munmedapplicant Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 I called today as well (IP applicant) and they said that all interview invites will be sent out by the end of this week. If we do not have an invitation by Friday, then we likely will not be getting one. I also asked if any had been sent out today, but the lady on the phone responded by saying "They will be ongoing today and for the next couple of days" so take that as you will. I was a confident applicant, but am worried now that I haven't received an invitation yet. Good luck to you all (hanging onto hope for us!)

munmedapplicant Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I haven't heard anything... Can someone post an update? The likelihood of receiving an invite at this point is probably pretty slim, but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimD Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I thought someone said that they're sending invites until the end of this week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munmedapplicant Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Yes, I phoned and that is what they told me too... However, its a little strange that no one has posted saying they received an invite this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PulsusParadoxus Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I wouldn't read too much into the lack of chatter on here. These forums (while still a great resource) are far less active than they used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimD Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Did they say when they will be releasing invites until? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nontradmunmed Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 someone posted on Friday, I think, saying that if you haven't heard by this friday that its lights out! fingers crossed.... Did they say when they will be releasing invites until? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUNmed2015 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I spoke to them today and they said if you don't hear by the end of tomorrow your chances are "pretty slim". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimD Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I spoke to them today and they said if you don't hear by the end of tomorrow your chances are "pretty slim". So I guess tomorrow is the last day, and the majority of invites have been sent out already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUNmed2015 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Sounds that way. They said they will be sending them out all week, but after tomorrow chances are slim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimD Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Sounds that way. They said they will be sending them out all week, but after tomorrow chances are slim. I wonder if they'll actually be sending out invites tomorrow, or if they'll just be reviewing all their invites to make sure they didn't miss any.

vbear Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I get the sense that the invites so far, especially last week, were candidates that exceeded the set GPA and MCAT standard for this year, and that invites today and tomorrow are the candidates who might have been on or below this standard, but whose file is being reviewed to select more candidates for interview. I'm probably wrong, but that's my thought track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUNmed2015 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 I know they've told me they had two lists. One includes applicants who meet the GPA and MCAT requirements and the other is those who might not have met their requirements but on other aspects deserve an interview. Not sure what list they're on at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what list they're on at this point. So since they do not consider exceptions for OOP, I should assume that no more OOP invites are going to be sent, right?

MUNmed2015 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 I can not speak to that as I have no idea what order they send invites out. I just know there's two lists as mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hopefullyDr Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Do you mean by exceptions? I read some where that for OOP, they only invite those who made the cutt-offs for that years and wont interview any OOP who did not make the cut off for GPA and mcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUNmed2015 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 According to what the lady said yesterday, today is the last day. She did say that chances of receiving an interview invite after today would be slim. However... it seems like every time someone calls they say something different! It's painful.
