Anyone receive the MPH/Rural Med info session still have silence from Upstate? I’m assuming it’s a silent R at this point but not sure why they sent me that email.

I did too. Saw email from admissions and it said like "Congratulations, we're excited to invite you to.. I thought it was an II. Then I opened up the email and its just an invitation to their MPH info session...lol

Wait how? I got an invite last week and the earliest date was February. I also went on the waitlist to get an earlier date but haven't heard back about openings so I'm so confused

 

[Yousee]

Has anyone interviewed in December received decisions yet?

 

[aspiringmed23]

Is it true that the waitlist at upstate is ranked and they don't re-review apps so sending an LOI if you get waitlisted doesn't hold any weight? I heard that from a video with the team like 10 years ago so not sure if that changed.

When they emailed me back the other day they said “We are continuing to re-review applications and extend invitations.” So take that as you will.

I’m still on hold. Planning on sending an update letter soon.

I'm also still on hold.

 

[Benzene1]

is it worth submitting an update letter if I am on hold? I have a few manuscripts that were submitted for publication

I did and never heard anything back after doing so, but it can't hurt I feel so why not Put your best foot forward and keep reminding them you exist lol

 

[med229]

I'm also still on hold.

+1, submitted in September. Just hope we hear something soon :/

 

[passionfroot]

I share your hope here. But to set realistic expectations there's a youtube video of an interview from 2020 with the admissions dean - she said that if apps aren't in by latest august there's a very low chance of getting an interview unless you have pretty strong ties to the school or region. They just run out of slots, and their adcom utilizes a ranked list, so once they get to a certain point, you're dead in the water.
I'm not sure why they don't just send out Rs at that point, but I guess it ain't over til it's over!

 

[coolgirlxx]

pre-ii IS R just now LOL, before that just had silence since September submission

 

[Fatpat13]

Just got put on hold. Just happy the silence is broken
