Hey guys, I'm a current first year med (6 yr program) at RCSI from Alberta. I applied to both RCSI Dublin and RCSI Bahrain last application cycle. For any Canadian applicants worried about interviews, dont worry, many of my friends at RCSI got interview invites as late as mid April. As long as you haven't been rejected, they are still considering your application. Feel free to DM me on instagram if you have any questions! @noor.shaheenn

Hi I applied to RCSI I’m almost done with my foundation in the UK hope I get in I just want to ask how is everything there and any advices for the interview from RCSI and weather it is a dealbreaker and can change the decision or just to get to know me as a student.

Hi, I applied for RCSI last time and I haven't heard anything yet (not even an interview invitation). Should I be a bit worried😭?
Also I've heard that the last to apply is less likely to get in, but I wonder if that's true?

Just send an email and ask. If they have not rejected you it's most likely you're still in consideration. I also got an interview offer quite late (around March 22) and my interview is next week (April 15)

I was wondering the same thing so I emailed Atlantic Bridge to ask them more about how the rolling admissions work. They said that the admissions process is ongoing through the spring in summer months and there is no specific date by which final decisions are made. First-round offers are usually sent in late February/early March and late offers can be issued as late as August. As for the late applications, they are not guaranteed to be reviewed for first-round offers (still available for any subsequent rounds). As students reject their offers or withdraw later in the year, they leave a vacancy that may be filled by another student. In addition to this, schools may release additional places for international students which often happens in late spring and early summer. All in all, if you haven't received a decision by early summer this does not mean that your application has been rejected or overlooked. Hope this clears things up and best of luck!

Does this apply for ppl who have already done their interviews or those who are still waiting to be invited too?

I'm not too sure. I applied for GEM and am waiting for an interview invite. But I assume they should be sending out offers soon too. You can email them asking for an update on your application. That's what I did.

for ppl who have done the interview, what kind of questions should we expect?
