Official Interview Invite Thread for 2008-2009

Alastriss · December 20, 2008

Hey n00b where did you interview this year? I don't recall seeing your name on any of the schools in this forum?

KennethToronto · December 20, 2008

are we done for?

this forum is so empty these days

empty...but I still check it all the time

Monster · December 21, 2008

for those who got an interview at rosalind, did u guys get small pooled first?...if sum1 gets small pooled how long do they take to send an invite?

I don't recall getting small pooled first...but you should check on the RFU thread on SDN. I remember people on there mentioning the small pool...or hot tub...m'I dunno

iheartmed · December 22, 2008

Hello everybody,

Just thought I would add that I have an interview at Wayne on Jan. 23rd. My only interview so far...I guess all you need is one!

I don't know if anybody else is as pessimistic as me but I don't want anybody to know (except husband and family) so there isn't a big pity party if I am not accepted anywhere What a roller coaster of emotions!

Monster · December 22, 2008

good luck iheartmed!!!

and yeah..I didn't even tell anyone I got accepted until I had the paperwork in hand...just in case it was a mistake:o

pm me if you have any q's about wayne 'cause I interviewed there...

Retsage · December 27, 2008

They're working on a Saturday two days after Christmas? Weird!

n00b · December 28, 2008

Most likely they confirmed it earlier but the system didn't send out the message until then.

token · December 28, 2008

Congrats Classic...nice to see people still getting invites!

This is kind of random but....what's the deal with Tufts? I thought they were pretty Canadian friendly.

flamesfan · December 28, 2008

hey i was wondering the same thing... i called tufts dec 22 and i was still under review which is like 3-4 months now?

token · December 29, 2008

Yeah it's been around 4 months for me as well. I'd probably decline the interview if offered at this point anyway, but I'm curious because no one here has piqued their interest yet.

mca · December 29, 2008

I didn't think Tufts was too friendly to Canadians. I ended up not applying because in the 2008-09 MSAR it says " Preference is given to US citizens and permanent residents who will receive a bachelor's degree from an U.S. college or university prior to matriculation."

That was enough to scare me off.

token · December 29, 2008

lol figures. I only applied because I know a lot of people who went there for undergrad, but I couldn't be bothered to research it.

We really have to update that Canadian friendly schools list and/or the wiki.

Alastriss · December 29, 2008

See I wanted to make an unofficial list of the schools that are truly canadian friendly, but up until this year Boston University was deemed unfriendly because a lot of people didn't make the cut last year, which is why I didn't apply this year.

I think its safe to add indiana U to the black list.
