Hi all!! I haven't seen a thread for this year's application cycle so I thought I would start one and say hello. I submitted my app late June. 

[JED617]

I'm applying! Everything is verified :) it's a new program, but it looks good!

[Rmm1616]

I also submitted my application towards the end of June! Good luck everyone! 

[ksoneil7]

I am also in the process of applying...does anyone have any insights into how long CASPA took to verify/send apps?

Thanks!

[cnunez]

I submitted my apply late June, it was verified about 3 weeks ago. Really looking forward to hearing back from this program, I applied last year and got an interview but was waitlisted after the interview ): This is definitely my top choice though, the school is great!

I'm confused about the supplemental application. Do they want us to upload transcipts/GRE Scores/Recommendations? I thought that's why we were going through CASPA?  Please help!

 On the supplemental application they tell you what sections are required.  It's really quick and easy and not to mention FREE. You don't have to attach transcripts, recs or anything like that. With that being said, I do suggest completing the diversity statement, despite it being "optional".

 

 

Best of luck to you!

Thank you for taking the time to respond :)

Hi cnunez, I hope you don't mind me asking but did they let you know why you were waitlisted/not accepted?  I am planning on applying this upcoming cycle and am curious as to what they focus on when reviewing applications.  Thanks and good luck!! :)

Just called to check on when interview invites would be sent out and they said "mid to late September"....

 

Just FYI

[KSPA14]

Anyone heard anything?

[acbio354]

nope

[ksoneil7]

When I log into my MGH application, it still says 

RECEIVED APPLICATION - READY TO PROCESS

What does everyone else's say? For some reason I thought that I had read somewhere that this should say UNDER REVIEW...

I submitted my application well before the deadline, but my CASPA was not verified until a few days after the deadline....just wondering if this might prevent review of my submission.

Thanks all!

When I login mine says under review! Fingers crossed

[KSPA14]

Mine says "being reviewed"

[twonfields]

Yes, mine also says Being Reviewed." Good luck to everyone, hopefully we hear soon.

Hopefully we hear soon

[ksoneil7]

Just an update: I finally received the email saying that my app is now ready to be reviewed (I had posted previously about my app being verified on the later side of things).

Has anybody who was processed earlier heard anything yet?

GOOD LUCK ALL!!

Seems like a fantastic program :)

[emthatch]

Mine has been "in review" since 7/27..... I'm so ready to hear something! 

[freeburd904]

They usually send out interview invitations in the first week of October.

[jpshoe]

Just got an email about an interview but I'm planning to decline it as I have other options. Best of luck to everyone! Wanted you all to know they seem to be moving along now. 

[cnunez]

Just got an interview invite, can't wait!

[emthatch]

I did too! Just sent in my RSVP. See you there! 

[umnuctec09]

I received my invite and sent in my RSVP Friday as well! Can't wait to meet everyone! 

[sar]

Any more invites
