Any current students know how easy it is to get housing? I'd attend here but I am hoping to stay in my home state, and I won't know about my WL status until early May/late June. Would I be able to secure housing sometime in June before the semester starts in late July?

congrats, welcome! There's a GroupMe chat someone posted earlier below:

GroupMe is the group me, the fb group never accepted my request to join so i'm not sure if they're active on there

 

[futurephysician1994]

Can someone speak about the curriculum? If I understand correctly, it looks like we learn both normal and abnormal physiology for each system vs the traditional normal in first year and abnormal in second year, yeah?

Just wondering how the admin is at this school. Do they penalize and surveillance every action y'all do, or it's pretty lax?

No, it’s super early in the DO app cycle and just check your email and spam folder daily

What is considered early for the DO cycle? I am just curious because I was unsure about the speed DO schools fill up their seats compared to MD schools.

Thanks. For MD is it August?

@nicelad you ask a lot of simplistic questions which have no concrete answer.
Do your MD apps first then DO.

No worries. You even taking the time out of your day to respond to me is more than I can ask for. I appreciate you helping out students like myself on our journey in life.

 

[texasvandy]

TMDSAS both MD and DO are right now.

Schools outside of TMDSAS dont follow same time lines since they can interview people beyond January so they can start later.

I'm still on the WL and waiting to hear back. Any current waitlist movement from the school?

The groupme has a lot of people in it and I have not seen many people leaving it. Although, I do see a couple of people joining it from time to time. I think there's already 162ish students in our class

 

[Esky27]

Withdrew my A. Was a really hard decision but going w my gut here (going to a school closer to home and a lil bit more established). This seems like a great program tho and I was honestly so hyped to start. Hopefully someone gets some last minute good news of the WL. Good luck everyone

 

[Dorsey DO]

Anybody here attended the M.S program at UIWSOM. How did it go and how's the linkage?
