I interviewed here today. Wasn't quite sure what it would be like after reading such a variety of negative and positive posts on here.
Pre-visit Impression
Pros: State of the art facilities. Experienced faculty.
Cons: Small town. Abstain from alcohol and sex for 4 years or risk expulsion. Mandatory chapel on Wednesday.
Visit Notes
Pros: COM students aren't going to get expelled for living with their boyfriend/girlfriend, drinking alcohol, or watching an R-rated movie. We wouldn't be expected to follow their undergraduate code of conduct. Lecture attendance isn't mandatory, though attendance at group-based projects is. Videos will be posted 48 hours after the lecture. One quarter of the incoming class are Muslims. Also represented are Sikhs, Buddhists, Hindus, agnostics, atheists, and Christians. Their preference will be for a student to do all/most M-3 rotations at one site (either Southside Regional or Lynchburg General) instead of relocating every 1-2 months. You can do rotations at other sites if you request it. M-4's will have more freedom to rotate elsewhere. Research opportunities are available for students who are prepared (i.e. - know basic lab techniques), but they aren't pushing students towards research. They've interviewed students with a 2.1 GPA and 15 MCAT, as well as students with a 4.0 and 37+. Secondaries go out automatically to students with: +2.0, +26, all required coursework, and a DO LOR, the rest are reviewed by hand before rejection. On Wednesday morning the schedule has an hour gap for convocation, but attendance isn't required. Their "spiral curriculum" uses integrated subjects, rather than section-based.
Cons: Less emphasis on early clinical exposure than at other schools I've visited. Summer break is short, so you won't have time for a multi-month research program, if that's what you're looking for. Lynchburg is really small. Tuition is overpriced, considering it's a brand-new school yet charges more than established programs.
Weird: The fin aid director suggested we take student worker positions on the undergrad campus to help pay for med school. Our tour guide said that a building "has the exact same dimensions as Noah's Ark!" and he was serious.
Neutral: You can go snowboarding here in July.
Post-visit Impression
This is going to be a solid school. They've put a lot of money into ensuring it's a success. The staff members I spoke with were very kind and seemed dedicated to ensuring the students do well. LUCOM has a Christian university affiliated, but non-Christians shouldn't feel uncomfortable. I expected them to have us pray as a group before every meeting, or at least before lunch, but this didn't happen. They will, contrary to SDN fear-mongerers' posts, be teaching embryology. The dean has experience starting COMs and is doing things right. And he's on the accreditation committee—I doubt his own school will fail inspection.
I was leaning rather strongly against attending here. Now I'm leaning slightly towards it.
Excellent review. Where else are you applying/interviewing, just curious?
Hi there,
I checked my LU email last week (the one given by the school once you send the secondary). I had the acceptance email along with the checklist to ensure the easy transition. I didn't want to wait for a hard copy of the acceptance letter so I went ahead and paid the deposit <-- hurts!
I hope this answers your question. If by call you meant the acceptance call, I was blessed to received it back Feb 10, the day before my son's 7th bday. I interviewed on 02/04.
Let me know if I can be of your assistance with anything.

It is good to see that the preconceived notions of the school are squashed by actually going to the interview and experiencing it for yourself. It's very easy to form an opinion from a distance. Will there be hick-ups... probably, but that's ok. This school is going to be a very good one and everyone who posts their pre/peri/post interview impressions of the school just confirms this. I admit, I had my hesitations at first... before my interview. After my interview, I knew this was the place for me to attend. Nice report and it's good to see that we (the earlier ones who were interviewed and accepted) weren't crazy or making up stuff.
Well said.I interviewed here today. Wasn't quite sure what it would be like after reading such a variety of negative and positive posts on here.

just got a call. Waitlist. Does anyone know how deep the wait list is right now? This is definitely my top choice after seeing the school in person.

Not everyone believes the same thing and it would be an unfortunate world if we all did. This is one of those cases that it is preferable to agree to disagree. Your stance on certain information has been noted and further antagonistic posts are not appreciated.
Let's keep this a positive place of discussion and information gathering.
Don't feed the trolls. Ignore and move on.

Uggg. I can't wait to move to Virginia! Party poopers can't bring me down
It's not the founder that creates the environment, it's the faculty and students, and believe me, if any of them believed as Mr. Fallwell did and acted on it, they probably wouldn't be capable of providing or teaching unbiased, culturally competent, patient-centered care. Therefore, I don't think we are going to have any problems like that at LUCOM.

I agree with EH123. BEWEEZY rejection is a tough thing to handle. You have the right to be frustrated and angry. I know I feel very frustrated that I didn't get accepted yet. However, you shouldn't use your anger to bash on people, or an institution, specially somebody who is deceased. You should use the pain of rejection to empower you. Take some time off and relax then dive right back in. Reassess your application and see what you can work on to have a better chance in the next cycle.
I can't imagine what you are going through because I don't know your exact situation but I think I have a good idea of what it is like. Let me tell you a little bit about myself and you can judge for yourself if we are on the same boat.
I came to the US at the age of 11 with no English. I started my first job as a buss boy at the age of 15 and have held jobs ever since. However, I have always prioritized my education and graduated college with a 3.8 with dual degrees in Biology and Psychology. It was tough juggling school, work and extracurricular activities. I often slept in a friend's office in my college, so that I can study and be on time for my 8 am exams. However, my passion for medicine kept me moving forward and helped me cope with the adversity. I took the MCAT and scored a 24 with a really low verbal score. I applied this year and only two schools have invited me for interviews thus far, LUCOM was one of the two.
As soon as I noticed my lingering deficiency in the verbal reasoning, I decided to go back to school to take Philosophy courses to hone my reading and reasoning skills, specially for non-science based readings. My thought was that even if a school accepted me, I would be competing with students who have exceptional backgrounds and I do not want my deficiency to hold me back. The philosophy courses are helping a lot. I scored well on my last verbal practice test and I am preparing to reapply.
I hope this helps you reconsider your options.Keep working hard and it will get you where you want to go. Emotions are temporary things, don't let them get the best of you. I wish you all the best.

