It’s funny, but ridiculous how they make these lists and now they uncertain of everything. I’ll call them today.
One of my friends got accepted off the strong alternate waitlist earlier this week so I guess the WL is still moving, albeit rather slowly.

Wow!! Congrats to them!
Guys I just called and sadly I don’t have better news. I asked questions like how many people are left on the lists, how much movement has happened, how many seats, if any, are currently open, if everyone on the strong waitlist are expected to get in. They just kept giving answers like.. “that’s inside information, sorry I can’t tell you that” but “the movement has been sought of slpw lately, but just hang in there”
Aaahhh!!!
Aaahhh!!!
Thankfully, yes. 🙂
For those accepted, have you been contacted about financial aid information yet?
I contacted Dr. Aitcheson a week ago and she said "We are still setting up the system for the 18-19 financial aid packaging". Based on this statement, it probably means it's still in the works. I got accepted on 02/23/18 and I still have not yet received my financial aid info. Dr. Aitcheson is responsive to her emails, so if you have a financial aid question, feel free to message her. She seems really nice!
Just received an official "we are no longer extending interview dates for admission to the 2018 entering class"
lol, I got accepted else where, but thanks for the notification, Howard. 😀

Called yesterday. They told me that there will likely be no more movement on the waitlist.
can someone give me instructions on how to apply for the bs/md program? i know you apply as a freshman on the common app, but there nowhere to indicate that i want to be considered for the dual degree? do i have to apply to med school as well or?
BS/MD students typically apply to Howard’s College of Arts and Sciences as a Biology or Chem major and interview to be accepted to the program. You won’t apply for med school until your sophomore year of college. Contact Howard’s Pre-professional Office for more info on the process: [email protected]
are these the only 4 questions
Can we really join Greek life (the black sororities) as Med Students in this med school (aka, delta, etc. ) ?
would you still recommend us to attend howard?
Nah. I think there’s a Kappa grad chapter but everything else is for undergrads. Look into some of the grad chapters in the area.
Hi
For those who were accepted ( especially those who had an early interview in SEPT/OCT, what was your GPA and MCAT.
Just trying to gauge my chances. Received and II today. I know early is a good sign, just trying to gather information.
I have 3.8c. 3.69 s. 504 low cars

Hi, does anyone know how Howard feels about non-trads? It's been 14 years since i graduated college so obviously i don't have any science profs to write LORs for me. All 3 are from MDs I've worked with over the past 17 years that can speak to my experience. Just wondering if it's worth doing a secondary??

I would call them and speak to someone in admissions.
I've decided to apply to HUCOM this year and am wondering if you guys have heard what the process would be like for those applying this late. By most standards, I am not an extremely competitive applicant. I will have my first semester's transcript from my master's program in December and I am re-taking my MCAT in January (497 was the last score). GPA is standard (possibly below standard since I just realized they include my community college transcript from HIGH SCHOOL - in which I earned and overall 2.5 GPA).
