What is the acronym for this school's name? BSOM? WSUBSOM?
I would go with the latter personallyWhat is the acronym for this school's name? BSOM? WSUBSOM?
I would go with the latter personally
I know that at UCLA it goes by DGSOM
Im struggling with this one too. I took a full year off to work before applications and will have two years in between graduating college and matriculation as a result. Does this make me a non trad?What is the difference between taking time off between graduation and applying and being non-trad? They have a separate box/question or whatever for each of these
Non-traditional usually means individuals who have worked in another career field and have decided to apply several years from their undergrad, from my understanding.What is the difference between taking time off between graduation and applying and being non-trad?

Dear BurntFlower,
We have received your Secondary Application to Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine. Your application is now complete.
AMCAS will inform you when your letters of recommendation have been processed and released to your schools. As soon as they do, we will automatically have them as part of your electronic file.

If you are invited for an interview you may bring any updates at that time.
Since you have completed your Secondary Application to WSU BSOM, you are in our review status. Your status will not change unless you are invited for an interview. Interview invitations are extended from September through February. No final decisions will be made until the end of the process in late March.

Yes, thank you! I was just worried because the survey and payment pages were separated and there is not a website to track your status.

Did anyone send more than 3 letters here? I did not see a max on their website, so wanted to know if it would be weird if I sent more.
I sent 5!😀 But I'm thinking anything more than 6 max may be viewed negatively.Did anyone send more than 3 letters here? I did not see a max on their website, so wanted to know if it would be weird if I sent more.

Cool. I have 6, so I'll probably just not send one.
Hmm... Hopefully, you get it soon. In the meantime, it'd be a plus to prewrite the short answers if you haven't already.
Just got a II!
Sent via email this morning. They are scheduling interviews for Tuesdays and Wednesdays in September.
I submitted on July 17th, and got a complete email on July 24th.

For you (and the other people that have gotten IIs), has the date you asked for been confirmed by Ms. Rickey? I got an II on 8/22 and haven't heard back. I want to schedule flights ASAP.
My date has not been confirmed yet, I'm assuming it will be by Monday though.For you (and the other people that have gotten IIs), has the date you asked for been confirmed by Ms. Rickey? I got an II on 8/22 and haven't heard back. I want to schedule flights ASAP.

Wow. Literally got the confirmation email in the same split second I posted this.
I am confirmed for my first-choice date (Wednesday, 9/6)
Sent a primary in on Friday, just waiting for a secondary 

How long did it take others to receive secondary after submitting primary?

One day.
It took a month before I got the secondary. I received it only a few days ago. However I was late on the General application process. Don't give up hope! They are likely going through applications in batches.
I submitted my secondary but never received a conformation email saying that my secondary was received. However, I received a conformation email for the $70 fee. Is anyone else in the same boat? And there is no way to check my status online. I am scared my secondary didn't go through. I submitted on July 28th. Any help is greatly appreciated!

It takes a while for them to send you the complete email. I just got mine yesterday and I had everything submitted for I think 3 weeks

To all of the IS people that had complete secondaries before 8/1,
Are you all still getting silence? Or have IIs gone out to a significant amount of IS applicant?

I am IS, complete mid-July, received an II mid-August. I'm starting to get really excited/nervous since this is my first scheduled interview and it is coming up soon!
Have any rejection letters been sent yet?
Anyone get II yet? If so, when did you submit your secondary?
