How can you apply to Alice Walton and Roseman?

[dodoo123]

Hey everybody, as the title states, I noticed that both schools are planning to admit their first inaugural class in 2025, which is for this current cycle that has just opened up. I searched for their names on AMCAS but couldn't find them. Could anyone assist with this matter?

Both of these programs still appear to be in “Candidate” status, and have not received accreditation status sufficient for students to apply. It’s going to be a “wait and find out” game. Keep your eyes open to when they say they are accepting applications, then just go back into AMCAS and add them at that time.

Exactly. You just have to wait until they get their initial accreditation announcement and get allowed to process applications through AMCAS.

I emailed them forever ago to get more information but they really didn’t have much of a clue either. The goal was October!

"they really didn’t have much of a clue'
it's not that they are keeping info from you or don't know what's going on 🙄

They need to wait for the decision from LCME, the accrediting agency, on whether they are advanced to the status of "Preliminary Accreditation" so they can begin recruiting students and accepting applications. The next LCME report is expected in October.

Once they get clearance from LCME, they'll announce. See Meritous (DO) that just announced they're ready.

Is there typically a time for that? I know Belmont was around this time last year.

Suffice to say, that's the admissions teams' problem.

Sounds good thank you!

The Autumn LCME meeting is October 15-17 this year. There will probably be some word by the end of next week, especially if the outcomes are positive.
