Interview invite 8/16!!
Me too!! So excited! First interview invite
Oh man though, Florida in early August...I'm used to midwest summers and winters; gonna have to look for thin/breathable interview clothes...
Florida is still horrible in august, 90-95 and humid
So for people with II, are you going to ask your letter writers to rewrite letters specific for LECOM Bradenton or just send in your atypical letters?
Advice from matriculates would be greatly appreciated as well.
We only have 30 days to pay the 1,000 deposit fee after an acceptance right?
That makes me slightly worried.

So we have to make a decision 30 days after an acceptance? I wonder how soon after an interview they offer acceptances.
I interviewed in September and my interview group was given the option of waiting to hear back on the admissions decision until December, which then also delayed how long we had to put down the deposit, or hear about the admissions decisions within 30 days after the interview, after which we were given 30 days to put down the deposit.
Oh wow I didn't realize that.
Just checked the 2014 osteopathic college info booklet and it sys the deposit is actually $1500 (and nonrefundable) now.

And these deposits are nonrefundable? That's a lot of money this early in app season
Oh wow, do you know if that affects admission outcome? I would definitely take the December option since most schools don't interview until later.
EDIT: Sorry, just read that you'll be going there.
I agree, that is just too much money to spend so early for an acceptance. While it would be great to have that saved seat, to give them 1,500$ and possibly losing it just seems too much. Though I guess for anyone that has LECOM-B as their #1, this would be great as anxiety for the whole app cycle would be over by September.

this was repeatedly asked on my interview day and we were told that waiting to hear back in December does not affect the admissions outcome.
I'm sure, thanks!
It does worry me that an II only means you have a ~40% acceptance. Seems a bit low compared to other schools where it can be up to ~80% acceptance, but let's see how it goes.
No interview invite for me yet

Hey everyone,
My pre-med advisor submitted all my LORs via Virtual Evals (including my DO letter).
LECOM uses virtual evals, right? When I check my letter status online, I am incomplete for all the letters, but complete for everything else including the waiver. I am worried/confused as to why this is the case?
I didn't use the LECOM letter instructions because I thought the virtual evals would be okay.
Can someone help me out here?
I have an interview 8/22.
Check to see if all your prereqs have been acknowledged. LECOM-E decided that I was missing 5 biology cred when aacomas says I have 24. And today LECOM-B says I am missing 6 behavioral sci wehn aacomas says I have 8. A call fixed it for LECOM-E but I have yet to notify Bradenton of their mistake. Frustrating technical difficulties....

I'm showing this for Erie

It doesn't seem like I'm missing anything, right?
Anyone know if they're waiting to send out secondaries with MCAT posted? I took my MCAT on July 2nd and it won't be officially posted till beginning of August.
Bradenton is my first pick and it's making me nervous that you guys are already getting invites!! Ahhh
Late night panic lol

LECOM-B has still not reviewed anything on me.
I am thinking because I submitted my secondary without an email. I want to call them on Monday.
Does this mean we should submit that secondary even without an invite?

This school only has a 40% acceptance post interview rate? That stinks
According to the old thread (if I read it correctly) yes. I believe everyone else gets "waitlisted".
Going to be a tense two weeks waiting to see if I get the acceptance or waitlist phone call.
Interview invite 8/16!!
I would probably post-pone my decision until December. But man, those odds are terrible for an II.
I will gladly take an acceptance in July and pay my $1500 even if I end up choosing another school.
