When should I hear back?

[Shamrocks26]

Kind of a simple question, but I submitted my area application around mid-August and got all of those "application complete"/"under review" emails around the beginning of September. When do you guys speculate I should be hearing back about interviews?

So far I've received an invite to interview at Creighton Dental School and a rejection from Midwestern U - Arizona. Thanks for the help!

They send out rejection emails for interviews?

Nope it was a mistake, rejection was from MU - Arizona

You gotta wait at least for a month or two months to start hearing from them which sucks but there is no other way. Focus on your school work etc to get yourself distracted

Yeah, I agree, I was just curious about how long it has taken in the past for people that submitted apps. Also, do you think if I do receive interviews around Halloween/early November, they will be scheduled before the December 15th "acceptance date"?

They usually schedule interviews to be a few weeks later but since mostly everything is virtual, you may have them scheduled to be before Dec 15th, so possibly.

I suppose it is possible with many interviews being done over zoom. I'm just hoping to get my opportunity to interview since I feel my being "personable" and a good conversationalist are some of my strongest attributes aside from stats and what-not.

I got an interview invite to MWU-IL on Oct. 29 and the earliest time available was Dec 7.
