I wouldn't think that'd be a problem as long as you explained it to them in the interview.Interview as well! I have a small dilemma though, and would appreciate a bit of help. Most of my secondary questions address the notion that I would want to serve in the Public Health Service. However, on further speculation, I realize many of the things that I wanted to do( overseas global health work, infrastructure building and primary/preventive care) would be better done with the Army rather than the PHS( which tend to either do CDC research or IHS). Thus, I was wondering if I should list the Army as my number 1 choice of service, despite my having secondary questions that solely attest to my interest in the Public Health Service? I also heard it was quite a bit less competitive than PHS, which is a bonus, as I am very committed to this track and would love to be a military doctor. Thank you!
Should I expect a rejection now if I was completed on ~07/14 and they review applications as they are received? To clarify, I emailed a confirmation request and was told that my secondary was received and my AMCAS was verified. Sorry, feeling quite neurotic and USU is my top choice.
Congrats!Just got a II for September 28! Submitted 7/20, Complete 8/14.
Got a two-part email! They choose your interview date but you can reschedule it if needed. I think they had about 4 interview dates per month?Congrats!
Are they sending IIs over e-mail or reaching out over the phone?
Hi everyone! How long does it take for your application to be complete? Submitted my secondary during the first week of August.
EDIT: Finished all the paperwork for interview day (there's so much, welcome to the military), all that's left is prepare and wait for Sept. 7th!
Yo Aaron, I hate you being a Chicago kid, but I was just wondering where you found a checkoff list for all the paperwork? I feel like I have it all done (except for the 21 pages of contact info) and am just paranoid I'm missing something else. Any help would be appreciated. See you on the 7th where I may bring Shea McClellin back to re-injure you.
There's an "Interview Day Checklist" on the interview page for everything you need to bring with you, though that doesn't include the things that need to be done in advance.
Hey guys. For those interviewing on Sept. 7th, did you get a confirmation email of any sort after submitting the Base Access SECNAV form? I submitted mine on 8/9 and haven't received a follow up about it.
hopefully you'll join us here next year and have to fill it out all over again with even more information.The security form took longer than the time it took to apply here

It was the same for me. If it helps, you can use the same person for "someone who knows you at this address" for all the ones in the same region. i.e. I used a friend from college for the dorm address and two apartment addresses. But definitely keep a copy of this on hand--you fill it out for interviews, take it by security for them to see if there are any concerns, and then if you get accepted, have to fill out an online version around May. If you don't have the paper copy still, it's quite a pain.It's going to take me forever to put in my residences for the last 7 years.... I can't believe they won't let me use my permanent home residence. Have literally 10 addresses to put in.
last week I got an email from the admissions committee asking me to explain why I had a subsection <125. Better than an outright rejection I suppose. Anyone else get any individual questions from them?

totally agree! I submitted a quality response later that day.Hi, third-year student here. The additional questions are usually a good sign! They are making the effort to obtain more information about your application. Your answer wording will be important, and you should get back to them ASAP for best chances at an interview slot.
For the secondary essays, do you think it is fine to just say "USUHS" when I am referring to the school?
You get internet access there? hahaHey all! I'm about to be an MS1 at USUHS. Navy student, currently at Officer Development School (ODS). If you have any questions about the application process, interview, second look, the school, ODS, etc...I'm happy to help!
is your 3rd and 4th year being spent/going to be spent outside of USUHS?
Depends is the best way to answer this. MS2s will get lottery times to choose rotation sites. Depending on some luck and planning you can stay around the Capitol Region for most of 3rd/4th years or not. I spent 3-4 weeks out of this year at USUHS and that was only for testing and training purposes.
I'm guessing West coast is popular? That also must means the campus is mainly MS1 and MS2?
Mostly, yes. As Lobster described above we're spread across the country for clerkships starting in January of MS2 year. My current rotations are in the MD/VA region, San Antonio, and Hawaii. We return to campus every 3 rotations for a week of written/practical exams followed by a week of leave/vacation. 4th year is a mix of interview rotations, electives, and required sub-internships that we will be scheduling shortly.@purplefrog13 what was your mindset behind doing Navy?
