i remember they told us at the interview that they are classified as priority to get approved for loans. they said they are under some educational act so they can get approved before they graduate a class.
That's for accreditation, not financial aid
You can Pm me!
The link was a couple pages back you might have to scroll a bit 😂
Yeah I haven't gotten my email with the next steps to complete either lol. I didn't wanna be annoying and email and ask even tho they said by today. All I got was the email saying congrats basically. I know you can do some stuff on the portal but I'm gonna hold out for the email lol. The portal is the same as the one for secondaries
I can complete the "intent to enroll" on the portal so yeah i'd def get that sorted asap
I saw on the portal before i got a call. I ended up calling them first to confirm what the portal said cuz i hadn’t heard any thing at that point
Wait there's a portal? I didn't even know lol
It’s the same place you went for the secondary I’m pretty sure. I saw my application status changed to “accepted” or something and that’s how I knew
Do you still have the link for the website? I didn't go back to that portal since I finished my secondary
Based on last year's thread there was WL movement in June/July when people holding multiple deposits had to choose a school and drop the others. It also seems like a lot of people that interviewed here around this time were put on the WL because seats were full
Last year they also didn’t start interviewing until January so I think they were in a bit more of a rush to get seats filled quickly so it might be hard to judge WL movement this year since it’s more of a normal interview season for them! But yeah I think June/July is probably going to be expected. Orientation starts last week of July
Hi, there I have an interview in a couple of days. Did they not ask you about your academics and research? Also I, of course, have practiced ethics-based questions but am not so sure what critical thinking ones look like. Any advice/resources?
I don’t think I mentioned academics or research really. It’s a lot more to get to know you and how you think through things more than you selling yourself to them
Hey! Any interview feedback you could give?
Hi! Sorry I know this question wasn’t directed at me, but I recently interviewed and received an A. The interview is closed note and is very relaxed. Everyone who I spoke too just seemed interested in getting to know me a little bit more, and let the convo be free flowing, instead of trying to get to each question. I know this is fairly generic advice, but I really think just be yourself, and let your passion for medicine and public health shine through. The admissions crew only knows your name — and they don’t have time to learn every little detail about you — so just try and sell yourself and your love for medicine. Meaning smile, be friendly, and personable. And try to think of a couple instances were you learned something from your pre-med experiences. Everyone is incredibly kind and wants you to do well!! The only con I could say is that the day is looongg but they do interviews in the beginning.
Hi just wondering when you interviewed and how long after you received the A?
When were you put on the WL?
November
Hi! I interviewed 03/09 and received the A call 03/27. The next day I got a congrats email. Then, two days after the acceptance call, I got the email to get to the payment portal.
You have two faculty interviews one on one more traditional. One moral and one ethical based questions. And then a student led MMI style group interview that is story based and discussion. Both super layed back! I don’t think you need paper at all for notes - it’s pretty similar to a sacratic seminar if you ever did those in high school English.
Hi! I'm also .5 units short for Biochemistry and was wondering if you had heard anything about a waiver or needing to take an additional class to meet the requirement?
Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to reply to me, I really appreciate the helpful advice 🙂
It’s not necessary no but every convo is different so it wouldn’t hurt to just be aware of what’s going on rn in healthcare legislation
