Hey guys, I want to congratulate those who have been accepted or invited to interview thus far!

I want to reiterate this post again, in case some of you have not seen it, but this account is run by UTCOMLS Ambassadors, a group of medical and graduate students at The University of Toledo. We work with the Dean's Office and the Office of Admissions to help bridge the gap between current and prospective students on the Health Science Campus. As we're in the second half of the cycle and many of you are making big decisions in the coming months, we are happy to answer any questions that you may have related to our school. Please feel free to reach out to us on this thread, through private message, or at our e-mail and we will be happy to help. Go Rockets!

Keep your head up! The admissions office has told ambassadors that they will be extending invites through the end of March, and interviews will continue through May. If you haven't yet received a decision, it is still possible to be invited to interview. We know the application cycle is long and requires a lot of patience, but continue to check your status through the application portal!

Sending you lots of luck!

They update their available dates frequently (like every couple weeks) so the last day probably hasn't been posted yet

Hello! As of now the admissions office has not given us a hard deadline as to when interview invitations will discontinue. However, I know several other M1 students in my class that did not interview until late March and accepted 6-8 weeks later around April and May. Keep your head up and good luck with the rest of your application cycle; you got this!

If you have other questions I can answer, please let me know!

May I ask what you wrote for the secondary that asked about ties to toledo and Ohio? I also don't have any ties to Ohio and hope to apply here in the future!

If no ties to ohio then you can leave it blank.. if you have ties to ohio but not northwest ohio then you can write about that. But no ties I say leave it blank

I left that section blank since I had no ties to Toledo or Northwest Ohio!
 
Any accepted students who sent in scholarship apps hear anything back?
 
Has anyone had any luck directly emailing admissions with updates? I added one to my portal about 2 months ago with no response.

Uploading an update to the AMP portal didn't get me a response either but I assume the adcom has access to it

At Facebook gp, group me , do you think there are accepted students ( class of 2026) only or there are other medical students also

In the GroupMe and Discord, there are all incoming M1s and a couple ambassadors to supervise us more or less. In the Facebook, there's our incoming class, more ambassadors, and people looking to sell furniture/housing or find roommates
 
do the interviews also consist of standard interview questions or are they mostly ethical questions?

Closed file MMI. No standard interview questions, it's just lots of scenarios (not necessarily ethical ones either!) Personally had a lot of fun during my interview

thank you so much!! just one more question: how often did you incorporate your personal experiences into the answers?
 
Hi! Does anyone know how feasible it is to obtain in-state residency? I know that OOS students can apply for Ohio residency after 12 months, but it's unclear how many successfully obtain it.

As you see fit! I feel like I have a wide breadth of non clinical experiences so I felt okay talking with the interviewer about experiences outside of healthcare.

I maybe brought up personal experiences 4-5 times but if you don't feel that need then you can choose a response more in line with you. I will say I only had maybe 2 prompts that were clinically related but my follow up questions were a bit more so. It was hard to answer the follow ups with personal experiences because I couldnt prepare for that with the 2 minute time window and I don't think they'll expect you to.
 
Does anyone know where on the website the tuition is listed? I found it once but now I cant remember where it is. (EDIT: I found it)

Also, it seems like the tuition gets less expensive after year 1. Can anyone confirm this? My interview is in a week btw.

Has anyone gotten financial aid offers? I’ve still heard absolutely nothing. Would really like to get some info to help make a decision before April 30…

Got my federal financial aid offers, you need to file FAFSA. For the scholarship awards you submitted an application for, we have to wait until after April 30th presumably. But Toledo's CTE date is pretty lenient, not until late June 🙂

Have some fun with it! I personally had a blast during my session, and being in a happy mental state can go a long way. Also don't feel compelled to respond to something that isn't there. A lot of the prompts I had on interview day were non medical related but the follow ups had more ties to medicine and what you think about different aspects of it.

Go hang out with your people or do what makes you smile for tonight, get some sleep, stay calm and go for it!
 
Is Toledo still sending out II? I feel like I read somewhere on this thread that they're interviewing until the end of May??? Also can anybody whos been accepted share the number of people who have joined the Groupme/FB group??

They still seem to be giving IIs. I know someone who got her II 2 weeks ago and interviewed later that week.
The Facebook group has 131 people but that includes people who have been accepted as well as ambassadors and other students looking for roommates/freshies to take over their leases or furniture. The GroupMe has 87 accepted students and 2 ambassadors. Some people HAVE left our chat, probably in favor of other acceptance offers, and I don't have an exact number on that.
