[C3H6O3]

I interviewed back in October and I think it's been there since. I dont know if it's an indication of anything. I think we might be grasping at straws but I've been doing that since December, lol.

The deposit tab has been there all along but the ability to be able to actually make a payment is new. I'm with you though, grasping at straws. Haha

I have an interview scheduled, but have not completed it, and have access to the payment tab as well. Hope this helps.

Do you mind sharing your stat?

 

[purposedriven16]

When i looked today my status was changed to secondary review complete- remain under consideration for interview. Not sure what to think.

 

[C3H6O3]

For those who have interviewed, have you gotten a letter in the mail?

What kind of letter? The thank you letter?

That's the one. I'm guessing everyone gets one. Just wanted to make sure. I think I'm beginning to lose a bit of my sanity. Haha

When did you interview again? And don't worry I feel your pain!

I interviewed in December, and yes I've received the letter. This wait is driving me insane too!

Are there anymore II available

There should be plenty since they interview till March 31st. Last year, I received my II a month before my interview date. With that said, has any reapplicants received an interview invite since sending school fall updates?

 

[Aubrey Graham]

Does uab read ps and LOR before sending out invites?

Re-applicant and I've heard nothing so far. The wait is killing me. DO schools are helping a bit, but UAB is by far my #1 choice.

I received an email confirming my update was received but that's it.

What sort of extracurricular activities do you have?
On what date are you being interviewed?

 

[msaggio]

I sent my update a month ago but received no such email. When/how did you send yours?

I sent an email and it took just over 2 weeks to get a response.

You include like a screenshot of your grades?

 

[C3H6O3]

I emailed an update two weeks ago. I downloaded an unofficial transcript from my university and made it into a pdf file and attached it to my email. Also, be sure to include your AMCAS ID# in your email. I received notification that my update was received a week later. Hope that helps!

Mines was actually research related. Did you include your amcas id?

Hey, does anyone know when UAB typically offers merit aid?

 

[spaingirl17]

Any recent acceptances? Or does anyone know when the committee might be meeting next?

Nothing here. I was hoping that they met last week and would hear something early this week. Doesn't seem like that is the case.

 

[doctobe123]

A friend got an interview invite yesterday for 2/18 or 2/25.

Is your friend a reapplicant?

 

[Traygus]

Friend also got an interview invite this past week. He is a reapp. Do not know his stats

 

[doctobe123]

Is your friend a reapplicant?

Yeah! Looks like reapp invites are rolling out now

 

[UAMD2B]

Yep received II as reapp today for 2/25.

 

[groodles]

Haven't visited this thread in a while, but if it helps any out of state folks with an idea of timeline - OOS, secondary complete early October, II late January for February 11 interview.

 

[hiiiworld]

bump. I was wondering this same thing

Any chances of an interview invite this late? I'm an OOS applicant.

Definitely, they interview through March

 

[patdfobtbss]

so I interviewed on 10/1 and my status is still "Campus Choices Received".... Anyone else in a similar situation?

 

[MD_enthusiast]

Yuppp

 

[HalfwaytoMD]

I interviewed 12/3 and still at campus choices received. Looking at last year's thread, it looks like they released some decisions the week of valentine's day, so heres hoping!

I am in the same situation. The waiting is killing me

 

[jgphillips]

Re-applicant interview invite just now.

 

[Nontrad129]

Same here @patdfobtbss, I interview 10/22 and my status is the same "Campus Choices Received"

 

[Traygus]

So I take it no acceptances are going out today. Should we hold out for Monday or strap ourselves in for at least another week?

I really thought there would be some acceptances today but with interview invites going out, it doesn't seem likely.

I'm still hoping for today... It's only 10 am!

Has anyone from December interviews heard at all? Is this whole process behind or will they send out a huge batch after reviewing that many interview dates?

Hey there, I was accepted via email two weeks after my early December interview but am still waiting on a campus assignment and thus haven't been mailed the official acceptance letter (which requires campus assignment to be included). Overall my experience with UAB has been the slowest and latest of any other school I have dealt with. I wouldn't look much into it!

 

[platanus]

Just got II !!!
I was just helplessly waiting for pre-II rejection. Thank god.

 

[ruralphysician2016]

Just got II for 2-18!!!

OOS or IS? I am OOS and just received the 'under consideration' status change. I like this school's devotion to rural medicine and would like the opportunity to check it out.
