Hey guys,

Even though Midwestern told me they would e-mail me when new dates are available, I got in the habit of checking once a day after work. And lo and behold, there are dates available now!

There are like 8 new dates available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays in January for those of you who got invited via their portal for an interview so go ahead and schedule your interview!

Mines Wednesday, January 7th right now 🙂 It is super easy to switch dates so I may do it but I highly doubt it. If I do i'll let y'all know.

Dude! Good Job!! 🙂
I've been ridiculously checking the portal since.. you know...
Same habit today..and after an hour of nap. Bam!! :laugh:
I scheduled on Jan 6 the Tuesday one bc my school(spring09) starts on the 7th. uh!.. you just pmed me..very nice of you. 👍

By the way, do you or any of you have any idea how many students UMW interview? and what's the chance of getting in, if youre a pre/post interviewee? doc toothache's thread doesn't include the UMW data bc they just started their fisrt year students. Can any of you guestimate?

They said they model their interview process after ASDOH since the dean came from there....so they interview a LOT...like 4x the number of spots. I interviewed there last year actually and I remember there were like 450 interviewed for a class of 100 with a waitlist of 100 people.
 
That was pretty weird. I read somewhere that MWU updates the portal before they email so I figured I'd check it and lo and behold I have my first interview. Looks like I'll see you there on the 6th, ldm.
 
I just got my email at 11:16 pm kinda random. I guess they notify locals last lol. Anyone going jan 6th ?
 
both ldm and i are so far it looks like...
 
SDNers with MWU Interview on Jan 6 (T):

deus85, a1pha, shoombol tallah, and myself(ldm0208) 👍 so far..

It seems all the spots on Jan 6 are all out by now, but if you are on the same day with us, feel free to add youself!

I know it's a little bit early to talk about this but if you want to think about staying together, renting a car together, or whatever ways we can save some dollars, I am with you on that thought!

I will be flying there from North Carolina on probably monday night!
 
man you guys have me wanting to switch to jan 6th now...im currently on the 7th 🙁

edit: nevermind...6th is all full heh

I live in Socal so I'll be driving there so we have the car portion covered lol. My car can support 4 passengers. I plan on driving out there Monday morning and get there sometimes in the mid afternoon. Haven't thought about where to stay so keep me updated on what you guys think about it.

I'll be flying in from Seattle sometime monday...our first day of class is monday so if I can I might try to come in a bit later. I'm staying with a friend in Phoenix to save some money and he's giving me a ride tuesday morning but after the interview I'm kind of on my own. If anyone could give me a ride back to his house or work (don't know how close that is yet) I would definitely be willing to pay because it would probably be cheaper and more enjoyable than a cab ride...

I might be able to help you out. hit me up with a PM about where he lives and works. Are you going to the airport afterwards because its on my way home from midwestern.

Hey if you can provide a ride for us, that's very nice!!🙂
I haven't thought about where to stay either, but we still have enough time to think about it, so let's just keep in touch.
Oh btw, I would more likely to stay at the cheapest place I can find around MWU. :meanie:

Yeah, just PM me or something and anyone else who wants to plan something. If we could figure this out and anyone who is flying in can arrange to arrive around the same time I don't mind coming to pick everyone up.
 
Hey guys, sorry I have to abandon you on Jan 6th. I found an opening for this coming Tuesday Oct 7th, and I took it.

Now I am nervous. Too quick, too soon

yeah..I saw that some of Oct 7 and 8 spots were opened yesterday. But I have my both biochem and botany tests on the 8th. So, I didn't reschedule mine. Well, gl and don't forget to let us know how it goes!!

Idm0208 is there anyway you can reschedule your exams, or somehow go on the Oct 7th one and take your exam on the 8th? Having an interview in Oct (pre-dec 1st) and in January (post dec 1st) makes a huge difference. Your chances reduces after Dec 1st.

Hey! first thanks for your advice!
Yes, there is usually a huge diff bw pre and post dec 1st interviews. But I am pretty sure most of the predents who will get in MWU on Dec 1st have their hearts set on some other ds. A lot of waitlisted predents will have a good chance to get in and this is why they interview so many of us.

If some other pre dec 1st spots open, I will def go for it. But the problem is this. It's too easy to reschedule the interview date, so it seems most people reschedule it like only several days before. I live in NC and am really poor. If a spot opens like 5 days before, the flying ticket will be crazy expensive for me, plus no time to prepare to the interview...🙁 Actually, there was a Oct 3 spot opened on Sep 30.

Thanks!

I'll definitely update you on the experience.
And yeah, if I'm not within driving distance to the school... the airline ticket would definitely be sky high for this short notice and I might have to reconsider. But since its my only interview right now I wouldn't have any choices.
 
MWU continually updates available interview dates even if you already picked a date. I rescheduled my interview dates from Jan 6th to Oct 21st.
So if anyone who wanna interview ealier, you'd better check their portal website as often as possible. FYI, MWU plans on sending 75% of class size(around 80) acceptance letters by December.
Good luck to all of future MWU interviewees.

When we reschedule interviews, do we have to cancel our original date to see the other dates available?

Thanks
 
Nope, they still update available dates even if you already picked a date.
