Has anyone from deferred status seen movement yet? Been under deferred since Nov, just trying to see if there is still hope.

Does anyone know if OSUCOM does drug tests for incoming med students? I don't think they mentioned anything in their acceptance offer, but I just wanted to double check

They do a pee test. I’ve heard they give you a couple of months notice (to make sure you won’t have any scheduling conflicts, of course).

very grateful to have just found out about scholarship offer for half tuition, but have yet to see any full aid packages / total COA letters (yet they keep pushing us to use the CYMS tool... ). does anyone know, given this offer, is it fair to expect total cost to just be COA minus the half tuition offer (aka 60k minus 15k)? or is there any chance there would be financial aid on top of this as well (in-state applicant, low income but I don't think they really care LOL). thanks!!!

You will have to wait until you get the notice it has been processed then you can add more schools

Congratulations!! I believe that it would be COA minus 1/2 of tuition as you said... I unfortunately don't know how OSU does need-based aid processes. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Sharing this info for transparency, and for future sdn lurkers looking for any bit of info for scholarships at OSU. I was one of two people selected to receive the "Dean's Ambassador Scholarship", which is a 100% tuition scholarship (renewable for 4 years).

I'm likely not going to matriculate here so I'm hoping this gets granted to one of you on sdn! Good luck everyone!

Congratulations! Was scholarship info sent to your personal or OSU email?
 
Thanks!! And personal!
Last question..did you pay the $25 acceptance fee online? Some people have said you need to pay it and others have said you wait until you know for sure you will matriculate. Thanks again for taking the time to answer!

I definitely did not pay $25 hahah. I'm pretty sure you only have to pay that if you're going to commit there, but I don't know for sure! For context, I was accepted back in December and absolutely never paid $25

and no problem!! I'm always open to people asking questions (speaking of which, feel free to ask more if you have any!!) :)

Great thank you! I haven’t paid it either so I’m glad I didn’t mess up!

Thank you for sharing!! If I may ask, were you emailed about this last week, or this week?

Congratulations (to wherever you may go) : )

Does anyone know how many may get off the deferred/waitlist? I've been on it since October and there's been no movement :(

I got this from the AAMC wait-list procedure handbook. Looks like they typically have 250-300 applicants on the wait-list and accept 100 students from that pool
