Does anyone know what time they called last time?

no one posted anything last time about A's, but I got put on continued consideration 2 weeks ago, and I got the email at around 5 pm C.T. so I would say acceptance calls are likely later in the day too!

Is it worth letting admissions know I can't attend the "mixer" tomorrow because of work? Or does that not matter? Interviewing monday.

isn't it important enough to miss a half day of work?

Obviously I'd love to be able to attend it but I do work in a currently understaffed emergency department and already had to move shifts for the two other interview parts. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with having to contact the admissions department about it

You don’t have to email admissions about it. If you RSVP for it (idk if you do this year but we had to last year) then it wouldn’t hurt to send a short quick email. The mixer is just a way for you to ask current MS1’s questions about literally anything without the anxiety of having anyone from the admissions committee there.

I’m one of the student ambassadors who are at some of these mixers so feel free to DM me if you have any questions!

thank you so much. This greatly reduced my anxiety about this haha.

Just to piggy back off of what was said, the mixer is NOT required, for those in the future wondering. Hope your interview went well!

Curious about this too

 

[newolduser]

Is TCU done giving IIs?

I hope not! My MCAT troubles held up my app. I'm really in love with this school.

 

[Optimist Prime]

Is TCU done giving IIs?

I don’t believe so.

It was through email! It was pretty nice, and I did appreciate hearing from them now rather than along with the other 20 that are going to hit me come February/March 😅

Yeah totally, this was Pre-II

 

[newolduser]

[Nvrgiveup01]

Anybody complete in late September/early October hear anything yet?

Complete early August and still haven't heard anything. No II, WL, or R.

This may be a dumb question but - do the admission folks and school folks prefer you call them TCU and UNTHC School of Medicine or is Forth Worth School of Medicine okay to say in an interview scenario?

I just said TCU and have heard current students say TCU, and I guess it didn't hurt my chances of being accepted.

I don’t think the school would be super picky for what term applicants use. I can tell you that they want us students to use TCU & UNTHSC school of medicine so it might be a good idea to use that during your interviews. I will admit though when talking to other students we usually just say TCU. TCOM is also in Fort Worth so I’ve never heard it called fort worth school of medicine. Hope that helps!
