They will document that they have received it, if that's what you're asking.Does anyone know if Rochester is receptive to ITA emails?

Ah ok. I'm from California and making a trip out to Albert Einstein in December. But I figure that since I've been complete since 7/4 and Rochester looks at applications on a rolling basis, I've been passed over (but obviously I can't say for sure).

Yes, at interview day it sounded like some decisions will go out in octoberIs Rochester rolling? In other words, is it better to interview earlier here?
Is Rochester actually $68,000 for out of state residents..?
That's the stat I find on major databases, but can't seem to find the actual amount on the urmc website..Wait, really?
Thank you!! But is that for instate? or is the same for both in/out of state students.

Nah I've found some schools that do have different tuitions despite being private.I'm pretty sure that for all private schools IS and OOS tuition are the same.
Like BaylorNah I've found some schools that do have different tuitions despite being private.
But this helped so thank you!
It looks like they are the same for IS and OOS!
Question on secondary--
Briefly discuss a way in which you have demonstrated a commitment to serve others.
In the above question, is it ok to describe two distinct volunteer experiences? e.g teaching underprivileged kids and volunteer work at hospital. Thanks./Quote]
Yup you got it covered. Please tell me this is not for this cycle! A bit too late imho.
I thought they mentioned we should hear something back in October. Maybe as early as Oct 15th. Last year they had decisions some on oct 15/16th.Does anybody remember from their interview day if decisions will be released on Oct. 15th? Hoping for the best from Rochester!!
I just interviewed at UR and I am really interested in the MD program. Students seem to be very happy and and really like their professors. The only thing I fear is the weather and things to do outside of school. I didn't see many bars nearby or typical hang out spots for med students. Can someone correct me? What is it like living in Rochester? I'm from California and am not used to such extreme winter climates.
For those that are interested in my stats:
URM
3.85 from top 10 university
29 MCAT (P12, V6, B11)
Fair amount of research
Great letters and ECs

Interview was pretty chill. I liked it way more than I was expecting. All the students were super friendly and while we were waiting in the admissions lounge, students just kept stopping by asking us how our day was going, if we had any questions, if we needed help with anything etc etc. The interviews were super calm and conversational. During the interview, they gave me the impression (although I could be wrong) that they were already interested in giving me an admissions offer which I presume is the case for everyone (that's why you received the interview invitation after all). The ethical group discussion was very low-key. Sat around and everyone took turns sharing their thoughts on the pretty standard ethical scenario. Can't really think of anything I disliked. Seems like a great place to be a medical student. I stayed with a student host, which was also great.
Congrats!!! When did you interview if you dont mind me asking? Hoping to hear from Rochester soon as it is my first choice!
Thanks and congrats again!! So incredible
Accepted this morning via email and I interviewed 9/03. I do know some people who interviewed later in September and haven't heard back yet. Anyone know what this means?
Same here..Congrats! I was wondering the same thing about interviewing in mid september and not hearing back yet. Do you think they will send out more emails today?
Sorry if this has been mentioned but does anyone know of any affordable hotels in the area near the medical school? Thanks!
Hey guys I will be interviewing here on 10/29. I have a question about the 4 experiences you have to put down on the interview page in the portal: how specific were you guys when selecting activities? Im not sure whether to put down for example, physician shadowing, since i have shadowed different types of doctors or they want something more specific
anybody know from last year what how many students were interviewed and how many were accepted ?
38% those arent great odds but could be worse. i wonder how much the interview weighs in or if its just a supplement to your overall stats.I think they said usually ~600 interviewed/ ~230 accepted/100 spots
edit: 600
38% is pretty dope... compare that to 10% at Pitt and 15% at NYU.
I heard 230 of ~600 from the mouth of Dr John Hansen, Associate Dean of Admissions on my interview day. =) I wrote it down.Where did you get those numbers? I subscribe to US News and World Report and have completely different numbers for all three schools. Trust me, it's not that bad.

Yeah it seems ridiculous because it's not even true. Pitt has a 41% post interview acceptance rate!I guess i was comparing U of R to suny upstate. i think at upstate it was about 750 interviewed and 400 acceptances. the 15% acceptance rate at pitt or nyu seems ridiculous after interviewing. makes it seem like they dont really want most of the applicants and waste their time interviewing

Pittsburgh (according to USNWR):
