I would say no. I am not sure but my gut tells me no one cares what you plan to do until you do it. You can plan to do anything...
Probably
I would submit one in the update slots
+5 and I wrote an update in December
They do, I was offered a merit scholarship.
Were u told to do the diversity scholarship too?
Dang! Congrats! Do you mind sharing stats?
I did the diversity scholarship early December and no word. You?
Didn’t do it yet 🙂
The website says the scholarship giving process is rolling. I'm a bit worried about a month of silence
Yep
Sure, 3.67 cGPA, 3.61 sGPA, 521 MCAT
I was invited to do it but still need to submit it
Congrats!! Dates available?
holding out hope! I was complete in August
Ahh sorry! I meant how long does their interview season run. Like what month!

Not particularly since it’s already popular among students to go there from what I gatherer speaking to students at the interview. Writing an honest LOI itself can’t hurt but I’m not sure focusing on location is the best idea since being in AZ isn’t a 100% guarantee.
Thank you! Would we need to go to the main hospital often as a first year?
I got it but idk if it was for a diff school or not
Yes. I got one for Creighton
I enrolled in one of the UC extension course which was approved without any problem
I'm currently taking an online statistics class for my conditionally accepted requirement and they approved of it!
I know you're just joking but I'm a devout Catholic and I've had silence since July and I'm a little upset about it lol
I honestly don’t think being catholic gives you much of an advantage. I think from interacting with our current class and learning about their religious view that they try to recruit a diverse class. Yes quite a few Catholics are in our class but that it probably because more Catholics apply to this school than others. First and foremost it comes down to your academic and service resume tbh.
Diversity is important and I think Jesuit schools are pretty good at keeping that in mind. I’m not upset because I think I deserve this more than others, but mostly because I would love to attend a school that has a Catholic affiliation and I really like their program. So I’m just sad I haven’t heard anything. In the end you’re right. I don’t think whether you’re Catholic or not really has that much effect.
As someone who has almost all of their volunteer and clinical activities related to the Catholic Church, literally lived at their campus' Catholic Church over the summer, and also has a letter of rec from a Catholic priest, and has no interview invite, I'm gonna tentatively saying getting baptized won't help.
