No, pre-interview

Clearly people who received the pre-interview "hold" email are also still receiving interviews, but out of curiosity how is the rest of your application? In state, ECs/work supporting their mission? Did you submit early?
 
Yeah I have strong ECs, story and everything. I also submitted like less than 3 days after I received the secondary. I guess we will just wait lol also oos

I interviewed September 6th and heard back a week after! Just as a comparative, but maybe it was earlier in the cycle?

About what time of the day did you receive the call?

Congrats! I interview at Knoxville on 11/8. Was there anything that stood out to you? Good or bad?

Well, first, congrats!! I really liked faculty and students alot! They were super casual with each other and super super helpful. The Dean literally came and talked to us and was like your cool uncle. But, the one thing that might take some getting used to would just be the building, it's just a really big office building. But, the cadaver lab and simulation lab was really well put together. Additionally, they seem to be extremely receptive to comments from the students expecially since it's a newer campus. I would say the one "bad" thing would be the away rotation sites which I've heard are a hit/miss but I honestly think that any DO school.
 
Hey all! Was blessed to receive an acceptance call last night around 7:30 for the Harrogate campus. I just wanted to let everyone know that in my interview (10/04/19) they said calls can still come until Friday. So don't lose hope I'm sure more acceptances are coming everyone's way!

There’s so little Friday left today. 🙁

Oh one more thing. At our interview, they mentioned that applicants were going to receive emails with a decision by the end of the week...however, since it's the end of the week, they might have even pushed it back. Also, on the call, I was told that I wouldn't receive any email/notice of acceptance until around next Tuesday, so maybe they will finalize by Monday!
 
This is my second time applying here. I did what they said to improve and they still put me on an interview waitlist. I even applied earlier. Not sure what to do, I took their feedback to heart and improved myself. They put me on an interview waitlist last year too and they silent rejected me.

Can I ask what your stats are? I’m hoping I won’t be rejected silently...
 
are acceptance calls for the 9/27 and 10/4 interview dates done? or will there be more calls...

Someone mentioned to me in DM that they said acceptances can go through the weekend, but, nonetheless it is definitely causing me to lose hope.

Thank you for your feedback!
 
Hey everyone, current 1st year here (you have no idea how happy that makes me feel to say that LOL). When I was applying last cycle, current med students (either 1-4 years) on here gave me some valuable feedback and helped clarify some of the questions I had about the school, so now i'm paying it forward. Congrats to those accepted so far. For those that haven't heard back yet for an II, are waiting for your secondary to come in, or just waiting for new scores to post... just know that it's a long process. There is plenty of time to hear back, so just focus on improving your app, continue to send in updates, and do things you enjoy. If you have any specific questions about the school just DM me, I was in your shoes last year so i'm happy to answer all your questions. I'm pretty busy haha but i'll try and get back to you accordingly.

Goodluck to everyone!

Thanks for the motivation! Just to clarify, we can send in updates? And if so, how do we go about doing that?
