OOS WL, interviewed 2/20

Members don't see this ad.
 
Anyone know when they start having WL movement? I think I recall in the interview they said a WL is not a bad sign at all as there’s a lot of movement

Are the interview run every 2 weeks? Just curious as I submitted II last week and am awaiting an interview hopefully.

Any advice for those who are awaiting an interview after submitting Secondaries recently?

Are we still in the hunt?

Realistically you're looking at applying next cycle. Miracles do happen though!

It’s one interview and they consider your preferences when offering you admission to one location vs another!
 
Okay, thanks.

Just too late would you say now? I submitted Secondary last week
Yeah, I think the consensus is get them in by Thanksgiving. Of course some people might get lucky still submitting later but most DO schools are rolling admissions so it gets harder the later you submit.

My own personal anecdote as a person not privileged financially I submitted in batches based on what I could afford in Oct and Nov and during my cycle and was interviewed Dec-March, even received invites up through May! So there's always a chance that you might get a late interview but it's still wise to prepare for applying earlier this next cycle.

Hi everyone,

I can't seem to find it on their website, but is it possible for me to request a campus switch post acceptance? I was accepted to the Florida campus, but not being able to qualify for federal loans and eventually federal loan repayment programs is kind of making me nervous.

I believe I saw somewhere that you can request a change but there’s no guarantee. It’s worth an email since I changed my preference for the same reason prior to getting the A

Looking at the previous year thread, a lot of WL movement starts happening beginning of May which makes sense since that's when final decisions need to be made by A students.

Yes, I emailed them back in November when i was put on the WL they said that WL movement was unpredictable but usually picked up after May 1st.

That feels like such a long way away 😭 but fair enough
 
patiently waits for an II.

Complete end of November
 
So is it safe to assume that we are only interviewing for WL up to this point?
 
For anyone who recently got an interview invite, do you know what dates/date ranges were available? I'm just curious.
 
Do they tell you how high on the WL you are? Or is it not worth asking?
 
OOS A received today!! 🥹
Interviewed 3/5
