I don’t know specifically. Last year they were pretty consistently sending invites out 2-3 weeks before the scheduled interview date. I do know that UMN has been struggling with staffing across the board due to budget cuts, and the prior long-standing Associate Dean of Admissions left the program in July. Unfortunately, I would expect additional delays this year.

Do you think the number of interviews they send out will go down this year in comparison to previous years due to the staffing shortages?

no🥲

How much should we trust the tracker? Apparently two people reported receiving interviews but idk, I haven’t heard anything from the ppl I know and I don’t think anyone here has reported anything. What’re our thoughts?

I saw someone on 9/1 input that they received an II on 9/30 on cycletrack for a school so I choose to take everything with a grain of salt😌

same submission and complete date for me! I think they just got a backlog after the 8/4 and 8/6 secondary batches went out so ours took a bit longer to be marked complete 🙂

+1 IS II. Submitted 8/3, marked complete 8/12. Does anyone know what to expect with asynchronous interviews?

their interview is asynchronous?

I've done asynchronous interviewing for previous jobs (@ Mayo Clinic). For that, I was given a prompt, had a 1 minute timer to prepare my response, and had 2 attempts to record my response. Not the worst, but certainly not my favorite. I'm glad they do a traditional interview as well.

 

[educated_goose]

I got a confirmation of submission of my secondary on Aug 27th so hopefully I hear back soon ◡̈

 

[sillygoose1749]

Got my interview invite yesterday! IS, submitted secondary 8/7 and confirmed 8/12. They do an asynchronous interview and then also one on Zoom. If anyone has already interviewed on here, what kind of questions did they ask?? Very excited to have gotten an interview but also very nervous about it now!

Congrats! For those who have received II, out of curiosity what time of day do they send out the emails?

idk if you can answer but is the plan to interview for all campuses and then place based on where the candidate is a good fit or how are they doing it this year? Last year they were seperate but same day i believe

 

[medstudent2025]

Has anyone that submitted after the 10th get an interview yet?

Has anyone that submitted after the 10th get an interview yet?
