This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
My TMDSAS application got transmitted on July 25, but I still have not received a conformation email from UT- Houston. Anyone else with a similar situation?

I was transmitted 7-17 and haven't gotten anything.

I'll do you one better; tmdsas transmitted all of mine 6/20, and I haven't heard so much as a confirmation email, but I'm staying optimistic. Plus, my MCAT scores weren't sent until 7/16 or so.... Hope I hear something soon!

Ah, all this waiting is getting to me! I hope we both hear something soon!
 
I got an email confirmation this morning if anyone is still wondering about that
 
You got the confirmation. Are you still waiting on an interview invite?
 
My app was under review as of 06/12 but I haven't received an II. Is anyone else in the same boat?
Same here. I received the confirmation 6/20 but have yet to receive II. Already received UTSA, Lubbock, and El Paso.
 
I got an interview at UT Southwestern and UT Galveston already. Still nothing from UT Houston.
 
Is it even worth applying here with a 4.0/28 MCAT OOS?
It doesn't hurt to apply. You never know what can happen. Plus, there is no secondary for this school so you aren't spending extra money to apply here, given that you are already planning to apply to other TMDSAS schools.
 
So quiet here!!??? Last reported II was on 7/27.

Did anyone get II since then?

Thanks
 
Just got conformation that my application was received. Any ideas how long it will take before they review my application?

When was your application transmitted?
 
I have been waiting for sooooo long for an II as well. When will it be?!
 
I've been since early June as well. I have a feeling they haven't sent out very many II's yet. This is the school I want to attend and I should get an interview here. Already got one at UT Southwestern.
 
Application complete 8/1/14 (OUT OF STATE). 3.65 cGPA, 3.45 sGPA, 31 MCAT (10/11/10). Do I have any chance to receive an interview invite?
 
Transmitted 7/9 and confirmation 7/15 and just waiting...
 
Does anyone know if UT Houston is open to "in the area" e-mails?
 
UT Houston's first round of interviews start this Friday (my friend is going), so they have been sending out IIs. I'm not sure if they're being more selective this year or what, but the wait sure is killing me!
 
MS2 here. So far we're only interviewing students in the JAMP program (this Friday as well). The first interview date for traditional applicants isn't until August 29th, and then every friday and occasional wednesdays afterwards. We have lots of interview dates upcoming, so don't worry if you haven't heard anything yet. Good luck!
 
Just got my II! 3.7/3.5/29. Was seriously not expecting to hear from this school this early, if at all. I kept re-reading the email to make sure it was real. I was given Sept 12th, 17th, and 19th interview dates to choose from. Don't worry y'all, there's still hope for everyone!

Are you JAMP?
 
Are you JAMP?

No, just regular. I don't want to go into too much detail for the sake of anonymity, but I have pretty strong ECs which is probably the strongest part of my application and somewhat makes up for my lower stats. I got my "under review" email on 7/1
 
Also same interview dates offered as the other poster mentioned.
 
Just got my first II!!!! So excited 🙂 They were the ONLY school to give me a chance last year, but I retook my MCAT and things are looking up 👍👍 3.4 cGPA 31 MCAT

Hip-hip horray!! I hope you do well. If you dont mind me asking, what was your MCAT last cycle?
 
@Make Or Break 25 🙁 I will say that my interview was pretty late, like around November 22nd and also that I have pretty good ECs and a strong upward trend on my GPA
 
II as well! Multiple dates were available in September, so they must just be starting with more II's!

Congratulationssss! If you don't mind me asking, how did you study for your MCAT the second time? I am applying this cycle but I will be retaking my MCAT soon. I feel like my MCAT score isn't competitive enough, and I'd rather retake the MCAT now so I can take the current one and not the new one.
 
What email did your II invite come from? I know I am being unrealistic, but I got this sinking feeling it will (or has) gone to my junk email. lol
