Middle of July!
Hey everyone!
I am a medical student here at Dartmouth and I want to congratulate everyone who got accepted already. I would also like to wish everyone else best of luck with the rest of the process.
For those who got accepted, we set up a facebook page for the Class of 2021 called "2021 Dartmouth Geisel School of Medicine Admitted Students Group". It is a great place to connect with other admitted students and ask current medical students any questions about the school. Please feel free to join it!

You could fly into Manchester and take a shuttle. Or fly into Boston Logan and rent a car. (Alas, it was still too expensive for me to make the trek out there.)
Same. RIP wallet. Hello Cheerios for breakfast, lunch, dinner...Does anyone know if Jan 24 is their last interview date?
Fly to Boston and take the Dartmouth coach from the airport, tis definitely the cheapest option
They also play classic old movies, which is awesome. On my coach up they played the original karate kid. Killer.
Same here! I also ran into a 3rd year med student on the bus who gave me interview tips and told me about the school!

Just sharing my experience. My significant other travels with me to every interview so she can see the area as well. With her, it was cheapest for us to fly into Boston Logan and get a rental car, than it was to purchase 4 tickets (there and back) on the Dartmouth coach.
II just now. Complete in late August/early September
Given 1/12 1/19 1/24. Not sure if I will go yet, as all three are extremely inconvenient dates.

Dartmouth, being turned down is rough. I can be there for you these dates... Just saying... Think about it.

Do you guys know until when they interview? seems like jan 24th is the last date being offered?
They said on my interview date (early Jan) that it could be till April till we hear back, but I've read on here must expect 4-6 weeks post interview. What's the truth? Do most hear in a month and they just told us April so we won't bug them if we're the unlucky undesirables?
I interviewed on 11/15, so it's around 8 weeks now. I'm sure it varies.

They interview right into late March/April at least they have in previous years.
After the interview, every applicant is ranked on a list and Dartmouth accepts and rejects people from the top and bottom of the list throughout the cycle, so everyone in the middle may not get a decision until April, when a waitlist is generated.
I interviewed on 11/15 too! Hopefully we both get good news soon.
When did you interview?ACCEPTED OH MY GOD 😍crying real tears rn because I loved this place so much & I can finally ball out at LL Bean lol

Accepted!!! Via email, interviewed 11/1/2016
Anyone out there been rejected post-interview?
This week was my 5 week mark and seeing these acceptance (congrats!), I'm realizing it'll be at least another couple of weeks of anxiety T__T
I think they send out acceptances every 2 weeks.

Anyone know when the wait list starts coming out or when those who are tabled/deferred get looked at again? Are they going to go through all the people who interview in Dec-End before they re-examine who's left? Interviewed in October and haven't heard a word yet. For that matter, has anyone been rejected post interview?

same boat, same Q
I'm new to this forum, what do you mean stats below? Yours? and do you mean on your profile or on the Dartmouth forum?
If you look at my signature directly below this post, you will see my LizzyM and date of completion for my applications. For schools that review applications in order they are received, it helps people know where they are in the review process if I post I received an interview invitation, or I was rejected.
For those schools, if I post I was rejected and complete in early October, someone who has not been rejected yet, and who was complete earlier, knows there is the possibility remaining that one will receive an interview invitation, or is at least under serious consideration for an interview. Of course, this is not true for all schools. It is helpful to check the thread for that year, and previous years.
