Discover Your Odds of Getting into Medical School
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I was complete 7/18 (OOS, average/lower stats) and have heard nothing. I know an MS4 here and he said they're notoriously slow but hold interviews through the spring

Interview waitlists for every date except for the one in 3 days... smh

It was so frustrating! From the East Coast and it’s a pretty expensive flight so close to the date, unsure why they couldn’t have let us know just a few weeks earlier, right?

Just curious, has anyone received a post II rejection? Like a lot of people here I was waitlisted, but I wonder if that's just the default if you had an interview?

I know someone pretty above RFU’s median who got a post-II rejection. Keep in mind not everyone’s gonna update this thread on post II rejections especially
 
For anyone that signed up for an interview waitlist today, did you get two separate (but different) emails confirming the date?

I got a “you have joined the interview waitlist” email immediately after signing up for a date, but about 10 minutes ago (2 hours after the first email) got a different email that began with:

“We’re writing to let you know that your registration for a campus interview is confirmed, so please make sure the below details match up with what you scheduled:”

The format of the second email looks almost identical to the scheduling emails I’ve gotten at other schools, and has no mention of a waitlist. I was assuming that I would be waiting a few days at the least to be pulled off the waitlist.
 
II today but only showed dates that were fully booked? Had to sign up for the waitlist for 1/15 (only date that had waitlist option-said rest were fully booked). If I don't get off waitlist for that date, I'll get another opportunity (since they interview throughout march), right?

I was in the same boat, except the only available date for waitlist was 2/4, which actually works for me so long as I get off the waitlist. But it was my assumption that they would release more dates throughout the week (or at least they better because we only have a week to schedule the interview lol). It wouldn’t make sense at all for them to offer interview slots that weren’t actually available

I only received the 1 waitlist email. So my guess is that you were promptly taken off the waitlist and that is your actual interview day!

Interesting, I'll give them a call to confirm tomorrow. I did call them earlier today with some questions after getting the initial invite, but the kind lady I spoke with confirmed that the waitlists aren't too large to begin with, and that if the date you're WLed for doesn't open up, you'll have the chance to sign up for future dates as they open. Hope this clears things up for a few people.

I contacted them and they said they will add more dates for February. I registered for a date but since I am OOS, I'll reschedule for a later date when posted

Did you get confirmation for the date you scheduled? I'm about to stick it out and wait for another February date then
 
Just called as well, and the office confirmed that if you do get the confirmation email, you did get pulled from the interview waitlist!
 
Received II yesterday. OOS, ORM Complete Date: 7/12/19. Decided to decline the invitation, so hoping one of you will get it! Last I checked, there were 3 dates in February available for interview.
 
Anyone know how long the interview day lasts until for an 8 am start time? Trying to plan flights...

You will be done by 1pm. You could even leave earlier since the lunch is very casual and you’re not obligated to stay

Thank you so much!! Does anyone also know if they have student hosts to stay over by any chance?
 
Can anyone who has interviewed confirm that there is somewhere to leave your luggage during the interview day?
