I contacted them about a timeline and this is what I got in response, thought you guys would like to know! 

 

"Thank you for reaching out! The application cycle just opened at the end of April and does not close until October 1, 2020. Interview invitations will be sent out to applicants about a month after the cycle closes, and interviews will not be held until the new year."

Thank you for the update! Last year I believe the last interviews were November, so the timeline has been pushed back a little.

just received an email from them today stating my application is under review!

Is this program rolling admissions?! I applied to 14 schools in May and may apply to a few more non-rolling just to be safe..

I believe this program is non-rolling. If I could offer some advice (don't know if its good or not), but I would wait on the non-rolling schools until you HAVE to apply to meet the deadline. Maybe this is wrong but personally I applied to 13 schools all in May, and 5 were non-rolling. Since then I have been accepted into one and interviewed and waiting on the decision of another. These are both January start dates so I will be pulling most of my applications from the other schools. In the case of my non-rolling schools, I am pulling my app before they even look at it, ugh. I am over the moon happy with my acceptance but wished I saved some money by waiting to apply to the non-rolling schools. Again, just my two cents

I'm in the exact same boat as you! I have been accepted to a January start program and while I am ecstatic about my acceptance, I am slightly bummed I won't have the opportunity to hear back from other programs in time. I interviewed at MGH last year and was put on the waitlist. The program, facility and people were wonderful!

Hi everyone! I applied back in May and received confirmation that my application was complete and ready for review on May 27. Excited and hopeful to hear back soon!

[TheColorBlue 34]

Wow this wait is annoying, and we still have a week until the deadline!

A previous poster stated that the invites would be sent out about a month after the cycle closed on 10/1 and that interviews would not happen until the new year.

I have some inside scoop that there will be interviews in December! So hopefully we hear from them soon.

Usually just two days, a Friday and Saturday. Then they also send out emails for an interview waitlist. I was on that last year and wasn’t pulled off.

Last year, I was invited on 9/27 for an 11/1 interview. However, this cycle may vary due to covid and whether the interviews will be conducted via Zoom or in-person?

Same timeline here but for an interview waitlist. Official rejection on 11/8 so basically a week post interview

[Acoffer2 10]

Has anyone received an invitation for an interview yet?
