Just curious to see how many acceptances to schools people attained this application year.
 
I had only one osteopathic acceptance, but this statistic is a little skewed. I sent my primary into 3 schools, sent secondaries back to 2 schools, and then recieved an interview and acceptance at my top choice (KCOM) before I was offered an interview at CCOM, which I declined. As long as you recieve the one acceptance you want, that's all that matters.
 
I had 2. Then again, I cancelled 4 interviews after getting into NSU. I just didn't see the point and I had ran out of money 😛
I am also on two wailists...both allo...so we'll see

KCOM is my first interview and I got accepted.....so I didn't send secondary to the other schools cuz I don't have money and in serious debt. I was really happy with KCOM so, I didn't even want to check out the other options.
 
4 applications, 4 interviews offered, 2 interviews attended, 1 waitlist, and 1 acceptance.
 
12 interviews, 2 attended, 1 acceptance, 1 waitlisted.

my acceptance was my 1st choice, so I didn't really see any point in attending the other interviews. 🙂
 
Applied late December 2004, got 5 interview offers, went to 3, got waitlisted at 2 and accepted at 1. I did not follow up on the waitlists, so I don't know if I would have eventually gotten acceptances. I had the one acceptance I wanted. 🙂

which did you choose? im facing the same decision

I liked CCOM, and I wanted to attend CCOM. However, I will not be done with my Ph.D thesis as I had planned before school starts so I wanted to defer a year. CCOM doesn't accept defferal and asked me to re-apply, but COMP did. So I'm debating whether to even apply there or not.
