Nope, not yet. I think the letter said the Technical Requirements and Campus Preference email would come "in a week." When that is I don't know. Probably tomorrow.For those accepted, did u receive the email implying acceptance yet?

I got that email just now, but I haven't received any letter indicating acceptance or rejection. I'm so confused
I interviewed on Feb 13, btw.
Oh gosh ok I interviewed Feb 13 and I havent received anything yet..Does anyone know when/if they are meeting again and when more letters would be sent out?
Does anyone know when they start giving out financial aid awards?
I just withdrew my acceptance. Good luck to all of you who are still waiting to hear! Also, please lose to Marquette in the Elite 8 to help my bracket.
Hey all, I was wondering if anyone here (whether pre-med and knowledgeable on the campuses or MS1/MS2) can help me understand the big differences between campuses. I have already done some research on the various websites, but I just can't seem to find a thread or web page that has a nice summarized commentary from past students that reflects on what they liked about the campus and what they didn't like.
I have interviewed at Gary this year, Indianapolis last year, and visited Fort Wayne just last weekend, and since the lottery system this year is either Indy or regional campus I am thinking of selecting the regional campuses because I want control over which regional campus for sure.
I have seen about how only 2 campuses I believe use PBL maximally (Gary and...Muncie?) and how Bloomington teaches its courses over 1 year as opposed to a few of the campuses having block scheduling. But has anyone heard about the USMLE Step 1 scores each campus generates for example?
My friend told me Fort Wayne and West Lafayette have generated the highest Step 1 scores recently but I don't know if he can corroborate that with a credible source, unless professors have knowledge of these stats and would of course let their classes be aware so they could sell the campus to incoming students.
Before I get blasted- obviously I'm not talking about "Indianapolis is so much fun" etc. etc. (although obviously as a modern human being it would be nice to not live in a complete ghost town)
Sorry for the long rant, just to clarify I'm wondering if you guys can help me with things like:
1) USMLE scores
2) Library resources/facilities
3) Student-professor ratio/relationship
4) How well each campus prepares students for rotation (...should I be posting this in the Medical forums?)
Thanks everyone!
When I interviewed at Gary they said they had the highest Step 1 scores
Sent from my MB855 using SDN Mobile
When I interviewed (at Indy), the interviewer told me that USMLE scores are pretty much the same across the board at all campuses.
For more info, I'd check out msa.indiana.iu.edu/campus-specific which has a link to a PDF which has curriculum differences as well as some student perspective. There are also a lot of subpages with more info on each campus. Worth checking out, though I'm not sure it has everything you are looking for.
Does anyone know when they'll announce the lottery results for the Indianapolis campus?
I asked the admissions office this yesterday. I was told mid-May, which seems really late, and I mentioned that I had heard from last years students that they found out at the end of April to which she said it could be then, it just depends when the class is "full." There is no exact date. She said it could even be after the May 15 deadline. Anyway, I'm hoping to hear toward the end of the month.Does anyone know when they'll announce the lottery results for the Indianapolis campus?
I also heard that centers like Fort Wayne direct resourse to students from their area to get them to stay 3rd and 4th year. Did you hear anything about that?
From the interview day, I got that they interview their top candidates first and then move along the list. They said that if we did not hear from them that meant that we were passed along for the next review date and that if we didn't hear again for some time that just mean that we got passed along to the next date again. From this I assume that no they do not review all candidates again and again, they do it in order of competitiveness or something like that. However, I am not sure if at this point they have that many candidates left to review so I assume that they must get through all of them, but that is just speculation. Good luck!Question, does the committee go over the files (and any new updates, etc) of everyone who hasn't been accepted each month? Or only a portion each month?
OOS here and interviewed in November... I've pretty much given up hope on getting in to IU but it would be nice to at least hear something! Anyone know when we will either hear yay or nay for sure?
I selected the Indy Lottery , a student that went to my highschool went to fort wayne and said that the opportunities and campus is sparse.
1. really bad athletic and workout areas; hard to stay healthy
2. no place to study, the library is the same size as the bathroom
3. no on campus cafeteria, taco bell is the cafeteria; hard to stay healthy
4. 60 students and not alot of opportunities away from the classroom unless you consider ringing the bell for salvation army a "community service" learning opportunity.
5. very dictate program, no electives, go here, do this, do that
6. schedule "student learning time" is always taken up to accomodate doctors who miss teir lectures so it hard to schedule outside learning opportunities.
Got the Indy campus!
Does anyone know how the second chance lottery works? I actually like the regional campus I was assigned so I don't want to risk going for Indy again if it means I could get stuck in Evansville or Gary in the process. If we lose the second lottery do we still keep our original campus assignments?
I just got put in Evansville...what things have you heard? I am strongly considering second chance lottery.
Evansville was just completely on the other side of the state from me so the distance was just annoying to me and I wasn't particularly interested in the whole rural medicine (although just because that's what the campus is good for doesn't mean that's what you're locked into)
Oh okay thanks. I have heard it is very disorganized there so I am a bit concerned. I am hoping my chances of getting Indy through second chance isn't TOO bad.
Question: If you decide to stay at the satellite campus for 3rd and 4th year, can you do some of your rotations at Indy or another school? Is that allowed? Thanks in advance.
Question, does the committee go over the files (and any new updates, etc) of everyone who hasn't been accepted each month? Or only a portion each month?
