Is everyone sending emails to express interest in programs? I didn’t get interviews for some of the programs I applied for and didn’t know if there is anything I should do.

I personally haven’t and have experienced the same, but I find that a lot of the emails that are available to contact them are generic emails not sure who’s on the other side reading them.
 
for those who got the zoom interview for Tennessee did anyone ask when they would let us know if we get the in person one or not?

Did you get an email that your application has been forwarded to perio dep after you have completed the supplemental?
I'm looking through my emails and yes I did. It's just a confirmation that I completed the app and that it was forwarded to them.

Thank you, did it take long after submitting the supplemental? because I havent got the confirmation that its complete yet..
 
I also got a confirmation and it did come through almost immediately after so might be worth reaching out to them?

Congratulations! Hope it went well - did they send you an invite to interview before the 15th August deadline? Just thinking if I apply again if earlier application is best

I think it went well but they're non match so I won't know until an offer is made. I didn't know the deadline was the 15th but I finished my application like end of July and they gave the interview invite on 8/11. So if the deadline is the 15th then yes it was before the deadline.
 
Waiting on Louisville and A&M, if anyone hears please post!!!
A&M sent out an interview date today for the evening of 9/14 (dinner) with the formal interview the next day, 9/15

The program director at Louisville is still going through apps. She didn't start looking at them until after the deadline (8/15)
