As we extended our first round of invites and have been building tiers of waitlists for expected future cancellations, we had to trim our applicant pool and decline approximately 20% of our applications.

For anyone wondering about their applications status. Every app to date has been reviewed and IVs sent.
We have withdrawn approximately 20% of our apps. The remainder of applicants who have not been invited to interview will remain on our waitlist for future consideration.
While we hate to close the book on any application, we also realize many applicants also want this sense of closure. After that time, any applicant who hadn’t yet been invited and isn’t declined remains on our waitlist awaiting further movement.

We have no cutoffs and interview people with past failures.
We do not require Step for DOs; its not even factored in to scoring their apps
We truly do approach this process holistically with the goal of viewing every application no matter when you apply.

We cant interview everyone, and there will be so many successful applicants who we just don’t have the capacity to invite. We do not send rejections, but rather prefer to keep an extensive waitlist with notes so we can invite people down the road if spots open up later.

The vast majority of our applicants were easily qualified to match and we wish we could interview everyone. We recognize this process is imperfect when selecting our candidates. Regardless, we wish everyone the best of luck this IV season.

We will still have some interview spots left, and will send more invites once we reassess our number of spots as we see how many of our initial invites accept or decline the interview.

Sorry about not being clear on the website. We are requiring 1 EM SLOE for app purposes along with other letters. While subspecialty and O-sloes are preferred, we aren't holding it against people who can't get them. This interview season is unique and difficult. We get it.

We will have a good bit of movement from our waitlist in Dec and Jan, if not earlier. We’ll continue to review new apps as they come in. We have a few IVs to send, but are awaiting to see how many spots we’ll have open as people reassess invites post Univ release.

We can not, as far as I know, host IMG students for rotation. Has to do with the state as far as I know. We take IMG applicants for residency, but cant have them rotate.

We intend to withdrawal those applications in the coming weeks. The intention not to do so now is to relook at this list closer to November to give time for any new data to trickle in for reconsideration for our waitlist before withdrawal.
