+1, they said 4-6 weeks in person interview and 6 weeks will be this week for me, so will likely give them a call

any update?

 

[dancingpeaches]

are we allowed to send LOI, continued interest, anything here post interview?

 

[aastudent]

My interview is next week. Are there still seats available?

 

[dancingpeaches]

hi is there a current student here that I can ask a few questions about the school to?

 

[Za__]

+1 Still waiting to hear back after mid-feb interview. Did you find out if update letters/ continued interest are allowed?

 

[Satosho_Okayama]

I got an email from CCOM on 1/28 about a LOI and right now I’m debating on sending a letter of interest. I realize it’s super late but has anyone done this and still gotten a II?

 

[skier2108]

Are people who received As getting calls or only emails?

 

[flightparamaybe]

Does anyone know if they are just giving out WLs at this point?

 

[euphoria!]

I would send a LOI, it does not hurt. I also got an II invite 1 business day after sending a LOI, so hopefully it works for As as well!

 

[futadocta]

i emailed admissions yesterday about an update for those who interviewed mid/late feb. they said they're still reviewing and decisions will be reflected in your portal. they also said we'll get an email when the portal is updated. hoping for an update soon this waiting is brutal

 

[Premed Phanatic]

I have a II coming up. Does anyone know if this is a waitlist interview and if the class is full or are they still accepting students?

I interviewed on 4/2 and they said they were still actively interviewing to fill seats throughout April. They explicitly said that they were not interviewing just for the sake of interviewing. They also told us that we should hear decisions tomorrow (from interviewing 4/2)

You interviewed on 4/2, and they said they would already have a decision on 4/9? Wow! I interview on 4/18, so I hope my turnaround is just as quick! Good luck!

Thanks! And honestly I feel we were all surprised that they said a week turnaround time. I'll believe it when I see it. They said the committee meets on Wednesdays. Best of luck to you, too!

 

[skier2108]

Has anyone who interviewed in March heard anything? If so, what date did you interview?

[unnamedlobster12]

Rip feb indeed lol. Maybe we hear with the 4/2 group?

Yeah I have a feeling end of Feb, March, and beginning of April interviews are all gonna be in this pool when they meet

 

[akr123]

still silent for Feb?? Haven’t heard anything personally

 

[seequinn]

Just now my portal updated “Application Status: Awaiting Decision” and just below it “Decision: Alternate”. I’m assuming this is waitlist?

Hm that is likely the case, my portal still shows Awaiting decision and no other info, when did you interview? I interviewed 2/21 in person and have yet to hear back

 

[seequinn]

lol it just hadn’t uploaded the letter yet, for sure Waitlisted. I interviewed 4/2

 

[wonglife5]

Has anyone who interviewed in March heard anything? If so, what date did you interview?

I interviewed 3/26 and admissions said we would hear in a week… it’s been 2 weeks but I dnt want to sound too impatient considering Feb interviewees haven’t heard anything either lol… I also have a gut feeling that the Feb/march/April interview decisions will all be released either this week or next week

 

[futadocta]

[WhiteCoatDreamer1]

OOS A on 4/11 I interviewed 2/18 🙂

 

[GlobalMed543]

Hello! For those who got accepted this cycle, would you say that CCOM accepte applicants with an MCAT score at the 50th percentile? Or would that not matter as much if other extracurricular activities, research, etc. make the aplicant well-rounded.

 

[Stargal4x4]

According to data I have found of google and my own score, I would say they take mostly near five hundred eight and above. I’m sure your GPA and experiences can make up for it a lower score, but CCOM is known for taking well over the fiftieth percentile

 

[Wobblediddle]

does anyone know if ccom has a pre-matriculation program?

Recently interviewed; Dean said they do not.

 

[mudbugbranchblock]

Withdrew my A, hope it goes to one of yall!

For their virtual interviews do they tell you the interviewer ahead of time and should I have an individual zoom link for the interview or is it the same as the rest of the general interview day?

Same as general interview day link and I wasn’t told who I was interviewing with! I actually had two interviewers so it was three people in the breakout room with me I was surprised

I’ll be real, their interview process was a bit messy. The interviewer names were not given ahead of time and they even changed slots for people the day of. They didn’t have slides or anything just kind of showing us general PDFs when discussing curriculum and things like that. All the staff were super low energy and didn’t smile much. The student ambassadors were distracted a lot by I guess maybe their friends who were sitting with them as they were on the call. The whole process was super unprofessional. I asked where to find emails for thank you letters to my interviewers they said they don’t prefer that/give that out and that thank you notes are not required but if you reallyyyy want to you can email general admissions. Overall, bad impression of the place to be honest.
