Hi all,
I wanted to reach out as it has been a couple of weeks since my last post. I just returned from the AAMC National Conference in Boston. It was great to meet some of my colleagues, learn some new ideas, and, most importantly, our school participated in the AAMC Minority Student Medical Career Fair. A highlight of any day of mine is when I can meet potential candidates and students just like you!
I have seen a few themes developing since my last post. This has included where we are in the admission cycle and how many interview seats we have left to offer this season.
As for interviews, this cycle we have 330 interview seats available and have offered 205 interviews to date. With that, we have 125 interviews left to extend.
As for extending offers, we have made 53 to date! It is a great group of candidates and we hope each will choose to study at COM-P.
As for those on hold, I want to pass along that this truly is a positive. The Admissions Committee is heavily weighing your application and – hopefully – you will get a phone call from me soon extending you an offer! The next time I will be calling candidates will be this upcoming Monday, November 13th.
As for those denied, I understand that it certainly wasn’t the news you wished to hear. Hopefully hearing early in the season will allow you to adjust your strategy as needed and – in the end – get an offer to one of your top programs!
One other item our team wants to bring to your attention. Some of you have reached out to us as you haven’t yet received a secondary application to date. Email domains such as Hotmail/AOL/MSN can reject our emails so be sure to check your spam email folder. If you do not see anything, you are welcome to reach out to us directly at 602.827.2005 or

Great luck moving forward and I hope to speak with many of you soon!!
All my best,
Dr. Fogerty
