It's just updated in the portal.

Does the pre-II hold message look different from a regular hold?

They are synonymous

 

[calcuttaho]

Has anyone on pre-II hold received an interview yet? or are we all just waiting lol

Never ask a question and then follow it up with an “or”. Everyone will like your post and then you’ll get no information lol

 

[personaaa]

[BiomedEGR777]

yeahs, seems like theyre slowly working through the end of July/beginning of august apps now

 

[premedgal444]

has anyone heard anything? I'm still on complete since end of July

 

[barbiedoc07]

For those that have interviewed so far… was it super short? My interviewer cut it off at 15 minutes because he had no more questions for me😭 he was super nice and our convo was good but now I’m concerned

 

[DeleriousStudent13]

has anyone heard anything? I'm still on complete since end of July

I'm in the same boat. Did they even see our applications?

 

[tinkertots23]

I'm in the same boat. Did they even see our applications?

Just because you are not on hold does not mean they haven't seen your app!

 

[medstudent2025]

I submitted July 28th and haven't heard anything or seen an update in my portal. Is no news good news?

mine actually went a little past 30 minutes with an additional 10 minutes of the interviewer answering my questions

I wouldn’t worry about it though I feel like it definitely depends on the interviewer

 

[Outlandish123]

Got my interview info and trying to figure out if there is anything to be ready for aside from the actual 30-minute interview? Like, is there an introductory zoom describing campus/the school, or any panel-type thing? Or am I just going to hop on a 30-minute only Zoom call for my one-on-one interview, and that's it? If anyone who has already had an interview could answer, I'd greatly appreciate it!

it’s just the 30 minute interview but after my interview I got invited to an in-person visit day that includes a tour and student panel that is apparently only for interviewees so you’ll probably get invited to that too

 

[berry_tart]

Has anyone on pre-interview hold received an interview yet?

I'm wondering this too

 

[Basalganglia4life]

Has anyone on pre-interview hold received an interview yet?

If it has happened, no one here has posted about it

 

[psalm46.5]

For those of you on "hold", how long after submitting your secondary did you get placed on hold?

[medstudent2025]

[Deggroll]

Im so happy this school doesn’t make me sit for 6 hours on zoom prior to the interview

[DougEFreshh]

Do they release Rs in batches? If so does anyone know when the first batch drops?

From the looks of it from previous years, GW is one the schools that actually gives II later in the year to ppl with pre-interview holds unlike UCSD.

 

[greenmountcoffee]

Anyone have thoughts if it's too late to apply here? I know it's post labor day but considering throwing my hat in the ring. Would I just be donating?

[neuroscinerd34]

Mine says the same, a ton of ours do. It could mean they haven't reviewed it, it could mean they have but didn't put us on hold or decide on II status yet, we truly have no idea and won't until we either get the II or the R.

Does anyone know how many ii invites GW sends out? Historically its been more than 1000, but their website says its closer to 700 and MSAR says its about 900. I wonder what it will be this year.
