Oh seriously? I thought I went through that but I’ll be more thorough through that section since I did accept the non-binding and got nothing. It does help but now I’m worried I deleted it somehow! Lol
I heard back 3 weeks after my interview!
Nice! How did you feel your interview went?
Use the link on the interview page, it is a link that will take you to zoom (do this maybe 10 minutes ahead of the interview time so that after you click on the link you know it works and will have time to update zoom if it requires it).
I felt like it had gone super well! Both interviewers had said I was a really good fit for the school and were super encouraging!
I felt like my interviews were both super conversational! Both interviewers (one physicians and one M4) had thoroughly read my application and mostly asked me about certain points they found interesting! They both gave me their emails at the end of the interview without me even asking.
My first interview (physician) was very conversational- all of her questions were based on my app, and she answered all of my questions at length. My second interviewer (MS3) asked mostly canned questions but was very engaged. I don't think I normally interview well and I actually felt extremely comfortable in both interviews and even enjoyed them! I mailed thank you cards to the admissions office since I forgot to ask for emails and couldn't find them online.
I asked admissions if they could provide me with the emails of my interviewers and admissions told me to write thank-you letters and upload them to the "documents" section in the portal. You can select "Thank You Letter" for the document type.
Congrats! Good luck with your interview!!! Now if the admissions committee would just realize how much I want to go here LOLOL I guess all I can do is keep hoping and praying at this point!
Congrats!!! That's awesome! When is your interview?
If you prepare then no, its by far the most conversational
I scheduled mine for mid-February. However, there were lots of dates available, from as early as this week stretching into the beginning of April.
mind sharing stats
Congrats!! No the phone call just seems to be a nice formality that Loma Linda does with their acceptances. I could barely talk on mine cause of the excitement, so I guess at least you didn’t look dumb like me lol
Thank you so much for the reply. Congratulations to you as well 🙂
When were you complete?
Yes. See #314.
Yeah! 512, 3.76, IS
That's good to hear! Mind sharing ur stats?
Congrats!! When is your interview?
Thanks! I'm scheduled for mid-Feb
Excited for you! Let us know how it goes 🙂
You're so sweet, will do! Hope you get an II soon, it looks like there were a lot more slots still!
I'd say be prepared to talk about what you did in the time between re-applying and what's different about you now compared to the last cycle.
Not at all, I was kicking myself after because it was so conversational!
It took me a couple of weeks to receive the email for student portal.
I emailed admissions 3 weeks ago and have not received a reply. I just wanted to confirm my application was complete and in final review because on my interview day my interviewers no-showed and they had to get new interviewers and I never received any information from admissions following the interview. I also interviewed in early December.
Sorry to hear that. Do you mind sharing your stats and when you were complete?
