Have any IS applicants who applied after 8/25 received an II yet? After looking at last year's UWSMPH thread, I saw IS applicants who submitted on the 25th receiving IIs in September, and those who submitted around 9/1 receiving IIs in November. I submitted on 8/26 so I'm hoping to hear something in October if the timeline holds up.

Loved the vibe of the II at wisconsin. Honestly felt super comfortable and no stress at all. Good luck to everyone who has an II and those who are waiting as well

IS submitted 8/25 and also have heard nothing. I am wondering the same thing! Hoping for an II this month and wishing you the best of luck too!

Guess I’m not sure what you guys mean, because all IS students submit 8/25 or later. I submitted 9/2 and already interviewed. They mentioned that when you interview has no impact on admissions as they admit 20% waves of their class incrementally throughout the cycle.

Edit: Ah, I see you meant like actually after 8/25. Yes, I submitted the week after.

Did they say in the post interview/closing if they accept top 20% of interview cohort too? I wasn't sure if I heard him correctly.

SO happy to have received an OOS II a couple of weeks ago! Did anyone schedule their interview date for early Nov but not have a time yet? Tweaking out bc I have to request time off work :0
 
I remember 20% as well from each interview cohort. Decision to come out dec 16 they said
So this is a little bit of a misunderstanding if what I remember from the interview is correct. From each interview cohort comes approximately 20% of each admitted class, meaning there are 5 interview cohorts. That does not mean that it is a 20% chance of acceptance from each cohort. That depends more on what section you are applying to, whether it be WARM, MD, or MSTP, they are all pooled into their own categories that will all ultimately have their own rate. Such as in-state post-II A rate, which is closer to 50% according to MSAR. I also seem to remember a range of dates, unless that has changed since the first interview date. They mentioned anywhere from 4-8 weeks so from ~Nov 3 to mid Dec. Please correct me if I am wrong or update me on changes as that would be greatly appreciated.

Yes the 20% of each cohort for the admitted class is correct not 20% chance. As far as the date, i wrote in my notes dec 16th i dont know why when im looking back on it. I may be mistaken so dont quote me on it. I remember them saying most of the seats will be in state students tho like majority of the class will be in state
 
+1 OOS pre-ii rejection, application submitted & complete 8/16

good luck to everybody else still in the cycle!! this seems like a wonderful school, wishing y’all the best

Does Wisconsin usually send so many rejections before all of the interviews are out? They confuse me much more than the other schools I applied to.
 
Looking into past years threads, the first batch (October-ish interview dates) should hear back anytime from yesterday, to the latest on the 14th/21st. And I think second batch is same time but December. So yeah what Premedhopefull2256 said to a T.
Replying to this; I think they call over a series of days so if u are not the first call, don’t worry too much!
 
On MSAR they listed Nov 17th as the earliest Acceptance notice. I think this holds up to past years, but they were sent earlier last year. It could also be that they call earlier, and update portals on Nov 17th.
