Drexel University DPMS Program 2012

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Me as well! Looks like they've started to send responses. Good luck to everyone!
 
Still nothing. :/ Hopefully good news to come on Friday....
 
I withdrew my acceptance for a very similar program that's free. I hope someone still waiting gets my spot.
 
waitlisted :/ thanks for letting us know-- hopefully the whole waitlist thing works out...
 
I got in, but I've already accepted another program that is free and does not limit my AMCAS application to just one medical school.
I hope someone else gets my spot.
Good luck guys!!!🙂
 
I declined the offer because of its high tuition and opportunity to complete my education elsewhere for a lot less $. Congrats to all that will take on this journey and good luck!
 
congrats on the acceptances! Do you mind sharing the name of the free program you got accepted to? thanks 🙂

Has anyone else been put on the waitlist or not heard back yet? I wonder if the wait list situation ever works out....
 
hey guys I too was also accepted and Ill be going. Im kind of freaking out since its only such a little times noticed and I dont know about the loans and the living situation. Ill be joining the fb group as well. Good luck to everyone!
 
Hey all, I just got accepted into the Drexel IMS Program this year, and I was wondering what everyone was doing for housing arrangements. I am looking for a roommate to live off campus in a two bedroom apt (near Drexel Medical School) since prices are much more affordable over there. Let me know if anyone is interested, or has any other ideas about housing. Thanks!
 
My very first SDN post.... Im in for DPMS 2012-2013 👍. Looking forward to the program.

Definitely nerve-wracking even after getting the email bcuz we now have less than 2 weeks to prep and move to Philly. Good luck to everyone

Congrats on your acceptance. I got a second email today asking for the tuition deposit $500 by Friday. Within the email, there was also a link saying that summer housing is provided at Millennium Hall on 223 N 34th St.
I also spoke with Dr. Walker today and she said that we would have a financial aid session during orientation. We may also receive additional emails over the next few days about housing, etc... Let's all hope that it will work out.
 
hey Kyler how is rent? I know we in DPMS get free summer housing but come august we need our own place man and I may be intereste. Im freaking out cuz we need to move in less than 12 days. i think Im just gona take my clothing and then in august drive my car up there. Im going up from Miami!

I'm probably gonna leave a lot of things and just take things i can fit into a couple of suitcases...This short notice is what sucks about DPMS...Having to quit a job in under two weeks sucks big time 🙁 but I'm just glad to be part of the program...see you all in two weeks.
 
If anyone is looking for housing to start in August please let me know. Send me a PM. My apartment is in west Philly near Penn.
 
I got into the program last week but im pretty sure i'll be attending a similar program elsewhere. This notice is way too short as well. Good luck to everyone on the waitlist!
 
I did DPMS 2011 and now im in the medical school! if anyone has any questions let me know! Regarding the summer we all had fun and it was hyped up. it was fun getting to meet people and it was not intense at all







So the summer 1 credit class is intense. Forget about your summer basically-- cold hard truth. 🙁
But...think what you WILL gain from it-- 1) you are in the dpms program & NOW is the chance to prove yourself 2) It will give you a really great edge and preparation for the beginning of the true academic year 3) a slew of other positives like knowing some really cool classmates & bond formation as strong as purines go with pyrimidines (corny joke...sorry)

So, the gist of the summer program. You will do (all medical courses mind you) biochemistry, physio, & pharm. Those are the 3 main ones. On top of that you will get study/learning tips. Schedule is daily morning (8am-3/4pm) It's rigorous, but well worth it.

Want to know more then message me!!

I very interested in this DPMSers Program and I am sorry for this question if it come out inappropriate, but I saw the Facebook group that was posted in this thread. The are majority of the people are African American female. I was wondering if this is true?

Haha I am not in the program but why'd you think it would be any different? I actually expected more black males but its a good mix.
