    Summary of Application Experience

    8/4/2007 AMCAS submitted.
    8/27/2007 AMCAS verified.

    9/22/2007. First rejection, Vanderbilt.
    9/26/2007. Sent in secondaries to University of South Carolina and University of South Alabama. Neither school's application instructions or website mention anything about accepting a fee waiver; however, as these schools accept so few OOS applicants I do not want to pay their secondary fees... so sent in my apps with just a copy of my AMCAS fee waiver and here's to hoping that they'll consider my app anyway!
    9/28/2007. Received my first interview invite yesterday from Georgetown. Yay! Called to schedule today, wanted to interview on Fri. Nov 8 but date was full so scheduled for Mon. Nov. 12.
    I'm complete at UNC now so should be able to schedule an interview soon!
    10/5/2007. Interview invite from ECU. Nice Surprise!
    10/11/2007. Invite from EVMS.
    10/18/2007. Based on info on SDN, called Wake Forest for a 'status check', was told I was in the top interview pool and was able to schedule interview.
    10/22/2007. Interview invite from University of South Alabama for 11/7. Called and rescheduled for December.
    10/25/2007. Received a voicemail from UNC about scheduling an interview. I think this voicemail was left at least a few days ago... stupid cell service. Called and scheduled interview for 11/14.
    11/2/2007. First interview, EVMS. Unsure how I feel about Norfolk, but I really liked the school and all the students and faculty were very friendly and laid-back.
    11/7/2007. ECU interview. I liked the school a lot and was really impresed with how tight-knit the class is because of its small size.
    11/12/2007. I loooooved Georgetown.
    11/14/2007. Had an emergency come up and had to reschedule UNC interview at the last minute. I'm really disappointed about having to delay this interview but I'm rescheduled for December.
    11/28/2007. Wake Forest interview. Liked the school a lot, students seem very happy at Wake.
    12/3/2007. After a few weeks of calling EVMS to check on my app, I finally got a decision this morning. ACCEPTED! Unbelievably ecstatic to know I am actually going to be a doctor! Was planning to cancel my South Alabama interview anyway because of financial/time constraints, but knowing I already have an acceptance makes that much easier!
    12/5/2007. Interviewed at UNC. Really loved the campus, the students, and my interviewers. Came home to find my acceptance packet from EVMS!
    12/7/2007. Email from Wake Forest. Waitlisted.
    1/7/2008. UTennessee rejection in the mail.
    1/12/2008. Placed in 'competitive applicant pool' at Georgetown (snail mail).
    1/18/2008. Tulane rejection (snail mail).
    Late January 08. Rejections from Cornell and Northwestern.
    2/9/2008. Rejection in the mail from ECU.
    June 2008 - Accepted at Wake Forest, withdrew from Georgetown.
