Congrats!! Hoping for some WashU love my way.
What days do they conduct interviews on?

The only date that was available on their calendar was September 30th, but their email said to call and reschedule if the date doesn't work.
Your excitement is overflowing!
Srsly. I have almost wept with joy/run around with arms a'flail the few times I've gotten an email inviting me to do my famous über-excited-overshare that I reserve for extremely important meetings and interviews.
ie: I would have added at least three exclamation points and some sort of emoti.

Anyone know (approximately) how late the interview day goes?

I submitted the secondary in early July, but they did not receive my letters until 7/21.
Congrats all of you who got IIs at WashU. WashU is my top choice but quite a reach for me. You guys have amazing stats. I wonder how you manage to score a 40 on the MCAT. Any how, congrats again. You guys totally deserve all the IIs from top schools. Good luck the rest of the cycle.
II here too!! Particularly exciting because it's the end to a three week dry streak since my first round of IIs came in. 
There are no available (green) dates for me... anyone have thoughts on whether I should call in or sit tight and wait for more dates to open up?

There were none for me either when I checked this morning. I gave them a call and they said it was a problem they were having and that they would call me back.II here too!! Particularly exciting because it's the end to a three week dry streak since my first round of IIs came in.

complete mid/late August
Have any IIs been sent out since last Thursday? Hoping for another round today or tomorrow...
II today! I had already given up hope hahaha. Secondary app completed on 7/13.
Stats please, if you don't mind sharing with your fellow sdners
Hey! You are doing great! Lucky for me that you can't go to ALL the schools that want you. . . 😎
Haha thanks. I appreciate it 🙂
Congrats to everybody with invites so far!
Is there anybody out there applying MSTP that received an MD-only invite?

Serious, I don't know whether I want to acknowledge waiting. I'm afraid I'm waiting for bad news! (Not saying that applies to you, Ducky!)
Lol probably bad news for me too but it would be nice to know
So, I was just derping around on my computer and decided to check my portals for schools at which I had not received an interview....
go to Wash U page and see this:
"According to our records and procedures your file is Complete.
Interview Offer Date: 10/1/2014"
(insert minor freak out here)
However, I haven't received any emails or phone calls today indicating that I have actually received an offer?
@mjhhockey98, @soccerusa, @Avocado8 and anyone else with IIs.. how did you receive the notification? how did you schedule?
*edit* it's letting me select an interview date online, should I go ahead and do it?

I got an email around 7pm, and I hadn't checked my portal before the email. I had to call and schedule because their calendar wasn't working for some reason.
Complete like forever ago in July sometime.. and thanks!
@ProbablyAPenguin I just checked my portal, and it says "Interview Offer Date: 9/12/2014." I'm confused now too.
It's also letting me select a date from the calendar, but the only interview date that I can see is Oct. 10.
Weird. You should def call them! I will as well tomorrow and we can see what's going on!
*edit* if this is an error on their part, I will be very sad.
I shot them an email. (I had an update anyway). I couldn't find a phone number on the website's page. When you click on "Contact WUMS," it redirects you to an email address, so I just sent it there.
I just got an email!
Awesome, interviewees! Stealthy or not, those invitations are pretty great! Somehow, my invite has yet to materialize. . .but I wish you luck!!
Just called and sorted things out. They were very nice and helpful. For those interested, the interview dates were Oct. 10, 14, 15, 21, and 22. They still seem to have a lot of spots!
I also called to schedule a time not available on the calendar, and they were just kind of like "OK, pick when!"

About what time does the interview day end here?
2:30-3:00ish
I was complete 8/6. It looks like, from my portal, they sent me my invite on 9/12, but I didn't notice and talk to them until 10/3.
4.00, 37, OOS.
