2014-2015 Univeristy of South Alabama Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Checking in to say that I will be giving up my spot at South very soon as I gained acceptance into a medical school closer to home today. I wish you all the best in getting accepted off the waitlist!
 
No, but since UAB put outs tier's that may speed things up a little bit?

Hello I am applying to this medical school as well as others this cycle. I am currently participating in the University of South Alabama Summer research Program. I just completed my master's in Biomedical science. I am also teaching a summer class. I am taking the 2015 MCAT in July but I also have a pretty high old MCAT but not necessarily competitive as well as GPA. I am hoping to get into a higher percentile with this new MCAT. Any advice far as application process?
 
The waitlist has moved. Some have received letters of acceptance to south Alabama.

i guess that's good news. any idea of when movement has happened? I think they need a big UAB push for their waitlist to move faster. But this seems incredibly slow.

Yea, some movement would be awesome, haha
Anyone hear anything?
 
To those who have been accepted,
Allow me to expound on how great taking a year off is. You are able to pursue interest that otherwise you may never get a chance to. Hell, I took a year and am writing this while working a public health job in the Caribbean! It worked for me, it can work for you. Just imagine yourself on a beach, not a care in the world except for all the infectious diseases... So go ahead and drop those acceptances and take a year; find yourself!
Signed,
Those on the alternate list

(but seriously, congratulations to everyone who's gotten in so far!)
