That isn't a complete list. I didn't scan fully but there are also sites in Fairhope and Pensacola.
I believe during the interview, they said the laptop is already loaded with text books we need. The rest is supplemental that we need to purchase for our own goodsCurrent ACOM students! The COA from 2016-2017 year 1 shows $5,350 for books and supplies. Does this reflect the true amount for the items/books that we will really need? I know that the medical equipment will be around $1k.

Yeah, that count towards tuition. The books/supplies, I believe, are for things like notebook, folders, board preps, anki, etc, that you want to purchase on your own, maybe?I thought the laptop was loaded into the tuition, not the supplies/books?

Where is the facebook page for 2017 students? Can anyone provide me the link, I know it has been asked in previous thread somewhere, could not locate. Thanks.
Wow that actually looks pretty good!Official match results, per email from Mr. Willis:

Wowza! This is awesome! A bit suprising though based on everything Ive heard about their mission to serve AL... Only (EDIT:10%) matches within the state. Any insight if this is just due to lack of applicants or perhaps something else?Official match results, per email from Mr. Willis:

I mean, besides students and (potential students) not favoring it, what buzz are you talking about?Sort of a weird question here... since the first class has officially been matched and will be graduated soon....
Any hope that the mandatory attendance and/or dress code will be loosened up a bit? I think there was some buzz about this and it would be nice to know.

I've seen nothing to indicate it is changing.

Any unusual questions during the interview to be prepared for?
Hi Applicants for the Class of 2021!! I will be a rising OMS-3 at ACOM this summer. Should any of you have any questions about the school or application process, just shoot me a PM or tag me here in the post. I check in rather frequently and I will be glad to help any of you out!
Good Luck!

Hi! Perhaps calling the school or emailing Linda Goodson at [email protected] could help you get your answer. Since this page is mostly students and prospective students, we really can't give you a good answer. Good luck with everything!I apply at acom for the fall 2017, i sent my secondary and sent my mcat little late because i took it again in January and my score was a little below 500, but i have healthcare background , i am a medical laboratory technologist who worked in the lab for the last 5 year. I haven't get interview yet, do you think i have a chance to get interview? and until when acom conduct interview?
Thanks

It'd still make the school even doper if the attendance policy was dropped.Thanks! It's not really a huge deal for me. During my graduate work, lectures were podcasted and you could watch them right after they were completed from home... speed them up, slow them down, pause them, zoom in, zoom out, etc. and it was absolutely amazing. Saved a ton of time and I could actually absorb all of the lecture instead of having to sit in a classroom for hours at a time and pray that my attention didn't wane. That would be ideal, but I also understand that most of medical school is student-directed anyway and I am going to be be studying... a lot... and my performance will not be decided by any school policy but rather how much effort I put in.
I'm not really THAT worried about it... I just recall how awesome it was to be able to watch lectures at my own pace and have the ability to freeze them if nature called... for me or my dog! I would call, but at this point I wouldn't expect any transparency on the issue from someone at the school even if, in the off chance, they were going to get rid of mandatory attendance altogether. I also don't want to go on their blacklist of potential troublemakers, lol. I'm just excited to start the path towards becoming a doc. Not having the luxury of lectures from home during the pre-clinical years is very low on my priority list. I just threw it out there because it was something I heard.
Have a good weekend, cheers~!
Does anyone know when they start to look at/ starting pulling people off from the waitlist?

Word of encouragement - a lot of Waitlist movementYeah thats when I heard. 3/31. Felt like interview went well but I just wish I knew how many people were on the waitlist and where I stand compared to everyone else.

not yet this year. I think @futurephysician57 was referring to movement in prior years.

Any current students know if you get a winter break in years 3 and 4 or do you have a rotation going on during that time?

How far below? Like really far? Asking for a friend.My Mcat was below 500 that is why i'm so concerned.

You aren't getting an interview anywhere brother. That's low for any professional schools (pod or carribbean). Most people score higher without any studying on their diagnostic. How or did you study?i got 482
I agree with Mike. 482 is extremely low. I wouldn't expect an interview unless you had a 4.0, really compelling PS, and major extracurricularsi got 482
