Interview Scheduling

This page applies to select CASs and WebAdMIT for AMCAS.

In this section, you can configure the Schedule Interview activity which allows applicants to select their own Interview dates and times from a drop-down. Available Interview dates and times are configured in WebAdMIT and can be different for each applicant group. For more information on configuring Interview types, see Interviewing.

Note that if you do not wish to use this feature, your admissions team can instead assign applicants and Interview times directly in WebAdMIT.

To configure, click the Schedule Interview link on the Applicant Gateway Editor page.

Example of Schedule Interview Activity:

Submit for Activation

Once you complete all required fields and save your Schedule Interview activity, click Submit for Review to submit it to the Client Support Specialist team for activation. A success message displays.

The Client Support Specialist team will then activate the Applicant Gateway activity within two business days. If you need your activity activated as soon as possible, contact the Client Support Specialist team.

Once activated, the activity is available the next morning and can be assigned to applicants in WebAdMIT.

Important: once you submit the Schedule Interview activity for activation, you can no longer edit it. Submit only when you are sure that the activity is complete and you have reviewed for accuracy. If you need to make edits after submission, contact the Client Support Specialist team. Requests for edits will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Please note that in most cases changes cannot be made.

To contact the Client Support Specialist team, call 857-304-2020 or email webadmitsupport@liaisonedu.com
