Seconded. I accepted the offer a long time ago, but was really confused about the payment. Like you, I paid it just in case.

Yeah, I agree with what you guys said. I was confused about what was required for accepting the offer vs. for matriculation since someone mentioned that the payment was necessary by the 2-week deadline even though the wording seemed to indicate otherwise. Makes sense about the transcripts though since most people haven't graduated (even though I have, ha)

Congrats! How long did it take u to hear from them?
Is 12/5 the last interview of the year?
Last year they sent out interview invites in January!
Just got an II and the site only showed 12/5 as being available for me also. I can't attend that day because of another interview, so I called and they told me there were spots available 12/12, 12/15, 1/7, and 1/13. (I may have forgotten one other date they listed). They were super nice and confirmed me for 1/7, so definitely feel free to contact them if you can't make the date that shows up on the website!
If you don't mind me asking, when were you complete? Also any stats you feel comfortable with sharing?
They're also planning a date on 1/9
No problem! I was transmitted early/mid October and stats wise I have a 3.73 gpa and 33 MCAT.
Good luck to everyone!!
Just spoke with admissions about changing my date, since my work schedule wouldn't allow me to go this Friday. They were very nice and we were able to work it out, but there are actually only two dates available: Mon, Dec 15th & Tues, Jan 13th. The rest of the dates are full.
Accepted! They offered a scholarship along with the offer.

congrats!
When did you interview?
I interviewed the day before prematch, so 11/14.
Ahh gotcha. I interviewed the 21st so maybe there is still hope. What was your MCAT/gpa if you don't mind me asking?
Wait, did they send out more pre-matches?
LizzyM is around 73.
I guess so. It'd be odd if only a few of us received a prematch. The others may not be on SDN.
Classmates, for sure. Also, last night at the Secret Santa party we decided to throw (see, awesome people!), a group of us were all talking about how we liked the curriculum set up.
If you have already been accepted, you can go to the link sent in the acceptance email—it's also the same site we used to complete the secondary. Then, go to the "offer" tab on the top, in the left hand corner there will be a link to scholarship information. Assuming you received a scholarship, you will find the information there. If not, I assume the tab will not be there or it will say you did not receive a scholarship, yet. I put yet because I assume once people turn down the prematch offer they will be able to allocate those funds to different students—so don't lose hope!

Does anyone know when OOS decisions will be made? Is there a waitlist for OOS applicants?
Thanks!

Does Tech release a wait list in the spring and let you know if your on?
Congrats! Mind sharing your interview date?Got a prematch offer on 12/19!!
Cancelled my interview today that was for 1/7, I hope someone that really wants to go here gets it

@funkymonkey0987 Thanks! That would make a great holiday gift for any one of us still hoping 🙂
Yes, although I didn't receive mine until about 2 months after match day.
Very laid-back and conversational, nothing to worry about 🙂 Be able to talk about what you mentioned in your essays and why you'd want to come here, just like any other interview. For me, it really helped to read over the SDN interview feedback page, just to make sure I had answers for everything on there.
Just got an interview invite, but it's a little tricky as I am supposed to go back to school this weekend (tx res, undergrad oos) and the last day is their only day, Jan 13. But I sent an email as suggested and we'll see what happens...
Money money money....sigh.
Edit: long story short, they offered to see if the 9th opened up, but it's just too late of a notice, so, I'll talk to my parents and see if the 13th is possible, otherwise I'll let someone else have an opportunity.
Edit UPDATE: I'll be going on the 13th. Guess I'll be missing the first day of classes, again lol.
