Interview Waitlist is not an "at least" kind of thing. Interview Waitlist in bad.
It's better than an outright rejection.
They only do outright rejections before April for completely garbage applicants.
OK. I was just asking somebody else who made it sound like they had been rejected if they though they were rejected because they received interview wait-list or because they just haven't received anything. That's all.
Fair.

Does anyone see a date available to interview outside of August 17th?
I don't even see August 17th, all I see is August 10th 🙁 That's way too soon.
*Also, there is no such thing as a "garbage applicant"

Umm, yes there is. As hard as it might be to believe for some of us SDNers, some medical school applicants don't even look at MSAR/school profiles/rankings and simply apply with incredibly low stats.
Are they the minority? Sure. But they still exist.
In the spring quarter of my freshman year, I received a No Pass in my Upper Division Latin course. There was a final paper worth 40% of our grade. I wrote 6 pages instead of 12 . The minimum page requirement had been emphasized at a class I had missed.
My NP was a valuable lesson in responsibility, and a necessary wake-up call I needed to work harder than I had been, specifically in my non-science classes.
Would it be of concern to the committee? Should I mention it?

That's interesting because I don't see the 10th at all. Is it possible they are assigning us interview dates by limiting the day we can sign up for?
Did they send you an email saying your status changed?
Yup! Got it too!! But it was 9pm west coast time 😛. August 10th is Friday ... Way too soon ... Has anyone called and asked about when they are going to put up more dates?
Yep! I got an email with links and other information. I received the email at 12:01am 😀
I could only sign up for August 17th.... Could it be that they are assigning us interview times by limiting the number of dates we can sign up for?
Interview Invite! Complete 7/29. The only interview date available for me was August 17th as well.
Congrats! I submitted on 7/31 so hopefully I hear from them soon
I will see you there!

Super shuttle. its more than 15 miles away, so a taxi would be double or triple the cost each way
Just got my interview invite!!! So pumped, this school has so many amazing things going for it. I don't see any dates available on the scheduling thing. But judging by these posts, that's the norm... guess they'll upload them soon? Hoping for early September.
Congrats! When was your app complete?
Does anyone know if every applicant who gets an interview, and selected one of the leadership programs, automatically gets an interview invitation to the program?
Or are there people who get interviews to Davis but not for the special pro,grams?

I don't think interviews are contingent upon your interest in those programs because I did not go for one of the special programs yet received an invite. Good luck!
Does anyone have the US News data on how many students UCD accepts versus how many they interview? I only have matriculated data from MSAR. Thanks!
Complete 7/16 with no status updates...rejection, interview wait-list, or II
Just submit it and if they don't take it you are going to have to complete the prereq before you enroll if accepted.
Oh ok thanks! I wasn't sure if they would screen it out before deciding whether to interview me or not.
They have an admissions timeline thingy in the info packet with similar numbers listed:
4500-5200 applicants @ Primary
2500-3000 applicants @ Secondary
500 Interviewed
105 Offers
~100 Waitlisted
Anyone else going 8/17?

Awesome! How are you planning to get from the airport to campus (unless you live in the area and are gonna drive)? I ended up flopping between driving from LA to Sacramento, to just flying there.. so now I have to figure out public transport, and I'm not that familiar with the area.
Anyone have tips?
Edit: Nevermind, can take Yolobus 42a to about a block away from light rail station, which then takes you to the med school, where you can board the green line to get to the middle of school =D

I'm driving in. I know the area a bit, so let me know if you have additional questions.
Why don't you use the message center on status page website?
