+1 OOS A! Interview Recieved 8/20 Interview Date 9/19
Called by one of my interviewers yesterday, update on portal today.
 
no 🙁 Interviewed mid-september. The wait is terrible.
 
Hi all! Congrats on any IIs and acceptances so far and sending good vibes to those struggling with the wait. I’m a current MS1 and I know it sucks right now, but when they sent out the info about the current interview season to us, I was shocked because I couldn’t believe it had already been that long since my interview. I promise that once time stops dragging, it will fly by and everything will be worth it! (Even if it maybe takes longer than you hoped to get there). Just wanted to offer some hope and encouragement and let you know that I’m happy to answer any questions. Hang in there, potential future Tar Heels! ❤️

Thanks for the kind words! This is my second cycle having interviewed with UNC and last year the process was drawn out so long it became exhausting (ended up being waitlisted, then rejected). Interviewed mid September (compared to early October last year) and at this point I'm just worried that it'll be the same. I wish UNC was more consistent with communication, but I'm happy to stay patient.

I feel you on the communication - it makes all the other stuff so much harder. Fingers crossed for you this cycle! Please let me know if I can offer any help or advice, friend
 
So is anyone else hopefully for more As this week because that's when they were sent out again last year or is that silly of me? Also to put me out of my pain...has anyone who interviewed on 9/25 gotten an As?

Lol I am totally with you in that thinking. My guess is maybe on Wednesday or Thursday but who knows
 
+1 IS II!! 🙂
however dates were all booked out… have to wait until late January :/
 
Has anyone received calls for waitlists/ denials? I interviewed in early October and missed 2 calls from a UNC hospital number today (ugh I was working). Any thoughts? Hopeful it was them. Good luck to everyone!!

I don't think they send out WLs and rejections until April. Everyone will get a status update by December with either an acceptance or saying we are still under consideration. I'm hoping and manifesting that they call more tomorrow but idk. The interviewers are calling so I feel like that makes it pretty random. good luck back at ya!
 
Anyone else interview early September and not hear anything yet?

In the same boat, hopefully they’re just batching us into statistical groups for acceptances at this point. I can’t be dragged on like they did to us last year 😭
 
IS Acceptance call 11/6, Interview on 10/20. Have not seen any email or portal update
 
Just saw a new tab show up on my portal, "Post Interview Survey - MD", did anyone else see it? Interviewed 10/16. no decisions yet.

Yea it showed up after my interview. It’s just a survey unfortunately
 
I’m terrified because I just got invited today for an interview. My interview date is January 15 and after seeing all these acceptances, I’m very worried I’m too late…

This is my first cycle applying. Does anyone have any feedback on interviews/my chances with a later interview?

I really don’t think it’s THAT many acceptances. On admit only I think 13 ppl reported being accepted so I would say based on here + admit + ED applicants, only probably about 20-30% of their class has been accepted.

Ya especially with the increased class size. 230 for 2025 and same for 2026 I believe.
 
Congrats to those of you getting acceptances and interviews! Did anyone who got accepted around 11/7 pay their deposit yet? I got an email for accepted students saying there was a glitch with the payment system and they would email us when it was fixed, but I am getting nervous now that it's been almost two weeks and I haven't received an email saying it was fine to proceed with the deposit payment.

I have not paid my deposit. I tried a week ago and it did not go through. Just waiting on their email for the okay to pay
 
What is the interview format, and are they open file?

Admit says post interview acceptance is 46%, does this look accurate or is it higher/lower?
Click to expand...
id say close but prob a bit higher, admit is a bit more neurotic and prob is skewed towards stronger applicants? on their website they said "Generally, around 7,000 prospective students apply, around 600 are interviewed, and 190 matriculate into our medical school." so thats already at least a 32% acceptance rate needed to hit the class size they want + they want a class size of 230 for this year

though they may have increased the number they are interviewing too
