has anyone who interviewed for MD & PURCH in January heard back yet? I have only seen some MD As from Jan interviews so just wondering !
Interviewed for PURCH end of Jan and haven’t heard back! Assuming it’s because there’s two committees that would review our application.

Is it normal to not hear anything back, not even an AC, post interview?

I interviewed on 12/15.

Anyone in my position?
 
From what's on here, it seems pretty common this cycle for people to not hear anything back. I'm in your boat, interviewed 11/28 and haven't heard anything other than generic "wait until April" responses. They seem behind this cycle, so hopefully we'll get decisions soon!

"The University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) was established by the 162nd Massachusetts General Court in 1962 to provide residents of the commonwealth an opportunity to study medicine..."

*Completely ignores a vast majority of IS applicants who interviewed months ago*

*Quickly accepts many OOS applicants a couple weeks post-interview*

UMass, shame on you for straying so far from your original mission. While it is good to grow and adapt, it is not right to forget the intended purpose of this school and treat your IS applicants this way.

WL movement for this school is great, so it may feel sad rn, you’ll be okay. I’m wondering what this means for people who interviewed before this. Did we get the silent R
I think today might be a big decision day in general, not sure if As will be sent but I'm hoping it works out for everyone. My heart is with you all

where did you find the class page? I didn't see it on my second look email
 
OOS A just now. Interviewed Mid-February. It is very possible I pass on this A and hope it frees a spot for some IS folks.

Thanks for sharing. Maybe mine is also gonna take a long time since I also interviewed for Lahey and I interviewed in november and december..
 
Do people that have accepted admission offers also see “Decline after Acceptance” under Application Action? I’m paranoid I accidentally pressed the wrong button lol…also how long did it take to get the CORI forms? Thank you!

That's what mine looks like too. I think you can go to that tab to reject your offer after initially accepting it basically.
 
Does anyone know what their plan for financial aid is now that Netparter remains closed? Does it mean students have to make decisions without any financial aid information?

Do you think it will be a good idea to send a letter of intent at this point? They told me I'll hear back by end of Jan, but I haven't heard anything since interviewing on Nov and Dec. Umass is my top choice school but I also don't want to seem too desperate idk if that is good.
 
Looks like on cycletrack they have been sending rejections :oops:

I don't think it can hurt you as long as you really mean it! I sent one
