***Official Thread for 2016 BSMD applicants***

@allefficace Congrats! That is good to know, hopefully there will be others too. Wondering what will they tell candidates who have already been invited through Union?

Dr. Pence called first then my son received the email.

Did not get a UAB call. Disappointed.

I’m assuming all UAB notifications have already been made :frowning: I am sad

Maybe he hasn’t finished. He called my son at approximately 11:00 am. He has 30 to call!

Pssst–hey, y’all! On a completely different subject… does anyone know when in January, historically, the REMS interview notifications have come? My status on the portal is on step 3, and has been on step 3 for a couple of weeks now! ;3; Would it mean anything REMS-wise if it got to step 5?

Edit: Never mind… I just looked on the last year forum and found it!! Looks like it was on 1/21. Lonnnnnng way to gooooooo!

Do you think they release interviews on a rolling basis? some people say early January, but some people have already got interviews… (Siena/AMC)

Looks like UAB calls are done shouldn’t take that long to call 30 people unless he is really staggering them.

He could have gone to lunch between calls

i mean. if there are 30 people. and each call takes about 10 minutes. thats about 5 hours… hopefully he is still calling people…

isn’t it 40? 30 for med, 6 for dental and 4 for ophthalmology. he’s calling them all

@APScholar18, @sonpat
I didn’t get an interview for EMSAP. On the UAB BlazerNET portal, you can click on an email tab after you log in, and they have a letter up about the interview. Oh well!

@allefficace neither did I.

No big deal I likely wasn’t going to go to Alabama anyways.

oh yea just checked , didn’t get an interview :frowning: ah well

Same, no interview :frowning:

Thanks for the way to check @allefficace

It appears that all of the medical applicants being interviewed for UAB EMSAP have been called or emailed now, plus the two alternates.

It’s kind of odd how programs like UAB only interview the very top applicants and then only end up with like 6-7 new students because most of those students go elsewhere.

UCONN said they are going to begin reviewing apps soon so there is still some time until interview notifications come out!

@allefficace Thx for BlazerNet e-mail idea had never logged in to check e-mails before and now there would be no need anyway after this e-mail !!!

Has anyone clicked on the ā€œemailā€ tab and gotten an error message. Assuming that I didn’t get an interview since I haven’t received a call though
