do people on the waitlist also have a chance of getting accepted today? Or do they reevaluate the waitlist after all of the interview dates?

Has anyone who interviewed 12/9-12/11 heard back yet?
Yep. I just got the WL email.
Accepted today via email for the WARM program! Didn’t get a phone call, (minus 5 spam calls that took a year off my life). Not sure if WARM does calls or not. IS, interviewed 1/6-1/8.
Best thing you can do is really focus on knowing yourself, your story, and why UW. Beyond that, build a solid rapport (as much as you can in 30 min) and enjoy yourself! I had such a tremendous interviewer and a great experience - hoping the same for you.
Doubt that. An interview is feedback given by one of their own, so I feel they probably take it into consideration more. Who knows though.

Today marks 8 weeks since my interview and I still haven't heard anything...is anyone else in the same boat? Really considering emailing admissions if I don't hear back by the end of the day Monday or Tuesday.

I think we interviewed the same day. When did they say we’d hear after 2 weeks? Turnaround time is 6-8 weeks if I remember correctly.

Oh my gosh I totally meant to write 8 weeks - my bad. Yeah I interviewed 12/11.
Got it, you should be hearing back soon then. I remember they said they were very busy and although it usually takes them 6-8 weeks, it could be 8 or more for my group. Maybe wait until the end of next week?
I believe financial aid offers are given in March or April. When given a scholarship upon admission, it won't be included on this offer because of how their financial aid office and admissions office communicate. (PM me and I can explain more! I talked to their financial aid person for the med school because I was a little confused about this)

Do we think that interviewing at the end of February is like interviewing for the waitlist? Or does WI have true rolling admissions?

Quick question for those of you who interviewed. I interview this week and can't find any information on which time zone the activities take place in. I understand Wisconsin is in CST, but I don't see that listed on the portal anywhere. To confuse matters even further the WebEx interview time given to me is in MST (and I am in EST). I am going to go with the assumption that all times listed are in CST correct? Thanks in advice for the help and good luck to those still waiting to hear back!
Yeah the interview times are in CST. So since your in EST you’ll be an hour ahead

Thanks for the quick response. I figured as much. Just wanted to make sure.
Acceptance call just now! Interviewed late January. OOS.
Congrats! Earlier than expected too - their tweet today said to expect the next wave of offers Monday.
Edit: Does that now make 14 acceptances?!?! What is your secret?!
Yeah I was very surprised by the timing.
13. Nothing crazy but an extremely unique life story and path to medicine.
Week of 22nd or 29th?

On the interview information it says to upload a headshot onto the "photo tab," but does anyone know when that will show up? My interview is in a week. I also don't have an interview tab.
Any other acceptances today?
The photo tab is under the interview tab when you click on it. I’m not positive but I think mine was there later the same day I got the interview invite. Definitely was there over a week ahead of time. Maybe contact them to check up on it?
I also interview next week and still don't have an interview tab

Just got a spam call from a WI area code and I think my heart exploded

This is gonna be me after I interview. My phone has a 608 area code so all my spam calls come from WI. Not looking forward to answering every one “just in case” lol
I was at work when a milwaukee code called me and missed it. Pick up all phone numbers hahaha
Did your acceptance call come from a 262 or 414 area code?
Just got the WL email. Interviewed Jan 13-15.
