Super windy where I'm at. I'd love to say I'd take any position they offer but if I get surgery, I just cannot do it. This is the girl who had to be knocked out getting her braces off because all the grinding and polishing noises made her have a panic attack and who can't watch or listen to bone saws even on TV. I was able to observe a autopsy but I think that's because it wasn't live tissue.

I wonder if the quick response to whoever got an email already was due to an incomplete application? I would think that because they apparently do things based on a points system they'd have to review everyone's app first before notifying anyone of any decisions.

I was thinking the same thing because one of my friends applied on the very last day too, but she still hasn't heard back from them yet

Does anyone know if we find out by email no matter what or only an email if we aren't accepted? I read some of last years posts and they got an email if they were rejected and a package in the mail if they were accepted.. Just curious!

I know we for sure get an e-mail if we are rejected but I'm not positive about getting an e-mail if we are accepted. I would assume so?? Like an e-mail saying we are accepted and then the packet comes?? I do know that some people's job status or whatnot changed on-line last year. From "Application in review" to "Interview" or something. There is no interview process, but that just meant that they had been accepted. I know some people ended up calling LaTasha to ask about it and she told them whether or not they were in! But yes, you do obviously get a package if you are accepted!

@MissRN2013 I called them today, they are eliminating all the ppl who do not meet the basic requirements, and the reviewing process starts on the 28th of Jan.

Two reasons I was rejected: 1) International student, they don't sponsor work permit; 2) I'm a LPN, I can't practice with my licence, has to be a student without a licence, and pratice under their preceptor's licence. :(

I applied to the Mayo Clinic for 2013's Summer III Externship. Under job status submission my application status states "Application in Review". I feel like that is not a good thing, according to people's comments from last year. Does anybody know if this status can change from "Application in Review" to "Interview"?

Do you know if they are eliminating based on GPA as well? Is there a cut-off GPA that you know of?

I'm not aware of a cut off GPA--from reading about the past years, it looks like they take very high GPAs though. As for your other question, I'm pretty sure everyone's application says "application in review"! That just means they're looking over everyone's applications before making a decision. :)

Thanks :) I wish you the best of luck! And it would be amazing to get in, but I'm not counting on it based on the competitive nature of the program. My GPA is a 3.74, which seems on the lower spectrum of what they accept. All I can do is hope for the best expect the worse. But regardless of if we get into this program or not, there are MANY other summer externship opportunities. We will all be fine one way or another ;)
