2020-2021 Noorda College of Osteopathic Medicine (Provo, UT) Noorda-COM

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
it can elucidate (1) you have some idea of one of the most important aspects of our healthcare system, of which you will be an integral part & (2) you know how to explore different sides of an issue, land on a side, and defend it calmly and maturely and not get flustered.
And having half the interview Qs healthcare policy addresses this? Lmao

Respectfully, this is just straight baloney, if one engages in a debate, they should know information about the topic than this "push them into the battlefield and have them defend their position based on ignorance."

Have any lucky souls been pulled from the WL since the 16th-ish? It sounds like a couple A’s were let go of. (Obvi not everyone is on SDN and not everyone posts - just fishing for hope 🤣)

Same. I was really starting to question my understanding of the word "bottle."

Received email for feedback sessions to sign up for. I guess they are 20 min sessions you have to sign up for in advance.

Where in Utah is there a larger group of POC?
I would assume SLC just because there are more tech companies there - likely more diversity. There are a couple of religious temples in South Jordan as well from what I found in Google
 
When will the next waitlist update be available?

Hey all. Had my feedback session. There were a few golden nuggets I was given regarding specific info about my personal statement and another topic on my app. Other than that I was given confirmation of my contingency plan which I had already designed prior to my feedback session. My perspective of my shortcomings was aligned with their notes.

Overall was short and sweet. Worth doing but not earth shattering. I appreciate that they offer this feedback opportunity so I think everyone should take advantage of the commentary which most programs will never take the time to do.

Best of luck everyone!

How does one go about getting a feedback session?
I'm pretty sure they emailed all applicants who were waitlisted. If you can't find one in your mailbox then just email them.

They said in my feedback session today that they still expect waitlist movement throughout the month and into May as accepted/deposited students hear back from other schools they may also be waitlisted at.

How about June and beyond, I wonder?
 
Will be withdrawing my acceptance from this school and hope it goes to one of you. I would like to say that I spoke to many students currently on the waitlist and feel for all of you. It's discouraging to hear how Noorda-COM has handled their waitlist and their total lack of transparency. I hope everything works out for you all, whether it's here or elsewhere!

There are still a very, very limited number of spots left, from what I've heard. So if you're at the top of the list there is still a chance you might get an A soon.

Can you share any insight as to how you know this? It’s exciting info but I don’t wanna get too excited 😝
