Interviewed here today and it went really well 🙂 I had one with a nurse practitioner who teaches at the school and the other with an MS2 and both were really laid back, relaxed and not grilling at all. The new building was really nice, everyone seemed really happy and their focus on producing patient-centered physicians really came through.
When I chose today, there were still dates for November and December, but that was earlier today.
Ah well, that's better than at other schools. Hopefully apps complete in early July are still being considered. I keep telling myself not to panic....yet.
Maybe by the end of this month, the panicking will kick in.
This gets me excited about tomorrow!! 🙂
Congrats! When were you completeII! Hooray! 11/21!!
Good luck to everyone waiting to hear back
Thank you! I was complete 9/8.
I just signed up for my interview and they had November and December slots still open!
They email you the II and then you log onto the portal to select a date.
Me too!!!
At the interview they said they wouldn't be sending out acceptances until October 15, and those will be for the applicants who interviewed in early September.

They told us to expect a decision in 6-8 weeks. I interviewed yesterday.
I would wait and see. This process is so unpredictable. So many amazing people and so few spots.
Secretly hoping that they'll do it faster than that because I'm so antsy. 5-7 more weeks is sooooooo long
II today. I was complete like 3 months ago! So there's still hope for some of you early birds. Early December dates are still open.
II for 12\5!!

Awesome!! You will love this school.
I really enjoyed Scranton. It's slower paced than the city I am used to, it's quiet and they're big on community. There's a nearby park, Nay Aug, that's beautiful and has lots of trails and other things if you're big on outdoor activities.
Stats? if you don't mind. Thanks!

Anyone who interviewed early know if we'll hear anything on the 15th?
How do I go about finding a student host?
I sure hope so...I will be keeping my phone close and frantically checking my e-mail...
They told us 6-8 weeks from the day we interviewed. I interviewed on October 3, so I am wishing and hoping that they'll just release ask the decisions from interviews before today asasp. Probably not going to happen, but a girl can dream, right?
Read the info in your online portal.
II here!!!! omgeee!

Does anyone know if Commonwealth is open to pre-II updates? Thanks
How did you find out
Got deferred till the next committee meeting (via email) today 29 3.83 interviewed 9/29 ... anyone know when the next meeting is? kind of upset. Any current TCMC students lurking any advice about being deferred? I guess its not a rejection but still hurts.

No decision yet interviewed 10/3
I got an e-mail early this morning. I interviewed within the first couple of days in early September. It looks like from last years thread a handful of people who got deferred at the first meeting were then accepted at the next meeting...hoping for the same!
Do you have any idea ball park when the next committee meeting is?
Pre-interview rejection today. Complete late July
email!
