Has anyone gone from alternate to accepted recently?
Nothing here yet either. Do you think it will be this week? or the holidays push everything back?Has anyone who interviewed 12/11 heard back yet? I know technically they said 4-6 weeks, but I know a few early December folks heard before the holidays so I've been sitting on pins and needles waiting.
Honors (top 15% of the class), pass, fail.Is Albany pass/fail?
oofHigh pass (top 15% of the class), pass, fail.
Been complete since 7/18 and radio silence since.primary app. submitted 9/1 | app completed 12/2
How long did it take for people to hear back after submitting their secondary app?
Oh jeez... I don't want to be rude because I did submit mine so recently, but have you thought about calling?? That's a wildly prolonged period of time :/Been complete since 7/18 and radio silence since.
Submitted most of mine in July and I’ve had radio silence from over 20 schools. I’ve never heard of anyone calling, wouldn’t even know what you’d say, and I feel like that wouldn’t be well-received. Especially from schools who do not accept updates of any kind.Oh jeez... I don't want to be rude because I did submit mine so recently, but have you thought about calling??

Yeah also submitted mine July and I have silence from almost 25 schools. Rejections tend to go out at the end of the cycle for a majority of schools so silence is completely normal.Submitted most of mine in July and I’ve had radio silence from over 20 schools.

Schools say feel free to call admissions but we cannot give status of where your application stands. Seriously ? Why else would we really call if we haven’t heard anything from them? We won’t call to ask what they had for breakfast lolSubmitted most of mine in July and I’ve had radio silence from over 20 schools.

I interviewed in December and heard back 2 weeks later!
I know several other medical schools that definitely receive many calls from applicants daily, so I'm not sure about Albany but I know it's not unheard of. I think it's definitely something you have to be careful with since it can be received poorly. However, given the length of time that's passed, I feel as though it would be perfectly appropriate to inquire about the status of your application, since you submitted it many months ago. Also, if it were me, I would ask if there is anything I can do in the meantime, as well as re-confirm your interest in the school with the admissions office to remind them you exist lol... again, be cautious with this because too much is a lot worse than nothing at all, but I think one call would be perfectly acceptable in my opinion as a fellow-applicant at least! But regardless, good luck!Submitted most of mine in July and I’ve had radio silence from over 20 schools.

anyone out there who did not get a single interview invite this cycle?
Have you received the acceptance recently?Is there a groupme for accepted students?

Not this cycle, but last cycle. I strongly recommend you ask everyone who rejects you to meet with you and provide feedback unless they specifically say they won't - I did that and it helped me make a huge difference even though I only got actionable feedback from a couple schools.anyone out there who did not get a single interview invite this cycle?
When is their deadline to submit primary and secondaryMe until until last week. I was bailed out by Belmont.
Per their site, you have until 29 February to send your AMCAS and 15 March to send your secondary. I would highly recommend you not wait that long though - for most schools, it wouldn't even be worth applying this late, but for a brand-new program, I'd imagine the rule of thumb may not apply. If you don't have any interviews in the pipeline and can afford to add it, it can't hurt.When is their deadline to submit primary and secondary

A received just now! Interviewed 1/12.
I was accepted right out. I was kinda surprised since I only interviewed 2 weeks ago and they said that 80+% of the class comes from the alternate list so I was expecting to hear that I got on AL in about 2-4 more weeks. Pleasantly surprised though!Congrats! Were you pulled from the Alternate List or accepted right out?
