove Me From Financial Aid - ID: xxxx" in the subject line so that they will remove your email id from the mailing list. I just sent this Remove email to them.

I received an email recently stating that the Emory Revisited weekend (their version of second look) is March 15-16. I received the email from the multicultural medical student affairs office.

Anybody know where I can find Emory’s match list?
Click to expand...
They also have it posted on their website, though not in traditional "list" format. It's an interactive map that you can click to see match locations/specialties. To get there, go to Emory's SOM page. Then click "Education". Then on the right-hand side, click "Emory DOCS". On that page, there is a link that says "Match Results".
 
I know the last interview day is next week, but does anyone know if there is a particular day of the week that IIs are sent out?

With the last interview date being next week does that mean everyone who has an II will have been notified already. AKA can I unwatch this thread now

Pretty sure the mass rejection will come out end of March. Although the last interview date is Monday so if you didn't get an ii you can assume its an R.
