Did anyone else get WashU's little mail package with the Study of Medicine magazine in it? I have to say, I am becoming more and more impressed with this school.
Wash U has no essay, so immediately, for that one.
As for the rest, I think the consensus is "ASAP without compromising the quality of your essays."
The sooner you turn it in, the sooner they can review your file...

but dont they wait for the LOR's to arrive first?
hey,
would washu not look at my app if my secondary is turned in much much later after i've received it? thanks. (i know the deadline seems to say 4 weeks after receipt so i was wondering how strict this deadline was.)
Okay so I don't know the photo etiquette for secondary applications. Today I took a picture of myself in a passport type style, and uploaded it. I was wearing a T-shirt.
Do you think that's acceptable, or should I take a photo in a shirt and tie?
Go ahead and tell me I'm paranoid, because I agree. But, I had to appease my OCD and post this anyway.
Congrats for being complete!
Any idea when they start sending out interview invites, and when interviews begin? (Care to e-mail them to ask? If not, I'll do it - I already did it for UCSF and Hopkins, what's a couple more schools, 😉)

This is so odd. My letters have been available since 6/18 and even received by AMCAS... yet WashU still doesn't say they have mine...

Seraph524 and other MSTP-ers, this question is for you! 🙂
I'm applying for Wash U MD/PhD, and I'm confused as to how to list my LORs on the secondary.
There's a section in the MD portion to list up to 4 letters from teachers/research mentors. Then there's a section in the MSTP portion in which we're required to list all of mentors that we mentioned in our AMCAS research experience essay.
In the first list (the regular MD part), should we include research mentors who will be included in the second list (the MSTP part) or would that be redundant? Are all of the research mentors' letters given to the MSTP committee also reviewed by the med school committee?

I wonder if they only mark applicants complete on one particular day of the week. I have checkmarks next to everything, but I'm still incomplete 😕
No interviews until October anyway, though. 🙁
If you have already completed you education, if your college or graduate education was interrupted, or if you do not plan to be a full-time student during the current year, describe in chronological order your activities during the time(s) when you were not enrolled as a full-time student.

Do we just list? Or do we write in paragraph form?

did anyone list their SAT/ACT scores? I'm not sure of the sub-scores when I took them.
also, should i send in washu secondary if my primary amcas application hasn't been verified yet?
last question, who specifically did you get to sign the certification form? At my school, there is a dean for everything (college, dept., etc)
anyone else still waiting for them to process your LORs? i submitted mine through virtual evals on 7/10, and they still haven't been marked as received.
i noticed that the instructions page says "All evaluations should be mailed to:" does that mean they only accept LORs through regular mail? i tried emailing and calling them, but neither have been successful.
