Anyone know if they are not doing post December interviews this year? Seems like they are starting a bit earlier than usual
 
If I submitted my apps on the first day it was open and did not get an interview yesterday, does that mean I have a low chance to get an invitation for the interview ?

they just started sending out interviews. there is no need to start assuming the worst this early in the cycle
 
When did everyone receive the app complete email? Also when you post regarding an interview invite, it would really be helpful if that kind of information was included alongside your stats. Thanks!

I think Interview invitations are sent based on when you submitted and received the app complete email. I think apps from june are currently being reviewed. I am not 100% sure, but i think UM would likely wait until ur official scores were up before reviewing ur app and deciding to interview you

Does anyone know when Michigan sends out their second round of interviews?

It seems like a few people just received emails today about invites later in September.

For those who received an invite today, can you please let us know when you received the application complete email from UMich?

6/14 complete for me. The dates are Sept 13 and 20!
 
Seems like they still haven't sent out too many invites even though they started well over two weeks ago. Thanks for keeping us posted and good luck on the interview! 🙂
13 and 27 for me! Seems like they haven’t entered October’s dates

if I get an interview should i be clean shaven or are we able to keep a nice clean beard?
I dont wanna come off as unprofessional
There are a lot of threads on this. Most people say that you should always be clean shaven as this is the safe route. Meanwhile, others with a nicely trimmed beard have gotten acceptances from schools wherein they interviewed with the beard and rejected from schools wherein they were clean shaven.

So, in conclusion, it doesn't matter as long as you don't look like a hobo.
 
Has anyone been interviewed with a missing pre-requisite (sociology) before? I left it blank in my application but was wondering how I should go about this if I have not had an interview invite yet..

Yeah, I will have. I had a problem w my AP credits disappearing when I submitted and several of my prerequisites were not fulfilled. I have an interview. When they invite you, you have to fill out a spreadsheet of prereqs so it is only at this point that they audit your prerequisites.

I’ve been wondering about this as well. Thank you

So If I get an interview and fill out the prereqs sheet, will they deny the interview based on my missing sociology prerequisite?

If you plan to take it in the future then you can indicate it on the spreadsheet. Either way, they say in the email they'll contact you with any questions if there is an issue. I would imagine they would want you to take it eventually though.
