Does anyone know if your acceptance can be taken away say if you get a super bad grade on a prereq course you’re currently taking

how does KCU match compared to other schools? Compared to MD and DO. I've heard they match similar to a mid to low tier MD, would that be true? I've only applied DO so I don't really know much about MD

 

[Catrinel]

OOS II!

Curriculum is the same for MD vs DO with DO taking OMM (a form of holistic therapy)

KCU one of the top DO schools and been around for over 100+ years

DO is traditionally harder to match competitive specialties, but if you’re going to a DO, KCU is one of the best ways to go to

When you open your application in the portal, you'll notice additional tasks and it states which campus your admitted to.

for those who got A's, firstly congrats! secondly, how did you feel your interview went? I just had mine and I think some ethical scenarios threw me off my game, so I'm just curious about how yall generally think you did during the interview and if that correlated with the A

Thanks in respect of the NDA I will be brief, but I felt very good after my interview. I connected well with those I spoke to. Good luck with your results! Important reminder: it can and likely will take 4-6 for your answer, so don’t worry if it’s taking a while.

 

[Slythery_snape]

Canadian A!!! Interviewed on Sept 20!!!!

I felt really good about one interview and mixed feelings about the second cus I got very open ended questions. Can't get into specifics cus NDA, but it wasn't really something I could prepare for tbh. Just prepare some stories important to you that you can talk about and you'll be fine!!

I think they screen for basic requirements first

anyone who interviewed 9/5 in joplin still waiting for decision?

 

[StraightAd57]

Does anyone know if I would be able to switch campuses after receiving an A? I applied to both and after the interview, I felt more compelled for one of the campuses. I emailed but got no response yet.

i also got waitlisted and interviewed 9/5. Does it say anywhere on your portal that you got waitlisted? I don't see anything on mine, I only know because I got an email.
