2023-2024 Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine (BCOM)

[Osteopathyiscool]

Has anyone who interviewed on 10/04/2023 heard back yet? I'm literally counting the hours/minutes waiting for their email. They said 2 weeks from the interview day which should be today, but I don't know if we will hear back before Friday.

Lol nothing yet. Been checking my email constantly. Hoping we get the A!!!! It’s still only 10am in NM so the day is still going. Couldn’t imagine how busy they get.

[HemeOncology]

Any tips for the Burrell interview ?

Understand your "why medicine" and how you can contribute to our community and beyond. We really emphasize character so just be you without raising any bad signals.

In the interview they said decisions would be given within two weeks of the interview. Do we know if they are sticking to that? I should have heard back by today if it was within two weeks.

Think we are all waiting. Should’ve been today from what they said. They might be running late 🤷‍♀️

Yes, interviews are sent out in batches throughout the cycle.

Will we be asked for campus preference during the interview if we specified "no preference" on the supplementary?

Hi all - one of the pages when accepting offer asks for us to "submit official transcripts" by a certain date. I'm a bit confused on the wording. As someone who hasn't taken a class since they finished their degree during the pandemic, is this something I need to do? I would've assumed by this point post-interview that BCOM peeps have all they need to know about my coursework and such. Thanks!

You need to send in your official transcript. Just because you submitted your AACOMAS application does not mean that mistakes were not made. No matter what school you go to, they will require an official transcript that is separate from your application (even if they're the same). It doesn't matter if you finished undergrad last year, or 10 years ago, it's still required.

How long does it take to hear a decision after interviewing?

How long does it take to hear a decision after interviewing?

Exactly 2 weeks for me as they said in the interview, but no news isn't a bad thing so keep holding out!

 

[nontradgogetter]

Has anyone paid their deposit? Did you receive a confirmation after?

 

[Blondie800]

I submitted my secondary on 9/9, how long does it usually take to hear back?

anytime in the cycle. Burrell uses metrics to determine who gets to hear back first. There’s no way of knowing.

Their admissions representative team used that word in an earlier post. Idk what they meant by it either.

The Admissions office sends out interview invites based on various aspects of a candidate's application and not solely on the submitted date. As a reminder, Burrell has rolling admissions and limited interview availability in the fall, so invites could come at any time.

Your offer is for a specific location. I believe you can request to transfer but not sure how that works.

Yes, students who receive an offer for a specific location, however, can request a change before signing their offer depending on availability.
