People who have II: what’s the latest date you can schedule interviews?

At least based on my experience the past two cycles, they provide a date for you.

As someone above mentioned, they provide a date for you. You can reschedule but its based on availability.

What is the earliest date available for the interview, if you don't mind sharing. Thank you.

 

[fintomdcc]

What is the earliest date available for the interview, if you don't mind sharing. Thank you.

I didn't get to pick a day. They send you an email with a date and you have to accept it or ask for a different date. Nov. 3 was the date.

Thank you for the response.

 

[Julatteluver]

Hold complete on 7/29 🥹 I interviewed with GW last time I applied so this hold stings

 

[luckyMD11]

anyone go from hold to II yet?

 

[boomertexas]

On hold, complete 8/9

 

[happysunshine21]

For those that have interviewed, what time did interview day begin? The only information in the email was that interviews take place between 12-3 PM EST but surely there is a welcome presentation and all of that, right? Thank you!

Did they put you on hold last time before II ?

 

[Julatteluver]

Did they put you on hold last time before II ?

No I was not on hold. Good news is that many people who were on hold also received II later on and got accepted while I stayed in the waitlist pool

 

[taguylla2]

For those who interviewed already, how long was your interview? Thanks!

 

[jyhassius]

just submitted my secondary! hopefully i'm not too late to the party!

So I am interviewing this week and there is no presentation. They sent me a time for my Thursday interview yesterday (Monday) with an EST time and zoom link. There are videos to watch online if you choose (links in the GW admissions portal) and I went to an event on campus that is optional. I am assuming they will have a few through the app cycle but don't quote me on that.

 

[lachicamexicana]

Did anyone else notice their portal change before getting an interview invite?

 

[YOLOman]

Put on Hold (don't know when) (complete 8/3)

Do they put mostly everyone on hold ?

like said above- my interview was under 30 mins, scheduled between those hours

 

[fintomdcc]

Yea, it said something along the lines of I have been selected for an interview and would receive an email soon.

How was your experience going to the in person optional event? I am debating going but I live far.

Yes mine said something like I was going to be invited to interview soon and there was nothing else to do on my part. It was a full week before I got the email with interview date

 

[ramenlover12]

Were you on hold before getting an interview last year?

I was not put on hold last year

 

[MCATSCRUBS]

I was not put on hold last year

WOW, I am guessing you improved your app this time around but they don't seem to like you as much compared to last cycle to give u an interview this time around. Another reason why the whole application process is crapshoot.

I will caveat this by saying I live about a 30 minute metro ride into GW, so for me it was a no-brainer to attend. I thought it was really fun to get to see it all in person. It feels a lot more tangible now. I think seeing so many students, faculty, and special offices/support gave me a good feel for the culture. GW has always been one of my top schools, and this visit really solidified that for me. We got take a tour of the medical school, meet other interviewees, ask so many questions. If it is a top choice, I would go for it. They did say they will do a second look in the spring for accepted applicants also if you'd rather wait.
