Same thing happened to me. Email Ms. Walk and she will forward you all the docs and information. Congrats to your daughter!
Guys I got IN! Thank you for all your prayers and I will keep everyone who are waiting in mines. Hang on there guys and I hope everyone on this thread really join us this July.
Hi, balder! Just wanted to say, you'll never know unless you try. As long as you have a background and passion for serving disadvantaged communities, you should give HUCM a shot. Of course, grades matter but if you have shown significant improvement and a consistent upward trend, I feel like you are making a statement that you are persistent and determined. If grades are not too hot, consider post bac or a special masters program. Applying to med school is very demanding and you really want to go through the process just once. Therefore, make sure you are presenting yourself at your best. Hope this was helpful. PM me if you need any more info and I'll try my best to answer your qs. Good luck, balder!
we probably wont hear anything till at least after may 15, bc thats when accepted students everywhere can only hold a single acceptance, and spots at howard open up like crazy. So i guess we keep waiting till then. I'm kinda worried bc i emailed ms walk and my interviewer and neither responded....but thats also probably pretty expected.
does anyone know how many people are confirmed and going? apparently the fb group count isnt accurate bc the current 1st/2nd years join it to get a preview of the incoming class, lol
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I WISH YOU GOOD SUCCESS and Happiness IN LIFE!
I am new to sdn and I am delighted to find out that I am a part of such a supportive incoming class. I interviewed on 3/29 and I was accepted via email on 4/29. I was wondering if any other recent acceptees (ie. since 4/29) have received any information such as financial aid forms, "official" acceptance letter, ect in the mail? Just wanted to see if I was alone before I emailed Ms. Walk. Thanks in advance for any help.
if there are 103 people on the HUCM 2015 facebook group....does that mean there are only 12 remaining seats opened? How about those that dont have face book....YIKES

Congrats! I was accepted the same day. I had to leave the state for work and wanted to get my deposit in on time, so I asked Ms. Walk about them last Wednesday. Ms. Jones sent me a copy via email. I'm not home so I can't tell you if I've received my docs. I would ask Ms. Walk if you are concerned.

Hey everyone,
I just thought I would let you all know that I received the " I regret to inform you that..." e-mail today. This was pre-interview. Although I am disappointed that I didn't get into Howard, I know that God is guiding and will continue to pursue medicine through other avenues. I will do whatever gets me there.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for all of your prayers and support. I continue to be amazed with the sense of unity on this forum, I'll never forget it. May you all be greatly blessed, and I wish you the absolute best in your academic endeavors.

hey i got this email that says i've been placed on a "super alternate list"
the email reads:
I am writing to inform you that the Admissions Committee has considered your application for admission to the 2011 entering class of the College of Medicine. The committee believes that you have the ability and drive to succeed at Howard University College of Medicine. However, due to the large number of students currently accepting our offer of admission, you have been placed on the Super Alternate list.
Applicants from the Super Alternate list will be considered for positions between now and the beginning of freshman orientation. For this reason, it is important that you keep your application current and that you forward transcripts of grades for courses completed during the academic year and summer sessions. Be certain that we know how to reach you immediately.
Also, should you wish to withdraw your name from possible consideration (for whatever reason, but especially if you have made a final decision to attend another school) please inform us of your decision immediately.
Final status letters for Strong Alternates will be mailed NOT LATER THAN the end of Freshman Orientation (JULY 26, 2011).
has anybody else received this? is there a difference between the super alternate list and a regular waitlist? how soon do you think the turnaround is for 'superalternate list'?

mannnnnnnn I had prayer this morning in order to stop me from biting my nails lol. For those of us still waiting to hear, I hope you are waiting more gracefully than I am and to everyone else have a geat week!!
@SuperMOMMD...me too, but I have to remember to trust God!!! I have been trying to contact Howard for the last 2 weeks (during the specified times and on the specified days) to no avail. I always get the recorded voicmail dating 10/29/2010. I know that they are pretty busy though. So, perhaps after today I'll be able to get through. God bless you sis' and keep trusting Him!
DoctorDang, thank you so much! I won't give up. Wishing you the best as well!

hey i got the same email, but did u also receive a line that said "Do not hesitate to let us know if you have questions or if you need additional information, but please do not forward unsolicited materials."
Just curious.
I thinkt he super alternate is higher than the alternate list.
I got the same email and it did include that line. It also included this:
"We know that you have been accepted to a number of schools. Congratulations ! "
I guess they personalize the emails a bit. I withdrew my application so thats one less person on the super list. Good luck to you two.

thanks for letting us know. hopefully more ppl withdraw so that means we get a better shot.
lilmoomoobean- yea i got that line too. im not sure what that means though....
i dont even know what to do, are u starting the reapplication process? or are you waiting for now to hear something?
Yea I am reapplying again because you dont know for sure if you are gonna get into howard or not. Also, I do not know what the chances of super alternate or alternate list is...(FYI I am on the alternate, therefore I dunno what the difference is). From what I understand, I thought super alternate meant that you are at a higher priority than alternate. I cant just bank on an admission like that, soooooo im gonna reapply real early and see where I can get in

hey everyone i got the super alternate email as well. first off, way2goyo that was pretty considerate of you to withdraw, i speak for all of us that are really hoping to go to howard, we appreciate it.
i heard that there is still a decent chance that super alternates get in, so i am still hopeful. of course im praying EVERYDAY that i get in lol, and if you guys can do the same that would be awesome.
any advice from anyone?
