Congrats on the acceptance! It's great to see someone with a late March interview get accepted. I'm still waiting on a portal change. Would you mind sharing your stats?
Awesome. Thanks for sharing. Good luck in med school!Thank you so much!! I never checked my LizzyM score, but here are my stats:

Got into the directed studies pathway. This wasn't my top pathway so I don't know much detail about it. Can someone explain what the day to day schedule is or how different it is from regular lecture pathway. Any extra details would be helpful.

I'm in LDP so I don't know all the details of DSP but from my understanding they get learning modules for each exam which is basically just a set of learning objectives to guide their readings. They don't officially get powerpoints unless it's for a lecture they are required to attend (OPP, H&P and anatomy) but they are often able to get them from classmates in LDP. Most of them form study groups to make the material a little more manageable. They also have scheduled quizes/meetings with professors to make sure they are staying on track and can ask questions. LDP and DSP are often learning the same information and if they have nothing scheduled during our lectures they are welcome to attend. During anatomy, the first 12ish weeks of the semester, LDP and DSP have pretty much the same schedule so if during anatomy you decide that you really like lecture it would be super easy to switch into LDP.Got into the directed studies pathway.

Oops sorry I thought you were asking if anyone interviewed without an MCAT which I was going to say yes.. met a few people in that scenario at the interview. Not sure about acceptances though.Has anyone been accepted to LECOM without an MCAT?
I was waitlisted at LECOM-Erie in January, which seems like forever ago. Should I be contacting the school with updates, or is it just a wait-and-see if I get an acceptance letter kind of thing? I am sure the admissions office is swamped with people calling right now.
I remember earlier in the thread that LECOM is receptive to letters of interest.I was waitlisted at LECOM-Erie in January, which seems like forever ago.

To answer everyone's questions, yes LECOM historically has had a good amount of waitlist movement, which continues all the way up until school starts since people are shifting seats around based on other decisions as well!
From http://lecom.edu/academics/the-college-of-medicine/faq-college-of-medicine/Do you know if there is a deferred acceptance possibility? Like for the next year's class?
I would send any correspondence written/typed to the office of student affairs.Where would this be sent? Via email to the admissions office? I guess I am paranoid about appearing unprofessional sending it to the wrong people/place or having a letter of interest do more harm than good

Send a physical letter to the office of admissions where you sent everything else to. Include your applicant ID #, name, sign the letter with pen at the end. Update them on what you've done since you initially submitted the application and why you should be accepted. Anything positive ie GPA improvements, EC's, work activity, awards, publications are worthwhile mentions.
Congratulations and good luck to you as well!I gave up my spot on the wait-list today after getting accepted to Marian! From someone who has been on 3 wait-lists for months, I can sincerely say good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back! I believe in all of you!
For any current students reading this, how many students use the issued E books vs buy the hard copies? Also, how many people have both laptops and tablets for resources? I have a Mac and am thinking of getting an iPad to study from, maybe using iCloud to access my documents between the two, or primarily using the iPad for reading the E books. Any insight into this would be great!
I just called LECOM Seton Hill because my wait list paperwork said Seton Hill specifically and she said that there are separate wait lists and depending on your preference is dependent upon what wait list you are on. I am on the Seton Hill PBL wait list and am not considered for the other programs. She also said the next interview date is this Thursday and then they will start taking people off of the wait list at that time...so in about a week people will start being accepted from the wait list.
This is a long shot, but does anyone have any idea how the WL is ranked? GPA/MCAT > interview or vice versa?
How did your portal change? And is it for Seton Hill or Main campus? Thanks!That's what I am trying to figure out. I had a mind to withdraw my app and try again next year, but I saw my portal change today. While waiting I have been accepted to a special master's/post-bac program and I had started making preparations to matriculate in the near future. I see that a few people have been accepted outright recently, but my stats are average so I was not expecting an acceptance...

Waitlist movement possibly begins this week!![]()
Yah they said 2-3 weeksfor FA packages
this waitlist process has given me multiple aneurysms....
So my application has been under review since July. Are they going to reject me anytime soon or offer me a last minute interview or what?
I've heard back from every school at this point but their school.
I was told hopefully in May 🙁Has anyone heard anything about financial aid or when we should expect to receive our award statement? Should be soon, right?
