If you accepted an interview invite and it was on the 18th, did you hear back yet?Yep.

Yes I did, surprisingly quick turn around. WLIf you accepted an interview invite and it was on the 18th, did you hear back yet?
Honestly if they’re doing late interviews like how they did it last year, there’s still a decent amount of spots left. I was applying for this current cycle (2024-2025) and did a late June interview and received the A for a Fall 2024 start but turned it down when I was having luck at other DO and MD programs (paid off with two MD As so can’t complain). After talking to some of the applicants from last year and this year, for these late interviews it looks like they’re going to be weighing the MCAT the most for a direct admission (believe everyone last year with a 500+ MCAT got a direct A) for direct As as long as the minimum GPA criteria is met (think it was 2.8 last year and 2.7 this year). The candidates who got WL’d received a guaranteed acceptance for a Fall 2025 start. Don’t know how they’re doing it this year but just wanted to chime in and give my perspective as someone who was invited for a super late interview last cycle. I hope this helps anyone who received this opportunity this cycle as well and if anyone has any other questions my DMs are open.If you accepted an interview invite and it was on the 18th, did you hear back yet?
That is the boat I am in, WL at LMU and received the email to interview at OCOM 6/18.I did not receive it. Did people already interviewed and get WL by LMU and still received this email about interviewing on 6/18?
My mcat was a 504 and gpa definitely met those requirements so idk. Tbh I don’t think schools value the mcat as much as people think.Honestly if they’re doing late interviews like how they did it last year, there’s still a decent amount of spots left.

I am sorry but I meant did people already interviewed and received WL by "OCOM" and still received this OCOM email about interviewing on 6/18? I did not receive it.That is the boat I am in, WL at LMU and received the email to interview at OCOM 6/18.
Oh man I’m super sorry to hear that :/ Last cycle they literally had a hard cut off of 500 and were scrambling to find anyone that met those requirements. Hopefully after what I think is the last interview day tomorrow, you hear back with good news by this Friday 🙏🫡My mcat was a 504 and gpa definitely met those requirements so idk.

So is life lol. Nothing’s ever a sure thing. Still, I really do appreciate the kind words.Oh man I’m super sorry to hear that :/ Last cycle they literally had a hard cut off of 500 and were scrambling to find anyone that met those requirements. Hopefully after what I think is the last interview day tomorrow, you hear back with good news by this Friday 🙏🫡
Congratulations. That was quick. Hopefully, my A comes soon. Are you IS? Did you send LOI after you were WL ?Seems the good news came today! Got the call today during work!
Well earned! Congratulations!Seems the good news came today! Got the call today during work!
IS, no LOICongratulations. That was quick. Hopefully, my A comes soon. Are you IS? Did you send LOI after you were WL ?
Definitely call or email admissions and ask them directly. The director of admissions is super chill.Do any 6/25 interviewees know when we might hear back?
They’ll def get back to you well before July 4th lol. Can’t imagine people are gonna be in the office on the 4th so calls will probably go out on Tuesday or Wednesday if I had to guesstimate.They got back to me. The admission committee is meeting next week and will have a decision by 7/4.
Depends are you a recent interviewee or a WL warrior? Believe someone said earlier that decisions would come out for the most recent interviewee group before 7/4 (so probably tomorrow because I’m assuming most people will be out of the office on Thursday and Friday). At least that’s how it seemed last year as well) Would assume WL movement would occur after depending on the yield they can get from that interview group. Just my working theory tho and if you want more information call the admissions office. OCOM has by far one of the most receptive admissions office compared to other schools during the whole admissions process.Any news
Hi, the last day will be the day before Welcome Week, so please be sure to keep your phone with you until that day.Does anyone know when would be the last day they would let us off the WL?
Didn’t you commit to ICOM ? I thought I saw that on Reddit? Perhaps you having another A means rejection here?Did OCOM hit their 7/4 projection for any of the 6/25 interviewees? Are we thinking Monday now? Radio silence on my end.
Did you say OCOM offered you A this morning?OCOM As dropped this morning, I got one and declined and my friend got one and is tentatively taking it unless they get off a WL.

I’d love to know! I’ve been on the waitlist since my mid November interview! They have always been my number one choice as a Florida resident!Not much WL movement? Are we going see any waitlist movement soon?
Still patiently waiting. Are you IS or OSS?Has anybody been accepted last week or this weeK?
Thanks for the HOPE!I know someone is giving up an A by tomorrow.
