I've been complete since mid-August, but looking through the application portal I see that under forms there's the "Notification of withdrawal from consideration" listed as required. I initially ignored this because obviously I don't want to withdraw my application and I don't want to click on the link for fear of accidentally withdrawing my application. Does everyone else see the same thing as me? Has anyone explored this link? Is there anything truly required about it?

I believe this is only if you want to withdraw your app.

Everyone sees it, do not click it unless you want to withdraw.
 
@ amigos who have done the interview already, is the Sunday orientation something we actively participate in ? (Like, cameras on etc?)

Hey! Don't worry about that. You would only select it if you want to rescind your acceptance or remove your application from consideration. And because UNC is the best school in the world, why would you ever want to do that?

Does your online portal get updated when you receive an II?

Hi! For the last people who got II here, what kind of dates were they offering?

Do you know how long UNC typically waits between an interview and a preliminary decision?
Click to expand...
In past years it seems like they accept a few in Oct/Nov, which I'm assuming are the really strong applicants. But they're notorious for releasing most decisions in March. I interviewed last cycle in Sept and got waitlisted in March lol

Hello Everyone ,

If anyone has done their interview already please share --what questions you were asked and also the structure ? Was the vibe good ?

Thank You :)

So I'm gonna jump in here before anyone gets themselves in trouble. Part of the interview is agreeing not to share specific questions/scenarios. The general format however is public- one 1 on 1 interview and a series of MMI type scenarios. Sorry, but that's about all the info you can get ahead of time. Otherwise, those who have interviewed are free to comment on vibe :)

Yeah, unfortunately this is accurate. Rare few will hear back before December. There's usually a smaller wave in mid Dec and the majority in March. This is a long game y'all. Hang in there!

hey there fellow interviewees.
For the sunday info sessions, are we expected to dress in full formal as if it were the interview? Or is it more casual/semi casual

Current MS1, you can dress however you want, most people have been dressing formal but I’d say something like a polo shirt if you’re a guy or something equivalent would be totally okay.
 
Also, if y’all have any questions for a current student feel free to message me! I’m happy to be a resource especially if anyone is OOS
 
II today! I could not be more excited, I did not think I had a chance. Good luck everyone!

where did you get the link to register for it --I cannot find it on their site ?
Click to expand...
It comes with the interview invite

Edited to clarify: The orientation is interview specific. They send you an email that contains the link to the orientation after you accept your interview invite and register for your interview date.

I never received an email to register for attendify, but I was able to contact admissions and they re-sent the link. If anyone else has this problem, definitely reach out to admissions ASAP. PM me if you need help

Does anyone understand the differences between the 4 campuses

Excellent question :) Everyone starts the first year and a half at UNC in Chapel Hill, but for 3rd (and possibly 4th year) we have partnerships with other hospitals in the state to do clinical rotations. Central campus includes UNC, but also Cone Health in Greensboro and WakeMed in Raleigh. Some students will do all of their rotations at either WakeMed or Greensboro, but students assigned to Chapel Hill will also do some of their rotations at one or both of those campuses. We also have campuses in Asheville, Wilmington, and the newly re-established campus in Charlotte (previously at Atrium, now at Novant). Raleigh and Charlotte have a focus on urban underserved populations. Asheville is known for its longitudinal curriculum. The other campuses go one rotation at a time, eg hospital pediatrics, then OB-Gyn, then inpatient psychiatry, etc. Asheville covers the same specialities, but you do all of them over the year instead of one at a time, so you have better opportunities to have continuity both with patients and preceptors. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

It was great seeing so many applicants today! Thank you all for your patience with rescheduling. I'm sorry for any inconvenience or stress. I think we just had multiple unforeseen things happen all at once, but a lot of people worked really hard to pull it together for y'all. We are so excited to see future classmates, and hope you can forgive the schedule mishaps and know we definitely value your time and presence. :)

I thought I remember them saying in the orientation that we would hear back around December earliest (April 1st latest). Am I just misremembering things?
