Kansas City, KS
Sentiment score: 5.2 / 10
Applicants express significant confusion and frustration about the University of Kansas dermatology program's interview timeline and communication, with repeated questions about when invitations will be released and interview dates. While some applicants praise the program as relaxed and chill with good work-life balance, there is notable concern about the program's selectivity, interview outcomes, and comparison to peer programs like Mizzou. The program appears to have a reputation for being somewhat opaque in its processes and communication with applicants.
✅1. Incredibly well-prepared for its first cycle. Attendings were amazing, rest of staff were amazing, genuinely invested in mentoring students. Rotators got opportunities to get exposure in all aspects of dermatology. Work at a safety-net hospital, so great for those who want to work with an underserved population and not just bread-and-butter derm. Plenty of research options for those interested too.
Really surprised that University of Missouri-Kansas City's derm program (new one that entered the match this year), didn't take any home students.
I think their students match well though so could just be they wanted to go elsewhere but you're right
Can someone give me some thoughts and persepctive on Mizzou vs Kansas
Unlike Mizzou, Kansas mostly takes Mizzou people. If you are a Mizzou, you should rank Kansas over Mizzou
is kansas a better program than mizzou?
Why does nobody ever give a real answer about Kansas?
Mizzou and Kansas seem to have similar vibes, but Kansas City is a better location
Thoughts on UMKC?
Ranking it higher because St. Louis >>> Columbia, MO
it's in kansas city not STL
Thoughts on the KUMC interview today?> Actually really enjoyed it, if anything they moved up my list! I thought they were all super nice, questions were fair, also peds exposure is really fantastic
Folks interviewing for Kansas tomorrow, it looks like on the scheudle we launch right into a first interview and there is no welcome session? Is that becasue tonight and the social serve as that or did I miss a link for a general room tomorrow before the actual interviews? Thanks in advance
How was the U kansas interviews last week?
also wondering what the vibes are at this program
which residency website (frieda, texas star, residency explorer) shows gold to interview conversion %? also why are so many ppl gold signal kansas?
you can see the conversion on residency explorer, idk what's going on w/ Kansas since most of their interviews last year gave silver signals

Can't believe how many of you were simping Kansas. What a shitshow of a program with the most awkward interviewers I've ever met. One of them legit came across as a sociopath. < lol so i wasnt the only one? < did one of them trash people go into sub specialties of derm? < 100% holy FUCK < they're a fucking mess < sadly not the worst interview i've had..... < wow, can't imagine worse < 🙃< why was your worst the worst? < they straight up asked questions that were not allowed and were aggressive, basically the whole interview was this one on steroids < someone deleted comment saying I'm trying to prevent people from ranking this program. wrong- this is just my experience and you should do what's right for u. < Had my Kansas interview a couple weeks ago and all the interviewers were definitely autistic. Glad they're all collected in one spot so I can avoid them
Has anyone been emailed an interview schedule for univ of kansas interview tomorrow? < yes
