I think everything is done on a rolling basis, so they will probably send out more in the coming weeks.

I actually just heard from them the end of last week. I submitted my application the last week of July.

 

[doseeeeeeeee]

would it be bad to call for a status update on your app? also has anyone been invited who didn't do micro

 

[wannabe_dentist]

Yes that would be bad. It sucks but it’s best to be patient. If they want to invite you for interview the time will come, speak it into existence!

 

[kahna26]

My adea application status for UMich says "Received/Application Complete" it doesn't say it is under review. Is that concerning? I submitted my application in August.

Does anyone know if we can use a pen to take notes during the MMI process? Like during the prep time so we can draft some ideas on the paper?

I did this! Just to brainstorm a bit. I don’t see anything wrong with it but I made sure to twirl my pen around in the camera shot so they knew I was writing 😂.

Do you mind explaining the interview process?

 

[wannabe_dentist]

Do you mind explaining the interview process?

It’s an MMI format using the Kira platform. Some questions are video recording like normal Kira, and others are with a live interviewer. That’s really all I can say since we signed confidentiality forms

 

[predontal]

Hey! Are people still receiving interview invites? I'm starting to feel worried cuz I still haven't, is it still early?

 

[aspiring.dds]

Hey! Are people still receiving interview invites? I'm starting to feel worried cuz I still haven't, is it still early?

I wouldn’t say it’s early but there’s still hope. I submitted my app late and haven’t gotten any news yet either.

 

[xovspink]

I received an invite a week ago, last Wednesday. Don't lose hope yet!

If you don't mind sharing, when did you send in your app and when did they notify you they received it?

 

[bommer2323]

Hope they still have a few interviews left for us IS folks.

 

[xovspink]

If you don't mind sharing, when did you send in your app and when did they notify you they received it?

I submitted June 28th and they emailed that they received it/marked my app complete on July 1st

Hey guys, I'm currently a student at UM. Last year, they sent out the last round of interviews around the beginning of November for a mid-November interview, and then had another round in January for any spots they needed to fill. Hope this eases everyone's minds if you haven't gotten one yet!

 

[bommer2323]

I'm Starting to feel those nov interviews won't be happening this year.

 

[futuredentistphd]

There are interviews today/tomorrow. I assume this is the Nov interviews, emails about this one were sent mid October.
