Has anyone received an interview invite from U Penn that's not EDP? Has anyone heard from UVA who is not a state resident or EDP applicant?

I'm a non-VA resident and received an interview invite from them about a week and a half ago.
 
I'm out of state for UVA and had my interview about ten days ago.
 
out of state on uva and not edp for upenn and got interviews at both-
 
Penn's first interview day is Oct 6th and something like 100 invites (not EDP) have already been sent for the first couple dates. More to come obviously...
 
i'm not EDP and i got an interview at Penn.

31Q and 3.91 GPA

i hope my mediocre/low MCAT helps people feel they have a chance at great schools! i also got interviews at Columbia and Georgetown!

AMEN to that! I also got an interview at UPenn (nonED)

29Q, 3.8 GPA, tons of extracurricular/volunteer/research experience.

Now, I'm a very realistic person - I'm sure my chances are of actually getting accepted may not be as high as someone with way above average MCAT score/GPA. Nevertheless, I've gotten this far, and this just goes to show that the numbers really aren't everything AT ALL. I hope others with similar stats can also see this and feel that they have just as good of a chance of getting interviews at great schools as the next person. 🙂
 
I got an interview invite from UVA (I'm out of state) and my stats are not "amazing" by any means...32S and 3.81 GPA.
 
i got an int to penn (with top stats)
