I think its 5 more cuz they turn it into a waitlist april 30th so even better chances lol

 

[SueMed]

II just now!! Does anyone know if an interview late in March is mostly interviewing for a waitlist position?

You are interviewing for an open spot. Good luck.

 

[wynpalmer]

i just got an A after being deferred in October, no update letter. i think more likely to have movement compared to WL

How did they inform you about the A?

Anyone have accepted student GroupMe?

 

[prayinforanA]

Here, I just made one! This goes for anyone else who recently heard back:

You're invited to my new group 'Ohio State COM Class of 2029' on GroupMe. Click here to join: Ohio State COM Class of 2029

here's the groupme shared earlier

 

[MotivatedPreMed]

Is there an accepted students FB group?

 

[Tibial.Tuberosity]

Still haven’t gotten an interview yet, when should I lose hope? LM ~77 Submitted in July >:/

 

[minute-jello4]

Got deferred the other day... anyone know if they accept letters of interest or updates?

They accept, but don't care about them.

 

[goge69]

It doesn't look like it as far as I know. If someone else wants to email them just to double confirm that would be great to be honest.

They got back to me about financial aid stuff!

1. We do not have to fill out CSS, OSU only requires FAFSA (priority date was 2/15/25; due date 4/8/25). Financial aid packages including any loans, grants, or scholarships will be available mid-April on your BuckeyeLink account.

2. Merit aid (accepted students are automatically considered) - The College of Medicine rolling scholarship review will begin during the spring semester and recipients will be notified directly from the college via email starting mid-March.

Also found some handy info on scholarship criteria in the student handbook: https://medicine.osu.edu/-/media/fi...18133cf&hash=F9E5D32BB07CE1F294957EBC4E0118C7

under 'Student Financial Services'

Should we still have hope 😔

 

[MasterOogway]

Should we still have hope 😔

I’d err on the side of no but it’s not done until it’s done (hopeful as someone with zero IIs)

Sick so if we did FASFA and applied for whatever scholarships we could in the scholarship universe portal it sounds like there’s nothing left to do but wait. I started to stress as most schools seem to require more info/documents and I wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything.

OSU if ur reading this help a girl out and give me some $$$🧎‍♀️🙏

Were there scholarships available in the scholarship universe portal? I didn't know that was a thing, I thought we were just automatically considered, but do we have to apply?

Yea that’s p much it but apparently a lot of the med students don’t have much luck with scholarship universe. Doesn’t hurt to try though!

 

[goge69]

Also I heard of somebody who already got notified of a merit scholarship last week but will have to wait until mid March to know the amount.

Has anyone else received similar communication?

 

[highlander0003]

Does anyone know when there is more significant alternate list movement?

 

[aishahwjwodj]

Were there scholarships available in the scholarship universe portal? I didn't know that was a thing, I thought we were just automatically considered, but do we have to apply?

Yes! They had a mix of school specific scholar ships and external ones (mostly school specific) and they had a questionnaire that would help you figure out which you qualified for

I haven’t, do you know if the notification was in their OSU email or normal email listed on amcas?

 

[goge69]

I think normal email!

 

[stinkygirl203]

I have my interview tomorrow! Does anyone have any advice or feedback?

Also, do they tell you the date decisions will be released? Or is it more general like "hear back in 4-6 weeks"?

I have heard 2 weeks, but I could be wrong on that.. Good luck! ☺️

 

[MasterOogway]

Hoping to hear anything from this school. It’s been 8 months.

 

[Decaying_Isotope]

Hoping to hear anything from this school. It’s been 8 months.

It looks like the mass rejection wave has historically been late March/early April, with the final IIs being sent in the first two weeks of March. So we will likely hear something soon

 

[akabuaal]

I just got an II invite 10 minutes ago. Can confirm they are still giving interviews. Good luck y’all!

When did you submit secondary, if you don't mind answering

 

[cinnamoroll686]

Do we get to know who our interviewers will be before the interview?

 

[VINILOVER123]
