FYI the Vanderbilt admissions tracker now says 735 interview invitations sent... meaning they are likely close if not already done sending interview invites. They sent a total of 758 last year, 658 the year before that, and 551 the year before that.

oh that's strange. They told us just two weeks ago that they were aiming for 650 this year.

The tracker includes MSTP and MIDP. What you were told probably related to MD-only. In any event, given the fact that it is now January 20th, it's probably safe to say they are done, other than maybe filling in some last minute cancellations.

You're right haha. You reminded me of something else too- When Vanderbilt sent us IIs, this was the only schools that didn't seperate time slots by application type. I almost accidentally signed up for MIDP and MSTP interview slots.

oh shoot I totally didn't realize that when scheduling... now I'm worried I signed up for a MIDP or MSTP slot. is there a way to check this on the portal or something?

To my knowledge no, everything came over email from then on. You probably did the right one, as there's like 5x as many MD IIs as the others ones, so if you didn't look you probs clicked the right one.
 
hi everyone, not sure if this was stated before but when can we expect to hear back in feb regarding decisions? they told my interview group in late november that we would hear in february and was wondering when in the month (assuming mid).

If you’re MSTP I actually emailed a little bit back and they said that if you hadn’t heard back you were still under consideration for an invite through mid Feb which is when the last interview date is.

Hey guys 🙂 I have my interview coming up soon and I just started preparing for it. I was looking at the questions they have asked in the past, and I saw that there were some questions along the lines of "where else did you apply" and "why did you apply there" I thought that wasn't allowed? I just wanted to know if this was a question I should prepare to answer gracefully, I guess.

I personally never got a question about where else I applied in any of my interviews this cycle including Vanderbilt.

Now it says 743, which means that Vandy’s post II rate for last and this cycle is going to lower than it used to be. Probably the same with a lot of other schools too
