2022-2023 TCU

Med School Insiders
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Based on past phone calls, they seem to come out in the late afternoon and early evening (3pm CST to 6pm CST).

Good luck today for those who have interviewed! This is the first school I'm anxious to hear back from in a while, which shows how much I really like them and am impressed by them lol
 
Anyone get the call, the CC email, or the a rejection yet?

I think from past posts that if you don’t hear anything today, I’ll get the CC email on Monday? Can people on the CC verify

Tbh it’s been very sporadic. The last CC I got came in on a Tuesday.

Anyone else still heard nothing from TCU? With family in DFW, and an R from UTSW, this is close to the top of my list and the silence (and the uncertainty that comes with it) is starting to feel worse than an R :/

Heads up : TCU is preparing for their big site visit/ inspection by LCME in the next week to determine whether they will advance to full accreditation status. This is an “all hands on deck” event, so give them some grace. As we can see from some notifications this week, they are still working through your applications.

I interviewed on January 18th, but have not heard anything. No updated email or status update. Anyone hear anything from Jan 18?

Y'all will crush it! You are such a great school!
 
Does anyone know if TCU has home programs (and if they do, in what specialties)? Also, will the new medical school complex they are building bring in more residency programs to the school? Maybe @OrexinRules knows?

I can see my partner and I living in Fort Worth forever, so knowing if TCU has home programs would help nudge me closer toward them (assuming I get accepted down the line)

Texas Health Resources and TCU and UNTHSC School of Medicine Announce New Graduate Medical Education Program | Burnett School of Medicine at TCU | Fort Worth, Texas

Do you know if TCU and UNTHSC falling out will have any effect on these plans (or cause any other problems for students in any way)?

Also, the link says eventually 110 new graduates but are these going to be mostly FM/IM/EM or would this also include surgical subspecialty spots as well?

I wouldn't call it a falling out LOL.
By the way, I watched that link I posted and it is very generic. You could probably get more specific information, like what residencies they have so far, by contacting someone in the GME department.

Here's another web page about other clinical partnerships: Clinical Partners | Burnett School of Medicine at TCU | Fort Worth, Texas

Based on some research I have done on this, while I don't know if it would be considered a "home" program, JPS does have multiple academic residency programs. These include Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Orthopaedics, Psychiatry, and Transitional. JPS is a large Level I Trauma Center and is very close to the new medical education building that TCU's medical school will be housed in (once complete in Summer 2024). I'd love to hear if anyone has seen anything else though, in addition to the awesome links that @wysdoc provided. You'll also be able to look at the first round of match results in March to see if there are MS4's that will be able to stay in the area

Here are the ones I know for sure we already have going.

EM with Baylor Scott and White (2 classes in)
IM with Baylor Scott and White (2 classes in)
OBGYN with Baylor Scott and White (1 class in)
General Surgery with Texas Health Harris (2 classes in I think...?)

Anesthesia, Ortho, and Transitional Year are planned to begin within the next year or so. They also have plans to add fellowships in the subspecialties of IM.

There may be some more that I am missing; however, things are going smoothly and as we speak there are already 4 with short plans to bump it up to 6 or more within the next 2 years.

+1 I get the frustration but this thread and the wise words of wysdoc and everyone else here has helped me put it in perspective: either TCU is gonna say yes or no - everything in between is more or less irrelevant. Keep your chin up, no R means the A is still possible
 
Does anyone have insight on whether TCU is done sending II for this cycle? I know others have mentioned that the admissions office / team have been busy with accreditation logistics so was wondering if the timeline might be a little delayed this cycle. I've heard such great things about this school so was wondering if there was still a chance

I am also wondering this! I was complete in early August and have not heard anything back. I live in Fort Worth and went to TCU for undergrad so it’s definitely my top choice and I haven’t had any interviews anywhere 🙁
