They processed my LOR's and transcripts today! They will be doing it all this week. After logging in to check the status of them every day, they finally approved them. One step closer!

People are really applying to Columbia. I hope I get in.I applied to Columbia, Howard, UVA
Dai is a form. The professor should fax or email the form. You can find the form on smdep website. That's the link http://smdep.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/recform-2015.pdfi know i just asked 3 questions lol but what do i send with the lor and who does my professor make it out to?
It depends on your school. For mine, I went to the registrar's office, I filled a form that asked for name, where to send the transcript to, how many needed and other questions. I gave them to smdep transcript form. They attached the smdep transcript form to my transcript and mailed it to smdep's offfice. The smdep transcript form enables them to quickly match your transcript to your application. That's the transcript form link http://smdep.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/otform-2015.pdf and All documents are electronically forwarded to the designated site(s) within 10 business days of receipt. I hope that answered your question.also how do i sent my transcript do i go to my school and ask or can i do it online?
same here! When I read previous posts, someone wrote that since you have your transcript and one LOR your application is kind of complete. But I'm not sure of this. I read in the last smdep forum someone got accepted with only one LOR and transcript. I don't think it's a problem.YAY! They finally processed stuff! However, I have a question. I am still waiting on one more LoR, one has already been received, but at the top is says my application was "completed" as of yesterday. Does this mean that they have sent my application out to the schools I applied to even though I am still waiting on a LoR? Thank you for your help!!
I'm not sure what it means but it sounds exciting! good luckMy application says "Under Review" for Yale !!!! oh my god...
I don't necessarily think so. I wrote about a similar thing I did in high school. In my opinion I think It just shows how passionate you are about medicine.Hi everyone! I'm applying this cycle and was wondering would it hurt my chances of getting accepted if I mentioned any past experience shadowing doctors in my personal statement? I'm an URM, but I have been involved in previous internships like SMDEP and it enhanced my desire to practice medicine. I know someone said "focus on making you're personal statement heartfelt" and I don't want to throw off my struggles with my experiences. If that makes any sense. Please help!!
That's what I thought up until a couple days ago! Yeah, it's February 1st. I'm just concerned about how long it might take to process LORs and the transcript.. like if I get them in January 29th, will that be okay.. I'm calling the office tomorrow morning for sure.The first round of applications aren't due until February 1st correct?
I got really nervous and thought it was Jan. 15th haha
Yale updated my status to "Application in Review" . I'm definitely nervous.
I hope so!!!I know me too! Hopefully we get in :/ wonder what some of the stats are for past Yale alumni. I mean if we applied early and have good personal statements we should be in pretty good standing right ?
My UVA application is in review! But I still need to submit one more LOR. I guess as long as they have one LOR they start reviewing the apps
What program did you attend?I did SMDEP this past summer. Any questions, I'll answer them. Feel free to PM as well. Best of luck everyone.
http://smdep.org/contact/does anyone you the smdep number or where on the site I can find it?
louisville is one of my sites !I've finally got my first LOR in and my app is now in review at university of Louisville
Oddly enough, my application was in review before my first LOR came in, which I didn't think was possible
Where and when did you guys apply?

From people I know that have participated in the UCLA one, it has no clinical experience.I noticed UCLA said they don't reimburse you for travels but can you still apply for the travel grant?
Also- they say you get "limited clinical experience". What does that mean? Are you spending most of your time in lectures or?
Me too. I kind of regret applying to Yale because I feel like its a given I won't get into that one but I keep holding on to hope lol. As long as you applied early and demonstrated passion through your essays and extracurriculars you have a decent shot.I applied to Columbia, Howard, and Yale but now I'm kind of scared since I've heard those sites are extremely competitive
