It's been pretty quiet for a while. I assume that most schools have probably sent out their first round of interviews already and are screening for the second rounds now. Some schools that no one seems to have heard from yet might still be working on their first rounds though. Past years have had pretty heavy IIs around this week, so maybe something to look forward to.Is there any new II lately?
Nothing here. However, I just received this email from WUSTL:
"...This year, we will select 25 individuals for the 2015 entering class. Based on an initial review of your AMCAS application, we believe you will be competitive for an interview with the MSTP. We encourage you to complete your WUSOM application as soon as possible; while the application deadline is October 31, we have already filled 55% of our interview slots.... "
Anyone else get this, is this common? I was lazy about submitting a secondary here but now it seems like it's a good sign to apply.
Lol, well you are quite creative! I hope we go to school together haha.For all of you who had interviews in the last week or so--congratulations, and we salute you! You arse the Oregon Trail pioneers of this MSTP adventure While we may lose some along the way from cholera and dysentery (or in our case non-funded MD/PhDs or MD-onlys), we are all brothers and sisters striving for a common destination: The Pacific Ocean (or, again, in our case, a fully government funded education)! So always keep hope that those invitations will come, remember that waitlists eventually dwindle, and I look forward to circling the wagons with some of you when the time comes.
Haha thanks! And you obviously seem to be doing things right to have ten interviews by now! It looks like Yale is our only common ground, though, and that's definitely a reach for me. There's always residencies 😉Lol, well you are quite creative! I hope we go to school together haha.
Which non-MSTP programs are non-funded? I can't seem to find up-to-date information anywhere.
Here's the list I always reference: http://www.nigms.nih.gov/training/instpredoc/pages/PredocInst-MSTP.aspx
Thanks! But these are MSTP programs. A program need not be funded by NIH to be fully-funded.
Nice! Thanks! TIL some MSTP's are only partially funded.Oh, I see. Like this? https://www.aamc.org/students/download/62760/data/faqtable.pdf
For people who interviewed at Pitt, do you remember the one director said that we could email today to receive our acceptance or rejection status by tomorrow? Because I put her email into my exchange email and it shows that she is out of the office until 10/21. 🙁

Has anyone heard from Temple or Jefferson?
Yes, but only one so farAnyone with early interview dates have decisions yet?

Are schools still giving out IIs? It seems like everything is slowing down.
Wow, so despite people saying the MD-only has ~10% more applicants this year, the MD/PhD has 10 % fewer applicants this year. 184 people fewer.
I know some schools allow applicants to send in their secondaries as late as January 1st. I wonder if the number of applicants will increase between now and then?
"been considered" = no action, at least one application still open for review, interviewing, hold, and other categories
"rejected" = passive withdrawal (which might change depending upon school), preliminary rejections or complete rejections to all applications.
In my experience, these numbers are all relative and potentially changing until matriculation time. The total number for applications to MD in 2015 is around 44.2 K including 1669 for MD/PhD. There are several weeks still available in the cycle (plus these numbers tend to reflect only verified applications) so don't be surprise if by the end we are approaching 48 or 49K applications including 1800 or so MD/PhD. Clearly, the last few batches of applicants tend to be considerably less competitive.
