There are lots of clubs and interest groups that provide volunteering opportunities regularly, from food drives, toiletries drives, toy drive at Christmas, sending cards to veterans, helping out at a local inner city kids’ center, food bank etc. There are also 5k fundraisers, teddy bear clinic, the list goes on. Covid put a serious damper on all of this this school year, but they’re starting to approve service projects again as long as we have social distancing plans in place.
You don’t have to be part of a club to volunteer, that’s just who coordinates the activities.

If you are accepted after your interview, it'll likely be a provisional acceptance until a seat opens up for you. Once that seat opens up, you'll receive an email with all of the pre-matriculation items to complete! So your due date for these items will likely be much later than March 1st 🙂

I had a friend interviewing there, and he said it was really laid back and they asked really basic questions. the way he put it, they want to learn about you outside of the number and make sure that you are not a psychopath that will start killing people the moment they get a scalpel in a cadaver lab lol
Nope, it is not required. CASPer doesn't have LUCOM listed on their website and the LUCOM portal checklist doesn't have it listed as a requirement.
Lol hmm that would be a good think to make sure. best tip I have ever received, thank you.

Does anyone know if there is usually a lot of movement in WL and when does it usually happen?

there is no wait list but I assume you're talking about the provisional acceptances?
Does anyone know if they will allow extensions for Castlebranch things (immunizations, titers, physicals, background check etc) ?
Or are they dead strict on the March 1 deadline
Or are they dead strict on the March 1 deadline
I talked with someone from admissions, and they said that they will be flexible with us and give an extension if we email them and explain our situation as to why we won't complete the requirements on time. They just want to see that we are actively making progress.
I'll second that. Just spoke with Mr. Smith today and he said they will be flexible, especially since it takes time if we have to do a repeat on a vaccine series.

Yes I am. Actually submitted the same time as you!
Thats takes a decent amt of time, just be patient and try to do all the other requirements... If its not done by March 1st I would email the school and let them know that ur still waiting on that

Why do we need to get two Tb skin tests? Why do we need another titer test after proof of re-immunization? Is this a joke?
Lol yeah, they got us good! If you call, they’re happy to give extensions. Also, the QFT is much faster than the two TB skin tests, It just costs a bit more
LITERALLY! but if they see you making progress and you inform them of where you're at in the process they will make extensions for you 🙂
What are your stats if you don't mind sharing? I applied in July and haven't heard back and am wondering if they ever received my application in the first place lol

I would email them for sure. They are very responsive
I literally had to call after radio silence until December, and they were like "Oh yeah about that, lets get your interview set up". Got the email the next day and interviewed that week. Definitely reach out to them like Rachel said.

After my interview they said that sending one was encouraged if you're provisionally accepted; they said that plays a strong role in who they call when spots open up.

Hi, so I interviewed last week and am currently waiting to hear back; I logged in and checked my portal and now I have an "acceptance" tab in my admissions checklist with a bunch of new things to complete? Was that always there/is always there for applicants to see or does this mean anything? I might be reading too far into this but the waiting is killing me; the admissions committee was supposed to meet and make a decision on me today so I feel like it would be too soon for a change in the portal and don't want to get my hopes up that this means anything...
