SLU School of Medicine uses a rolling admissions process, and its admissions FAQ says applications received early in the cycle may be invited to interview earlier in the cycle. In practice, that means interview invites can start going out relatively early after the cycle opens, rather than all at once.

What SLU says

  • SLU states that rolling admissions means early applications may get earlier interview consideration.
  • The school also says the acceptance process begins October 15 and continues until July before orientation.
  • That doesn’t give a single invite date, but it does show the cycle is active for a long stretch.

Practical read

  • For applicants, the safest assumption is: submit as early as possible, because earlier files are reviewed sooner.
  • If your application is complete early, interview invites may begin arriving before the later part of the season.
  • Forum-style reports across med school discussions commonly place interview invite season in the fall through winter, though exact timing varies by school and application timing.

Bottom line

SLU does not publish one fixed day for sending interview invites, but it clearly follows rolling admissions, so earlier complete applications can receive earlier interview consideration.
