Hey! I am new to the medical forum and wanted to touch bases with anyone who has interviewed on January 21st. I have sent in my background check to Meharry and just wondered how long it takes them to accept or waitlist you. It is soooo stressful waiting. :xf:

I got a letter in the mail for my acceptance and it took 4 business days for me to get the letter. Good luck!

Thank you! Really!:clap: That is so wonderful to hear. I wasn't really sure because I am waiting on the letter. Were you accepted as well?
 
I'm just being neurotic bc I got the CBC email about 10 days ago but are we POSITIVE that is means an acceptance. Don't waitlisted people also get CBC emails?

From last year's thread, no one who was waitlisted ever got CBC emails. I don't think schools get CBCs on waitlisted applicants until later in the cycle like in May.

I interviewed last week so I won't find out until either the 14th or 21st of this month.
A background check however is a 99.9% confirmation that you were accepted unless there are some legal issues or background issues to give the school pause. Welcome to medical school! 😀

It's a one year prep program sponsored by the school of medicine to which you take graduate courses to better prepare you for medical school. Its actually not a bad program because your guaranteed a seat in next years class pending you complete the program with passing marks. Its also ALOOOOT cheaper than most if not all other/outside post-bac programs.

Thanks, I will definitely keep you posted! I have a feeling this is going to be the school I (WE) will proudly call home. It just felt right during the interview day with meeting the students, fellow interviewees, and faculty along with learning the amazing story & history.

Does anyone know Mr. mosleys email address or who we need to send an LOI email to? I interviewed on Jan 24th and although Mr. Mosley said that we should hear something in 3wks and technically it has only been 2wks, I have yet to receive anything and I just want to send an email to let them know how serious I am about wanting to attend Meharry. Trying to remain calm and prayerful....

My understanding is that it is a one year program to prepare you for entrance into their medical school. Like if you successfully complete it, you're automatically guaranteed a spot in the next year's class. At least that's what I got from the overview during my interview day. So it's a very good opportunity. :luck:
 
Hey Serious7! I see that you are from Alabama. What city?🙂
 
YAY! Well DCTR2BE and Created2Excell maybe we will be seeing each other in the fall. 😍
 
Hi Guys,
Anyone has a secured an apartment in the Royal Towers and looking for a roomate?
I am looking for a meharrian to live with ... I got accepted back in November but I havent started looking for a place to live yet!
Let me know if you're in the same boat! Please, Shoot me a private message.
 
Created2Excell said:

yeah we might😀. I interviewed on Jan 24th and unfortunately I have not yet received a cbc request. Mr. Mosley said within 3wks and it has been a lil over 2wks now....sigh...I sent in a LOI to the Dean, Mr. Mosley, and Ms. Davis just to make sure they know I WANT TO GO TO MEHARRY!!! lol. I am trusting the Lord, the SOLID ROCK on which I stand and praying for the best. Congrats on your cbc request, it sounds like good news is coming your way soon😉
 
Got Accepted back in November but I still haven't received any info about a background check. 😕What should this mean to me.:scared:

Well first of all, CONGRATULATIONS!👍 But Really? That is interesting. I figured that they would want to know a background check on everyone considering you are about to be a doctor and care for others. But, I think AMCAS only does one background check to deliver to all the schools you applied to. Did you interview for any other schools?

Did you receive an acknowledgment about their receipt of the deposit you mailed in? If so, then you are all set to go. But in any event, If I were you, I'd get with with admissions staff about this - just to make sure u r not falling through the cracks...
 
Hey guys hold tight for those of you waitlisted....I had a tough time last year and things are going great this year.....Just got a background request. Where there is a will there is a way! Good luck

Congrats👍! When did you interview?
 
Hey everyone. I just withdrew today because I got an acceptance to my first choice school. Hopefully the spot goes to someone who's still waiting to hear back 🙂

Good luck to all!

I did a CBC for one other school but I just thought that each school would request it individually. Maybe not... I call tomorrow to be on the safe side tho. Thanks alot!! 😉
 
BTW guys... What do you think about Howard (HUCM) vs. Meharry (MMC) vs. Morehouse (MSM). Which would you choose if they were your only three choiceS?
