Has anyone here interviewed at St. Lukes? Any medical students here to give insight into how it is. I am excited about my interview on the 14th. Really would like to know as much as possible before heading in. Thanks.
 
Does anyone know the address for thank you letters? I know they were in the folder but I lost mine and i'm nervous because my interview was more than a week ago. I sent in a hard-copy letter to the admissions office thanking my faculty interviewer but now I'm nervous. Were there email addresses in the folder?

Hey guys, just interviewed earlier today and I was wondering how many of you that have already interviewed sent thank you emails to both your faculty and student interviewers? I got the contact info for my faculty interviewer, so I will be emailing him, but my student interviewer was in a bit of a hurry, so asking him for his email slipped my mind. I'm having a hard time finding it anywhere on Temple's website, and I don't want to seem creepy or suck-uppy by hunting his email down and sending him a thank-you. Both interviews went wonderfully, very laid back and informative, and I fell in love with Temple during my interview day, so I'm really hoping for an acceptance here, and if that means asking the admissions committee to forward my thank you to the student, so be it!

Thanks in advance!
Congrats on the interview buddy!
 
II!! Interviewing December.

I'm nervous about getting there, I heard it's not that safe around the neighborhood. What do people do; is there hotels right there?
 
Does temple release decisions on oct15 or do we have to wait for snail mail?
The last few years they have done both email and snailmail on 10/16.

Most people from out of town stay in hotels in Center City and take the 15 min subway ride or a 10 min cab ride right down broad street to the school. There aren't really any hotels within walking distance to the school.

Hey guys, received an II today on the status page but didn't get an email for it yet. Apparently you can't sign up for the interview day until the email comes. Anyone know what time in the day they get sent? Also, what are the available dates looking like?

I got my emailed interview invite about 48 hours after the status change online. I received my email around 4pm EST.
Congrats on the invite!
 
Does anyone know if they will accept 8 credits of biology courses such as Anatomy Physiology I and II, in place of Intro Bio 1 and Intro Bio 2?
