<p>I had the Rutgers phone interview about a month ago. They let me know a day in advance.</p>
<p>I hate to be annoying, but if anyone has any thoughts/info on Boston University, it would be much appreciated. Do you think they’re done with interview notifications (i.e. if you don’t have an interview this week, that’s it)? </p>
<p>I would really like to know if I’ve been rejected, because this ‘pending’ stage is nerve-wracking :)</p>
<p>Laloooji, did you receive anything from Rutgers Newark? I received a letter last week indicating that I am in the honors program with Chancellor and Presidential scholarships. I am not sure if this means that I will not get the interview for BA/MD program. In addition to NJMAN94, another student says that he got Rutgers interview.</p>
<p>Just got the Connections email :(</p>
<p>Waitlisted. Was EVERYONE waitlisted, or just a few people?</p>
<p>Hi catchmoresun,</p>
<p>I have the interview scheduled on Jan-30. It appears they place a higher value on the medical/science research/activities. One of the last year’s interviewees said “some of the interviewers were really easy and some asked tough questions”. Some of the questions are same as the questions listed in other posts on this blog:
- Why do you want to be a doctor? … etc…</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>It was for rutgers-Newark/njms 7year ba/md…no it was completely unexpected!!</p>

Here is some clarification on Rutgers from my side.
I received admissions to Rutgers - Newark College of Arts and Sciences. This was way back in Nov.
At the same time, I also got an email saying that I am being considered for BA/MD. Based on this, I assume that if you get admitted to Rutgers UG, it does not mean that you are rejected from BA/MD unlike Penn State
The BA/MD program I applied to is Rutgers/UMDNJ. I called them last week and I am told that they have not called anyone for interview so far and it will be a couple of weeks more.
Couple of interviews that I see here, it appears, are for Rutgers/NJMS (I learnt that there is another program thru Robert Wood Johnson Medical School but that is for Sophomores of Rutgers)</p>
<p>Has someone actually gone for an interview for Rutgers/UMDNJ?</p>
<p>laloooji</p>
<p>I’m applying to Rutgers/UMDNJ as well, and was notified by e-mail that my application was being considered. I have not heard from them regarding an interview, so I’m waiting.</p>
<p>I applied to Rutgers (Newark)/NJMS. NJMS is a college under UNDNJ. Like you, I got acceptance letter into UG and email that my application for BA/MD is being considered back in Nov. I received another letter last week that I am accepted into Rutgers Newark Honors College.</p>
<p>The Rutgers (New Brunswick) offers BA/MD for sophomore students with RWJMS, which is another college under UMDNJ.</p>
<p>I actually already had a 10 minute phone interview from a Rutgers doctor this past monday. Not sure why they said they weren’t starting interviews till next week? Maybe mine was only a initial interview and that they will be calling people to actually interview in person</p>
<p>Did anyone notify you in advance to schedule phone interview? The Nov email indicated that the initial interview would start in mid January and run through early February.</p>
<p>no I didn’t get any advance notification…the person just called my house and asked to talk to me and then he interviewed me there on the spot</p>
<p>btw I think Drexel programs are starting to send out Med School Interviews. Villanova/Drexel sent a med school interview notification for me yesterday (one med interview is good for all programs).</p>
<p>Has anyone gotten word of an interview for Union/Albany Med program?</p>
<p>Has BU called more students for interviews?</p>
<p>If you do not get an interview from Villanova program, can you still get an interview for the Drexel/Drexel Program???</p>
<p>Anyone have acceptance rates if you receive an interview?</p>
<p>Running count:</p>
<p>Interviews:
Boston U (notified early Jan, I think) (interviewed on 1/20)</p>
<p>Accept 30 out of 80 interviews: U Miami
(Notified in late Dec) (interviewed on 1/17)</p>
<p>VNova / Drexel (Notified yesterday or the day before)
(interview in early Feb)</p>
<p>Penn State / Jeff (notified in late Dec) (Interview also in early Feb)</p>
<p>Rejected:
GWU
TCNJ / UMDNJ (not officially, but notifications were finished)</p>
<p>I think each UG can choose to forward you, but if the MS rejects you then you can’t get in from any for the Drexel progs. Not 100% sure though. The 7 and 8 year ones also operate differently too.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure tcnj keeps interviewing throughout feb so i wouldnt say you’re out yet</p>
<p>are there still people here who haven’t heard back from RPI?</p>
<p>And did anybody receive any new notification from the drexel/drexel program? (besides the notification of the app being forwarded to med school)</p>
