I thought that it might be at least *somewhat* useful at this point to come up with a list of schools that haven't given out any interviews to date (at least that we know of). And, for those schools, it would be great for people to post if they have any information as to when those schools may potentially start giving out interviews. I don't expect this list to be very long, but I'm sure there are still a few schools out there.

So, I'll start... Nobody has posted an interview invitation from ECU. I don't have an update, though, but I do know that their new class started this week; they're probably busy with that for the time being.
 
Seems that Tufts, Marquette, Temple, and both SUNYs (Buffalo and Stony Brook) have not sent interview invites yet
 
Maryland sent out supplementals/invites early/mid September last year, as I suspect they will do the same this year.

Also, no invites yet from Pitt or Colorado.
 
Louisville and U of Tenn havn't started giving interview invites to OOS yet.
Meharry and Howard haven't sent invites at all but last year Meharry gave their earliest (according to last year's thread) interview invites on August 22nd and 24th so they could potentially start next week.
 
Creighton and Harvard also have not started giving out interviews.
 
A SDNer received an invite yesterday on the **Official Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2013-2014** thread

👍

Someone called Rutgers and they have started giving out interviews as of yesterday.
 
USC has not started giving out interviews. I'm not even sure if they have begun reviewing applications yet.
 
OHSU,

it was the last school out of 7 to send me an email confirmation, so most likely they start reviewing applications later too
 
anyone heard from UPenn?
also i called Columbia to verify my application earlier they told me they haven't sent out the first round yet.

Have you looked at the **Official Interview/Acceptance/Rejection Thread 2013-2014** yet? UPenn started sending invites around 2 weeks ago and have steadily been sending more out, I received one yesterday 🙂woot🙂, and Columbia has started sending invites as well.
 
I just got a Continuing Review email from Buffalo. 🙁
 
i applied to buffalo but didn't get any email from them...is that a bad thing?
 
I just received an " admissions committee is currently reviewing your application" email from Buffalo. Hopefully it means I get an interview soon :xf:
 
I got this email on July 3rd

Its been over a month and you still haven't heard from them? My application should have been completed by July 22nd or so but they just sent me that mail ! I have no idea what's going on.

i got this same email...and still nothing from them yet
 
Why is that a bad thing??

Don't take my word for it, but I'm assuming it's a soft rejection. I received an interview invitation last cycle about a month after the "Ready for Review" email. I never got a "Continuing Review" email. I think I got it this year because my application hasn't really changed from last year. It sucks though, I thought I had a good shot because I was waitlisted last time.
 
so i guess im glad i didn't get one...

I'm OOS and I interviewed at U of TN Aug. 16 along with 2 other OOS
