This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Is there a students FB page or whatsapp group I can join for students starting LECOM-B in 2021.

Has anybody received a call from them trying to get you to do their masters program? 😤
 
Info session 11/20 and my folder still has the red “x” next to all of the requirements. Anyone else not have them change over to received yet? I know someone said they think they pull them over when they review your video but I just want to be sure.

Info session on 10/23 and haven't seen a portal update yet. Anyone from 10/23 in the same boat?

Did you apply to their masters program? I didn’t, but I got a call asking if I’m interested in the masters of biomedical ethics??? I didn’t understand.... or is this how they reject you lol?

I don’t think it’s a rejection necessarily. I think it’s an option they send everyone. They sent it to me and then I got an interview a week later

Ok thanks for letting me know! I was just caught off guard, and definitely don’t want To do a masters honestly.
 
Acceptance letter received today! Zoom session 10/16

For all the curious applicants out there --
I received an alternate list letter in mail today (Dec 14, 2020).
I got an interview invite in August
I did my info session via zoon on Sep 18, 2020.
My stats were: sGPA 3.8, cGPA 3.9, MCAT: 503
I am NOT planning to join the alternate list because I have acceptance to my top choice school already and so that I can give my spot to someone who is more eligible than me :)

Info session on 10/23:
I just noticed my portal change to the “decision has been made... 14 days.. etc” but my checked items are all red x’s. Should I be concerned that this is a rejection?

timeline
7/22: submitted aacomas
7/28: lecom-b received aacomas
7/29: secondary received
8/2: submitted secondary
8/3: lecom-b processed aacomas
9/11: received video interview invite
9/22: submitted video interview
10/7: received zoom link via email
10/9: attended mandatory zoom info session
10/12: all turned green except red X for MCAT (applied AIS- submitted both ACT (126) & SAT (122), expired MCAT score 7/2017, cum gpa: 3.7)
11/19: status on portal changed from under review post-interview to decision has been made
11/27: received letter in mail... waitlisted & will find out latest 7/2021 regarding status

next steps... thinking about calling the school & inquiring about what happened- will likely email a letter of intent as those who are still interested are allowed to do so within a fortnight of receiving the letter stating the decision, though i think the biggest problem is that i mentioned i would retake the MCAT 9/28 & never did. my expired mcat score is really low, which is why i used AIS. i will likely ask if i may have a benefit taking the mcat in 2021 to increase my chances. not sure. anyone else have any advice? feel free to DM about advice, anything about this post, etc.

i figured posting this timeline would help someone else out.

P.S. from the mitt AKA MI, but attended UG in FL & graduated in 12/2017

Is it just a video interview this year we have to submit? There's not a zoom group interview?

It’s okay, I wasn’t that great either. And I’m sure that’s true for many. I’ll pray for you!

Just got the official acceptance in the mail (was alternate about a month ago). Letter dated 12/1, postmarker 12/16 and delivered 12/18 with a deposit due at 1/1. Is it worth a call to ask them if they would push the deposit date back considering I got their snail mail almost three weeks after they made the decision?

That’s awesome! Congratulations! 🎉
 
@snl1001 If you’re going to ask them to push the date back, claim financial hardship. Otherwise, they may think you’re holding out for another A elsewhere and will likely say “no” lol
