Does all who interviewed at this school and did not match are automatically on the waitlist? Or they only choose some people to be on the waitlist?

I think they choose

I found somewhere on the internet that TMDSAS schools rarely send a bunch of rejections and automatically put their unmatched interviewees on a waitlist, but it also depends on schools. However, based on what I have seen so far, not everyone has received the waitlist email. Some ppl even received rejection letters after match day. I guess there are at least 60 ppl in the waitlist rn.

Does anyone know if we'll have to find a BLS class on our own? Or would UHCOM organize a class for us?

I found one on my own, didn’t specify if the school would set it up for us so I assumed we just needed to figure it out 😅

 

[mayanad1234]

Is there a limit on how many people we can invite to the white coat ceremony?

when do we think OOS movement will happen? Have any OOS been accepted? I know they typically only offer 2-3 spots but still holding out hope🙂

I’m still hopeful too! I’m also curious if there have been any OOS acceptances and wonder how many OOS are on the waitlist

Has anyone gotten any info on the financial aid yet? I submitted the SSN form but that’s about it. Don’t know if there’s anything else we should be doing.

Has anyone filled out the Coat size? I wear size XS-L for my clothes, depending on the brand and style, so I don't know what to put T_T

 

[karfas]

is it possible to know where is our position on the waitlist?

Does anybody know if the second day look is mandatory

It’s not, but you might have the chance to talk to financial aid office during the visit which would be useful

 

[hba02]

Has the match list come out?

Does anyone have any information about the school curriculum?

where do students do their rotations? is it within the TMC?

 

[wysdoc]

No, that’s where McGovern and Baylor students rotate. See the UH Fertitta website for clerkship sites.

That information wasn't really clear on the website, I'm not sure where to find it

There’s a handbook that explains the clerkship curriculum and shows all the available sites for each specialty.

most rotations will be at HCA Kingwood

nothing much... The only interesting thing I learnt is that there is a mandatory 10-min break for every 1-hour of lecture.
Communication will shift to cougarnet email and myUH portal beginning in mid-May once they set it up, for now, all communication will still be on the AMP portal

is it worth going to?

 

[heyyall]

I miss studying so I actually enjoyed the lecture. If there was no lecture (classroom experience), I wouldn't care to second "look" since I already went here for undergrad

 

[hba02]

Can someone explain their STEP1/STEP2 timeline?

 

[science&med]

Can someone explain their STEP1/STEP2 timeline?

taken after we finish LIC rotations (2nd semester 3rd year) so the current MS3's just took step 1 and are studying for step 2
