Actually since applicants have to submit their rank list on Feb 19 I doubt there will be interviews on that day.
So interviews go into Feb? For some reason I thought it was until Jan 31, but maybe that's just the last day to pre match
Prematches end Jan 31 and last interview date varies by school but before Feb 19
Oh, I see thank you!
No rank list for OOS, still final interview date for OOS also before Feb 19?
@r2med the TMDSAS schools have never extended the interview season for OOS applicants. You all had the same deadline for your primaries, secondaries, etc. as part of using the TMDSAS application, so the schools have had ample time to evaluate you.
So I’m guessing that means if you don’t get a II by that date it’s an auto-R?
Yes, if you have had no TMDSAS interviews by Feb 19 you can consider yourself done for the year. AMCAS and AACOMAS schools might carry on interviews longer.
I was wondering the same thing. If we pre-matched into McGovern when is the earliest we can sign up for housing?
I put myself on the waitlist the day it opened. You can apply for housing if you've been admitted and if you're having trouble you can call the leasing office.
Perfect, thanks for the help!
Don't know how much this helps, but after their Dec 10th wave, I emailed them and asked if they were inviting any more candidates. At that point, the Jan 29th date looked full based on the forums and they confirmed that this was their final date but they were still looking for candidates to interview. If I had to guess, maybe they set aside some backup candidates to invite in the event of cancellations. No idea if they ever sent those out...
Guess there is hope?? I had written this school off long ago haha
Catch me trying not to compulsively check my email now
There are only 2 dates in January - 22nd and 29th. Someone probably needs cancel for someone else to be called in this short span.
I feel like they will, considering that the last wave they sent was Dec 16th. Who knows though, maybe not. The waiting is awful lmao
Are you 100 percent sure, because I interviewed and had an update letter ready, but I read somewhere earlier in this thread that they don't accept updates or Lois.
You can only submit an update after an interview. People who dont receive an interview cant try to impress them further into getting an interview.
When I called, they seemed to only want a letter of intent? Not sure now
Did you interview a while ago? If so, it’s likely your post-interview file has already been reviewed and decided on by the AdCom so they aren’t really interested in an update that won’t affect your match chances anymore.
when you go to your application post interview, you should have something open up for updates which would not have been available before interview. Your updates are done on the application portal.
Sorry, I might be mistaken about McGovern. @premed_97 might be providing more accurate info on how to go about it.
That makes a lot of sense! The only thing is, they didn't ask for my name (and I don't think I gave it) so I am not sure if they had any way of knowing when I interviewed. Would you suggest sending an LOI after match day ( I am OOS so I don't participate in match)?
Just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this?
doesn't seem like they care about their admitted students just yet lol. no facebook groups or dedicated emails
If interview was last week, it sounds very late in the game to claim additional clinical hours since they should have been part of expected hours for the year. It would be hard to not be aware one would spend 500 hours back at the time of application unless the expected hours were elsewhere.
So is it recommended to send LOIs before match day or after if you’re waitlisted ?
There are multiple conditions one should evaluate about an LOI. My conditions are geared for Texas residents
They haven't sent out a wave since Dec 16
On point #1. If this is the only school I interviewed at and did not receive a prematch, does it make sense to send my LOI before or after match day? I'm leaning to after, as I still have a chance to match even without sending a LOI. But if I send my letter and don't match, then I'll have nothing to send post-match day when others will most likely be sending their letters.
You can keep writing additional love letters if you dont match but schools dont know if you are planning to attend some other program unless you write a letter that they are a serious contender.
