2015-2016 Ohio State University Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
thanks for clarifying, your reply was what I was expecting since I wasn't familiar with tOSU Medpath program. As with everything at Ohio State the program seems very well thought out.
 
I didn't submit my secondary because I thought it was too late, but I keep getting e-mails to turn it in. Should I do it? Or do they know its too late but just want me to pay the fee... :/

You'll never know unless you try
 
Just wanted to say thanks to everybody that posts on these threads. Its great when we can post good news or accomplishments but I know its hard sometimes to write about disappointments (even anonymously), especially as pre-meds who are used to being the best at practically everything :banana:. I got deferred earlier this week and while it is not the news I was hoping to hear, I am hopeful because of what others have posted on here @rsrs @Rainbow Zebra . Were still in this @cactusinmyhead @Amelie. @starlite911 !!!

Edit: PS back to living that "continually refreshing my inbox" life ...hahaha

Aww what a sweet post!!! I am hopeful about OSU. It's still my favorite school I've interviewed at and I'd probably trade both my acceptances for an acceptance here!!!

We interview through the end of March. You literally have a 0% chance if you don't submit the app, so what have you got to lose by submitting it besides the app fee?

Can't win if you don't play the game.

Id still submit. I submitted mine late October and got an invite this week!
 
Anyone know what grade constitutes a reassessment of my offer of admission?

I don't plan to do poorly (does anyone really plan to do that...) but it would make me a lot less worried if I didn't have imminent rejection over my head.

I've never heard of someone getting their offer of admissions rescinded for a bad grade.... What would cause you to make that assumption?
 
I mean I have anxiety about it. I've been gone so much this semester my grade in my chem class may or may not be in jeopardy (Read: I could get a B/B-).

That's not a killer is it...

No, but you thinking that getting a B in a class would be grounds for rescinding an admissions offer might be...

Relax dude, enjoy the rest of college. A letter grade of B is not even remotely close to being "in jeopardy". Let's not be melodramatic now.
 
II this morning! I was not expecting to get one from here, but it is great! IS, LizzyM 68
 
I received a call today that I am invited for an interview because they have an opening on Wednesday! (I am busy and cannot get there) But my status has not changed and I have not gotten an email to schedule for the next opening, I believe she said January. Anyone else receive a call like this and not get a status change?

No but if you want to call them back and have them call me, I'll go - 419.555.0626
 
Anybody else on "hold for information?" I've had that status since the end of July, called them immediately and supplied the information they thought was missing (which actually was in my application already) and since then zero news.

I called back and she said they only send II 5 weeks in advance. I didn't schedule mine yet because I'll be receiving the formal invite in a week or so (5 weeks from Jan) so you could possibly get one too! I only know I got an II cause they called if not I would be in same boat 🙂

I got mine a couple days ago for 3 weeks from now... Just saying
 
Does anyone know if there is a facebook page for accepted students?
 
for those who have been accepted how long did it take to hear your decision?
 
First II of the season here this morning! Complete early August, IS (OSU alum), non-trad, low LizzyM around 62/63, lots of clinical experience over the years. So pumped, I had given up hope.

Congrats! I'm in a very similar boat and remaining hopeful. I wish you the best of luck!
