Is it just me or does it look like they changed it? It says that tuition is free for those who enroll Fall 2025 which would be this cycle correct?
 
the above link says first 6 batches now.

Tuition-Free for Our First Six Classes​

The school will waive all tuition and fees for classes entering in the fall of 2020 through 2025.

Anybody else tried submitting the payment for the application fee and hasn't worked?
 
Paid the application fee, got the email receipt, but when I navigated back to the application it isn't marked as paid and I'm unable to submit my secondary 🙁
 
Yeah it seems like this secondary is bugged. Wonder if it will be fixed over the weekend or on monday?
 
+1 IS notification of receipt of app overnight

you can submit before it's scored but your app just likely won't be reviewed until it's complete with your score

It might be useful to submit it to get your app in the queue. Although not sure it will be reviewed without the score.

i would still submit it. at least they would have everything and they would only need to add on the preview that they will get.
 
Has Kaiser fixed their payment issue yet? Mine hasn’t updated since I paid last night.

Hi XXX,

Thank you for your email and continued interest. We will be updating the application fee status soon.

We apologize for the delay.

Has anyone been able to submit to Kaiser, the portal is still not acknowledging that I paid. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I have not heard of anyone being able to successfully submit Kaiser. My app is in the same boat as yours. App isn’t marked as paid but Kaisers 50$ fee has charge to the credit card lol

Ok thank you! Just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one
 
Received an email saying it was resolved but still having issues. Anyone else?
 
Just got my secondary invite half an hour ago, paid, and submitted with no problem. Perhaps the payment issue has been fixed?
 
Did anyone else not receive IS secondary yet? verified before 6/28, got that they received my app on 6/29

The website now says first six cohorts. So yes, 2025 matriculation is included.
