I haven't heard anything yet aside from a complete email around late august/early september? Anyone else complete around that time still waiting to hear back???

Hey guys I just interviewed here yesterday, and I absolutely fell in LOVE. I The only thing is I can't remember if they had an OMM lab. I know this might be a strange question, but all I can remember was OMM tables set up in the hall because the students had a practical. Can anyone remind me if there was indeed a designated room for OMM?

We did get a tour of the sim lab and all of the simulators, but I don't think we got to see the actual OMM rooms because there was a practical going on lol

I really really really hope I get in here!

Congratulations to all those who have received an acceptance!

I was wondering how should we go about paying the matriculation fee? I received an email after my acceptance but it did not state how to pay the deposit.

same here. We will be getting something in the mail soon enough with directions I believe

 

[543210]

Just out of curiosity from those accepted, did y'all get a written note in the corner of your acceptance letter from the dean?

yeah it was actually from the president though, which was very nice of him.

 

[CYP5]

Congratulations! And you should receive a letter from VCOM soon with instructions on how to secure your seat by paying the first deposit as well as getting your background check.

I think the next acceptances are going out this Friday. I honestly wake up everyday hoping it's Friday only to be let down. lol

 

[CYP5]

I was let down so many times before I was accepted. Don't worry. Good luck everyone on getting that call today!

Was this in VA?

 

[XFireMedic]

I interviewed here on 10/08 and Whitney told us that we should hear back early this coming week. I was thinking by Wednesday of that holds true, but I know it's always dependent on the committee.

 

[Walter H White]

Accepted just now!!!!!!!

 

[Let It Be]

Accepted!

 

[HulaHoopingDO]

Accepted today too! Interviewed 10/3. Long time SDN lurker and first-time poster. So excited!

For those of you with interview invites or those that have been interviewed or accepted already, how long was the time frame from being complete to getting the invite?

sGPA - 3.67

MCAT - 28 (11/8/9)

Check your junk/spam email folder. A lot of people have had their "application received" notifications go there. They've also had secondary invites to there too!

 

[DarkMatter0]

Member 0922,

Thanks. I called application services. They have my primary and LORs. The application is under review, but I should have a decision by the end of the week.

 

[HulaHoopingDO]

Member 0922,

Complete - 8/2
Interview Invite - 9/3

So about a month.

 

[Buckeye1992]

Out of all the DO schools I applied to, this is the only one that I haven't heard from for an ii... so it goes I guess.

I have been complete for over three months and am still under review. So don't fret, they take their time sending out secondaries. They have two processes which first take 2-3 weeks and the second process takes around 4-6 weeks, so you are looking at a long wait possibly.

 

[chocolateislife]

Does anyone know what the numbers are for getting an interview at VCOM VA?

 

[Member 0922]

Just got an interview invite! Was complete 10/3.

 

[DarkMatter0]

I received my secondary today! For some reason I keep getting an login error when I try to access the secondary. Has anyone else had an issue logging into the VCOM system?

 

[GOWINGS]

That's when I was complete too! Hoping for an interview, but I'm not from an Appalachian state.

I'm IS & have always lived in rural Appalachia. So don't fret if you haven't gotten an II yet!

 

[CYP5]

I put up a VCOM Class of 2018: Virginia Campus FB group, for those of you who would like to join.

Thanks!!!

 

[Member 0922]

I got the call Friday inviting me to the interview and they told me they would send a follow up email with details. I still haven't received that email (I've checked the spam folder, too!). Anyone else in the same boat?

 

[CYP5]

I would just call the offices today/tomorrow about your confirmation email, they should have sent a follow up email after setting up your interview date.

 

[CYP5]

Thanks!!!

Let me know if you can access the FB page/see it.

I'm in the same boat as you! Invite Friday and no follow-up email! I'm gonna call admissions tomorrow!

Okay! I'm glad I'm not the only one. What day is your interview? Mine is 10/29 (I think! I was so excited I am not 100% sure I remembered the date correctly!)

 

[walkitoff]

Let me know if you can access the FB page/see it.

hmm still not able to find it. I can find the carolinas campus page though. Do you have it set to private or something? Perhaps you can invite me. Its Shelby Lorraine Lutz on fb

 

[Member 0922]

Capitalmed,
