patrick83 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 I was just about to do the same thing... I guess I won't bother now. Ahh! This has just up-ed the nerves 3 fold. As much as I want to know I'd kind of settled into the idea of an extra long weekend of blissful ignorance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w8kg6 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 FYI - I just called to see about changing the address my decision letter is being mailed to and they weren't too pleased as "the letters were all printed yesterday" What did they say about when they would be mailed? I'd speculate that it will be tomorrow or Monday, but again, that's just a guess. Did you hear anything more definite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keano16 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 FYI - I just called to see about changing the address my decision letter is being mailed to and they weren't too pleased as "the letters were all printed yesterday" Hmm...from this info you could conclude that the decisions have obviously been made and could have been sent by email yesterday... Seems like a needless delay if you ask me - if the decisions are made, why not send them out (by email)?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawDoc79 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Nothing was being offered up re: when they would be mailed but I'm in agreement with you that they will likely be mailed tomorrow or Monday. Let's hope so anyways... What did they say about when they would be mailed? I'd speculate that it will be tomorrow or Monday, but again, that's just a guess. Did you hear anything more definite?

xi88 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 This is insane. I liked it before when I knew that letters were mailed out on the 15th, so I'd know when to expect it. Now I have no idea when its coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xi88 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 /sigh, it's the week of February 9th all over again. not quite. You can only check your mailbox once a day, whereas you can check you email constantly. Therefore, I almost prefer getting the letter in the mail.....almost.

Canoe999 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 i've heard in the past emails were sent out to let us know that decisions have been made and are in the mail....any idea if this will be taking place again this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason for that is that the letters were sent out in batches in past years. Like, some were sent out in Feb, some in March, some in May. Since they're all being sent out at the same time this year, they may not send any emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whale.of.a.time Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 This is so nerve racking. My mail system is so ****ty in this apartment, the letters all end up in a communal lobby...on the floor...and then sometimes tracked back out onto the driveway with big footprints on them. Thank goodness for pm101, so that I will know when everyone else has received their letters so that I can call to get mine resent or pick it up or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w8kg6 Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 has anyone called this morning to see whether they were mailed on friday? or what their plan is if not? It seems you're interested to see. You should give them a call and let us know what you find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngdad Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Has anybody ever gotten through? I always get the answering machine. Though I haven't called in a couple weeks. I will be out of town on the 15th so I want to know my status electronically or over the phone. What is the standard procedure (forms, windows for accepting an offer, deposits, etc.) if I am accepted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be out of town on the 15th so I want to know my status electronically or over the phone. What is the standard procedure (forms, windows for accepting an offer, deposits, etc.) if I am accepted? I've managed to get through in the past week (see post above). As far as I know, the only thing they will require from you in the short term is a deposit reserving your seat. This requires you to give them a credit card number or cheque, and I think the window is 2 weeks (but, clearly, I've never been accepted, so this is far from certain).

asteur Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 did you call? like i said earlier... i'm at work most days during business hours and can't call, unfortunately. i'm not super worried about it anyway, i just wanted to know if anyone knew anything. we'll all know by the end of the week... or next week for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w8kg6 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Yeah, Dal is really on the ball about waitlist movement as well. I think they send out emails at the end of every week notifying applicants about where they stand as of that week. I'm sure this is at least partially self-serving, haha, since it stops a bunch of annoying calls from neurotic premeds (read: myself), but it's a nice thing to have.
