Hopefully they answer the phone today! I’d be really sad if it was an accident

Update: I called and I was finally able to speak to someone regarding the email! She told me she would look into my file and call me back only if there were changes made (something about the system not being updated at the time we were on the phone). If my file had no changes, then I would not here from her. o_O

What does that mean? If an interview disappeared does that mean, we don’t have one?

Honestly, I’m not so sure. Her response was very vague. I don’t want to call the office back for clarification because that will probably annoy them lol
 
ok WAIT. just got this email

"You may have received an e-mail yesterday inviting you to interview at the University of South Florida Health Morsani College of Medicine. Please be advised that the medical school admissions process is highly competitive and interview slots tend to fill up very quickly.

If you were unable to schedule your interview in the applicant portal, please be vigilant of your e-mail as we are working diligently to open additional slots."

I got the next step email yesterday, did NOT get an interview email yesterday. I am going insane.

Same! I'm super confused.

+1 I think this is a good sign, though.

I am sure your email will come later today or tomorrow. Remember, most of us were in the same situation before the most recent II email was sent out. Hang in there

Anyone who has already attended an interview know if USF is sticking with the high pass/pass/ etc grading scale going into the new year? Or if it will change anytime in the next few years?
 
Congratulations to those who received interviews!
Are you guys IS or OOS? Just curious bc Im an OOS applicant; I heard USF was somewhat OOS friendly...
They are well within my stats but I’ve had complete silence from them since submitting in early July.

Does anyone know if there is like a social event the night before? Trying to figure it out before I buy a flight

There was a PDF attached to your interview day confirmation that has all of the details. Some of the medical students offer hosting also.

I received the "take the next step email" two days ago, then yesterday received the "You may have received an e-mail yesterday inviting you to interview" email, but I have not received the official II email that some people are talking about. Anyone else in the same position? Just trying to figure out what is going on.
 
Finally got the interview email, so excited.

Maybe check your spam folder? I actually did receive the “take the next steps” email before the II email, but it was within 30 min.

edit: Congrats!

It seems like they are planning to stick with it. Most of the students I talked to seemed happy with the system, and didn't feel like honors put too much added pressure on them.

How is the interview here? More high-stress or chill?
 
Does anyone have any advice for the interview?

Don’t book an Airbnb with Amastay. Currently still at TPA trying to find alternate accommodations because they took my money and went AWOL lol.

The Airbnb support team is working on setting me up with another host, but if that doesn’t work out, I will definitely just stay there. I checked their availability earlier and they thankfully have open rooms.
