soraya1217 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I just got an email to, saying my application was on "hold". I keep sending Michael an email to update my application and I get an automated email back. Does that mean he gets the email?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david89 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 got that hold email as well....i guess it's better than a rejection lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly2390 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Same here...my Sci GPA is a tad lower than 3.40, bummer! But here's to hoping we still have a shot. I'm surprised because they typically interview around 500 applicants..And Soraya I got the automated email response also, it's just meant to show us that it is extremely busy for him to respond right now since it is so busy so to expect a response within 72 hours.

shana001 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I just received an email saying that I too am placed on the "hold" list. I interviewed last year back in January and was put on the alternate list. In the email, it said that they were granting interviews to applicants with a GPA of 3.4 or higher then they would start looking at applicants on the hold list. Hopefully they give most of the people on a "hold" an interview! Keeping my fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaaldana Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I got a hold email as well. Fingers crossed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarinalynn Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Looks like a bunch of us got the "hold" email today. I actually got two emails, about 35 minutes apart. First one stated that my status was "hold", second one discussed the hold because of GPA a lower than 3.4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaaldana Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 yeah, same here...two separate emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shana001 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Nope they gave me an interview around this time, I don't think there was a "hold" list for the interviews last year or the previous years. They must have had a lot more applicants or they're just doing their process a lot different... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lex1283 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I got the email as well. Are you guys sending any new grades to the admissions counselors or to the EDS email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khushbu09 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Yup, got the same emails, at least it's not a rejection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcheslop Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 When they say "science GPA" are they referring to the science classes that are in the pre-reqs, or any science class you have ever taken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly2390 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I think all science classes you've ever taken... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinara Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Yeah they started this new thing this year where they are interviewing people first solely based on GPAs. My question is are there any more interviews and is there any hope for us that are on the hold list. I tried to contact both Jeanne and Michael, the admissions counselors, and no responses from either of them. Sadness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
