musicaldna Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 The dream is dead.... Oh well. Sorry to hear this Rach. So it seems that most of us active Canadians on this forum have been rejected by Mayo. Looks like they gave out very few interviews to internationals.

foregoneconclusion Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I just got "small pooled" at Rosalind Franklin which apparently is not a bad thing....

token Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Ahhh! There goes my shot post-LOR. Ok, and I said this before, but I am fairly certain Mayo doesn't take international students. Someone said they changed their policy but I didn't (and still don't) buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said they changed their policy but I didn't (and still don't) buy it. Someone on the boards said they asked and Mayo confirmed. They then deleted it and I was suspicious that they wanted to give themselves an advantage. I called and they confirmed to me as well. But it looks unlikely with the calibre of students receiving rejections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said they changed their policy but I didn't (and still don't) buy it. That makes me feel good. But I think it was the LOR requests they sent out that got our hopes up. Maybe they were expecting to see something extraordinary in the PS or the LORs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madskillz99 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 After my discussions with Marcy from Mayo...they do take international students and do provide significant financial aid to Canadians. And they also read the PS both before the LOR request and again once the letters are in. But as mentioned, Mayo is among the most selective schools in the country, something like 2.5% of applicants only? So I supppose this is to be expected. I'm just crossing my fingers here..
