Flower Interviews
We issue invitations for interviews when enough information is available for us to make a decision. In most cases this is not until after Dean's Letters arrive on October 1st. This is almost always the case for institutions where clerkship grades are only revealed in the Dean's Letter. We expect that all applicants will be notified about their interview on or before November 15th unless applications are incomplete at that time. As noted earlier, we review applications that are received after the October 31st deadline, but interviews are only rarely granted to those who apply late unless there are extenuating circumstances. Interview days for 2012-2013 are:
  • Tuesday, November 27th
  • Tuesday, December 4th
  • Friday, December 7th
  • Friday, December 14th
  • Tuesday, December 18th
  • Friday, January 4th
  • Friday, January 11th
  • Tuesday, January 15th
  • Friday, January 18th
Approximately 30 candidates are invited for each interview day.

MD/PhD Days: Candidates with MD/PhD degrees or PhD-like research experiences who plan research careers following residency are invited to participate in additional sessions on one of the Thursday afternoons prior to the December 14th and January 11th interview days. These sessions have been very popular in the past. They are designed to acquaint applicants with the research and fellowship opportunities in the Boston area and give them a chance to meet several scientists in their areas of interest. The applicants also have dinner with residents who plan to become physician-scientists. The MD/PhD days are entirely optional and are not part of the evaluation process.

Minority Applicant Dinners: Under-represented minority candidates are invited for an informal evening gathering prior to their interview to familiarize them with special opportunities available within the BCRP and discuss any questions they may have about the program or the local community.
