Within the last few minutes? I've been obsessively refreshing my email since people were saying they got II around noon.
Yes, I got it around then too. 12:09 to be exact

My friend who got an interview yesterday was complete 7/31 we were chatting and we wonder if it is a bottom of the pile vs top. So we are at the bottom bc we submit early :oops: he has 510/3.9 too with a low CARS
How low are we talking, if you don't mind sharing?

Been unable to create an account and access the secondary application for 5 days now. Called admissions twice and they were unable to fix it then referred me to the liaison's office where they played a recorded message saying everyone was attending an organization wide meeting....ugh
 
Do any of you guys know what type of interview it is? Thought I read on some correspondence from the school that it is academically blind, but I can't seem to find it again.

Did you find out anything about the type of interview at U of L?
 
Anyone heard anything since the first batch of II’s?

I was in a similar situation, until you "spoke to soon" haha, I still havent heard back. I was confirmed on Aug 13th (I think... sometime around then). IS 511, 3.97 gpa. Hopefully I hear back soon, considering there has been some action here this week.

Keep in mind you were confirmed about 3 weeks after me. I would be positive, you have good stats and IS. It seems like this was only the 2 round of interview invites. ;)

I don't think your chances are bad. I know you probably are worried about the MCAT, but I think it will really depend on if maybe your ECs make up for it at all

Yes, I think my EC's are competitive. I just HATE the waiting... I am going insane. Thank you!

To give you a frame of reference, I applied two cycles ago with these stats: 504 127/123/128/126 GPAc: 3.58 GPAs: 3.48 (my senior year GPA took a hit due to medical issues) and solid ECs (research, multiple leadership roles, TAing, summer programs, shadowing, etc.) and received an interview late November and scheduled for early December. Applied last cycle after retaking my MCAT 505 126/124/126/129 and adding a year of EMS experience and received an interview invite early November and interviewed mid November. Applying this cycle after retaking my MCAT again 508 128/126/127/127, taking 18 additional upper level science credits to make my GPAc 3.67 and GPAs: 3.55, shadowing 4 more docs, and volunteering another 130 hours. I submitted my primary and secondary a little later this cycle, but I anticipate hearing something within the next couple of weeks. I would wager you get offered an interview in late October/early November, similar to my second cycle based on your stats, but thats purely a guesstimation so take it with a grain of salt. The good news is that UL has interview dates typically within a week of being offered one. This has at least held true for the last two cycles in my experience, as compared to say UK who probably has their dates filled up to October at this point. So theres definitely hope! Hang tough and stay positive!

Hey, for all who have interviewed by Sep, did they make it seem like we would hear back Oct. 15th? I know that we could hear between then and March, but considering a Sep interview is early in the grand scheme of things, do yall think we will hear on the 15th? Asking for a friend. LOL
 
Interview Invite yesterday. Complete August 27. OOS. Went to UK. MCAT: 508. GPA: 3.72.

I think it's likely. Their committee meets every two weeks and they made it pretty clear they'd be making decisions on us during that time even though notifications won't happen until the 15th.

Can anyone who has interviewed with U of L give me some information regarding how the interview set up and what kinds of questions they asked? Do we know the faculty who will interview us? I will be driving there next week Wednesday for Thursday's interview. No looking forwards for 7 hours drive and do not want to be surprised. lol. Thanks.
 
Does anyone know around what time we can expect to hear about acceptances today?

It is two individual interviews (I had one MD and one PhD). They were fairly laid back and didn't have any situational questions or questions on current events/ACA. Really loved the way their structure their interview day because you are paired one on one with a current student and they are super helpful for telling you what attending ULSOM is really like. I wouldn't stress out over it, it's very laid back. Great interview day, awesome school and I was just accepted this morning!
 
Accepted!! Interviewed 9/27. IS resident OOS undergrad
