Good luck to everyone applying this cycle!
I have just received an email stating that they have received my application and in 1-2 weeks I may receive an invitation to complete a secondary application. This is just a heads up for anyone that applied there to check their email.
Secondary received 6/27.
Anyone know what that character limit or suggestion is on these questions?? I pre-wrote my answers with last year's prompts, and when I pasted my 1250 characters I could still type for what seems to be infinite characters..

Hi All,
We are excited to begin the 2018-2019 cycle! We periodically will answer questions and bring truth to any rumors that may begin here. If you have a question, just @ us! Attached are our LOR guidelines. Following the LOR guidelines will make sure there is no delay in processing and completing your application for review. Best of luck to you all this cycle!
Hi DameJulie,Hi there! May I ask what's the pre-secondary screen is? Is it a number screen, or a holistic screen?
+1I have submitted both my supplemental and application fee but letters have not been “completed” yet. I submitted secondary on 6/28. Anyone else or just me? I submitted letters via aacomas.

I'm still not complete either. My letters were submitted with aacomas in June and I completed the secondary 7/2.
What are your stats? I think MUCOM has their minimum stats posted on their website. I can't post links yet but It says 3.1 GPA and 491 MCAT. n = 1 but I got the secondary the day after I was verified.How quickly after the AACOMAS verification are applications screened and secondaries sent out? Are applicants notified if their app does not pass the screening?
Hi Docslizzy,@MU COM , do anthropology (i.e. World cultures, cultural anthropology etc) classes also cover the sociology requirement?
It looks to be about a 50/50 split because if you review most of the stat pages, it is about 52-55% ISSecondary submitted today! Does anyone know if this school is relatively OOS friendly or is it a heavy in state preference?
@MU COM
I received the confirmation email on June 29th regarding my supplemental application and fee submissions, and in said email it states it can take 2-3 weeks for an email regarding the receiving of recommendation letters and all that jazz. So I just checked the portal, and everything has been received. Should I contact admissions via email to confirm that I am marked complete and awaiting review by the admissions committee?
Thanks in advance 🙂
Note: Just realized this on the portal
"September 7- 8, 2018
First Interview Weekend"
and
"July 11, 2018
Letters of recommendation will start to be reviewed."
So hopefully in the coming weeks we start seeing some interview invitations for that first interview weekend
+1Received the application complete email just a couple hours ago, so if I only waited 12 more hours I wouldn't have needed to post this lol. The email stated it could take up to 4 weeks for the admissions committee to review the completed application and extend an interview.

I currently live in Boston and have never been to Indianapolis, so I went the approach of explaining how I have worked with the Boston population for so long that I wish to return with a degree that can help the community further. I mentioned how the communities are similar (urban, minorities) but I'm not ruling out living in Indiana completely.Hey guys on the question on wishing to practice in Indiana, how did you respond? Im not quite sure i want to practice in Indiana but also dont want to hurt my chances of getting in (assuming its going to leave a bad taste in the adcom's mouth). Help any suggestion
I was sad I had to work during it, I wanted to be there but thanks for the info!I was on the Virtual Med School Fair and thought I'd share with you all that the Admissions director said they hope to send out II by August 17th! Mix of MMI and traditional!
Hi Loosiee,@MU COM, which other disciplines might also cover the sociology prerequisite requirement? I have several credits in economics, philosophy, epidemiology, and ethics. Thank you!
Which browser did you use? I used google chrome and was able to see the character limits. It is important you check on this with admissions to make sure your essay prompts were not cut off. They are always happy to answer questions from students.I submitted the secondary application today! I didn’t see the characters limit so I wrote a lot more than I should. Wondering if that’s ok? :/
I used safari. Yes I’ll call to let them know. Thanks.Which browser did you use? I used google chrome and was able to see the character limits.

It may take a few days because it requires someone going through and checking it. If all of your materials are on AACOMAS, then you are good to go!OK so I submitted my secondary application today, but it says that they still need my letters of rec for the app to be complete. Don't they get the letters of rec from AACOMAS? Also how long did take after submission of the secondary for it to be finally complete?
Perfect thanks!It may take a few days because it requires someone going through and checking it. If all of your materials are on AACOMAS, then you are good to go!
I think this is normal for MU-COM. Correct me if I'm wrong @MU COMMy LORs are still not complete and they were submitted on 7/25. Is this normal for this school or should I call?
