No - the DoDMERB email came a couple days after the interview confirmation email, though. The SF-86 took me longer than expected lol so I would work on that sooner rather than later and then schedule medical as soon as you get the DoD email.
I submitted my documents on 10/23, fulfilled a remedial request on 11/29, received my waiver on 01/05, and received my unconditional acceptance this morning
How were you able to submit the SF-86? I never received a link or an email to submit that
I didn't receive a DoD SAFE link to drop off the form/ID until 5 days before my first interview. Mr. Carrington is very responsive, so if you don't get a link or you have any questions about the SF-86, he can help you out
Got it thank you I will reach out soon then once I get that filled out. How long did med and security clearance take for you? I still haven’t scheduled them yet since I haven’t heard from DoD and I completed my two interviewers this week.I didn't receive a DoD SAFE link to drop off the form/ID until 5 days before my first interview.

No problem! Just making sure I understood-- so you had your interviews this week but haven't scheduled your medical exams yet? If so, you might want to contact the commissioning coordinator (and/or maybe counselor?) about that, IIRC I think we're supposed to get the DoDMERB link within 2 weeks of confirming the interview and then schedule the physical before the first interview. Hopefully they can help you sort it out soon!
Both of mine were traditional. Never received any ethical scenario questions
Yep both of mine did. If you don’t hear from them yet by Thursday of the week you are scheduled I think you can reach to your admissions counselor.
Do not lose hope!
From an email 2 weeks prior to the visit: “
Don't know the answer to the first one but for the second I'm pretty sure that the physical just has to be completed within 30 days of your interview. I did my interviews without having it scheduled. I'd reach out to your admissions advisor to get the DodMERB thing sorted, but don't stress about it just focus on your interviews you'll crush it!
+1 here as well
you and me both.
wait tell me more, I have mine this week and want to be prepared
not at the physical that will happen during training over the summer
thanks all this time i thought it was part of it
Silence
never mind, i f'd around and found out
30 June-22 July, but the email said that's tentative and subject to change
any fb group?
thats interesting, i was accepted back in november and havent received an email like that
I received the same email as well. I am a post-II applicant (II in early January) and I received the host email last week and met with a MS1 this past weekend via zoom. It was just a typical Q&A situation where I could ask questions about USUHS and the student would share information regarding their experiences and such. I will say my MS1 mentioned that they usually did the "host" program meetings with applicants prior to an interview and they were surprised that mine was after my interview. Otherwise, it was quite similar to other Q&A sessions I've had with students at other med schools during the application process.
hey! accepted back in December and haven't received anything like that yet
how did you find out you were pre-II hold?
My hold email came at the end of November, probably because the original email after secondary submission said that if we didn't hear anything by December-January we could email admissions to inquire about our status. After that email I didn't hear anything until I sent a grade update for my master's program in January, but I finally got my rejection email today! Lol
current MS1. We had 5 days in between the end of DCC and the start of orientation. all of these days counted towards our 30 leaves days so it is really impractical to take time off. Now, if you are prior service or ROTC and are in the army then you will not need to go to DCC
mine took about a week and it was via email
