2018-2019 University of Arizona - Phoenix

[SplashMountain12]

Also deferred again (I have been deferred since August). The email said the next date was March 4th? Is that probably the last decision date since schools have to make decisions on applications by March 15h (or something like that)?

I think they just have admit their class size by that date. So it is possible that we can be admitted after that. From what I've heard, waiting months post II until admission is pretty typical for both AZ schools.

Received II for Pathway Scholars Program
Will be on Monday

 

[NakMuay33]

II today. OOS. Very surprised this late in the game. PM me if you want any additional details.

Does anyone have insight into the interview? I know it’s 10 MMI stations but are any of the stations traditional or open file questions? Or are they all just situational

One scenario station, most traditional type questions, a couple curve balls. Nothing was too crazy and I felt very comfortable.

Wait there’s traditional questions? I called the admissions office to ask and I was told explicitly it’s all scenarios and no traditional

You called admissions?? R E L A X. Seriously. Know your application, basic ethics, and just be a normal human being and you'll be fine. Stressing yourself out trying to figure out what to expect will only be a detriment to you. Go in there with a clear head and be present to the moment.

Got an interview invite on 1/25. Still trying to decide if I should take it since OOS and already have other acceptances that would be less expensive

If you could see yourself going here over any other acceptances then go for it! Otherwise, I would turn down the interview and save myself the cost of traveling.

Traditional as in this is not an in person CASPER test. Not every station is you acting in a certain role to an scenario. You'll have some questions about what you think and some about your experiences.

Edit: I don't mean traditional in the sense that they asked me "why medicine" or "why this school". It's very conversational. Don't freak out.

Did not take interview! Good luck to whoever they offer it to!

 

[honey&champagne]

does anyone know when the last decison/re-review day is, and if after that if people are either rejected or put on a waitlist?

 

[chief_bison15]

II just now! Only one date available late Feb

 

[Fdjkslfe]

Does anyone know the school's policy on thank you notes?

 

[ped_inc]

Does anyone know the school's policy on thank you notes?

I'm not sure about what you mean by policy, but Dr. Fogerty told my interview group that they loved thank you notes and hung them up in the admissions office.

 

[Fdjkslfe]

I'm not sure about what you mean by policy, but Dr. Fogerty told my interview group that they loved thank you notes and hung them up in the admissions office.

Thanks! I was told that they only accept thank you letters by mail. I just wanted to confirm that.

 

[evandice]

Thanks! I was told that they only accept thank you letters by mail. I just wanted to confirm that.

I emailed my thank you letter to adcom, and Dr. Fogerty personally replied! I don't think they mind email or mail; he just told us during interview day that they would prefer if we sent all thank you letters to the committee directly and not to any faculty that we talked to.

 

[futureFormerChild]

R today around noon, OOS submitted mid Aug

 

[honey&champagne]

does anyone know if today is the last decision day and if there is an alternate/waitlist

 

[NakMuay33]

Your question is a bit vague. Did you interview? Are you waiting for an interview?

If you are waiting for an interview, it will likely be an R. They conducted their last interview day on Feb 18th.

oh haha sorry, I have interviewed, it was way back in early October, and have been on rereview ever since. Kinda just want it to be over

 

[NakMuay33]

oh haha sorry, I have interviewed

Aha! I see. Well for the last interview day, they told us they'd release acceptances on March 18th via phone call. So I have reason to believe there are decisions coming out later in this month, but I don't know how that applies to different interview days. I would go off of what they told you on your interview day, and if you can't remember, just contact the admissions office for clarification.

 

[Sdoc33]

Anyone gotten a good news call yet? Praying for you all!!!

Do the deferment emails come on the same day as acceptance calls? And were they usually sent later in the day?

the first one was sent around noon, the second one was sent late in the afternoon, and the third one was sent the next morning, i believe. might be a long wait. ha ha ha...

[NakMuay33]

I’m sure it will be here sooner than we think!

 

[McDreamy34]

Does anyone know how to find the match list? I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Thank you in advance!

 

[PsshaawHolmes]

For the class of 2018, you can find the full list in their commencement brochure here: http://phoenixmed.arizona.edu/sites/default/files/news/images/commencement2018-program.pdf

I don't see anything for the class of 2019 yet except for some "fast facts" here:
Match Day

It says 67 students matched. Is the class size 80 students for 2019?

[PsshaawHolmes]

Each class has been 80 students since 2012 so most likely the 13 missing students either were lost to attrition over the four years or didn't match.
