I thought that TTU was going to send pre-matches every two weeks on thursday given the pattern, 10/15, 10/29, and 11/12. But the next Thursday to release would've been 11/26 (Thanksgiving). I wonder if we will see another wave this Thursday (12/3), or if they are going to wait until next Thursday (12/10).
I interviewed 10/30 and it didn't look like any 10/30 interviews received a prematch on 11/12, so I am hopeful for this next wave!

Several schools that have been doing waves every two weeks didn't have one because of Thanksgiving. I'm definitely expecting the next wave to be this Thursday.
 
Has the TMDSAS match rank updated for anyone who interviewed 2 weeks ago?
 
Hi! So I was invited for an interview on Dec. 11 and I was wondering if I should send an update in regards to my application. I was lacking clinical experiences, but I've been working as a scribe. I noted on my primary application in the "future activities" section that I was going to be working as a scribe so what should I do?

No need to send an update, just talk about it at your interview! Good luck!

Did you have your interview in November if you don't mind me asking? I had it mid November but it is still not showing up!

I had mine in November and it showed up the next morning after my interview. I don’t think it’s indicative of anything so don’t worry!! They just haven’t updated your status on tmdsas yet 🙂
 
Anyone know how many interviews are usually sent out and what their class size is?
 
Are we able to receive a pre-match offer before they’ve updated our status to interviewed on TMDSAS? I had an interview recently but I haven’t been given the option to rank the school yet in TMDSAS and want to know if that means I shouldn’t get my hopes up yet

The TMDSAS rank has no correlation with prematch offers. Only required for the match process

I wonder how likely is it that prematches were sent but that no one on here got one?

It's pretty good odds. I know it isn't exactly relevant but UArizona-Phoenix only had 2 people post on SDN that they got accepted but more than 15 people were accepted in the last wave. (They have an II/A Tracker on their website.)

OOS here. I interviewed a week ago so not expecting to hear anything for a bit. You?

I interviewed in September and haven't heard anything. I know one person on this thread said they interviewed in October/November and were accepted about two weeks after that. I also know that OOS students can hear back from October 15th to whenever class starts.
 
Got an interview this evening. Does anyone know how generous Lubbock is when it comes to scholarships? Cos im considering dipping.

Hey there! Scholarships are awarded at seemingly random intervals. I pre-matched, along with several of my friends, & I received a scholarship of $10k per year for all 4 years ($40k total), which is about 1/2 of tuition & fees, but my other friends who pre-matched at the same time haven’t heard back yet. I don’t know how many scholarships they give out before match day, but I know there is also a general scholarship application that can be filled out as well.
 
A couple of people in this thread have mentioned updates but I don't see anything about them in the portal. Can I just send admissions an update letter as a PDF in an email?

Thanks!! Really appreciate the response!

Thanks, but I see that is for the whole school of health professions. I believe it may be Dr. Felix Morales specifically for the school of Medicine, but wanted to confirm with someone!

Now that you mention it, that name does sound familiar from my interview date.

This confirms he is the associate Dean for admissions.
