VCOM-LA is going to be the cheaper school. WCUCOM is about 1/2 the distance from my home.cheaper cost of attendance lol

Congrats, based on last year's thread people were getting interviewed in July and got accepted. Also, may I ask for your stats to see if I should still remain hopeful with wcucom hahaJust got an II today. This late in the cycle. Is this for WL interview or are they still accepting people? Also, can someone tell me what to expect in the interview?
The interview is about 30 mins with two faculty. Very standard questions about your motivations to pursue this path and one ethical question related to medicine at the end. There are only 139 members on FB page and they are gonna accept 175 students this year I believe. I don't think the spots are filled yet and there is gonna be for sure movement from the WL since some people are still waiting to hear back from other schools and other WLsJust got an II today.

crazy...Congrats, based on last year's thread people were getting interviewed in July and got accepted.
hey, I was told they are very selective in who they send their secondaries to. So be proud of that. Although this is kind of late in the cycle I wouldn't be surprised if you got an interview. It is all in the hands of god now. Maybe if you really wanted, you can write them a letter saying why you would like to attend the school and what you can bring to the table. I am on waitlist now. Who knows, maybe we will be classmates this coming yearJust got my II this afternoon. I’m so excited and nervous about it! Please help me out friends!!!!
I think II means interview invites. Either way, I really hope to get an interview here lol. Completed my secondaries in Feb and been silence since.hey, I was told they are very selective in who they send their secondaries to. So be proud of that.

Completed my secondary in September and just interviewed this past Friday. Waiting is the worst part! Good luck!!! Hope you get that III think II means interview invites. Either way, I really hope to get an interview here lol. Completed my secondaries in Feb and been silence since.
Agreed waiting is the worst part, but this is the only school I have seen that gives a pretty concrete time table for turnaround which is about 2 weeks and a day or so. They told me they make their decision about me this Wednesday (interview 05/7) and I should receive that decision shortly after, about 1-3 days. So the waiting isn't so bad when you have a day to look forward to lol. Good luck!Completed my secondary in September and just interviewed this past Friday. Waiting is the worst part! Good luck!!! Hope you get that II
Fingers crossed for some love hahaCompleted my secondary in September and just interviewed this past Friday. Waiting is the worst part! Good luck!!! Hope you get that II
From what I’ve found online. Seems like the first 10 months of the 20 month clerkship in years 3 and 4 is done at a single hub site.Just got a late interview but I’ve already paid my deposit at ACOM. Thoughts on WC vs ACOM? WC is closer to home (~4 hrs vs ~8 hrs) and about $40-50k cheaper overall. Housing in Hattiesburg looks a big more expensive than Dothan but not significantly. Better school options in Hattiesburg for my kids. I want to do rural FM so match stats aren’t super important to me.
Wondering how William Carey handles clerkship sites. Couldn’t find a lot of info on locations or how often students have to relocate during 3rd/4th year (I have school-age kids so I’m trying not to disrupt their lives more than necessary).
VCOM- Louisiana vs WCUCOM?
WCUCOM is accredited
VCOM-LA is about 6.5 hours from home. William Carey is about 3 hours.
VCOM-LA is about $7,500/ year cheaper.
VCOM three other campuses have higher first time COMLEX pass rates than WCUCOM.
VCOM has more hub sites for rotations in years 3 and 4.
VCOM-LA is a new school, and it has new facilities.
VCOM-LA has access to VCOM-TV allowing to watch lectures from every campus as they have identical curriculum.
VCOM is the second largest medical school in the U.S. so if the campus was to be hit by a natural disaster we could be distributed between the other campuses to not interrupt our education.
It's not really a brand new school since it's a branch school. They should have all the foundation down along with federal loans. However, if its me I would choose the one closer to home.There is absolutely no way I’d go to a brand new school unless it was my only acceptance.
Anyone hear from WCUCOM today?
