Hopefully by Wednesday! Last year Queen's sent out on January 31st. Ottawa also sends out invites tomorrow. Could potentially be a really good or bad week for me haha. Best of luck to you!

Should be really soon! Especially because the first interview weekend is pushed back one week this year.

For the last 4 years, It looks like Queens has sent out invites on the last business day in January. So we should hear by Wednesday I’m hoping!!

Anyone think there's a chance today could be the big day?

If not today, then tomorrow

The wait for Queens has been the most agonizing, given their relatively opaque selection criteria. The suspense is killing me.

I feel the same way... since there's no information about what they really want it feels like anything could happen which causes me to refresh my email every 5 min

Very likely to get it tomorrow. They’ve sent it on the last business day of January for the past few years. 

I applied just for the lolz. I have a 123 in CARS but I figured Queen’s is mysterious enough to justify an app haha

Yes, Queens did send it out on Tuesday, January 31 last year.  However, this year they have moved the first round of interviews to the February 24, 25 weekend.  They might send invites out today?

What was the first interview weekend last year?

[Livinalberta 105]

I believe it was March 4, 5 2017?  And then March 25, 26.  So definitely an earlier start to interviews this year.  Maybe Queens decided to schedule interviews during February break to allow travel time and not miss class?  Good idea.

maybe someone can be the brave caller to find out when they'll be sent out  

[IMislove 560]

Or not because in the real working world that’s annoying and it’ll come out when it comes out. Have patience friends, it’s a virtue.

[insomnias 130]

I wonder how the adcoms who read premed101 threads feel about this one lol

[Comprehensible 40]

Does Queen's let us pick dates? The weekend of the 24-26 is already insane for me.

 

[Livinalberta 105]

 They did last year!

I guess tomorrow is the day of reckoning... 

[Livinalberta 105]

I am kinda thinking that tomorrow is the Invite/Reject Interview Day!  Everyone try to get a good night's sleep!

The trick is to assume Queens will already reject you. Did this for all the schools I applied to - the interviews I got became way more meaningful/surprising and those I didn't were expected so nothing lost Call it pessimistic but it works!!

That’s definitely the best way to look at it haha. Just use any excuse in your stats to sell yourself short and expect a rejection. You’ll be super happy to receive an invite and you won’t be too distraught if you don’t.
