Are prime applicants interviewed at a different timeline than regular MD? For example do Prime applicants receive interview invites later than regular MD?
 
Anybody send any updates/know if updates are accepted pre-II?
Also any II recently?
 
i am on edge waiting for decisions hopefully more come out soon
Same! I wonder if they are going to send emails prior to an acceptance (one could hope) for every decision or if that was just for the first wave?
 
Any November interviewees hear anything back? 🫡

I just got the call, I got an acceptance 🙂 I interviewed 10/18. UCR is my number 1 school, I’m so beyond grateful and happy :’) I have strong IE ties (grew up here, live here currently) and the dean basically gave me point by point why I got the A. This was the most thorough and thoughtful call, I cried.

dang she's doing calls late LATE.
 
II --> January, LM 65, Bay area resident, but alumni (Haider applicant) with inland empire ties and good mission fit with ECs

Ahh. Okay I know folks were wondering if she was still emailing
I think she emails everyone who’s accepted, i have no idea if it’s in order of interviews but based on the other A’s I think it might be in a loose chronological order of interviews. I think she mainly sends emails late morning the day of the call 🙂
 
How many interview dates where there in October? I had my interview 11/05, so anxious to hear back.
 
So the last batch of interviews were in November? If so, hopefully the next wave of calls includes applicants from earlier dates (assuming they’ll be more calls before the new year). The waiting game continues.

Edit: nvm interviews in dec have taken place. Idk what to think anymore lol

Is UCR still giving IIs?
I'm still waiting for a response from them. Completed in early August. I haven't seen any rejections pre-II yet. I just need to know if I should prepare for the next cycle (MCAT and clinical) or if there's still a chance. Hate waiting... 🙁
 
Does anyone know if UCR accepts letters of interest post II?

I’m not sure if it’s stated anywhere specifically but I assume they do since the document upload on the portal has no specific guidelines, I sent a LOI post II so you can too!

Gotcha. based on their email auto-reply it looks like they only accept 1 update letter. Idk if I want to send one now or wait a little longer haha.
