Congrats! When did you interview and what were your stats?

508 —> 515; 3.92

 

[MusicalMangoMan]

I GOT THE A!

At least I think so, I interviewed last week, so they really only had two business days to review my interview, which seems a little fast. Hopefully it's not a mistake

Hi! does anyone know if KCU in person interviews are only for that specific campus or if you interview in joplin you would still be considered for kansas city or vice versa? I know virtual interviews are equally considered for both

Although last year they were only virtual, I believe I read somewhere either on their website it in an email interview location doesn't matter.

 

[warlordkitty]

When did y’all receive info about interview day? Mine is scheduled one week from today, so not sure if I should call them or wait a few more days.

I think it was like 3-4 days or something before the interview but my interview was virtual.

In-person interview location doesn't matter. I interviewed at Joplin, but only applied KCU and it wasn't a problem

 

[corginator]

Got the A today!! Had my interview 8/29

Did you guys get any confirmation emails after sending in your NDA to make sure they got it?

No I didn't.

Could any current students PM me regarding scholarships and financial aid opportunities at KCU? Thanks in advance!

Me too please!

 

[chacothefish]

After you are accepted, do you have to resubmit your transcripts even though you already submitted them through AACOMAS initially? (I haven’t been accepted I’m just curious)

 

[deleted1166528]

After you are accepted, do you have to resubmit your transcripts even though you already submitted them through AACOMAS initially?

I think it’s only if you have pending coursework, but could be wrong.

 

[purkinjekitty]

If you’re matriculating they’ll need transcripts!

 

[wysdoc]

Wait until you have made your final decisions and have your college send them directly to the medical school you plan to attend.

So even if we have already sent them verified through AACOMAS and we have no pending coursework, we have to resubmit them?

Yes most medical schools will ask for them.

They pulled them off of acomas for me last year ane I had to verify they were right on my workday account. I didn't have any new/pending classes those.

 

[tacocatgoatcheesepizza]

Congrats!!!! Are they usually this quick with sending out decisions? Saw some other ppl get accepted pretty quickly after interview too!

They said to expect a decision within 4-6 weeks. I definitely wasn’t expecting something this quick!

 

[tacocatgoatcheesepizza]

It was an email

 

[quick_tomatillo]

any 08/31-ers hear back yet?

 

[trickymedic]

Just got waitlisted from the 8/29 interview😵

 

[mcMik]

Why did they send me the waitlist email a second time 1 week later... ouch

 

[cozu]

Just got a second waitlist email, KCU really pouring salt in the wounds thanks for the reminder 😂

 

[purkinjekitty]

Waitlisted 8/29 group! Definitely stung a bit but still grateful for the opportunity 😌

Edit: received a few DMs from people waiting to hear back for stats

Stats: 507 MCAT 3.5 cGPA and 3.5sGPA

My interview performance was not at its best, and I 100% felt it the second I closed out from my interview.

The interview was not it for me!

Same I already knew it didn't go well
