Just curious - who reads these applications ? The graduate school or medical school?
If I remember correctly, they both work on it together but the medical school committee also checks as the students will be incoming med students after successful completion so they have a say with the incoming medical school classJust curious - who reads these applications ? The graduate school or medical school?
Based on the feedback during the information sessions and interview day, the medical school makes the decision on admission to the program; this makes sense as these students have been conditionally admitted to their upcoming class. The role of the graduate school seems largely administrative; this is not to undermine the significance of their role at all as they seem to play the very important student affairs function for these students who aren’t technically medical students yet.Just curious - who reads these applications ?

Hi! Yes, they emphasize that it's a medical school interview since you get the acceptance into their medical school for the following yearthanks for the reply guys! Are interviews also conducted by the medical school?
Thank you for clarifying my misunderstanding!Hi! Yes, they emphasize that it's a medical school interview since you get the acceptance into their medical school for the following year
I did. Nothing at all :,(For anyone who submitted their application on the day of the deadline - have you heard back yet ?
I believe the last day to interview is Monday so unless they have more dates I think this is the case. I assume that those people who interview next week are already scheduled.Is it safe to assume that they won’t be extending any more interviews?
I was extended an interview on 5/8/24. I submitted 4/12/24For anyone who submitted their application on the day of the deadline - have you heard back yet ?

Thank you. I’ll just wait and see. I also don’t want to stay in delulu land if you know what I mean lol 😅I believe the last day to interview is Monday so unless they have more dates I think this is the case. I assume that those people who interview next week are already scheduled.
Thank you!hmm no idea. The email I got from dpms said interviews until end of may but idk what end of May is for them. That could be next week (the 20th) or the following .
I’m honestly kinda surprised that there are so many of us that haven’t heard anything back (rejection or interview). Sadness.I want to reach out about a rejection or interview but don’t want to be annoying 😭

I really hope they put us out of our misery today 🥲
I was really hoping we would get decisions today for people who interviewed in April the wait continues...
Be patient. The first person who posted an A in the the thread last year said the email came at 4:38PM ET. Maybe it’s not today, maybe it is next week, but the day isn’t over.I was really hoping we would get decisions today for people who interviewed in April the wait continues...

It’s okay to be sad/upset, if you are. I’ve said it many times but this timeline is harsh and makes it difficult to plan ahead. Patience can only do so much… hopefully Drexel can better streamline the progress to give students more wiggle roomI was really hoping we would get decisions today for people who interviewed in April the wait continues...
Ty for that ♥️Be patient. The first person who posted an A in the the thread last year said the email came at 4:38PM ET. Maybe it’s not today, maybe it is next week, but the day isn’t over.
Not so much upset, but a little anxious. I have a couple of big decisions that I have to make soon, some academic, some personal, and pretty much all of those decisions depend on whether I get into this program or not. The timeline really does make it difficult to plan ahead! But I know that what is meant to be, will be. I'm going to try not to check SDN anymore until I hear directly from Drexel. Good luck to everyone that is waiting to hear back, my fingers are crossed that we'll all be colleagues in the future 🤞It’s okay to be sad/upset, if you are.

They are on par with our year but definitely doing better with timing compared to previous years.. trust me!It seems like they are behind/delayed on the process this year more than other previous cycle years
I remember reading an old thread and I think someone said their decision was sent on a Sunday, not too sure tho.Do you think they would possibly send decisions over the weekend?
Has anyone gotten an A yet?

Checked my portal and it still says a decision hasn’t been made
I interviewed on April 17. Was really hoping today would be the day as I would have to plan a move across the country and would like to know whether I will be submitting a med school app or not but I can wait a little longerYea same, if you don't mind, when did you interview?
This is just assumption based off what I’ve seen and what people are posting. Not 100% for sure. Stay positive.Thank you. I’ll just wait and see. I also don’t want to stay in delulu land if you know what I mean lol 😅
Congratulations!I interviewed April 15th. I just got into medical school so I’ll be withdrawing my application from DPMS. I really hope you all here good news soon and are able to partake in this amazing program! Good luck everyone!
(Also to help with clarification, I took the Casper May 2023 for the 2023-2024 cycle and because I sent it to Drexel, they said that the score will suffice for the Casper Requirement even though I took it during the last application cycle.)
Interviews should go throughout the last week of May on every Monday and WednesdayIs it safe to assume that they won’t be extending any more interviews?
Pretty Low Stats but cgpa: 3.33 sgpa: 3.1 MCAT: 495Those that got interviews do you mind sharing stats? Would appreciate it!
cGgpa: 2.9, sGPA: 3.01. MCAT:499 I’m a reapplicant, so I really focused on making my personal statement explain my motivation for medicine.Those that got interviews do you mind sharing stats? Would appreciate it!
This. This is wild. I’m hoping that she is keeping it intentionally vague because the information she has is vague and that it doesn’t take them three more weeks to send out decisions.The first wave of decisions were already out at this time last year so I wonder what the hold up is
