Hi! I was verified 7/6 and haven’t received a confirmation or a link to the Elon status page. Just wanted to see if everyone else was in the same boat or if I should be worried? 

If you don’t hear from them soon I would reach out to confirm they got your application. I was verified 6/8 and got a confirmation email from them on 6/28, but someone above said they submitted their application later and got the confirmation email right away

I received an email stating they would download application materials early to mid august and email instructions on how to make an application portal late august. I hope that helps

I have not received a confirmation email but I did receive the email stating that their application process will be differrent this year and to not expect to hear from them until they start downloading apps in early to mid August.

Thank you for the advice! I emailed them last night and they responded this morning saying they have received my application but no confirmations or further instructions would be sent out until mid August!

Does anyone else’s portal say that the school hasn’t received a LOR from a PA/medical provider? I have one in CASPA but my portal is saying it’s missing for some reason. 

All my letters are received on the portal’s end. They might be automatically going by the “occupation” section the letter writer fills out on CASPA (which my PA LOR initially forgot to fill out). I’m sure they can correct it if you let them know!

Received a rejection from them today...good luck everyone!

 I am sorry to hear that! I just received a rejection from Duke 😞  When did you apply? I have yet to hear from them.

Good luck though and keep your head up! There are plenty of schools to apply too.
