Official 2015-2016 Cardiology Fellowship Application Cycle

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I got this as well, guessing it is a system issue. If you notice, the person who is on the e-mail sent today, is not the person who we were instructed to send our original date preferences to. Or maybe I am reading too much into it.
*EDIT: They also confirmed date today

Just noticed your edit - who confirmed the date for you? Was it Aubrey or Christina? I sent an email to the former but got a automated out of the office message...Or did you call?

Did they confirm you for 10/2? Someone else in my program was confirmed for 10/2 but I requested 10/9 and haven't heard anything. And bizarrely, I didn't get that message you guys are referring to!

Really?! aww...I didn't hear from them...I guess they didn't like me enough...need to do yoga now to relieve the stress...
JCWU if you are stressed then imagine the rest of us mortals.
 
it's going to be different for everyone but it would be helpful to know how many calls ppl have gotten so far with different visa categories. If 2-3 ppl in each category can tell everyone would have an idea whts the overall situation with regards to interview no. I'm a visa requiring IMG at a university affiliated community hosp. So far 7 calls . None from the community hospitals. Do they start giving out calls later? Or I just didn't get any
 
There's a lot of posts here and I tried glancing through and didn't see an answer to what will be a stupid question:

I haven't heard from some places that I'd expected to hear/receive invites from and it has me worried. Is this going to be similar to IM where I may not receive a rejection at all and secondly is it worth reaching out to places (email or call) to express interest/see if they may offer me an interview? I hadn't seen this thread until today and was waiting to hear from places since I know invites can go out through the end of the month.
 
Not an official answer...but yes, there are places that do and those that don't send out rejections at all...for instance, just above, apparently UPenn sent out invitations to externals - and I didn't receive an invite, which given many aspects of my application (particularly some with affinity towards that program), kinda shocked me. In terms of your second question, it has been addressed similarly before, but in brief, sure, reaching out should be fine, though to be perfectly honest, probably won't be something to make or break the interview invitation cutoff - bottom line, if you're a strong candidate, the invitations (in general) should be reflective of this on its own merit...again defer to anyone else with a more official opinion...
 
Has anyone heard from Cook county or Rush university in Chicago?
 
Members don't see this ad :)
To JCWU, seems like last year Penn sent invites, wait lists and rejections. Seems surprising that you and some of the others on the forum wouldn't have gotten an invite or at least a wait list. Rejections also don't seem to have rolled out... so maybe they are not done.
 
That's sweet of you to say...and correct...but even if I were to get an invite now, I assume that it means I wasn't in the first invite group ... and thus I probably wouldn't risk putting that program high on my match rank list anyway... But thanks for being nice though :p
 
Anyone heard from UT Houston or Methodist (Houston)?
 
As we're all preparing for interviews ... what is everyone going to take on the day of? Obviously extra copies of CV, personal statement, and potentially abstracts? Anything else? Good luck!!!!
 
...yoga mat and running gear...re-watch all seasons of sex and the city on netflix...

Is it just me or are people still waiting to hear from a lot of programs who are not on our list?! I only applied to 30 and still waiting to hear from 15! Are there programs not listed that people have heard from? NY programs in particular?

No I am waiting too, however hope seems to be fading with each day.
 
Many programs don't send rejections (or send them at the end- like November).
Some programs send rejections to some people and keep others on a waiting list (and send rejections at the end).
Some programs are about to send invites in early September, but don't know how many.
I don't remember, but I think NY programs in particular don't bother too much sending anything.
Don't be surprised - you will meet a lot of arrogant and not caring people during the interview process.
 
Anyone heard from UT Houston or Methodist (Houston)?
They have both sent interviews. I got one from UT Houston but not from methodist but a few co-residents did. I am hoping to hear from them though.
 
has anyone heard from Mt Sinai Clinical Track?
 
Any body heard from University of Tennesse college of medicine at Chattanooga program ?
 
Have any external candidates heard from Northwestern or University of Michigan?
 
We're all just a bucket of anxiety ain't we?

Anyone have any knowledge about the program at St. Elizabeth's Medical Center in Boston? Or Ochsner Clinic? Any feedback helps
 
Anyone else hear from UNC? Did they have a limited number of interview dates?
 
I have seen interviews to some of the Texas schools posted, but some are missing. Anyone heard from UTMB, Scott & White, or Texas Tech Lubbock?
 
A few more to ask about out west. Anyone heard from Arizona programs, New Mexico or UNLV?
 
Hey all you super candidates, are you planning to attend all your 50 plus interviews ? If not, please start cancelling and kindly let us common folk know which programs you are cancelling. By the way is anybody cancelling an IV for UT Memphis ??
 
Have any of the mid-tier New York programs sent out interview invitations yet (to internal or external candidates)?
 
IV from Univ of Kansas
Rejections from Univ of New Mexico, Beaumont, Arizona and ECU
 
Based on last year's thread, there might be a few stragglers or cancellations turned to invites left but I'd say pretty much over.
 
hey guys,
Do you think we'll still get more interview or this was the end of it?
thanks

I actually got two additional interviews this week -- wouldn't lose all hope.
