Added this school last week, how long does it take to receive a complete email?
Congrats to all the interview invites people are getting! Quick question, are any of you who got the II applying for MD/PhD?

Yes. But I'm OOS and I think they're prioritizing IS first
Well, they have hundreds, maybe thousands, of IS applications to go through, so don't despair!
It's only the second day. I wouldn't freak.... then again I was freaking out yesterday so I get it
Okay, would you mind sharing your scores?
I also saw that Fall 2018 wasn't an option. I called several times the office number they gave in the email for any questions, but no one was there. Have you been able to reach them?
Yes! They said to choose fall 2017 and they will change it on their end because there is nothing they can do about it since it's a school-wide application.

If you got interview invites, would you be okay with sharing your stats, and whether or not you are IS and EDP. I'm applying next year and it would be very helpful.
I am IS, applied EDP with LizzyM of 74

Did anyone else receive an invitation to apply to the rural health program here? I am wondering if this could mean an II is on the way??

what do you put for the "are you applying for a dual degree program" is you are NOT MD/PhD? The emails says to only select "No" if MD/PhD, but if you pick yes it says stuff about an additional application and so on?
Yeah, my LizzyM is ~66 but I'm retaking the MCAT in September so hopefully it should go up! My MCAT was 506

Do I select yes or no for dual degree if not MD/PhD....
I think the way they phrased it in the email was confusing, but I'm not MD/PhD and I said no.
Okay so did I... does your portal status just say in process? All we do is pay the fee and answer those basic questions on the grad application and then we pick location, correct?

Yeah that's what I did, and mine says the same thing. I also had both of the required forms sent off to IUSM today, although from the portal it seems like those can be uploaded even after the interview.
Anybody applying MSTP and got verification of their primary? My AMCAS was verified on 6/10 and have not received a confirmation on receipt of the primary yet.

Yeah, but my app was verified 7/27.
Rejected just now. OOS, 3.7, 509-511, 2 first-author pubs/1 co-author in ortho surgery. Oh well. First rejection stings a bit.
Keep your head up, you've got 2 IIs! That's something to be proud of. And it's certainly more than what some of us have.
Rejected OOS as well. No biggie. IU must not like good OOS candidates
Very good mindset ahahaa
Added this school last week and haven't heard anything yet 😀 should I call them? Or send them an email?

I got an email from IU on 7/10.
*hides under covers*
In state II!
I got rejected OOS. I wish I did my research on this school more because apparently they really like OOS applicants to have a tie to the state.
Possibly dumb question, but are adcoms any more/less likely to consider OOS people from nearby states vs very far away? For example, from the midwest applying to midwest schools vs from the south applying midwest etc?
I think it makes sense to have better chances if you live in a boarder state. I have lower stats and am OOS but am an IL resident and haven't gotten a rejection so that could be why.
I sent a letter to the office about my state ties, but it was also indicated on my primary app since I had lived in Indiana until college and my permanent family address is in Indiana.

I had pretty much the same stats, rejected too today. A good way to deal with rejection is alcohol!
South Bend might be closest? It's right near the border.
Yeah, Fort Wayne and south bend are the closest, so I think I'm just going with Fort wayne
A piece of information for people going in to the applicant portal: make sure you click the correct city you want to interview at on the first try. Made my decision for the city I wanted and the next time I entered the portal the box was grayed out and couldn't be changed!
howwww do you schedule the interview? I've selected a city, and it's grayed out now, but it won't give me any dates to choose from? Do I need to do the whole application first?
