Ive been waiting for around 1.5 months to hear back from the 6 DO schools I applied too. I guess they're just really slow because I haven't heard anything. Any schools that tend to send interview invites earlier/quicker? or where you got interview invites sooner after submitting?
 
I applied to 26 DO schools (verified 7/20) and I've heard back from 10 of them. The other 16 either have been silent or have told me I'm under review.

Rejection (in order)
CUSOM
RVU-UT
RVU-CO
KCUCOM
UIWSOM
MUCOM

Interviews (in order)
ARCOM
WVSOM

I applied to 13 DO schools with responses from only 2 of them thus far in which I was granted an interview. West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine offered me an interview 4 days after I submitted their secondary. My interview was about 4-5 weeks from that point and they accepted me ONE DAY after the interview...25 hours to be exact. I'm a resident of NJ and feel like I got the phone call only a few hours after arriving back home. Awesome school and I genuinely mean that even if I didn't receive an acceptance. If you haven't applied yet, consider adding it to your list! It is still so early in the application process. I can't comment on the time line of any other schools but all I can advise is to be patient. The application process is a giant waiting game that makes all of us crazy. Adcoms go through thousands of applications so just give it some time.

I got an interview invite from WVSOM (back in early August) about 36 hours after I submitted their secondary application. They accepted me about a week later. I was complete at all the other DO schools I applied to (9) by late June-mid July and I haven't heard anything else from anyone. We just have to be patient! It's still really early.
