Yes it was an email. Accepted 9/3.
So I'm assuming this means you got a scholarship right? Would you mind sharing your stats and what type of scholarship you were awarded?
Thanks! I think they give scholarships to people with 30+ mcat and 3.5+ gpa. From what I have heard, they give a bunch of smaller scholarships, a handful of quarter and half tuition scholarships, and have even given out a full tuition, but I'm not sure common that is. Maybe someone else knows more details. They are for one year, renewable for four if you meet certain conditions.
60 is the maximum amount of time it takes for someone to hear back from DMU, but it could certainly be shorter than that. I just said 60 so that if it takes that long, I won't be dismayed and if it comes sooner then it will be a nice surprise. I haven't followed this thread closely yet so I don't know what the average turn around time is for applicants.
Nobody seems worried. The professors know what they are doing and will continue to teach us what we need to know.
Congrats on the scholarship! Have you already put your deposit down on the school? I'm a little curious about how scholarships are awarded. I have 511 MCAT and 4.0 GPA. I haven't heard anything about scholarship, but I also haven't put down my deposit to the school and was wondering if maybe I'd be awarded one when I do?
When did you interview? I was part of the first interview group and only heard recently. I think the scholarship committee meets like once a month. I emailed asking when I would hear about scholarships and they had a friendly and prompt response. I would imagine that with those numbers you will get something. Congrats on the great numbers and the acceptance!
We received something in the mail last year, but I don't recall it being an actual acceptance package. The school will send most everything electronically, and in time you will be granted a school e-mail and be granted access to the online portal system. The amount of information you can access via the portal will increase as you get closer to the start of school, and there will be a checklist with everything you need to complete prior to orientation. The admissions office will soon begin to send monthly newsletters to your e-mail to keep you updated if they haven't started already. I added some extra info there, but the short version is that most everything comes electronically.
Whoa, super fast. What are your stats?
I haven't taken biochem yet either and was placed on Pre-II hold today so I don't think that is a deciding factor

You can start it up if you're tech savvy. Just follow the trend of the current FB page. One of our classmates set ours up.
Yeah I wish I was more tech savvy (that'll have to change I guess) I'll try but if anyone else that knows how to set up a group and is willing to that would be much appreciated! Thanks for the tip
Yeah, it works!
It's crazy how long the application season seems vs. reality. I feel like I interviewed here forever ago and it's been less than a month.
Interviewed in early November and heard back I think somewhere in mid-November.
