2016-2017 Loma Linda University Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
A bit excited at the moment. How long does it take for them to get back with rejections and acceptances?

No rejections until almost summer.
Acceptances on third Thursday/Friday of each month (usually).

Does anyone know if there is a deposit to hold your seat after acceptance? I got an email but did not see anything about a deposit.

Also, does anyone know if LLU has scholarships? They seemed very vague in this regard during the interview.
 
Hey, does anyone know if LLU accepts updates post interview? And if so, what email? Thanks!
 
does anyone know if the school has a post-interview acceptance?

can't believe i might find out this thur/fri....ready for my first acceptance PLEASE!!
 
What are the statues of their accepted students?
 
Still have my fingers crossed for an II. Any chance this late in the game?
 
So should people be hearing back today or tomorrow?

many people get accepted between january - april. considering that applicants are interviewed starting in august (for early decision), patience my friend.

Does anyone know when scholarship offers go out?
I filled out my financial aid study super early and received an email that we would know by the latest in June. I'm also curious! I don't even know if they offer scholarships.

I know they offer some scholarships (I know of one M1 who is there on a full ride and another who received a smaller amount), but I didn't know when they offered those. Is it just me, or does June seem really late?

Do you know what the "full ride" scholarship is (or can you find out)? I only know of the MD-PhD route for that level of funding, not any scholarships handed out to MD-only students.

I agree, I want to know now lol. It's just a bit stressful wondering how much loan money I'll have to come up with :whistle:

I don't know much about the scholarship, but I know that he got one and that he's not the only one. He's a regular MD student. I'm not sure how many they give out or what he did to get it. Basically, I'm very little help, sorry.
 
Hello! After reading everyone's comments, I'm still unsure whether writing a letter of intent or interest to LLU will help me out or not? Has anyone submitted one and received any kind of response?? Tips? LLU is my top choice and it's terrifying not to have heard back from them yet. Any help would be much appreciated!! :hello:
