2014-2015 New York Medical College Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Can someone post a link for the most recent update for the cost of attendance ? I have searched all over their website but cannot find it!
 
Finally rejected pre-interview! I was waiting so long after being put on hold way back in August lol.
 
hey guys i'm applying next cycle and wanted to ask u guys a quick question.
is this school strict about the non-science professor letter? or did any of you replace it with one from your employer/volunteering supervisor/doctor/etc?

I did not have a letter from a non-science professors and got an interview. However, it seems that the non-science letter guideline may not apply for committee letters. Like the previous commenter said, you should probably ask the admissions office about this.

I'm in completely the same boat. I hope you got accepted to that last one though!
 
I was waitlisted here, but I'm withdrawing my name. Hopefully one of you gets the spot! Best of luck!
 
for those of you getting WL, how did you all feel the MMI went?

Honestly thought this was one of my better interviews. I felt I connected with all but one of my interviews and enjoyed the MMI format.
 
Waitlisted a while back, but a doctor offered to write me a letter of recommendation. Any thoughts on how to send it in/the weight of a letter at this time?

according to GynGyn, the impact of a new letter of rec at this point is extremely small, if anything.

The Admissions Committee has carefully reviewed your application for admission to New York Medical College. We regret we are not able to
offer you a place in the class entering in August of 2015.

Acceptance to the School of Medicine is highly competitive. This year our program received more than 13,000 applications to ultimately seat a class of 195. Applicants are subject to a holistic review of their full credentials including a careful examination of their academic preparation
(MCAT and GPA) as well as the quality of their foundational experiences which we consider to be important for a future career in medicine.
The Admissions Committee does not feel your credentials meet this threshold at this time.

Students who may not be initially successful in gaining acceptance to medical school often re-apply. If you plan to do so, we encourage you to
carefully assess which parts of your application might be strengthened such as improving your MCAT scores, enrolling and excelling in graduate
or post-baccalaureate courses, participating in medically-related and/or research activities as well as community service of all kinds. It is
strongly suggested you speak with your pre-med advisor or other faculty who know you, and with whom you have had recent contact. These
individuals are in the best position to offer you advice.

We thank you for your specific interest in New York Medical College and extend to you our best wishes for the future.
 
I GOT IN!!!!!!! After two waitlists and a million rejections this acceptance is just....surreal. I'm going to be a doctor!!!! And I won't have to retake my soon-to-be-expired MCAT!

Enough of my flailing, here's the important stuff: interviewed 4/16, LizzyM 70, OOS.

Yeah I just received a Pre-II rejection. I was on hold since October. I didn't like their rejection letter either. It would have been better to omit the phrase that they don't believe my credentials are good enough for medicine. Apparently, a top 20 school thinks otherwise so suck it.

I so wanted to send a snarky response being like, "Um, actually I've been accepted to 2 better med schools, but thanks for being so pompous enough to think I'm not fit to be a doctor."

I understand your frustrations, but some of us have been accepted and are glad to have been, so if you guys can desist from diminishing that for your own ego, that'd be greeeaaat.

Nowhere in my statement about their extremely rude rejection letter did I make any kind of remark about other applicants, accepted or otherwise. Pipe the F down.
