This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
II today - also for 12/2. IS verified complete secondary on 7/31. Lizzy M: 66, uGPA: 3.49, gGPA: 4.0 (masters), 510 MCAT. Bless up!
 
Sorry to hear that guys... You all seem like pretty awesome applicants, so I'm sure you'll hear back from somewhere else! Were you all complete in July? I haven't heard anything and I was complete in August
 
Rejected and complete 8/11. Best of luck to those left.
 
Rejection post secondary yesterday, OOS, complete 10/14/17. Good luck everyone!
 
ahh congrats! How did you think your interview went right after? was it stressful?

Thanks. To be honest, I thought I screwed up really badly. The school tried to keep it chill and were extremely friendly but MMIs in general are stressful.

Thanks! That is awesome to hear 🙂

Did they say that admission is rolling?
 
Does anyone know when the second round of admissions decisions comes out? Interviewed 10/7

I interviewed 10/7 as well and remember they said we would receive a call in mid-December if we are accepted!
 
Does that go for just admissions decisions or does that also include when they meet up to decide II’s?
that I am not sure, I think it's when the admissions committee meets to decide acceptances. But, it also could be meeting to decide the next round of IIs.
 
As long as you keep composure and just converse with the MMI interviewer, you will be fine.
awesome! Thanks. How did you think the second part of the interview (the traditional interview) went?
 
Was anyone else confused by there being Va Tech Carilion and Edward Via Osteopathic both affiliated with Virginia Tech?

I can't comment directly on it but I felt the same towards the trad. interview as I did the MMI, thought it went well!
 
If we haven't heard from here and have been complete since July are we a
on hold?

Edward Via is actually not affiliated with Virginia Tech, despite being in Blacksburg. Notice that there is no VT in the name and they have their own "-.edu" (whereas VTC is actually a ".vt.edu"). Their are certain partnerships between the schools, but no official affiliation.
 
It is odd that VTC is in Roanoke while VCOM is in Blacksburg but one is MD and the other DO.

This might sound dumb but because all this time I was skipping over at least one of these (probably thought they were the same) let me just make sure of all the medical schools in Virginia:

MD:
UVA
VCU
EVMS
VTC

DO:
LUCOM
Edward Via

Right?
