Congratulations!! It’s so nice to get acceptances so early on!
Can we assume if we didn’t get the call from Ms. Ripa that we were rejected? Does anyone if all the calls were made? Did anyone get a rejection email yet?
BAMDHopeful thanks for the reply.
If I recall she said a call was the method of notifying acceptance but maybe she isn’t done making them, so don’t lose hope.
Also @BAMDHopeful should we start a group chat, someone from RIT also made it
@PathophysiologyFTW
Thank you, still hoping to get that phone call.
@PathophysiologyFTW good idea! Just tag me along if you have a group chat.
@sirche I would think it’s still early in the process. Keep your hopes up!
Are they still sending out interview requests? I submitted my supplemental on Jan 21, so I’m hoping I hear back from them soon (I applied through Adelphi). Is anyone aware of a later interview date? Also, will they let you know if you don’t get an interview?
Yes there are three interview dates, the last one is in early March I think. Don’t stress too much because they aren’t going to accept everyone from the first waves, I’ve already heard that someone got rejected from first interview batch
@collegeappvibes I think there is one interview in early March.
Does anyone know how many people applied to the Upstate BS/MD program? Has anyone called and asked?
@PathophysiologyFTW 4,000+ application this season. 160 invited for interview.
Is that for the med school or bsmd?
Jeez that is a lot
Hello folks, has anyone received detailed offer of acceptance in email yet? Also, has anyone received any rejection emails? Thanks.
The above numbers are for the regular MD program. Upstate gets around 4,000 applications per year. Up to 900 applicants get invited for an interview, and approx 160 get accepted.
As the newly launched BSMD program at Upstate gains traction, the applicant numbers would be very volatile. Hence, in my opinion, for the first couple of years, the BSMD applicant numbers might not serve as a good indicator.
@screenshot,
Ms. Ripa calls those who get accepted and e-mail those who get rejected. If one hasn’t heard anything, there is still hope. She has asked those who got accepted to respond to her within two weeks of acceptance.
@sirche,
Ms. Ripa clearly stated that she calls those who clearly shine above others interviewees and e-mail those who are for sure she will reject. Once again, if you haven’t heard, you are still in the game. She may wait until after March interview to make that final decision on those who are in between.
Which undergrad school did you get in for upstate?
Polytechnic
Thanks. Do they give full ride?
