2015-2016 University of Texas - Houston Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Congratulations to everyone who just just accepted! Please I have a question about the pre-entry program offered by UT Houston and BCM. I just got accepted to participate in the program, can anyone who attended or knows someone who attended the program give me pros and cons of participating in this program? Thanks!
 
Any more information regarding scholarships?
 
Any more information regarding scholarships?
I called - they won't be finished deciding until the summer, though some people have already heard. I was also told "don't count on a scholarship for funding."
 
My friend just got in off the waitlist! He is IS and interviewed on October 21st!
 
Has anyone called or emailed the Dean to discuss the waitlist? I read that if you want to go to a medical school that is what you are supposed to do, but I have no idea how to go about it without being an annoyance.
 
Any OOS waitlist movement?

Yes friend was accepted 5/9/2016. He was OOS, however he got official TX residency only days before, so I'm not sure if McGovern made the change and that's how he got in. He interviewed 12/10/2015.
 
When is the last day that you can hear back if you are already accepted at another school?
After June 1 you can't be offered a spot by another Texas school if you already hold a spot. After June 1 those with no offers have a chance up until med school orientation begins (dates vary by school)
