Trying to hold onto every last bit of hope that I can Congrats again to those of you who were chosen!! I’m trying to figure that out too. I’m assuming we will get a letter in the mail. Whether it be acceptance, rejection, waitlist, etc. Avery made it sound like we were basically going to be accepted or waitlisted. But they also said they’d call us earlier this week so I don’t think anything is set in stone! I know I’m bummed I haven’t heard back but I am truly stoked and proud of all of those that were accepted!! I’m not going to stop here! I’ll definitely apply again. Everyone is so awesome.

Congrats again who got the call Great attitude to keep working towards it! I've applied three times and I finally got an acceptance this year! As far as I understand it, and this isn't 100% certain, the waitlist is more of a "hold" list because you can be put on that list when there are still lots of seats open. I believe they only instantly take about a dozen or so from the first interview, release those that are declined this year and then the other 1/3 or so get put on the hold list. They'll send out a letter in the mail to let you know your standing and it'll likely arrive next week (according to people I've talked to that got on the hold list before). Then when they conduct the second round interviews in December, they take another dozen or so instantly and then divide the rest up like they did in the first round. After that, they take both groups of holds and go through them all again and decide who gets the rest of the spots. As Avery Batts mentioned during our interview last week, no one on the "hold" list is ranked. They will look at your file from the hold list in it's entirety and decide from there. A girl that's in didactic year right now at Spokane campus didn't find out until MARCH 1ST that she got a seat! That's the day online classes started! Lots didn't find out they were off the hold list until January. I know it's frustrating to wait and just not know but soon you'll know if you're on the hold list and that there's a very good chance of coming off of it still. Good luck to everyone still waiting!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info Julie! I am a first round Medex applicant and trying to stay positive. This was an incredible experience and it's great to hear how much this program values re-applicants and those on the hold list. I appreciate you taking the time to spread this knowledge. Best of luck to you and congratulations on your acceptance!! Jenn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaurenDickson82 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 hi all! I was just wondering how many people were at the interview last week and about how many got acceptance notices? I am still holding out for the next round of interviews. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elra1983 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I would say there were 40-50 people there for the interviews. So far there are only 8 or 9 people that have joined the FB group for it, but that's not to say that there aren't others who were accepted but don't follow this forum.

I just looked at my interview assignment sheet from last weekend and there were 36 applicants. So far, there’s 11 of us on our class Facebook group. Previous students said that take usually 10-15 people in the first round of acceptance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
