Does TTUHSC accept pre-interview updates?

Edit: Question answered. They only accept letters of interest or update letters up until October 15th.

That's not true.
I called 2 weeks ago and they said they would accept any and all letters to your file.

Hey man, be sure to check the portal. I got 0 emails, 0 anything since submitting secondary in September. Heard absolutely *nothing* between now and then. Was doing some searching in email and re-checked the portal - I had gotten my interview invite awhile ago, apparently, and was never notified (which might be how its done, but either way I am very grateful) and was able to schedule, albeit in December.

@JBL15TX , wow! That must have been an awesome discovery!
 
What dates were you offered? And sorry whats ORM?

ORM = Over represented Minority, i.e. Asians and Caucasians.

I saw one remaining date, 12/9 when I scheduled my II yesterday, but I was told there was a 12/11 as well.
 
Anyone interviewing on 11/20 and want to share a room? I'm staying 2 nights since airfare was much cheaper, but more $$$ = 🙁
 
This is an awkward question, but are we supposed to be refreshing our emails for the offer? Or is it on TMDSAS?
i got an offer to a different school but its through email

Someone seemed to have received their offer for Southwestern through the "Pre-Match Offer Withdrawal" section of TMDSAS.

Your offers should come by email. I received my UTSW offer via the TMDSAS portal under the pre-match offer withdrawal section but I also received an acceptance email from them. I also received acceptances from UTHSCSA and TCOM but through email only. For whatever reason UTSW was the only school in TMDSAS.
 
Any idea of when Tech historically has sent their pre-match offers? Haven't heard anything, and judging by this thread neither has anybody else.

I am in the same boat as you, I haven't heard anything yet. From what I read this morning I know UTSW and UTMB have already sent out invites, while no invites have been sent from Tech or A&M. On a side note, I interviewed last Friday (11/13). Is there a chance I could still get an early pre-match from Tech?
 
Congrats to all those that pre-matched today!! Anyone know how often these batches get sent out? Like per week? I interviewed 8/26, but didn't get a pre-match offer. I hope I get one from this school..
 
Will be withdrawing from my II here. Good luck everyone!
 
Is it possible to get a pre-match offer via TMDSAS and not get an email? This is what happened to me and I'm confused.
 
Out of curiosity, did those of you who interviewed feel like the interviewers had a good knowledge of your file?

I feel like my two interviews may as well have been closed-file; neither of my interviewers brought up a single thing from my application or knew about my background.

I had one that interviewed me with my file open, the other didn't 🙂

Yeah neither one of my interviews had my file out they just really wanted to get to know me outside of my resume and application. I thought this was a bad thing as I really could not outline my strengths of the application, but it worked out!
