For anyone who has been interviewed, how long did your interview last?
 
Mine was about 40 minutes, but it was because we had a great conversation. Usually it’s around 30 minutes from what I heard.
From what I have heard it seems the interviews are pretty informal and more of a conversation. Was this your experience as well? Congrats on the acceptance!
 
I visited both before December decision day. I dont have time to go back and see them. To me, Tufts feels like a dental hospital and BU feels more like a dental clinic if that makes sense. Im not sure which vibe I like
I am not accepting my offer of acceptance, Best of Luck to everyone!
Hello when you declined what did the decision status say
 
I got and email to complete the 2 references mid December but I still haven’t interviewed yet or received any dates. Has anyone gotten the email the fill out the 2 references after December and have already gotten an interview date?

Does it normally take this long? I completed the references within days of getting them

did your two references complete the reference form? Since they have to assign you an interviewer it does take a bit, then you have to wait for the interviewer to email you a date when they can conduct the interview. You can always reach out and ask if everything is complete and if they need any additional information from you.

Just got denied after being asked if I was still interested in being considered for a seat. Very weird.
 
What do you mean by denied? Rejection letter?
Yes sorry I meant rejected. They emailed me two weeks ago asking if I was still interested in being considered for a seat in the DMD program. Later on today, I got a rejection email. I was really bummed and looking forward to an interview. Thought the previous email was a positive sign.
 
Hey guys! I sent my [emoji[emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji[emoji[emoji6]][emoji[emoji6]]]] character references in [emoji[emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji[emoji[emoji6]][emoji[emoji6]]]] weeks ago and I have not gotten an email to schedule the interview…does it usually take a bit for them to reach out to you? A little worried 🙁

same i heard from some friends it took them around two and a half weeks to hear back with a date
 
Really? Praying we hear back soon!!!
It’s taken me over a month. I got an invite back in late December and I emailed them asking when I would get my dates in mid January and they told me I would be a part of the feb interview batch.
 
I got the official interview invite on 1/3 and I sent them a follow up email confirming they have everything abt two weeks later and they assigned me with an interviewer. The whole process took about a month but they said I'm in the feb interview batch.

Does anyone have any advice for the interview process? Kind of nervous.
 
Waitlisted today, interviewed on 2/10 any tips or advice? Definitely not giving up!

I also got notified for interview early jan but it took them a while to give me the date. I reached out to Joshua directly and he was very responsive. It helped move along the process quicker and get assigned an interviewer.
 
Anyone that has had a post December interview, how long did it take to hear back after the interview?
 
Anyone else got off the waitlist yet?
Are they still sending out updates?
