Does anyone know how much longer UPenn will be inviting people for interviews? Has anyone gotten a recent interview invite? I have been complete since October and no word...
 
They interview into Feb so there's still hope. I just got an invite for an interview two weeks and was able to schedule it for this week...

I called about two weeks ago and she said invites will be sent until the end of next week... so that means the last day of invites is TODAY! 🙁
I hope she was wrong, but i dont think we should get our hopes up...
 
I called today and the woman said that they were finished sending invites... I hope she was wrong but I doubt it.. I'm pissed 😡

oh well, just one less place to go and spend money that i don't have. everybody talks it up so much that i kinda wanted to check it out, but that's life.
 
I understand Friday is the very last day for interviews at UPenn.

To later than Friday? I tried to postpone but the only option left was Friday. Are you sure they let you postpone? They told me Friday was the last day of interviews.

I thought it was next Friday actually, but since I'm in clinics I guess I'm really not sure. To those of you who haven't heard yet: sorry, it's not gonna happen.

Edit: Actually, the last day is Friday the 4th. I confirmed it today. If you haven't heard anything yet, you're not going to. Sometimes they do interview singles or small groups of people past this date, but that's only because of earlier schedule conflicts.

Hi everyone- Today I called the admissions office and the woman I spoke with said they would be sending out interview invites until mid-March. I'm not sure why they are telling people different things. Does anyone know for sure if the last interview was feb 4th? Thanks.

This might seem like a really silly question, but are you sure you called U. Penn and not Penn state? I've been in contact with one of the deans and U. Penn had its first medical school selection meeting this past Saturday. I would highly doubt that they're going to interview until mid-March (especially since decisions should be rendered by early March).

Hmm....
 
When I called Penn a few weeks ago, the woman said their final interview day was Feb 4. When the week before came and went, I knew I was rejected. I assume they're just saying they're interviewing until mid-March to not give final decisions over the phone (i.e., we're done interviewing, so since you didn't receive one, you're rejected). C'est la vie.
 
I just called. I got a 'our official interview season is over, but all the applications are in review by the admissions comittee'. I asked if this meant I might get an interview, and no dice. I agree, I think they just want to wait and tell everyone either up or down on the same day in March.
