I got an email when I was invited for an interview, don't think i ever got a complete one though.
When were you complete and 'under review'?
i really wish i could tell you.. sorry :/ all i know is that it's been like that for a while now and i submitted my secondary 2-3 days after the first batch of secondaries were received
Agh!!! FINALLY finished the secondary but now it seems to be broken!!! The essay prompt (and my essay) appear FOUR TIMES on the essay page, then the two other questions appear normally. Now it's saying I haven't finished so I can't submit!! But it's all there x4! Anyone else have this problem?? I guess I need to call them 🙁
Yeah, others have complained about that. Did you try refreshing the page and logging out and back in? Whatever you do, make sure your essays are at least saved in MS Office or something.
Also, does anyone know how to change the order of the clinical campuses?

yayayayaya interview
Me too, so happy/relieved to get my first interview!!!
Complete about two weeks ago.
Noo! Hope is never lost. For instance, I submitted my secondary a month ago, I just had to wait for my LORs to be in. So it's possible that I got processed before you, and that your interview is coming this week.
Nevertheless, you can get an interview at any time. I was reading through MDApps last night and saw an applicant who ended up at Vanderbilt... and they didn't get their interview invite until December (the vast majority of people get them in August/September). So, like I said -- hope is never lost!
Congratulations to the next set of interview invitees! I'm still under review here, currently.
Do they only send out interview invites on Mondays? It seems that way.

Perhaps? Not sure. I've noticed based on the people posting that a lot of schools just give some invites everyday. haha so we'll have to wait and see!
Submitted 7/11 but no idea when complete.
Grats!

Interview invite early this morning! (Could have been that way since yesterday though!) - I had to check the status online and did not receive an email about it so MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR STATUS frequently 
I was complete VERY early by the way - I think 7.11 or 7.12 so do not worry those of you who have not heard yet!
Stats (since you might ask?): cGPA: 3.55, sGPA: 3.52, MCAT: 34Q
I really like this school -

Interview invite this morning, pretty excited. Did anyone else have to call the admissions office to set it up? I thought you could schedule it online but it just tells me to call them. Any idea how far the open dates go back?
Just got an interview here! 9/23
My sister went to medical school here and loved it.
Complete around 7/19
3.3/34Q non trad

I've been neurotically checking my status for this school since everyone says there's no email. I should probably stop - with my 29 MCAT and 3.7, I don't really foresee an interview for another few months... unfortunately!
Still keeping my fingers crossed. Congrats to all those who already have an (or many) interview(s)!

Did you schedule it online, or did you call? Congrats!
When I called the choices were:
9/16, 9/23, 9/29, 9/30, 10/6, 10/7
I checked my status online, saw I had an interview invite, clicked on the schedule interview tab and it told me to call.
Later, I also received an email.

The e-mail for me came a day later actually. In fact you need it because it explains the interview day to you! I would not worry, you will get a notice about the interview either way. The waiting is super hard, but you will get some interviews soon!
Did anyone have to send a letter for institutional action? This seems to be the only school requiring this...
I hope your interview goes VERY well!Advertisement - Members don't see this ad

Thank you!! SDN is great: people like you to make a girl feel good about her application, and fellow neurotic souls to empathize with.
I look forward to seeing how this app cycle goes for all of us. I wish you all the BEST of luck!

I'm pretty sure I was complete less than a week after you. I hope I get an update soon!
Don't worry app-buddy. Temple is waiting to send us invites so we can schedule for the same date 🙂Thank you!! SDN is great: people like you to make a girl feel good about her application, and fellow neurotic souls to empathize with.
I got an interview for St. Lukes. Checked the status, no e-mail.
ditto. congrats to you!
I've been under review at Temple for so fkn long! I actually clicked on the button next to under review today that says "explain this status". Their explanation was "Your application is under review with the committee".

I was, but then I was thinking I'd be one of the guys up to no good, starting to make trouble in the neighborhood.
I was tempted to say that I was interested in Temple b/c I wanted to meet Will Smith or attempt to build up street cred.

what?
If this is a reference to Fresh Prince then Temple is the heart of North Philly... if you wanted to use the 'meet Jazzy Jeff' card then you should have said UPenn, its actually in west philly (sorta)
But yea i have been under review for ages now, and this was one of my first apps sent in. I was prob complete like 7/23 or so; maddening wait

I got an invite yesterday through email at St. Luke's! Have to call to schedule an interview. What dates are your interviews for those who received an interview at St. Luke's?
Got an "interview invite" status on the temple website earlier this week, no email tho. Called to schedule an interview, all seemed ok.
Two days after scheduling, I get a call that it was a mistake in the system and no decision had been made on my application yet. No more interview 🙁
