Hello everyone thank you for clicking on my post! I have finished most of my secondaries and was thinking about tacking on UCSF and USC. I know they screen primaries and sending a primary to them right now wouldn't be ideal but wanted to ask if I still have a shot. I don't want to just send a...

Hi Y'all! I'm grateful to have options here but I'm honestly a bit overwhelmed trying to decide on a school, so any insight would be much appreciated! Both schools would be new environments for me although I currently live in a city. I’m not quite sure where I want to be for residency but...

Hello. Everyone! I wanted to start a thread where we can discuss USC's OTD admission questions/updates/stats for the Fall 2023 application cycle. Good luck to everyone!! Applied: Interviews: Acceptances: Waitlists: Rejections:

USC vs. Lincoln Memorial University? I am from California and I live about an hour away from USC. I am interested in specializing (perhaps OMFS or dental anesthesia) but not committed. However, this may change as I explore other options in dental school. I really want to be close to my family...

Hi all! I wanted to start a thread where we can discuss USC's OTD admission questions/updates/stats for the Fall 2022 application cycle. Good luck to everyone!!

I’m currently a 2nd year Residential Student at the USC DPT program and in my opinion the program is definitely not worth the money. Upon entering the program in the pandemic I knew we were going to be mostly online, we watch online recordings of lectures then met up for 1-2 hours for each...

I wanted to know more about the curriculum and student life. (Especially about PBL and lectures) Will we still have lectures or is everything group based learning? I have heard rumors about people not passing board exams too!

I have a list of ten schools ranked from least to most likely, I'm thinking of applying to with a 3.7 undergrad GPA. I have a few pre-reqs under my belt (Biology, Chemistry, Calculus, Statistics) but I'd mostly be relying on the program to fulfill the needed pre-reqs for medical school. I'd...

Happy weekend, everyone! I got accepted by USC and the school asked us to collect 100 anterior, 100 bicuspid, and 100 molars for practice. Have anyone really collect this many teeth before matriculation? Or the school will provide them if we don't collect enough. Thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone I am happy to inform that I got acceptance at both UCLA and USC for the Advanced Standing Program. Can you all please provide some insights on both these schools? I think both of them have nice campuses and cost similarly; however, I care more about how they conduct the clinic part...

Hi everyone, I applied to USCs post bacc program for the spring 2021 term. About a week after my interview, the admissions team informed me that they want to put my application on hold for the spring term as they would like to see me take a chemistry course and upper level math course at a...

I have an upcoming interview with USC and heard from someone that I'll be asked a series of questions and that I'll have to "do diagrams". There was emphasis placed on the importance of these diagrams, but I am unclear on what they are/what they are in response to. Can anyone explain this part...

I'm trying to compile a complete list of all the match and non-match GPR programs in LA. Here are the programs I've found so far: 1) USC 2) UCLA 3) Harbor - UCLA Medical Center 4) VA Greater LA Health Care System 5) Veterans Admin Medical Center - Sepulveda 6) Rancho Los Amigos National...

Hey guys, please help me decide whether USC or Columbia. I'm now studying in up-state New York, where have snow storms every year. I want to go to USC because of the warm weather and plenty of fun things to do. And the patient pool is big there. Obviously, the tuition is VERY expensive. My...

Hello everyone, It may seem like a long time from now, but OTCAS applications will be opening up in less than two months. I'll be starting a thread for applicants to share their stats, questions, etc. with each other as a way to (hopefully) ease some of the anxiety that comes along with this...

I am really torn... I don't strongly prefer one over the other (hence the sparse list) so your thoughts and perspectives are extremely appreciated. USC Keck Pros More robust clinical experience/students are more prepared(?) bc of LAC+USC hospital Bigger network, USC connections and all that...

I would whole heartedly appreciate any input anyone has on which of these physical therapy programs I should attend. I was accepted to USC with a 10k scholarship but of course, UCSF cheaper still, but not by much since I am out of state. They differ in about 30k for me. Any input and explanation...

Hi! As one of many currently in the OTCAS trenches, specifically USC's, I have stumbled upon an interesting question in one of USC's supplemental sections on OTCAS. The question reads, "Please list any other occupational therapy programs to which you are applying." I found this to be a bit odd...

I am in a little bit of a unique situation, so I was hoping to get some advice from anyone that might have some insight! About me; I just completed a post bacc from an ivy league school (im not sure how relevant that is, but for the sake of disclosure). My undergrad GPA is 3.7 (UCLA)...

Hi all, I trust this finds you doing well! I am a grad student at USC working toward my masters in school counseling. As part of my ethics course, I need to "critique" a school counseling (middle or high school) situation in which the counselor may have "crossed the line" ethically or...

Hey everyone! I am applying this cycle (submitting my app here soon). I was just wondering if anyone in here has applied, interviewed, or been accepted to Keck School of Medicine and would be willing to talk to me about the school, your application, and the interview! I really really want to go...

The prompt reads "Please list your professional achievements and include when and how long." Would this include undergrad scholarships? I am confused on for what they are looking.

Hi, everyone! I recently got accepted into the USC and Chapman postbac programs and will have my Cal State Fullerton and Charles Drew postbac interviews in the next couple of days. I've done a lot of digging in the forum with regard to the aforementioned postbacs but there aren't a lot of recent...

Hi all, I wanted to gather some thoughts about MFT programs at USC and Fuller Seminary. I got accepted to both of the programs and I'm pretty much struggling to decide because they both have pro and cons. USC Rossier School of Education: - top school - 2 years - around $130,000 Fuller...

I got admitted to both schools but I'm really lost between them. I have heard that USC is very disorganized in terms of the professors teaching the classes (Many resident students and PHD student teaching parts of a class with some that have barely understandable accent) Also I was told that...

Which school would you choose to attend? Any input is greatly appreciated.

I am torn between these three schools. I have created pros and cons of each school to try to help me decide. I am mostly trying to decide between USC and Midwestern. I am very much leaning to Midwestern. please share your thoughts about each school and tell me what you recommend. I greatly...

Seriously though..?

I am having a hard time understanding what it's like to be a dental student at USC. If they don't have lectures, are they always just in PBL groups every day? How do they learn new material if no professor is lecturing? Any info about USC PBL would be much appreciated / or if you are actually a...

I, as well as a few others, received an email from USC saying that I am a post-interview candidate. Does anyone have any knowledge on this type of status? They said it's not a "waitlist" because there are still spots available, but I'm wondering the chances of still getting in are. Also, if...

Hi everyone! I just thought it would be nice to have a forum for everyone who has applied for USC's 2018 program. Has anyone received their USC ID yet? And does anyone know if interviews will be conducted, and if so, when? Finally, any idea of when decision letters will go out? Lots of...

Hey guys! I know the USC DPT essay has a maximum character count of 4500, but I've written the bulk of my essay and I'm sitting at around 2000-3000 words. Anyone know if this is acceptable or if they prefer that you fill up the essay until you've reached the maximum? Also, how is everyone...

Hi, As you probably know, USC got rid of their early decision deadline. They now only have regular decision which is due November 30. Does anyone know if this means we get our acceptance letters later than before, or if we can still expect them by January/February?
