Hey guys I have a quick question: anyone know if lecture videos are recorded at this school?

We use a program called Tegrity which links audio to power point slides. It's pretty cool actually.

Traffic rules suggest April 30 if you are holding multiple acceptances. I think everything there after is 2 week if I'm not mistaken.

What is the updated COA for 2015 -2016. Website is out of date and I don't have my interview package in front of me.

The updated COA for 2015-2016 is $74,778. They froze tuition this year, so no major increase.

Thanks @Dr.Mac & @HaitianDrSoph!

For those with scholarships did you apply or did they just notify you of being chosen?

They just notified me, it was out of nowhere. I thought it was because I had done the Fafsa...

Did this happen after or before you submitted the Health Sciences Financial Aid Application?

 

[YoSoyCasa-MD]

Did this happen after or before you submitted the Health Sciences Financial Aid Application?

A few weeks after I had completed it.

 

[HaitianDrSoph]

Thanks @Dr.Mac & @HaitianDrSoph!

I didn't specifically apply for a scholarship, but I did fill out the HSFAA form. However, I do believe that form is mandatory to complete

 

[Plutonium]

When is the first day of class?

Congrats to those offered scholarships. I'm curious; are these federal scholarships or Howard Scholarships?

[Lmeredakid]

Interviewed 4/21; Accepted 5/1. I was told on here that I shouldn't go to the 4/21 interview because their class was full and people were only being waitlisted. Goes to show you shouldn't believe everything on here. Stay positive! Good luck to you all and look forward to meeting future classmates!

I think it's more about your interview and experiences rather than stats. I'll inbox you my stats.
