I'm going to ask this again now that people are fairly active on the thread (sorry for doubling up) - did anyone apply to NYU Langone (Rusk Rehab)? I haven't seen it come up yet and do not even see it on last year's final list. Their notification deadline isn't until 12/15 and they had a slightly later application deadline (11/09), but still curious.

Taking the advice of the person who posted above, I looked at last year's thread and they were correct. Langone invites were reported by people, but not listed.

Two folks indicated getting an interview invite through a personal email on 12/6/17 (1 for Adult Track and 1 for Pediatric). It's also reassuring because last year's dates were 12/18/17-1/25/18 and appeared flexible (Langone didn't specify their interview dates in their brochure).

For people who got invitations from Samaritan, did anyone get confirmation for their interview dates?

Anyone know the best way to dress for the open house the day before on 1/3?

Congrats! Did your invite specify your track?
 
Having gotten more rejections than I’d even like to admit, and silence from my top site today (Samaritan), I’ve definitely been struggling to stay positive and keep perspective. Not sure if anyone else is in this boat or not, but if you are you’re welcome to participate in this calendar with me...my kids and I do something like this every year and I’m hoping it’ll help me keep a clear mind and positive attitude

Thank you! I did spend an inordinate amount of time perusing that thread for the past little while. I further found that Boston Children's seemed to send rejections as they went along, with invites (also staggered) to follow - that was a question in my mind. I also saw that UCLA Semel popped back up around this time even though it made some early invitations. This upcoming week seems to be an important one but I saw multiple invitations on those last days of 12/14-12/15, which is also reassuring. Things may not align with last year but it's still nice to know there is always a chance until the notification actually comes through.

I love this so much! This is such an awesome way to spread positive vibes around. I'm going to take a page from your book and try this too - thanks for this idea!:happy:😍
 
Radio silence from St Luke’s here but I know that they sent out invites/ have interview dates scheduled for next week. Is it time to fully accept that this is a rejection? Or hold out hope that they will do a second waive of dates/invites?

This is amazing, thank you so much! I’m definitely in the same boat and it is very hard to not take it personally or believe it’s a reflection of your worth. It helps to know that I’m not alone in this. We are all competent and strong, no matter what happens in this process! Whatever doesn’t kill us will make us stronger, and we will all end up where we are supposed to be.

Nice! And I just recently posted something about how Semel popped back up around this time last year, in spite of early invites.

Well I guess I'm out of the running for that one. 🙁

I doubt it makes a difference, but you won't be docked for responding. I can't imagine saying much more than thanking them for the update and that you're looking forward to hearing from them.
