***Howard Hopeful****
 
Hi all, how late is too late for Howard? I'm taking a September MCAT which means technically won't get score till October.
 
Still waiting for that Secondary from Howard haha!
 
Love the DC area, hoping I get some love from Howard!

EDIT: Also found this on their website, the first Invitation to complete the HUCM secondary will be mailed on or about August 15.

Crosscheck "latest date" with school or AMCAS application service and make sure to submit application as soon as it is complete. Best of luck!

Right, they did a nice job making the process scarier lol. But I think most schools are like that, they just don't say it lol

Not too sure, because the email says "We are currently making changes to the HUCM Admissions website and to the HUCM secondary". This doesn't necessarily mean the essays but it can.

Well, you've ALMOST got a 50/50 shot if you make it to the interview round. That's gotta be good news. HAHA!

I know it's way early in the game, but, if offered an interview, how are y'all deciding which schools to fly/drive out to?

I will be attending every interview as money allows, unless I get into one of my top 5 schools early then I'll start turning II's down. HBU?

This is one of my main concern, how to decide and pay for traveling to the interview invites. I guess it might be nothing to worry about until I actually start receiving them. Other than that I'm guessing I'm going to 100% of invites unless, or up until, an in-state school (Texas) offers me an acceptance.
