for those with interviews, about how long after submitting secondaries did you receive the interview invite?

I received/Submitted my secondary Sept 24th, and I received an II Oct 5th.

Best of luck to hearing about an II soon!

I know I sound like everyone else on SDN, but Quillen's interviews are intentionally unstructured so that you can just have an honest conversation with your interviewer and be yourself. Be able to answer the big questions: Why medicine? Why Quillen? But only if they come up. The easiest way to derail your interview is to shoehorn an answer to a question that wasn't asked. Which just reinforces my first point: Be genuine and have a conversation with your interviewer. Let them steer the conversation. Have a few questions prepared to ask them. Know what Quillen looks for in a student (this is all over their website) so you can know what makes you a good fit (assuming you are a good fit). People at this school really seem to love their community, too, so think about whether you'd be happy in Johnson City and why or why not. Be prepared to talk about this, too, if your interviewer brings it up.

Good luck!

Do we know if students who are on active hold can possibly get news today too? I was put on active hold before Oct 15 and am not clear how Quillen's process works for getting accepted/rejected after being on hold.

I think that those who are on the hold list can be accepted at any point, so there is a possibility of hearing today.

Just received email to submit secondary application this morning. OOS student with primary application submitted end of June. Thoughts on whether it is too late in the cycle to submit secondary for Quillen? Thanks in advance!

If they just emailed you to submit the secondary, then they are currently considering you. So I’d say it’s not too late.

If I interviewed on October 25, when should I expect to hear back? Not to be so neurotic, I just want to be mentally prepared...
 
Good luck to those expecting some news today!

at this point, are we still most likely to get put on active hold, or will there be more post-interview acceptance decisions?

Mr. Doug Taylor told us when we interviewed that this early in the cycle, the vast majority of interviewees are either put on active hold or rejected.
