2020-2021 Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC)

BU Medical Sciences
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Can anyone speak to service involvements/types of attributes/values they emphasize (caring for social determinants of health, things like cura personalis) at MUSC? or direct me in the right place on their website? their website is barebones or I'm stupid and can't work it. Both are valid options. Writing an update letter (OOS) so they can have it when we start getting reviewed, and want to tie it into my fit some.

Those who were accepted 10/27, did you ever get a second email with the form to sign and return?
 
Are there any other in-state applicants with stats above MUSC's averages that are waiting to hear back after submitting a secondary?

Not even a whisper on the wind friend

At this point I'm starting to wonder if I filled out the secondary correctly? When I go to the website it says everything is completed but I never got a follow up email or anything.

Update: 10/9/2020 Just got a save the date email for the 23rd at 11 PM. IS regular MD. Stay strong and remember radio silence is not bad news, just good news you haven't been told yet :)

When did you submit your secondary? Cause I'm still in the radio silence stage after submitting! :(
 
Having a date/time to expect a call was nice but not getting the call hurts a little extra. 6:13 & nothing :/
 
Don't jump the gun on this one... If I recall correctly they said they would call between 6 and 7.

Can't explain how much of a relief it is to come on here expecting a bunch of A's and seeing everyone else also anxiously waiting for the call or email. I thought they forgot about me.

I got the waitlisted email ~20 min ago. But it was reassuring. Sending love to all of us going through this. && endless joy for all those who got the call.
 
Received acceptance call at 4:45pm today! Good luck to those waiting anxiously! Hoping some As come for y’all soon

edit: call came from my student interview which surprised me. Maybe admin is busy and can’t call themselves so they asked if other members could? Maybe y’all’s interviewers were busy tonight or something lol

So I didn’t get mine 3-4 weeks after I was accepted and ended up having to email them. I wouldn’t email if it has only been a week but maybe In like another week or 2.

Congrats on the A! Would you mind sharing your GPA/MCAT? I got put on hold for my application post II and was a little shocked since I've heard of people with decently lower stats than what I applied with getting immediately accepted. Wish I knew how close I am to crossing their "index score" lol

Sure! 3.5, 511! Good luck!!!!!
 
Is anyone else waiting to hear back for MSTP? I received an email saying they would decide whether or not I would get an II in 2-3 weeks. I received that email exactly 3 weeks ago today and haven't heard anything. Is that a bad sign?
 
Anyone know how receptive they are to updates? Like has anyone had success following one or know if they care about them or just give you the option to submit one?

I just got the call last week, so hello to my future classmates! In the email they sent there is supposedly another one on the way with some information and further instructions, and maybe some stuff in the mail too -- does anyone remember how long that took to arrive? I don't want to be missing anything if I need to be doing something right now. :p

E: Apparently I can't read and this has been discussed above.

any other IS students who have already been accepted to other schools still not hear a word from MUSC? I got nervous thinking I didn't submit correctly or something.

I'd already been accepted to both USCs and hadn't heard from MUSC. I sent an update and told them I was super interested in them and got an II one week later. Can't hurt to try.
