Hey sorry about the late reply. They have not sent out all of them yet. they tend to send the last of them in mid october

That's okay! Thank you for the reply! I am getting anxious as I have not heard back from any schools yet so I'll do my best to stay patient.

I just got an interview invite this morning. Most interview dates are the first week of November (which is my baby's due date so I will be waiting until a later November or December interview. Good luck everyone.

Check out this excel sheet. It was posted on here somewhere but I'm not sure what year the data are from. But it has pretty much every metric you'd ever need.

Thanks for the heads up, just rescheduled my interview to December 6th!

 

[BasicG]

Lol well I just got an email from Midwestern saying they revoked my interview because I rescheduled it to post December

 

[DK (Dentist Kong)]

So I haven't done an MMI interview before... is it like one question per interviewer or is it like a mini interview session? I'm guessing more like the latter

What? Does that mean no interview for you?

How odd....

It isn't MMI. At my interview day we all thought it was MMI, but right away they told us they had stopped doing that format. It was actually one 30 minute interview (or 20 minutes, I can't remember) with 2 faculty and 1 student.

Yup, hopefully my experience will prevent someone else from having their interview revoked! It sucks, but thankfully I have plenty of other interviews to fall back on

Maybe they took it as you saying that you expected acceptances from other schools on December 3rd, so they weren't a priority? Like you were not going to spend the money to interview there unless you don't get other offers?

It's still pretty strange....and I'm glad you have other interviews! Good luck to you

 

[egglover123]

i haven't heard anything at all not even a continued review email and my application has been complete since early August. Should I email them? Is this a concern? Or do they not send continued review emails?

dont worry about it. I got my email on December 8 for a January interview. that was my first time hearing from them since i applied in late June. You shouldn't worry about it. Best of luck.

Thank you for your reassuring words! I have only heard back from 1/9 schools that I have applied to.. it is getting quite discouraging but I know with patience great things come! THANK YOU

Where are you interviewing and what are your stats (if you don't mind sharing them)?

I'm still anxiously waiting to hear back from here too!!

Hope your one interview went or goes well for you

So apparently they no longer have MMI here! Can anyone who's interviewed here for this current application cycle confirm? I heard with the new dean, the interview format has also changed to a a panel, traditional type interview, basically identical to how the interviews at MWU-AZ are. The new dean at MWU-IL apparently was previously the dean of MWU-AZ so a lot of the changes at MWU-IL are making it more like the MWU-AZ campus

I can confirm that it's not MMI. It's 2 faculty, 1 student, and you in the room for one 20 or 30 min interview. It was closed file. They had access to personal statement and other info, but not grades or scores.

Haha I saw the email yesterday and it did have an option for october 25th!! I actually considered it but tickets were double than what they normally would be. Thank you though!!

Interview #3! Arkansas resident, a reapplicant this cycle. My only date available to schedule was December 11th. Excited to see the school!

 

[MacAttack66]

I received an interview invite for here and I'm super excited about it!!

Can anyone who has interviewed here post their experience and give some insight into what to expect that day?

Thanks!

 

[The Piano Guy]

The interview is NOT MMI. It is a traditional interview with 2 faculty members and a student. One of the 2 people interviewing us was actually with us earlier in the day giving short presentations and whatnot. The students in the interview panel will sit with you during lunch to answer any questions prior to the actual interview.

 

[MacAttack66]

Anyone know what their November interview dates are for MWU-IL? Asking for a friend, I didn't apply here. Thanks!

I had the choice of two different dates and chose December 13th (I think the other date was one week earlier on the 6th, but can't be sure now....I do know it was the week prior to when I chose to interview). But there were no pre-December dates offered.

Does anyone know if accepted when classes start if its in August or September or early summer? I just realized I have not taken anatomy which might have to be taken in winter if they start during spring.

Also anyone else interviewing on November 15th?

 

[6schlitzes]

Received an interview today for MWU-IL, scheduled Dec 13, only date they had available.

 

[Faefly]

Did any of you encounter this? I already paid the fee along with the secondary app in late October and today I checked the mail, I have this mail from them. At first, I thought it was a rejection since it is sent on paper, but then it turned out it was a reminder to pay the fee, but I already did and got a confirmation as well.

They already sent me the dean welcome email like 5 days ago. So, I don't know, should I contact them? The mail is like 10 days ago, but I just checked my mail today lol.

I think they are done with pre dec. 3, but have started scheduling post dec. 3 interviews.

Your portal on their website should change and they send an email, eventually you should get a hard copy of an acceptance letter in the mail too

I don't think they do phone call but I could be wrong, I got accepted post December and what I described is how they communicated our acceptances

 

[BWOOD05]

Anyone know if they notify at midnight?

 

[randomdentist1096]

how many seats do they fill on dec 3? oos chances?
