Super bummed about this pre-II R. I am from Albany and would have loved to attend med school in my hometown!
are they done giving out interview invites? am i just expecting an R at this pointThey reviewed 14,000 applications, interviewed 800 people, rejected everyone else and its only middle of September.....
Yes e-mail at 12:44PM today. Complete 08/12For those who got Pre-II Rejections did they email you? Also when were you complete?
I was complete in July and haven't heard anything yet. Maybe it's a good thing?I wasn't complete until 8/15 but I haven't heard anything yet.
Same! Just radio silence…I wasn't complete until 8/15 but I haven't heard anything yet.
Based on the email, thats the message I got but I could be wrong.are they done giving out interview invites? am i just expecting an R at this point
an R email?Based on the email, thats the message I got but I could be wrong.
Same complete 7/24 and still heard nothingI was complete in July and haven't heard anything yet. Maybe it's a good thing?
Agree. Looked at last years thread and they were offering interviews into DecemberI feel like there is no way they are done giving out II's yet
MD programs can't even announce regular decision results until mid-OctoberAny acceptance!!
Except for ED I believe. Which I am clueless about TBH+1 for July completion with silence

Sheesh. I rather just get the R than hear nothing back.For context, I am a reapplication here and never heard back from the school last cycle
Seems like they do that a lot. Some people got secondary refunds for not hearing backFor context, I am a reapplication here and never heard back from the school last cycle
Complete 8/13. Email received at 11:44 central.For those who got Pre-II Rejections did they email you? Also when were you complete?
hey i want my refund lmao, I did not hear a peep last cycleSeems like they do that a lot. Some people got secondary refunds for not hearing back
I don’t think I received a complete email either—you just need to make sure that you finalize your app after submitting…Does Albany send complete emails? I haven't received mine... should i email or call the school's admissions office about this or will this annoy them?
Hi! Just wondering where you found this out!They reviewed 14,000 applications, interviewed 800 people, and its only middle of September.....

Ok whew! Glad to know i'm not the only one... thanks!I don’t think I received a complete email either—you just need to make sure that you finalize your app after submitting…
They sent out their first IIs in mid-late august. With a holiday weekend in between, if you truly believe the Adcom interviewed 800 people as of Wednesday idk what to tell you lmaoIn their rejection email
Albany received 11344 applications and interviewed 726 people last cycle in TOTAL. Its literally September relax everyone. Just trying to dispel any fear and neuroticism the previous poster might elicitThey haven’t interviewed 800 applicants.....
It’s the rejection letter given at the end of the cycle. They prob just too lazy to personalize it for different circumstances.

I think we were in the same session and oof is right wow.Big oof on that interview I think I bombed it
I'm sure you two did better than you think!! Why the oofs though!?I think we were in the same session and oof is right wow.
Please tell you didn't hear a kid screaming from somewhere with that first presentation. My friend came over to watch him and didn't realize how loud he was being.I think we were in the same session and oof is right wow.
for the 1pm session? haha i didn't hear any kid in the background!Please tell you didn't hear a kid screaming from somewhere with that first presentation. My friend came over to watch him and didn't realize how loud he was being.
Cool lol I asked her to take him outside for the rest of it. I'm not too optimistic about that interview though.for the 1pm session? haha i didn't hear any kid in the background!
they definitely aren't done. I got an II from Albany in January last cycle!I feel like there is no way they are done giving out II's yet
Honestly if you had an excuse for a single section maybe (I write about CARS because I’m dyslexic so it’s super difficult) but I wouldn’t really talk about how you should have done better. It comes off bad, especially because standardized tests like the MCAT demonstrate motivation for perhaps the STEP exams. Take this as you will.Albany secondary application site down?
Question: for the question asking about academic inconsistencies, If I got a 504 (124 in chem/phys) but have a 3.8 cgpa should I answer the prompt? I can't think of valid enough reasons to explain away the low score (my FLs were higher, COVID made studying difficult, I studied chem and physics but it wasn't my day: I'm not sure these are good enough)
They interview to the end of March I believe.they definitely aren't done. I got an II from Albany in January last cycle!
+1 OOS URM non-traditional studentII just now!! IS URM complete 7/15
