Same, I submitted 8/11 and haven't heard anything back after checking if everything was complete on 8/14. All my stats are above their medians too, but I'm also OOS and no connections to the South. IDK what to think...

People receiving II submitted earlier before you I’m sure.
 
I'm so nervous that I haven't gotten anything from them yet! Complete 08/14. By the way, how did everyone who interviewed this past Friday think of it?

The interview was super genuine and friendly, it was open file but definitely relaxed. The faculty genuinely wanted to know your journey and how you would be a great fit at Morehouse! Overall a really great format

How was the virtual experience? Was it on zoom?

Yep, it was via zoom! Everything went pretty well. They have breakout rooms when you go to private interviews with faculty members and then it will bring you back to the general forum for the rest of it

Wow thanks for sharing! Did you see other applicants in the "general forum"? Or was it just you and the adcom the whole time. Did you also get a chance to interact with other applicants, if so?

My interview is in October & I’m excited!!! Your comment made me even more excited about the fact that they’re giving me an opportunity to further sell myself!!! I can’t wait.

Yes you see all the other applicants in the general forum. During the time for the medical student Q&A they break you down into smaller groups ( via breakout rooms again) and you get time to ask a current medical student about Morehouse! Hope this helps!

I would send them a follow-up email and if they don’t respond I wouldn’t hesitate to give them a call.

I tried calling but it goes to an answering machine to leave a voicemail, instead of talking to someone. I sent a follow up email yesterday after two weeks, no response
 
Online it says they are accpeting applications until December 1 but mcats until sept 12. Does that mean if u apply and ur new mcat for the sept 28 shows on ur application that they will just ignore it

unless you have a prior MCAT, you can't be an applicant for this cycle

Actually a couple posts up another applicant had the same problem and when they contacted MSM, they were told they could still apply. My guess is that they are understanding about this cycle's MCAT mishaps and are OK with the MCAT score coming in on the 28th. Best of luck!
 
For the secondary, did anyone choose multiple answers for this question: Indicate the character of medical practice you presently contemplate?

Sorry this may be a stupid question, but for the professional head shot photo should I upload a picture where I'm in a suit and tie?

Also, is the photo required before you are considered for an interview?
Click to expand...
Definitely wear at least business casual.
Photo is probably required for your secondary to be considered complete.

A 499 is fine for Morehouse, as long as your app is strong in other places!

I have a 3.34 master in biomedical sciences and a 2.89 overall i doubt i will get in . I have shadowing and worked in the hospital. I probably just end up going to do school
 
Khuewayy said:
wow thank you so much! I could not find the lastest considered date on the actual school website, but I see it on MSAR now! Good luck to you <3

Edit:

I just emailed admission and they said that due to Covid they will accept all September test dates! YAY!

Oh okay i was just wondering
 
Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is donating $100 million to the nation's four historically Black medical schools: Howard University's College of Medicine in Washington, the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Meharry Medical College in Nashville, and the Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science in Los Angeles. The schools said they will use the donations to create scholarships of up to $100,000 for students currently enrolled and receiving financial aid. I hope those who get to attend this school will be able to receive this awesome financial gift! 😀
 
Urgent: please help me out:
I have the fee waiver and answered "yes" to the fee waiver question in the portal. I submitted my secondary just now, and the confirmation page in the portal gave me the link to pay for the fee.
Should I email the school a screenshot of my fee waiver confirmation from AAMC? or they will automatically waive it after applicants submit their secondaries?
Thanks for your time!

I asked them about this cuz I also have FAP, but the payment link still showed up. If you have already uploaded your FAP waiver to the secondary portal, you are considered complete! 🙂 The payment link doesn't mean anything for us. If you have not yet uploaded your FAP, you can do so in the Required Documents tab under the "AAMC Fee Waiver Verifiction Form."
 
Has anyone heard since the last round of interviews went out (around 08/11-08/19 I think)?

THANK YOU so much for easing my concern. 🙂)))
 
Any current students please drop the things you love the most about Morehouse. I'm trying to get some extra perspective on the school before my interview. Please
 
Does anyone know if they reject before sending secondary? And if they send u a secondary, is it a screened one?

I think as long as you meet the MCAT requirement you're getting a secondary.
