Hi! Sorry for the late reply, the week has been a bit hectic. The curriculum is unique and a bit difficult to understand from the outside looking in, but it has proven to be overall effective in helping us to understand and retain the information we need to know for our boards exams. My classmates and I supplement our textbooks and readings with First Aid, Boards and Beyonds, and more all the time. They actually help us better understand the material overall and how it all connects 🙂
Messaged you 🙂
We typically have class from 9-12pm M-Th and Fridays are our clinical days during which the hours vary from week to week depending on what we're doing. Outside of there's very few mandatory events. One new thing is that research is now a required part of our curriculum and as part of our first year, we are required to go to 3 research talks (1 hour lecture given by someone doing research in any particular field) and 3 research workshops. They offer multiple throughout the year though, and regardless of which ones we attend, we just have to make sure we attend 3 of each. Other than that, mandatory events are far and few between 🙂 You get a lot of time with our curriculum, the trick is just learning how to properly manage it lol
Do you know if they are intv. IS applicants first and if there many acceptances offers to OOS students? I don't have close ties to the state and wonder if I should focus on other schools I applied to for this reason.
seems like everyone that got IIs today is IS.
I'm OOS & got a II today!
Could someone please post the interview day schedule here? When I was scheduling it was there, but I can't access it anymore when I go back to the portal. Thanks in advance!
II!!! Completed August 8th!
This is getting real... :O
This is getting real... :O
Congrats. Do you have ties to Ohio, I don't so I don't know if they are going to intv/accept me because of that. Oh well, I have other options but live in KY so also want OH schools as options since they are close to home.
I believe it is freely accessible on their website under md admissions -> interview day

Our M1 class is the largest our school has ever seen (120) and 48% of our class is OOS, and many of us did not have close ties to area at all. This school is definitely OOS friendly, so def apply!
Dang I thought it was lower. My interview had 0 OOS but may have been because we got interviews a week before the date we scheduled so finding a flight would have probably been hard and $$$$$$$$

This may have been mentioned earlier, but how do you check if you get an II? On the Gateway Application, or is it simply through email?
I received my II via email. After signing up for my date, I can see it in the portal. Not sure if i could have seen it there after getting the email, but before choosing a date.
Anyone complete end of August and still have silence?

Yeah, I completed my application 8/24 and still haven't heard anything.
Does anybody know if they are sending decisions via mail this year? The interview email says via email but last year they sent emails if you were accepted and nothing if you were rejected/WL
Got that WL email just now. Interviewed early Sept
Are you IS?
Wait, sorry if this is redundant, but my application went from MR to SS...what does that mean?
Hmmm that's interesting, i'm not sure...where on the application can you see what your status is though??
Wait ma bad, wrong thread. Thought this was Wayne State.

Accepted! interviewed mid-september
congrats! they're still sending out emails this late?
no sorry jut got around to posting, received the email this morning
Congrats! Hopefully I wasn’t the lone WL out of all of these acceptances haha
does anyone know if this school is receptive to ITA e-mails? - * I have not received an II
An IS school? I was waitlisted here too (with no acceptances currently) but the price is tempting
OOS school, but still super cheap. And I will apply for IS status after one year, to get IS tuition.
What day did you interview?

I was waitlisted on Monday and I think I interviewed the same day you did (1st day of interviews)
I was kinda surprised but I guess we will see how it all goes.
I interviewed early october (first week)
Cool thanks, I interviewed the second week of October and haven't heard anything yet :/ But congrats again!
Well that was just last week so I would expect it to take 1-2 more weeks! Good luck to ya

Accepted today! IS, interviewed last week of September!
They fit white coats on interview day?! Wow! Anyway, you can kinda get a guesstimate by looking at MSAR.

This may be a stupid question, but signing the acceptance form sent in the mail isn't a binding agreement to attend Wright State, right?
