any news? NFA today following an early March interview
No idea. I think the last interviews are probably being sent out if they haven't been already. I can't recall how long we interview til.So any clue why I haven’t gotten a rejection and no II (I got an II last year). Just very confused
I believe there is a regular meeting at the end of April and then a big advocacy meeting on May 9th.Does anyone know when the next advocacy meeting will be?
Does anyone know the facebook link to the class of 2023 page? Thanks.
What happens at the regular meeting vs. advocacy?I believe there is a regular meeting at the end of April and then a big advocacy meeting on May 9th.
Are you referring to graduate credits? Do you have to file an additional form to take advantage of this or just have them see it on your primary app? TY.
We just started dedicated yesterday. We have to have taken the exam by June 22nd I believe.Does anyone know how much time LSU SOM gives for designated Step 1 studying? Thanks.
I received my NFA letter today after the committee met on Friday. Per Dr. Eubanks on my interview day (April 10), everyone who is still under consideration (those who received NFA letters) will be presented by one of their interviewers at the advocacy meeting on May 9th. The committee will vote on and then rank each candidate. Once the 200 seats in the class are filled, everyone who remains will be put on the waitlist. They don’t tell you where you are on the waitlist though. If you are still NFA after May 9th, the next communication you receive from the committee will be their final decision but that can be anytime between May 9th and July. Good luck everyone!What happens at the regular meeting vs. advocacy?
Once you submit FASFA it is out of your hands. You will wait a good bit, I don't think we heard anything til mid-June.How do we see our financial aid information?
I applied this cycle, used the 32-hour policy, and was accepted. There is no additional form to signify that you want to take advantage of the 32-hour policy. You just include your graduate grades where it tells you to on the primary app and, if you have more than 32 graduate hours, then they will look at your graduate GPA instead of your undergrad GPA. Not sure what they do if your undergrad GPA is better than your graduate GPA, but I imagine in that case they would use common sense and not replace your undergrad GPA with your graduate GPA, and instead would consider both your undergraduate and graduate GPA's together.
It is very tough knowing that a decision may already be made but we have to wait lol. I do believe it is snail mail as of right now, but if I'm wrong, I don't mind being corrected.I just thought they would do phone calls following the big advocacy meeting like in years past. Who knows, all we can do is wait!
When did the ppl that got calls interview? thx.Accepted!!! Call around 10:30 AM. Letters going out later this week.
Second this question...if anyone knows the answer.Does everyone that was accepted from this past advocacy meeting get a call or is it just a select few and the rest have to wait for letters?
I tried to message you but it wouldn't let me, but my question to you is what did you do after your first rejection that you think allowed you to finally get in? I already scheduled the MCAT again :-/I interviewed on March 26. 505 MCAT and a ~3.8 GPA. Like I said earlier in the post I’m a third time reapplication so please don’t give up! Keep applying and meet with Eubanks and do what he suggests. It can be painful at times but this admissions committee loves persistence.
If you have any questions feel free to message me.
Okay yeah just checking. Maybe tomorrow for meI have not received mine yet. Maybe today.

Yes I did. Good luck to you! Would be nice if spots opened up!Does the letter tell you where you are on the waitlist? I’m out of town and won’t be able to check my mail until Monday! And did anyone receive letters saying they were on the waitlist?