Long time lurker first time poster, got an invite this morning for an interview... I called to check my status (applied jan 15ish, 2nd 19 ish), and ended up just shooting the proverbial sh_t with the gentleman on the phone. Turns out it was the director of admissions, the call staff was out for the day. He looked up my file and said yeah, you were supposed to be called for an interview... WE talked for a bit and it was great, the exact polar opposite of most status update calls I have made. Couldn't have gotten a better impression off the phone, hope the interview goes well (3.4-Berkeley both science and non, white as can be so not urm, but old->32 so lots of life experience). Will send updates as this progresses. Any advice would be great!

Was this gentleman perhaps, James Cook? He's a wonderful person!
Remember, you were offered an interview--- that means that the school is interested in what you have to bring to the table! Good luck!

You can send it in, and if you have the cash, go for it! Just understand that late applicants don't have as good of a chance. But Im sure you knew that already
With it being a newer school though, they didn't even open their AACOMAS primary til october I think? I could be wrong but it was definitely late. Either way, best of luck!! Let us know how it goes If you are complete everywhere else, have you heard back yet?

In 500 words or less:
What is your personal philosophy on the practice of medicine and explain how you feel that you will advance the mission and vision of Liberty University and its College of Osteopathic Medicine?
Best of luck!

Maybe the Sleep Inn provides free shuttle transport. Check it out. I used the free shuttle service while I was there for my interview. LYH is fairly close to LUCOM.
Good luck with interview. I would just say to be yourself; my interview was pretty relaxed and I hope it will be the same for you!

Sidenote, It's a faux pas to change your status to "medical student" before you are actually a medical student. It's confusing for members and a bit presumptuous.

The Liberty University sweater avatar doesn't give it away? Seriously touchpause13, it seems like you are on a vendetta to make anyone who chose Liberty feel inferior. Let us just be professionals and choose to respect each other. I feel I have done nothing but respect you and would like if you did the same to everyone else. If you were concerned that they were making a faux pas and wanted to save them from "confusing members and being presumptuous," why wouldn't you send them a personal message. If you want to vent some concerns to me or frustration feel free to send me a message as well, I am always open to debate and discuss topics with zero judgement. You may find we even have many of the same viewpoints.

I'm not trying to make anyone feel inferior that has never been my intent. That being said eh is a n00b and made a n00b mistake. It's not that big of a deal to inform someone of making a mistake is it?

I actually was about to apologize because another poster in the underdog thread made me realize I had perhaps been too harsh and hurt feelings in here, which was not my intention.
But you kind of a little twerp. And you clearly have no effing idea who I am. So f u

touchpause youre a loser who probably sits home trolling every friday night. do you actually have any other friends besides your keyboard, mouse, and monitor? I'm a first time poster and a "noob" as you would call it, but i've been seeing you talking **** all the time but you need to be put in your place. i would gladly meet you in person to settle this
one more thing are you actually proud of being able to call yourself an experienced student doctor network troll?
it sucks that you didnt get in anywhere. also sucks that liberty didnt accept you. get over it you troll. troll. troll.
Come on, lets not argue or threaten that's not helping anyone

You were accepted to DMU right? Congrats!! Just like DMU is your dream school, liberty is mine
I've literally only been on sdn for a few months and obviously I haven't figured out all the rules yet (as you and mr kenobi made abundantly clear in another thread I started "in the wrong spot" lol) but hey if I was accepted, paid my deposit, and if my heart is already in Virginia, I guess I'll update my status to "med student" you should too! It's fun

Honestly it seems like lots of people try to purposely offend others. What's the point? We will all have patients with different beliefs, even crazy ones, but as professionals we will have to respect them and be culturally competent enough to not hurt other's feelings.
To be honest, I've "trolled" you just a little, lol. You can come off as offensive, but you still seem like a genuine person who has a passion for some of the most difficult (emotionally) aspects of medicine, and I respect that. You have the potential to be a great doctor, and so do I. As future docs, we are important members of our communities. We need to know when abrasive comments and tone are unacceptable. If you were going to apologize to me, I appreciate it. So far this thread has been a positive one and I think it should stay that way. I think sdn needs at least one place where people like us can ask questions and make comments without fearing being devoured by the trolls lol.

I realize that I've come across as a bit of an ass. I'm sorry for that. I (stupidly) did not think how my words were coming across to students who are planning on attending liberty. My intention was never to put down or shame anyone, if you have seen my other posts perhaps you have noticed that I try my best to be supportive and helpful here.
My intentions were simply to inform potential applicants of the Evangelical nature of this university, because that type of environment is not for everyone. But coming here and being a jerk about it wasn't cool.
For those who have been accepted, I wish you the best. I was lucky enough to be accepted into my dream school and I'm very happy for anyone who will be attending a school they feel comfortable and welcome at.
