same

Not haider here

why is UCR ignoring their alumni

 

[qmanh]

Yeah it’s definitely possible to get an acceptance if you’re not from the IE, you just have to show your commitment to this area. Just make sure to do as many pipelines as possible, as I’ve seen they pretty much only interview people who have done a couple of these (FPL, board or project leader for MMS, Free Clinic, MSP). Research w the SOM is preferred but not needed. Then of course some clinical and non clinical volunteering in the area. As long as you do these and have good essays, you have a pretty good shot of getting an interview at least

Have you heard of any UCR student who got an interview without doing pipeline programs? I might be screwed for EAP.

 

[premedgirlie12]

hi!! Do we have a sense of which application submission month they’re reviewing now? I think the latest I’ve seen was September? (gonna b posting on other threads too)

Unfortunately no, I was in your position last year and I decided to shoot my shot, didn’t get an interview. I wish EAP didn’t depend mainly on your affiliation to the pipelines and the SOM, but rather how mission fit you are.

My suggestion to you would be to wait till next year to apply to the EAP. The EAP application is basically the same as their normal application, just with a way shorter character limit on the PS.

It’ll allow you to get a head start on your PS, activity section, some secondaries, and getting your LORs for AMCAS. PLUS, if you get rejected from the EAP and you have an MCAT score, they’ll automatically put you in the general Haider Pool.

This is just my advice, and I wish it’s what I would’ve done.

Note you can apply to EAP your 3rd, 4th, and one year after you graduate.

Anyone know if ucr accepts letters of intent? Or just update letters.

 

[Josh cord]

They accept both, but they did say to only send one letter so I would combine everything into one letter and send that

 

[Josh cord]

Happy new years everyone!! Manifesting the A for all of us here

 

[Nzk98340]

does UCR wait to send out pre-interview rejections to everyone until like April or do they do it as they go along? asking because I have been complete since late Aug and its been radio silence 🙁

 

[HeyBabyBoy72]

Little confused cause the MSAR says 150 WL spots each cycle and 45 are taken off of WL but they only interviewed 144 last cycle

last year i got my pre-II rejection around april and i was complete in early september. So idk it seems like they wait until all interviews are over to send out any rejections

I’ve heard from past applicants that those are old/not updated but I’m not really sure.

 

[Woop99]

[Nzk98340]

Interviewed 9/12 still haven’t heard back

Hey, I hope this message isn't in poor taste but I am not sure exactly where else to ask this. Do any applicants or current students have any advice for choosing between CUSM and UCR? I have researched both schools, but would love to get some more input!

 

[theruylopez]

Also, in response to the comments above, I am an IE resident who was interviewed and admitted without completing any UCR SOM pipeline programs or research with the SOM. I was a part of FPL but I dropped out of it a few weeks in. For current and future applicants, I think as long as you can articulate and evidence your mission fit, you are golden. Feel free to DM me if you have any specific questions.

Congrats! Separate discussion, did you attend UCR for undergrad?
