It may be a typo on their part, but you might wanna contact Jamie. Pre-dental postbac students and pre-DO postbac students take the same courses, but for pre-pharm postbac students they are somewhere on campus.

It could also just be a form letter that they send out to all post bac students upon acceptance? I'm sure if you sent in DAT scores that would be a pretty big hint that you were applying for the dental program..

So what happens after you submit your deposit. Do they send you a physical packet in the mail or what?
yea you get emailed a packet regarding further program details and insurance information. When reading it they seem very very strict on dress code lol.So what happens after you submit your deposit. Do they send you a physical packet in the mail or what?

IMO I think you should do a postbac, you can even do a informal one if you like. Your DAT is fine and GPA is in the lower end, but not horrible. But if you're interested in attending in LECOM and moving to Erie then thats up to you!
Found out I got in a couple weeks ago...finally got my matriculation packet/info on financial aid and insurance stuff in my email today. Still trying to find a place to live up in Erie that accepts dogs! 🙂 Anybody else still studying for the MCAT?

Why are you taking the MCAT if u are already in the program? I was told whether you use the AIS/MCAT as long as u maintain a 3.0, you are granted an interview. Unless you are retaking the MCAT, just to apply to other schools while you're in the post bacc?Found out I got in a couple weeks ago...finally got my matriculation packet/info on financial aid and insurance stuff in my email today.

Because they still require a score on the MCAT in the 40th percentile or higher to be able to matriculate into their DO program.

Yup! They don't require the MCAT for acceptance for their post-bacc - only required for acceptance into their DO program.
Did you get in using your AIS? I spoke to Jamie directly and he told me that once you're in, all you need to do is get the 3.0.Because they still require a score on the MCAT in the 40th percentile or higher to be able to matriculate into their DO program.

So I have a cGPA of 3.14 and a sGPA less than that (too lazy to look it up right now). I had an SAT score of 1900.. can't seem to find the AIS calculator that you all speak of so I'm not really sure what that makes it..
My application switched from under to review to saying the letter was in the mail.. do you guys think I should be worried? I never specified when I was taking the MCAT, so is there any chance they could have just rejected me due to a low AIS/unsure when I was taking the MCAT?
Going to be freaking out until I get this letter aaaahhhhh
I think your alright. They would have waited for your mcat to reject you.

@FutureDoctorChloe do you mind sharing your stats. I will be using AIS most likely so I was wondering what your AIS was and your sGPA and cGPA are like?
Also, does anyone know if they have another method of sending recommendations.
Usually if you have letters. You can have the sender seal it in an envelope and you can hand it in to your HPO, they'll usually consolidate them all in your file and they'll send for you?

Hey, I applied and was accepted with an AIS of 125. My cGPA is a 3.6 and my sGPA is about a 3.1

You can calculate your AIS using the feature at the bottom of this page: http://lecom.edu/admissions/entranc...f-osteopathic-medicine-entrance-requirements/

I have an old MCAT of 31. and an AIS of 124 with cGPA 3.55 and sGPA 3.34. I have sent most of documents in and my MCAT will be >2yrs old this june. Also, how do they accept interfolio.
You should prob save a yr and apply to the med school. I don't think you need to do a post bacc. Unless you want to

My AIS was 122, GPA 3.41 overall, unsure science GPA exactly but it was definitely below a 3.0, probably around a 2.8.
