I know MUSC doesnt review OOS students until November but has any OOS heard anything yet? Love south carolina/Charleston and have family in the area so I would love to go here!

I submitted my application really early (7/13) so they could just be getting around to yours :)

On 12/1 I got an interview for December 15th. I was very surprised considering the short notice they gave me. Should I be concerned? Is anyone else interviewing on this date?
 
Any OOS applicants with no ties to SC receive II yet?

I was complete a fair amount of time after you (early October due to a September MCAT) and haven't heard anything as an IS applicant either. Patience is a virtue.

Yes. I interviewed in november. Was notified the day they said they would be making decisions. I was just a little tardy putting the news in here :)
 
Hold email today :( . I'm assuming the likelihood of being accepted now is low
 
Are we supposed to receive any more information after we submit are acceptance payment to MUSC, or do we just wait until March/April for further instruction?

I got a confirmatory email about a week after they received my deposit.
 
I am OOS for this school... If I haven't gotten an II yet, are my chances pretty much done here?

It seems interview lead times are really short at the moment. II on Sunday for the coming Friday. 5 days?! IS

When were you complete? Do you have close ties? Sorry.... Paranoid OOS here... complete since September.

I completed on 8/24/17
I have moderate ties to the state. My mom grew up, went to college, and attended a different state medical school. I visit family in South Carolina during the holidays but haven't lived in the state or anything.
In terms of stats I had a very high MCAT and average GPA when compared to the school's average from last class
 
FYI - At my interview, adcoms said they would meet again on Feb 6th to release more decisions.

About how long did it take for MUSC to charge you for the deposit? I’m going on day seven without seeing the check clear my checking account.
