Hi! I just interviewed here this morning. They do look at your entire application, including your grades/classes, extracurriculars, and essays. I was asked questions about all these things so make sure you know your application really well!

Just got put on an Interview Waitlist. Should I expect to hear something this year? Or does this mean I might be interviewed next year
Complete 10/8, OOS,
no ties to WV, strong ties to Ohio.

Based off last years thread there was movement later in the year. I think they are still moving through their regular IIs right now
Thank you so much! So later as in Dec or later next year (Jan onwards)?
You might get pulled off in Dec but the interviews might not be till next year
It's not over until its over

Interviewed today!! I think it went well and was super conversational even though I was so nervous 😅. They said we’ll be hearing back within a week which I thought was a really quick turn around

pre-II WL today, only submitted 10/18 so was pretty surprised to see anything this soon. OOS, strong rural interest, LM 74.7
I just did this morning!

I think that’s normal for OOS applicants that they like. They want to interview IS first, based off last years thread the OOS that got IIs immediately were the high stat strong ties ones.

OOS just got an II off of the waitlist for interview! Didn’t expect this one actually. Was put on the waitlist 7/14.
Are you in a bordering state?

At minimum 2 states between me and WV, so very OOS, but I did write about having family pretty close to the WV border in a neighboring state and a desire to work with populations in Appalachia due to life experiences in the area.
I have about 10 states [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
Can you provide any information on the interivew? Is it a traditional style interview where they ask questions, not an MMI right? I am a canadian so I am unsure where to find insight about US interview. Thanks!

out of state or in state?

This is an MD-PhD interview question, but specific to WVU. (For stats inquiries, bordering state and strong ties; C 8/15, II 10/11; WARS 91?)
When do MD-PhD interviewees get the PhD schedule? I have a month until my MD interview and haven't heard anything. I'm contemplating emailing the department so I can prepare.

Also got off the pre-II waitlist! Interview waitlisted mid July. Earliest available interviews are in January. OOS no ties to WV
From the admissions page - it's a traditional interview with two members from their (large) AdCom.

Post-interview waitlist today, interviewed 11/13/2021. OOS, MCAT 517. I felt as though I rambled a bit long and stuttered a bit on my responses during the interview sometimes. Could also be that textbook premed neuroticism, though. Anyone know how much they draw from the waitlist?

Hmm thats hard to answer without giving up more info about myself than im comfortable with. I am very non-trad and I have worked in research for a very long time. My undergrad was poor but I have done much since then to prove myself. Im sorry if thats a lackluster answer.
For those who have been accepted, do you find out if you're accepted from just an email, or do you have to access the decision through the applicant portal (I’m not sure if they mentioned recieving a call regarding decisions)?
