Didn't see a thread for this yet, so I decided to start one. Did anybody else get in? I got into the 1 year track!
How long did it take them to get back to you. I sent my application yesterday.

I will be starting the 1 year track in the fall, and am currently doing my prereqs in the Post Bacc program, and taking the MCAT in Aug. There seem to be several threads talking about the downfall of this program, so I just want to say that they have a new program director, and they definitely have a Gross Anatomy prof.
So far at Barry, I have found my professors are genuinely available and willing to discuss problems or give suggestions. I know the class sizes are larger for the BMS program than the undergrad classes, so that might limit the personal connections. I think how much you get out of the program has a lot to do with how much effort you put in (like basically everything in life...).
Miami and surrounding areas are not so great for public transportation, you pretty much need a car. Or a roommate in the program with a car. Fortunately, I believe they're trying to work out the scheduling of classes so that you never have to be on two campuses in one day. I'm not sure how well that worked for the current semester, but hopefully that's how it will be set up in the fall.
Thanksafter i had everything in, it took them like a week to get back to me. A lady called me and told me I got accepted into the program. I also received an email shortly after the call
haha yeah same here. I'm still waiting on both Midwesterns, UMDNJ, BU MAMS oral healths track, and also Western
TheBizz, since your last post, have you hear back from any of the other schools?
I just got accepted into Barry's 1-year program, but I, too, am waiting to hear back from BU, UMDNJ, Midwestern and SFSU (post-bacc).
Are any of you per-dental? I'm still waiting on 7 dental schools as well as the four other masters programs, but it was certainly a good feeling when I read Barry's acceptance email.
Congratualtions to all of you! At least we are all one step closer to achieving our dreams of pursuing a profession in the health-care industry! It's something to be proud of
If anyone has any info on BU, UMDNJ, Midwestern (masters in biomed program) or SFSU's post-bacc program please let me know. Thanks!!
I actually did get into some other schools. I got into UMDNJ (newark campus) and MWU-Downers grove. I have a phone interview with the MWU- glendale tomorrow and also was invited for an interview at western that will be on March 28th but I have yet to hear from BU. I am also pre-dental.
For those that have been accepted, have you heard anything in regards to class schedule? start date? Financial aid info? etc?

For those of you doing the 18 month, when are you applying to med/dental school? I plan on starting in the fall but I am also doing med apps. If I get into the 18 month, what should I do?? Just apply next summer instead?i'm totally new to SDN this is my first post
Congrats to everyone that was accepted! I will admit that they haven't been sending out much info and most things I found out from talking to other students or just emailing people directly. Flor and Marline are pretty good about getting back to me whenever I have questions.
The first classes are 8/27 and orientation is 8/24 - just one day and we would register for classes then from what i've been told.
One of my friends just graduated and she showed me a screen shot of the classes for fall and for the most part they are all afternoon and evenings once a week. i will try to attach that to this post.
I'm doing the 18mth program -so i'm not sure for the 1year program -
Fin Aid- I filled out my FAFSA but didn't hear anything back so a few weeks later I just sent a message through the MyBarry site to Financial Aid and they emailed me back with the information.
Housing - I'm looking to room with someone i"ve been looking in Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Hallandale and Davie for a place where someone is looking for a roommate. But i'd be open to getting a new place with another student too.
see u guys in a couple mths

Hey guys!
This is my first post!
Congrats to those who got accepted. Barry should be receiving my DAT scores in about 4 weeks. I hope it's not too late to be considered for the program! What do you guys think my chances are? I'm really nervous. How long after you guys sent everything did you receive a decision letter?
I also applied to Midwestern. How long to they take to send a decision letter too?
Don't know how long it will take to hear back, but as someone said previously, "if you are breathing and have a transcript they will take you." I was accepted before my application was even complete. I think it's just a matter of whether you'll be accepted into the 1 year or 18 month track.
I'd hold out for Midwestern.
I just got my acceptance email!! (1 year track).
Thank you!Congratulations!!!
I just got my acceptance email!! (1 year track).
Roughly 2-3 weeks ago. Good luck!!congrats!! when was your application complete? My application was complete about 3 weeks ago and I still haven't heard anything yet
I guess I'll wait it out. The one thing about Midwestern I didn't like with the program is that it is for a Masters of Arts. Barry offers a Masters of Science which I feel is a little more valuable don't you think?
I could be wrong. I guess in the end, I would choose the shorter program so I can finally apply to dental school! Time flies and I don't want to graduate as a dentist too old.
I got accepted to Barry's 1 yr MS Biomed program this week as well. My application had been completed for about 4 weeks or so. I also got in the Rush U in Chicago, Colorado State, and am waiting to hear back from Midwestern's MA program. I'm hoping for Midwestern, truthfully. If anyone hear's back from Midwestern, please share the news. When I had the phone interview, the prof. said that the admissions committee was meeting that afternoon so it "could be a couple of days before you hear anything." That was exactly a week ago. If you have news, do share! I'm gunnin for MWU-MA then MWU CDM!Roughly 2-3 weeks ago. Good luck!!
