    Good morning,

    How many programs send out rejection letters?

    We stopped but we have been getting a ton of requests on invites this morning.

    Thank you all in advance.

    We send out rejection notices right after we send our interview invites. We’ve found that if everyone is notified of their status on the same day, it helps to cut down on email inquiries.

    Thank you,

    We send them out after the Invitations as well. Less confusion and less emails to handle.

    We did. Everyone gets an email – invitation, waitlist, rejection. It definitely cuts down on the number of emails/inquiries. The only people who have contacted me were on the WL – expressing continued interest.

    Hello,

    I send out rejection emails and I still got emails today from students expressing their continued interest.  I think they thought if they sent me an email at noon today, I would slide them into an open spot.  It doesn’t work like that!

    Same as others, we send out notifications to everyone on 11/18.  It definitely cuts down on people asking about things and CORD recommends that too.

    Same with us, everyone gets a notification of interview status.

    We send out:

    – Invitations – spelling out the AOA CORD UOD guidelines

    – Alternate / Waitlist emails

    – specialized emails for rotators or prior interviewees that did not receive a formal invitation

    – rejection emails

    Emails are sent out on UOD.

    I am still fielding emails and phone calls.

    We also send rejection and waitlist notices in addition to the invites. Agree with others – it reduces confusion for everyone to receive some communication one way or the other.

    We did. All applicants receive a ERAS correspondence – invitation, waitlist, rejection. I agree that it definitely cuts down on the number of emails/inquiries.
