My primary app was sent out on Aug. 11, '08 and I am still waiting for interview invites from the following schools:

UOP, UCLA, USC, Western, VCU, Tufts, NYU, BU, Maryland

I called UOP and they told me that my app is still being reviewed, and I didn't bother calling other schools for status update. I have a 3.6gpa (3.73 science) with 19DAT. For those who are more familiar with the application process, what should I expect in the upcoming weeks? or months? I feel like I have no choice but to patiently wait for their calls/emails. I'm starting to get worried as I feel like the seats are probably all filled up by now...
 
Did you apply other places as well?
 
I got rejected from UCSF, UF, Havard, UPENN, Arizona, Michigan, and UCONN. I heard from these schools about 3 months ago and I was expecting more rejections due to successive reject letters I've been receiving. I'm hoping to at least get 3 interviews and get into one school at least..

I was tempted to call Tufts for status update but their website said not to call them for updates so I wanted to consult with you guys to see what I should expect.
 
I don't know about the other schools, but I know UCLA still has interviews that they have yet to invite for, and USC sent me an interview invite just yesterday. I'm pretty sure UoP is full, but might be interviewing for the wait list.
 
Thanks for the precious info, at least I have an idea of whats going on with those schools. Good luck with usc!
 
hey i think you should start hearing really soon. i just got invites from tufts and bu this past week but still nothing from nyu. i emailed both schools last week then got invites this week, might be a coincidence but its definitely worth a try so id suggest doing that. good luck, hope you hear back soon.
