Ya seriously! I know someone that got an interview already.. so it is worrying me..
The patience.......the wait........everything was complete 1st week of September......gah!
I was there this Wednesday too! I'm hoping they will meet on Monday since it is the last week of the month. Then we will find out by Wednesday or Thursday! But not sure when they are starting the October interviews so it may still be about 2 weeks. I thought the school was amazing. And the interview was very relaxed for those wondering.
Hey Echiko. So you are correct in that it is not an MMI, it is a two faculty to one student interview. The interview is about 20 to 30 minutes long. When I interviewed over two years ago it was very casual and they just had my supplemental application (MWU no longer has a supplemental app) and asked me questions about myself. I am now a student ambassador and have heard from other interviewees that sometimes ask animal ethics questions, but still overall they say it is a relaxed and comfortable interview. Every faculty member who interviews students is extremely nice and caring, they are not in there to trick you or challenge you. They just want to get a sense of who you are as a person, because they already know who you are on paper. Hope that was helpful!I don't know if anyone who has previously interviewed is able to answer this...but just wondering what kind of interview Midwestern does? Doesn't sound like it's MMI. Is it just talking about your application - experience, interest...throw in some current events in such? Thanks for any input!
Those that have interviewed, remember to keep an eye on your portal. When I interviewed I saw the portal change about one week before I received a phone call/email and letter.

Thanks for the tip! I check my portal twice a day
I was in the first group (Sep. 7th) as well and haven't heard anything either!! I really hope we hear soon, I'm so anxious!
Yup! I'm hoping that when they meet again to discuss acceptances they will also review some more files for interviews! I'm sure that they are swamped with apps after the VMCAS deadline though.Hey everyone, I submitted my app on Sept. 13th, and I received an email on Sept. 17th from Midwestern saying my application was complete and they received everything. I have not heard anything from them since about an interview or anything. Anyone else in the same boat? I hope I hear something soon! I would love to get an interview, I have heard so many great things about this school!

My dates are about the same and I have not heard anything else yet.Hey everyone, I submitted my app on Sept. 13th, and I received an email on Sept. 17th from Midwestern saying my application was complete and they received everything.

I think in previous years decisions were posted on applicant portals Monday night and emails/phone calls were made later that week.Does that mean we'll hear later today or later this week...?
AHHHHH, I know!!Wow, okay! I'm excited!
I'm several hours ahead of AZ time... do they update it at the close of business hours or would it update at like midnight their time?? Trying to decide how late I should make myself stay up checking tonight!!
I'm in FL too! lol! I was just reading the forum from last year and some people didn't hear for up to 2 or 3 days after they met. I'm thinking it's not going to be worth it to lose sleep over waiting, though I probably will anywayIm in Florida so I'm 3 hours ahead. I was wondering the same thing!
Also they were supposed to meet a week ago a didn't. I called and they said they were meeting later that day and then I saw someone posted on here later that they didn't due to scheduling conflicts.I'm in FL too! lol!

Well I guess you where right; yesterday was not the day haha. It's driving me nuts!
Mine hasn't changed, not sure what that means :/
CongratsI GOT ACCEPTED!!!!!! Everyone go check your accepted student checklist thing on your portal!!! SO happy right now!!!
Mine hadn't changed either. I just called in a panic. My file is unchanged according to them, meaning it hasn't been reviewed. I guess they didn't get to everyone. She is unsure when the next time they meet is... sigh.
Ok well that makes me feel better haha. Maybe it just hasn't been updated yet (she says hopefully)...
Congratulations to all of you who just got in!!!!
I freaked out when I saw and called to ask about the status of my application, and the lady I talked to told me that mine hasn't gone before the committee yet. This is so stressful! I wonder if they're doing it by last name or what. It seems like a few people from all the groups have been accepted.
Nope, nothing yet.Has anyone who had their application confirmed in mid-September hear anything about an interview yet?

My last name is in the beginning of the alphabet so that's totally possible!!!I'm thinking it may be alphabetical too. I'm halfway through the alphabet and if they had 3 group's worth of interviews to go through that's probably around ~45 students or so... maybe they didn't get through to everyone. When I called she didn't have the next day of the admissions committee meeting so it looks like for now we have to wait. She said my status is still "interviewed"- not accepted, rejected, or alternate. So I still have hope!! lol.
No news yet here!Has anyone who had their application confirmed in mid-September hear anything about an interview yet?
No news yet here!
Congrats to everyone accepted today!! That is so exciting!!
Would anyone who was accepted this round feel comfortable sharing some stats? Aside from interviewing, I am just curious about where I may fall academically/experience wise. Thank you!
