II on 8/26, complete 8/4
+1OOS secondary, submitted primary early July, 3.7+ GPA, 505 MCAT
Hi!
What do you like about COMP-NW? Do you like Lebanon? Whats the local hospital like (wife is a nurse)? How is cost of living? I know you're pretty early, but do you feel your clinical exposure is good? Is there rock climbing anywhere close lol?
Also in the same situation -- I'm kind of hesitant to submit the Pomona one because technically they didn't send me an official email saying I received a secondary from them.. does anyone else know what's going on with this?Received my secondary 9/2. I just took another look today and it seems like I'm able to complete a secondary for Pomona as well even though I haven't gotten an email from them. I guess count this as another secondary?
Also, do y'all just sorta use the same answer for the prompts for both campuses?
I got that email 7/21 and have not gotten a secondary yet. Maybe pretty selective :/Anyone else ghosted by them? Or are they super selective in sending out secondaries? I received an email 08/09 that they received my AACOMAS app but no secondary yet.
I got the AACOMAS email 7/25 and received a secondary 9/2 -- they might just be really slow about sending out secondaries!Anyone else ghosted by them? Or are they super selective in sending out secondaries? I received an email 08/09 that they received my AACOMAS app but no secondary yet.
I think you should email them! I got the AACOMAS email on 8/23 and secondary email on 8/24 w/ unremarkable statsAnyone else ghosted by them? Or are they super selective in sending out secondaries? I received an email 08/09 that they received my AACOMAS app but no secondary yet.
Hmm maybe, I wouldnt even know what to say: "wondering what the selction process is for secondary applications?" I have pretty low stats 499, non trad post bacc, cGPA 3.39 sGPA 3.32, thinking the 499 is holding me up.I think you should email them!

They do not send out secondaries if you are sub 500. Adcom said this during q and a
That explains it then. Wish I would have known that sooner
Yeah I wish the website would have stated this.Same. That was never clear on the website and I looked through every school and even called some…
do you remember if there were specific cutoffs for gpa as well?They do not send out secondaries if you are sub 500. Adcom said this during q and a

My notes from interview day say that the ADCOM met Sep 13 and that the decisions would be forwarded to the dean the following week for approval. But there was the possibility that he would have to travel, so they gave a 4 week estimate.Interviewed 9/6 hoping they let us know soon!
I had the same question--I assume this is correct? I can only fill out essays for the COMP application, not COMP-NW.I just submitted my secondary for COMP, and now I can't access the portal to COMP-NW. Is it one application for both schools???? I had written the "why us" answers differently for each school.
did you get secondaries for both? i filled out separate applications for bothI had the same question--I assume this is correct? I can only fill out essays for the COMP application, not COMP-NW.
Oh good question. Maybe I only got a secondary for one. The secondary website lists both applications, but I can only enter essays for the Pomona location. Perhaps that means I only got a secondary for Pomona--that would certainly explain things! Thank you!did you get secondaries for both? i filled out separate applications for both
It’s notdoes anyone know if the pre-interview social is mandatory?
I hadn't heard back and assumed I'd been ghosted, and got a secondary on Tuesday. They had the audacity to recommend that I complete it in a week to ensure an early interview Not sure what took them so long!Anyone still not receive a secondary and met the minimum screening requirements?

Oh dear god… how long did you wait once your primary was submitted?
same! is it worth it to submit??I hadn't heard back and assumed I'd been ghosted, and got a secondary on Tuesday. They had the audacity to recommend that I complete it in a week to ensure an early interview Not sure what took them so long!
I feel like I won't considering how burnt out I am and how long the secondary is :///same! is it worth it to submit??
exactly good luck with the rest of your cycle tho!!I feel like I won't considering how burnt out I am and how long the secondary is :///
I did! I got a "Secondary Application Received" and a "Your Application is Ready for Committee Review"Did you guys receive a complete email after you submitted your secondary?
I would also love to know this!does anyone know if there's an accepted FB group yet?
Just got my secondary today. Is it worth applying at this point? How much do they screen prior to sending secondaries?
I believe their screening is just an internal MCAT cut off. But I am unsure if they do any other screening.Just got my secondary today. Is it worth applying at this point? How much do they screen prior to sending secondaries?
They usually respond very quick, 1-2 weeks usually via phone. Respectful of your time. Although there has been increasing interesting/applications over the past few years - may become slower or just more to go through. Best of luck if this is the location you want to go!does anyone know the time from interview to status update? I'm awaiting on my post II decision 😰
