I thought I'd start a thread for everyone interested in applying here this cycle. I just submitted my application and it is one of my top choices.
Anyone planning on attending Discover DMU on June 30, from 2 to 5 p.m.?
Hello all. Almost have my application for DMU in. Just finishing up my PS and waiting on my transcripts from my post-bac year at VCOM. Pretty confident that I'll at least get an interview if not get in. I'm also applying to CCOM and KCUMB, but DMU is my #1.
Good luck to all of you!
Interesting that you did a postbac at VCOM yet you are not applying there. Could you please explain why?
I too am applying to DMU but I am having some reservations about the town. Anyone who has been there care to comment about what the town is like?
I don't think there are any. Unless it changes from previous years.does anyone know what the essays on the secondary app are?

This isn't a chances post, just needed some advice. On the secondary app there's an option to hold your file until your next MCAT score comes out. I did re-take my MCAT but the score will only be out on July 20th. Should I hold it or not with my current 3.2 GPA (both) and 27Q? Basically I'm worried that the benefits of a perhaps slightly increased MCAT will not outweigh the cost of delaying the secondary 3 weeks (I think I'm currently in the first batch of secondary admits).

Can somebody post the secondary? I want start working on it soon
I have a bit of a dilemma....any input would be greatly appreciated. I know DMU will accept either an MD or DO letter, but I'm sure a DO letter is preferred. The DO that I shadowed will probably write me a decent letter of recommendation, but she does not know me that well. There is an MD I have shadowed since high school (and continued to until recently), he knows me very well and I am confident he will write a great letter of recommendation. What would be more beneficial-sending in a decent DO letter or a great MD letter?
let us hope for the bestyeah this years class is supposedly overfilled by ~ 20 students...kind of disappointed since I'm on their waitlist...oh well . So I'll be joining you all this cycle by the looks of it. DMU is an awesome school, hopefully this cycle treats me a little better
Looks like the competition is going to be even stiffer for us. I read last years thread and it looks like they overfilled this years class and are offering scholarships to anyone who will defer until next year.
Less spots for us.
Did anyone opt for any of the dual degree programs on the secondary? I saw the ones they had to offer and I'm really interested in the D.O./ Masters in Healthcare Administration degree. Does it look good/bad if you do choose one of the dual degree options?
I am being incredibly impatient now..When the heck are they going to hand out interviews????!!!!
Anyone else really interested in the Rural pathway?

Received notice that my file is complete and will have a decision whether I get an interview within 30 days. They were pretty good with their time estimates last year, so I assume it won't be too long before I hear back. After interviewing and seeing this school last year, I really hope I get it this year.

Come on DMU!!!! Where are those interview invites? It seems like they should be starting any time now.
I had a dream the other night that they sent me an email that said they were pleased to NOT be considering me at this time. I hope that wasn't an omen.

o man, in that case i only have 10 days left to hear if im gonna be rejected or invited. when does DMU in general hand out interviews?
Hey guys! I went and took a tour of DMU and met with an admissions coordinator. They stated that they are dealing with their new first years, and that they should be sending out interview invites next week or the week after. You'll have access to their scheduling website where you can pick your interview date within a month! Goodluck all!
Ahhhhh, good to know!!!! DMU is one of my top choices! Keep my fingers crossed!
