GAH! I want one of these.....
May be the same for me...
Got this one also, it has a quick 5 day turnaround.
So this is screened? I didn't realize that.
They cashed my check today
I got mine today. In-state applicant.
K. Hopefully they are passing out the IS's first (and I'm still in the running)!

nothing
I hope they start soon! I looked through last year's posts and saw that they offered an invite around 9/25. Hopefully some people will start hearing next week.
sounds like they're only handing out rejections at this point. maybe we should just be patient and wait for whatever they've got coming.I called today and she told me not to worry. She said that if I hadn't received anything yet it was good? Anyway I just got the impression that I should hang on for awhile longer. I suppose I will wait until the end of the month before calling again. Any other suggestions?
Hey guys! I'm a current M2 at UT. Just wanted to reiterate that its EARLY in the interview season for us. Our first interviews were just last week, so there's plenty of time left. I know how stressful all the waiting is, but try to keep in mind that its a long process and things might not start happening all at once in October. And if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! I'm not on here much, but I pop through once in a while. Best of luck!
How long did it take all the OOS applicants to receive a secondary?
This is my top choice for several reasons and I have been accepted. I interviewed 10/21
Way to go! Are you IS or OOS?
I'm OOS and I loved this school. I got a 'continue to review' letter post-interview, though.
Does anybody have any clue as to how often they bring in groups to interview or how often they meet to decide who to extend interview invitations to?
