I interviewed at Scholl on 10/27 and I received an email today saying my file was reviewed by the admission committee and put on hold for the MCAT scores. I sent my MCAT score to AACPMAS back in August but apparently they were never posted. I spoke to them today and they said it should be cleared up in a few days. The email said that they, obviously, can't send an acceptance without official scores. I'm hoping this is good news because if they were going to reject me I doubt they'd bother asking for official scores. Scholl is my number one choice so I'm hoping to hear back soon.

I interviewed & got a rejection e-mail from CSPM:(; so I have to now scramble to reschedule my interviews (DMU/Scholls/NYCPM....Kent?/Barry?) to an earlier date since I have to put down my deposit for Western by 11/30. I was planning on staying in California so I would like to save myself some stress & just put down my deposit but Western's facilities didn't impress as much as I would have liked.

Thanksgiving is going to screw me over w/ the travel & holiday closure at the interview sites but I would like to interview at DMU/Scholls/NYCPM before the holiday if my work schedule permits. I'm assuming the committee won't be meeting during the week of thanksgiving so I'm not even sure when I will even hear back from them after the interview....hopefully before 11/30. I'm not kicking myself for canceling my DMU 11/10 interview last week b/c of the ticket price.

Give Western a call and let them know what you are doing and maybe they will give you an extension. Do some investigating and see if the other schools will be worth the trip for you. If you doubt the school will be a good fit then it might not be wise to interview and you can save some money.
 
I had the interview, the first thing they did was talk about scholarships so I took that as a good sign

Received an acceptance to CSPM this morning.

However, the email states that 10 days are given to submit a deposit? Isn't 30 days the norm?

According to the AACPM, schools are supposed to give you at least 30 days at this stage of the game.

Schools and colleges of podiatric medicine begin extending offers of admission to acceptable
candidates anytime after the interview. Applicants will be requested to submit any necessary
documents, including a deposit, according to the following schedule:
 Through March 31, allow 30 days for candidates to respond to offers of admission;
and
 Between April 1 and June 30, allow 14 days for candidates to respond to offers of
admission; and
 After July 1, candidates may be asked for an immediate deposit.

10 days is crazy fast. I am sure that the date was not updated on the acceptance when it was sent to you. Give Andre a call and he will get it right for you.

Yes, I contacted AACPMAS and they fixed the issue after a few days. Kim from admissions emailed me last Wednesday and said that she had updated my application and submitted it for final review so I'm hoping to hear back soon.

Congrats!! Think you'll be going to CSPM? I interviewed a few places after and got other acceptances but decided to just cancel everything else and go there. Something just really drew me there so I decided to go with the gut!

I'm still interviewing at schools, but I definitely like CSPM. The Highland Hospital rotations during third year are a huge benefit as the 3rd/4th years there seem extremely capable. The students I met weren't stressed and seemed to enjoy the curriculum. However, living in the Bay Area can be expensive, so I need to weigh out the logistics of attending the schools I applied to, to find the place I'm most financially comfortable with.

I'm excited that you have made up your mind and think you made a great decision!

I felt the exact same way as you. About the high cost of living, a student on my interview made a great point which was with their generous scholarship money like $20k, the amount spent would be comparable or perhaps even cheaper than going to a place like say Kent with a much lower cost of living but somewhere where you'd most likely be paying full tuition (unless you get their 4.0 half tuition scholarship...which would be awesome..I don't know if I'll be THAT awesome though haha)
 
KSU acceptance today! :)

Loved the feeling I got from the faculty/adcom here.

I got accepted into NYCPM and Temple recently and I am having trouble deciding between the two of them. Anyone wanna help me decide?
 
For those that interviewed at Barry, how long before you heard back? *getting anxious*
 
Accepted this morning to Temple!

The decision that I have to make in the coming week(s) is becoming more and more difficult.
