Late Interviews
Started by GlobetrotterDR
i think usually they interview through march, but if you interview that late you'll basically be interviewing for waitlist spots
Spazz, how do you know this for sure?
It depends on the school. You could always ask how full their class is . . . that might give you a better idea.
It seems like most schools would be pretty full by late March because the majority of schools have early March deadlines (a couple have April deadlines). You have to think, if you were a medical school, wouldn't you want to have a full class before the application deadline?
Good Luck
From my experience at Touro-NV, and all the touro's really, they said up until a certain date, they're allowed to accept all the applicants in the interview pool of that date. That changes after the new year, when they have to ration spots (let's say before, they could admit 40/40 applicants that interview, but later in the cycle, they are allowed to only accept 20/40, and it gets lower and lower per interview as applicants accept). That's my understanding on one school. Some schools don't interview till late, so they have a later time to accept more students, or not use this example at all. Just from my experience though. That's why everyone suggests to apply early. Some schools begin interviewing in August...
