Did all of you guys that got interview invites have your letters in all already? I just submitted the secondary but my letters won't be in until maybe the end of this week, is there a chance I hear from them without my letters being in?
When did you guys submit? I submitted on 7/13 and nothing here. Idk why -_- ughhh
Thanks HopefulDoc12! It is just frustrating when people submitting after you (w/o letters too) start getting II makes you wonder if you are rejected :/I submitted 7/6 so they probably just haven't gotten to you yet. Don't worry!
Sorry to hear 🙁 that. Good luck with the rest of the application process, I am sure you will get into a great school.Just got rejected. Good luck everyone!
I know which is so stupid! -_- 700 for 40 whhhYYyyyYyyY?!Yeah, but I noticed that for OSS, they interview about 700 people for only 40 spots so even though we got an II, those are some slim odds. 🙁
That sounds crazy, where did you see that?Yeah, but I noticed that for OSS, they interview about 700 people for only 40 spots so even though we got an II, those are some slim odds. 🙁
It's on MSAR under the acceptance information tab: II to 694 applicants and 36 matriculated.. eeks. That is really weird -_-
It's like 70/524 acceptances extended according to usnews
70 IS/524 OOS??? Or 70 out of 524 interviewed?
What is the point of them sending so many II then? -_-70 OOS acceptances out of 524 OOS interviewed

Hope this is true. It seems rather pointless to interview nearly 700 peeps. I am sure not a whole lotta people would wanna go here over places like CA, NY, TX, etc.. But then again since they put 90% of the OOS applicants on waitlists anything can happen..Hmm I would imagine it is more than that... If they on avg matriculate 40 OOS, only extending 70 invitations that is cutting it really close. That means they are expecting more than 60% of your acceptances to be matriculates... I would imagine you would want 3-5x as many acceptances to spots you hope to fill. I could be completely wrong though i have no idea what i am talking about!
I just got the secondary!
I think they probably accept alot more OOS and that's just how many of them actually matriculated. They probably accepted around 100+ or so

Keep in mind that the "invitations" include acceptance offers off of the waitlist. They can throw out 40 invites and then go from there depending on how many decide to matriculate. They don't necessarily have to throw out 3-5x the number of spots especially when dealing with OOS people.
I'm 99% sure it's open file. They can ask you about grades, MCAT, ECs, etc.to continue on with spark's question…
does anyone know if WVU does open file interview? as in, do the interviewers have your entire file sitting in front of them...
I submitted my whole app several days ago and just got an email that my secondary fee hasn't been paid-- whereas the money has been withdrawn from my account, just the site says it hasn't "shipped" it to WVU yet. Strange. Does anyone else have this problem and what did you do?
Yup-- it was technical difficulties on there end; their admissions coordinator caught it when she double checked. Just wanted to throw that in for anyone who hadn't received an II yet and was curious as to why-- I just scheduled mine 🙂 WV is so expensive to fly into though!The most logical thing to do would be to contact the Admissions Office: 304-293-1439 or via the email ([email protected]).

No that email is useless. I would use the medadmissions@.... one. The secondaryapP@ email is exclusive for secondary material submission. (for furture folks to keep in mind)The most logical thing to do would be to contact the Admissions Office: 304-293-1439 or via the email ([email protected]).
You still got other chances! Good luck to you!Just got rejected. Good luck everyone!
There are a few that are blind and strictly based on your interview. Ohio State is one of them, but I know there are a couple others. I find it interesting because it's like your interview depends strictly on your interview skills.@Mountaineer12 thanks! I figure most schools are open file
I'm driving down from NY. 8 hours, but I will try to enjoy the scenery 😛
There's always the option of flying into Pittsburgh and renting a car or taking one of the buses to Morgantown. Just thought for you or anyone else that might be trying to save a few bucks on travel!Yup-- it was technical difficulties on there end; their admissions coordinator caught it when she double checked.

Thank goodness I live in MD. It's a 4-6 hour drive for me lol
