THANK GOD! I was accepted this afternoon by email as well!

Keep praying and be patient everyone! It's not over till it's over!

Just wanted to say congrats again to everyone accepted to the Howard family! I will surely miss HUCM! Those 4 years really fly and were some of the best of my life!

Hello all!
I just have a quick question...
Is it a wrap for those of us who haven't heard back? I called the office yesterday and I got the voicemail saying that the class was full and those that haven't heard will get the final email (rejection). I know that some of you all are saying that it's not too late, but that message was pretty telling 😕
Can anyone give me some insight? I am so sad 😕

I too called yesterday and was told that the class was full. They said that at this point they will only be taking one applicant per week off of the waitlist...so I guess that adds up to be about 3-4 spots left since orientation is in 4 weeks. So I guess there is still a slight chance?

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much! I need to start working on my AMCAS just in case everything falls through 🙁

 

[HowardDoc]

if anyone has already been accepted and is looking for a roommate please pm me! I am worried about finding someone on such short notice. Also, I am so sorry to hear that there only a few spots remaining everyone, my hopes go out to all of you.

This news gives us some hope👍. I'm so nervous, anxious and worried if this doesn't go through, though...

I also called yesterday and was told there is no internal ranking of remaining candidates (between all the Super Alternates and Alternates). I guess this means they can take anyone from either of the 2 lists and that there is no preference given to Super Alternates at this point.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF US...I hope everyone waiting on this forum gets in

Hi All,

Can someone please PM me the Facebook link for class of 2017? Thanks

 

[vilae]

If someone could please PM me the Class of 2017 Facebook link too, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks.

Anyone? I was accepted just recently, and I am desperate to find housing information. Ms. Walk is on vacation for several days, and I have been unable to reach Ms. Jones. I would very much appreciate it if someone could PM the Class of 2017 Facebook link.

Thanks.

Same here! If anyone can be so kind and PM us all the link, we would greatly appreciate it!

I'm still waiting, but I know that if you go to Facebook and type "Howard University College of Medicine 2017" in the search box, then you'll find the page. Then click on join group. I think the page admin then has to accept you.

Hope this helps and please pray for us still waiting

 

[adt1984]

Still waiting with you! Hopefully something will work itself out!

Hey everyone! I'm a rising second year at HUCM and just wanted to say congrats to all of the incoming students! Howard is truly a one-of-a-kind institution and you are going to LOVE it here. I just sent the facebook group link to a couple of you guys. If anyone else needs the link just let me know. Please enjoy the rest of your summer break and I can't wait to meet you all next month!

Also, to everyone still waiting, don't throw in the towel just yet. A few students in my class got accepted during orientation week last year. Good luck you guys!

Has anyone heard anything this week? It's Friday, and I called in, but no one picked up. Did anyone get through to speaking with someone on admissions? If so, any updates?

Has anyone who was admitted mid-late June been admitted to the Facebook group yet? I'm still waiting being added so that I can check out housing options.

I would appreciate any information that any of you could provide. Thanks.

I know it's the second week of July already, but I want to wish those who are still waiting the best of luck. I know how it feels to wait too, and it's not easy. Hang in there!

Most unfortunately, things seem very bleak at this point...my prayers go out to all of us waiting. May God grant us a miracle.

Anyone else get this email:

if you received an email in the last few minutes, it should read "not selected" for admissions I truly apologize for this mistake.

It was my mistake, not Dr. Blands.

Any my apologies.

Sincerely,
Judith M. Walk, Director

+1 They finally sent me my rejection email after all this time. It's funny! Good luck everyone else though. Orientation starts for me in less than 2 weeks.
