About 2 months for me. I was complete end of August.

 

[ZyzzBro]

Did anyone get any scholarship offers after their interview?

 

[MidnightSunshine]

II today 9pm!

 

[Pyrogen15]

II earlier today! My account didn’t show the participant agreement though. Anyone else have issues with that? I’m crazy excited though!

Edit: How long after submitting the Kira part are you all scheduling out interviews at this point?

Were you OOS or IS? And, Good luck and perhaps congrats. I'm assuming you have an acceptance if you turned down the interview!

[WannabeBoneWizard]

What is the survey thing? I was put on hold a couple of months ago and I am curious

 

[Pyrogen15]

Did the Kira portion of the interview yesterday and got the email to schedule the zoom portion today. Soonest date was early February.

 

[betaorbiter]

How long did ya’ll wait to take the Kira assessment after receiving the email?

I took it on the 6th day, but make sure you take it within 7 days since that's what they required in the invite email.

 

[beanfrog]

Got an II on 11/28 too! But I'll be declining. IS complete 9/21

 

[GetmeacceptedAnon]

DMU sent out an email with a survey that asked you to indicate whether you were still interested in your application being considered. You could also indicate you wanted your application removed from consideration. Also, think you could include an update if you wanted.

I never got this. Should I email them about this ?

 

[perdidomd]

I did not realize that Kira needed to be complete within 7 days. I work full time and planned to use my time off over a thanksgiving to prep and now it has been more than 7 days. Do you think I missed out?

Someone else in this thread mentioned that they did their Kira assessment on the 8th day and everything was fine. Doing it beyond a week probably isn't ideal but I'd still complete it and see where it goes.

Do we have to complete Kira? Is this only after you earn an II? or do we complete Kira after submitting the secondary app?

The Kira is the actual interview portion itself. Basically, an asynchronous interview format.

Do we complete this after receiving an II? or are all candidates supposed to do this after submitting the secondary?

You do it after getting the II, followed by a group session.

it is part of the interview process

Kira is the interview

 

[TiramisuLover99]

I never got this. Should I email them about this ?

Idk who they send it out to. Is it something that goes out to all applicants or is it a selection thing?

 

[daechwita]

alternate list today post-II, does anyone know if it moves up at all?

 

[daechwita]

When did you interview?

group interview was 11/11!

 

[blackberries]

group interview was 11/11!

Did they text or email you? I also had a group interview on 11/11 but I haven't heard anything.

 

[DOcSto]

Most of my friends got in off the alternate list. The class is 220 people. Y’all still have plenty of time to see it move past the deposit deadlines and as more MD decisions are made at the beginning of the year/early spring.

 

[AskingQuestionsMed]

Hey guys,

My group interview is coming up soon. Does it only last 1 hour? The day I picked I did not realize I have other commitments shortly after. How long did it last for you guys?

[ZyzzBro]

Does anyone know how DMU accommodates for housing on away rotations?

 

[dotachilles]

Could anyone point me in the direction of tips for the interview pls!

 

[AskingQuestionsMed]

After I submit Kira and get the confirmation from DMU
Do I need to do anything else to get the group info session sign up? Or is it just waiting?

Just waiting!

 

[Pyrogen15]

Does anyone by chance know post II acceptance rates for OOS?

 

[Ksrgd12]

Has anyone heard back post-II? I interviewed on 11/17.

Had the group session on 11/11 and we were told that decisions take 3-4 weeks to get out. This Friday will be 4 weeks so...
