I don't think you should email programs if you have not heard from them. I applied to 13 programs last year and received 4 invites. The others all eventually sent me a rejection. If they want to interview you, they will contact you. Just my opinion.
Good job, Marcus! I'm still waiting to hear from 3. Driving me nuts! lol
Has anyone heard from University of MD or Georgetown yet? Congrats on the interviews everyone 🙂
9/10 interviews? niceeee
I've heard from one Kaiser in socal (SD) and have a friend who heard from another in socal (Panorama)
What PGY2 program are you applying for?
Has anyone heard back from Stanford, UCLA, Mass. Gen., or City of Hope?
Has anyone heard from IU for pgy2?
Stanford sent out interviews last Friday the 17th.

nope : / patiently waiting...
Same here!
Would you have to travel far? I'm from south Florida, but I chose to go to school out of state so I'd have to travel a little. I have another interview in Miami so it would be cool to combine, but I'm not sure what my chances are looking like. Obviously I will gladly travel several times if chosen for an interview though.
Still nothing on my end
I would have to travel from Colorado, so yes far, but definitely worth it! I wish programs would all send invites on one day so travel could be more efficiently coordinated!!
Yeah it definitely takes some planning and coordinating rotations. I planned to have my community rotation this time of year because I didn't want to miss clinical rotations...
What made you apply to Miami if you don't mind me asking?
Same! Planned to have community during this time as well. I completed a rotation there and absolutely loved it.
Just saw the question about asking to reschedule an interview.
I know for us we have invited all candidates and our interview slots are filled. We simply would not be able to accommodate such a request. The only time we have ever rescheduled an interview was due to travel issues because of weather (we get a lot of snow here).

Glad I'm not alone; I believe the application deadline was Jan 20th so I wouldn't worry too much about that one right now.
Anyone heard from University of Tennessee Medical Center?
has anyone heard from any chicago programs?
I've heard back from Advocate Lutheran General and no where else. Was just about to ask the same question, which IL programs have people heard from?

Do you happen to know around when they heard back from UIC and Advocate Illinois? Interview invites I'm guessing?
These were all invites...I think our students heard from UIC and Masonic sometime last week. One of my students already has an interview at Northshore University this week.
McGuire VA sent out interview invites last Friday
I have 6 invites and 1 rejection from SoCal sites
I've heard back from 2 in SoCal.... only heard from one Kaiser though. Hoping those responses will start coming in any day now?
I keep hearing different things from different people - is Feb 1 pretty much the cut off date for when interviews go out? Do most programs send rejections or just never contact you? And does it seem to anyone else that it's primarily the larger programs that have gotten back to people (every one I'm waiting on for example is a smaller program)?
I haven't noticed any rhyme or reason with any of it, to be honest. And I really hope that Feb 1 will be the latest.
Wouldn't it be really nice if there was, for example, a reserved 5 day block that programs contacted all the applicants with interview date options or rejections? That would make travel planning so much more feasible.
Heard back from all my Midwest programs except 1 in Chicagoland. Heard from 1 Cali program. Crickets on east coast 🙂
Has anyone heard from UNM or VCU Pharmacy Practice yet?
I am waiting on those sites as well. I'm not holding out much hope at this point. You might have already seen this but for those who haven't, I found this helpful- from the VCU website under Introduction 2014-15:
"...In January 2014, a screening team will review each applicant's file and make a recommendation regarding an invitation to the applicant for an interview. If the file is missing any information, the screening team will review the file based on the information available at that date. All applicants should receive notice regarding their application by the last day of January. All interviews for the programs will be completed in the same period (mid-January through late February)..."
I am waiting on UNM as well.
I got an invite to VCU about 2 weeks ago.. Still haven't heard from 3 places though. Anyone get invites to St. Barnabas in NJ, Univ. of Maryland, or Medstar Georgetown? I'm assuming it's a rejection at this point...
Rejection from Stanford today.
