Do any schools extend interview invites without having all LOR's? I have done everything except get my LOR's to the schools b/c I'm waiting on my DO letter.
 
LECOM (both Erie and Bradenton) extends interview offers without LORs. You only need the LORs after you have been invited for an interview. The DO letter is not required until after you are accepted. I am not sure about other DO schools.
 
LECOM does, and I believe Touro-CA and NY do if you don't have a physician letter, but do have your other letters.

I know some schools won't even look at your app until the letters are in (AT. Still) but if your stats are high enough, I think the other schools may turn a blind eye, as long as they are eventually in.

Ok thats good to know, I applied to LECOM Bradenton and Touro CA so hopefully I get some interview invites soon. I just hate that everything is depending on the DO...
