Hello everyone! As fellowship interview season ramps up I wanted to post where we all get interviews/what we think of programs so we can keep track.

So far I have received one interview to Arrowhead Regional. Share your experience!
 
congrats on the interview offer!

Can anyone comment on how COVID is affecting the fellowship application/interview process?

I received an interview from Arrowhead and SUNY Upstate so far! Both state a zoom format. Seems like more invites will come next week. Fingers crossed.
 
Today I heard back from Duke, EVMS, Icahn Sinai, Loyola Chicago, Penn State, U Miami, UVA. Everyone seems to be doing virtual interviews.
 
Interviews from Maimonides, University of Rochester, University of New Mexico, SUNY upstate. Waitlisted at OHSU and UMass. All Zoom interviews.
 
Cornell got back to me on Friday (rejection), but they did extend an invite to one of my co-residents who is also applying MFM. Maimonides invited me on 4/30. But no other NYC programs.
 
I’ve heard from a few NYC/Boston programs so far, but not all. Interviews at Columbia, BIDMC, Irvine, UW, and Stanford. Rejection last Friday from Cornell. Congrats everyone so far! It will be weird not meeting people in person on the interview trail; I liked that part of residency interviews.
 
Do you all think that programs are strictly sticking to the 18th notification day or will continue to roll out interviews?
 
I honestly don't know! I got only one invite (UNM) and 2 waitlists today. The remainder of my invites I got over the last two weeks. So I guess every program is doing their own thing?

Congrats!!!!
 
I only heard from Albama

Are people getting invites to University of Miami outside of the match? I don't recall ever seeing this program on ERAS (I just checked it is not there). I am genuinely curious.
I think with Miami they stopped accepted applications on May 1 and made it unavailable in eras but it you unclick "accepting application" Miami should pop up

Got it. I do remember when I was a pgy-1 someone in our program was trying to apply outside of the match to their MFM fellowship so I was wondering if that is still a thing. I know University of Michigan was initially on ERAS as well, but withdrew early. I am curious what they did with those who applied. Any one get invites today or is it too early in the day?

Yeah I think around that time they took people outside of the match because they were a new program.

I've heard from Brown and UNC
 
53 because I am coming from a community program and that's what I could afford. My co-resident applied to every program (with the exception of those that say we do not provide visas) because he needs a visa.
 
How many programs does everyone plan on interviewing? Also when can we expect the second wave of interviews? May 31st is what I;ve read but thats a Sunday... June 1st?

I got an invite from Rochester way early. Like May 12? I did not hear from the other programs you mentioned.
