Congrats! When was your interview date? Just curious because I am still on the waitlist.
I interviewed on 3/3! I also sent a letter of interest about a week before I was accepted for those asking 🙂 Good luck! I hope to see y'all in class
 
Interviewed in September yet still wait listed. Keeping my fingers crossed! Thank you all for the info
 
Just got an email about the waitlist remaining active. Do they send this to everyone?
 
I actually didn’t get this email. Wonder if they took out the people who didn’t send a LOI.
I don't think so, the email says Please feel free to send a letter of intent if you remain genuinely interested in attending UIW School of Osteopathic Medicine. You can email it to [email protected].

It is weird that you didn't get it. I haven't sent an LOI

is anyone here looking for a roommate? Im currently searching for a 2 bed 2 bath apartment and need a roommate!
 
Those who recently got accepted, have you received any information about how to apply for a loan?
 
How long with they continue accepting people? When does school start?
 
One of the prereqs for this school is Inorganic chemistry. Is that the same thing as general chemistry?
 
Just got accepted of the WL, but will be withdrawing. Good luck!
 
got off the waitlist !! unexpected news... need to have a serious discussion with myself and my parents about whether to withdraw from NYITCOM to attend here or not... stressful but so thankful to have options and a chance to stay in Texas !! <3

congrats future doctor!
 
I just recently got accepted to UIW. I saw that the complex pass rate is 86%. Is it the first-time taker rate or is it the rate for the class? Also, is anyone else worried about the pass rate, and if there is OMS2 who can speak on how they prepare for the exam?

How's the pass rate at your other schools?
UIWSOM has been lower than the national avg. but it's something they are focusing on improving.

92% but they have a worse reputation than UIWSOM. And I have recently been offered an interview at another school with a 97% and I'm wondering if it is even worth interviewing because the only red flag at UIW is the comlex rate.

I also interviewed about a month ago at another school with better pass rates. I was alternated. I came off the waitlist at UIW last Monday and chose that over a brand new school I was accepted to months back in Kansas (they’re just going on their second class of students).
My best recommendation is to not sacrifice quality for quantity when you make your decision. I don’t think UIWSOM can be judged based on one set of numbers (which are the first time pass rates you’re referring to). The school has left a good impression on me since day one and they have learning specialists which I’ve heard are very involved.
If you’re worried about boards, join the prep book party (USMLE/COMLEX step 1 reviews which are currently sitting on my bedroom floor) 🫠
 
I got off the waitlist. But going to decline. I hope the seat goes to someone deserving! 🙂
 
I was able to get off the WL of my state DO program, so I will be rescinding my A. I'm sad too, UIWSOM is amazing and I hope one of y'all gets my spot! You all deserve it 🙂
