Thank you!! I heard much of the same from someone else who interviewed same day. I'm super excited about this school. As a super non-trad, the family feel and community service element is huge.The interview day itself was very long, but both the interviews were very friendly and conversational. All of the faculty and medical students were very cordial and I truly felt that they were a family. The facilities were brand new and their curriculum was impressive. Also their whole notion of community-based medicine and serving the underserved in the valley is truly a special thing IMO. You get clinical exposure working in Colonias your MS1. I was also pleasantly surprised to learn that their clinical partnerships were strong all over the valley and the medical school is actually newer than the residencies rather than the other way around. They're doing a lot for a baby medical school and I fell in love
I submitted my secondary app to UTRGV about two weeks ago. I haven't heard back from them about a II . Anyone have to wait this long after submitting a secondary app?
I was complete August 10 at UTRGV. So over a month ago. And still silence for me as well :/ ORM, LIZZM 72-74.
*anIt seems as if some people received and II a couple of days or even a week after submitting secondaries. Makes me anxious haha

Yeah tbh I am really interested in border health and am bilingual in Spanish so I thought I was a good fit for the school and the area. However, it has been quite some time and they've already started filling November interviews. It's hard for me to hold out hope for this one but we all just gotta stay strong and hope for the best. Adcoms have their ways that we will never know, and we just gotta pray they bless us with good news. Other than that there's nothing we can do! Hang tight my friend.
It's nice to know that I'm not the only one experiencing the wait. It could be that the people getting an II submitted their secondary much earlier? It does state that they have interview dates all the way up to Jan. If I'm not mistaken I believe that they only pick a couple hundred people to send secondary invites to. I'm guessing around 300-350 and they maybe interview about 200-250? Who knows?
