don't call me dwight Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Anyone know when they start sending out interview invites? Has anyone received one? Seems they're leaving it to very late considering the first interview weekend is only 3 weeks away. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabz Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Yeah, I'ld like to know too, for out of province apps? Is there somewhere you log in to check, or do you get an email/mail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
degoo_ Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I too worry about the proximity between interview invite and interview day. They didn't specify that it was for OOP, but how can it not be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydes79 Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 I can't tell you when will Toronto start sending interview letters, but I can tell you when did I get my interiview letter. Last year I got mine on March 7 and the interview was on the 26th, so I was only given 19 days notice (mind you I used to live within 1 hour driving from Toronto). The notification came by regular mail. You might already know that, but Toronto doesn't send all the interview letters at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kahone Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Hey all, in past years, the closer you were to TO, the greater the chance of you hearing for the early interview sessions. In theory, GTA and surrounding area people "need" less advance notice ergo they don't get as much as an applicant in the Atlantic region, prairies, and BC...this is a trend more than hardcore policy but that's what I recall from the last 3 years. Grad students, forget it; we typically don't start hearing until late Feb if we get an interview invite. I know of some exceptions but they seem to be just that. best of luck K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of several friends who were received their interviews in March of last year and lived in the GTA and surrounding area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haiku_guy Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Those with graduate degrees can expect to wait longer for letters. Unsurprising since the comittee just recieved the supplimental application on the 5th. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatsupdoc Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I received an interview letter for MD/PhD program last Friday, and I am in TO. They said in the letter that MD interview invites would go out in a couple weeks. Here's to playing the waiting game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustylegs Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Thanks for the info. Is this lab in/near Toronto? Hi all: Yes, the lab is near Toronto (Hamilton, actually). But that information probably won't help much as I do not know where the particualr student's home town is and I do not know whether he used his Hamilton address or his home town address as the official address. He didn't tell me if his invitation for interview was for MD/PhD or MD; although now it sounds like MD/PhD invitations are sent out first and the MD ones won't be out for another bit. Regardless, they are coming and best of luck to you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02mangas Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Hey, If the people who received interviews don't mind, could you post your stats (gpa, mcat, academic yr) so the rest of us have an idea who is being invited for interviews. Thanks so much! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
