Congrats to all those who have been accepted. Make sure to join the facebook group! A few of us have gone out to LMU to see it and a hand full of people are starting to arrange housing/room-mates etc. We are using the facebook page more and more to share info, questions, etc so its been a good resource.
There are about 35 of us on the facebook group so far, but being that SDN is the only advertisement there has been for it I imagine that there are others that have been accepted and have not joined. I know someone who was accepted but isn't on facebook, etc.

does anyone know if there is still room for this program if i apply now?
I'm not sure, but if there's no application fee, there is absolutely no reason to not apply. I'm pretty sure they take applicants through the end of June. I'm not 100% though.
I am! I signed up for July... will you be retaking as well?
Hi guys, I have a question. I am filling out the application right now. There doesn't seem to be a spot for activities and all that. Can I put it under work? The application seems really brief. How will they have a good idea of who we are?
You can fit it in somehow during the short phone interview. They're more focused on GPA. ECs really don't predict how you'll do in the med school classes.
I thought that was interesting too, and my EC's were something I preferred to include because I feel that they are reflective of who I am as a person and a long-time interest in medicine. But I provided my LOR writers with a resume that included my major EC's, and I know at least one of the writers did a fantastic job of incorporating these into their letter because they later provided me with a copy. So if you haven't already submitted LOR's, you might want to provide EC/volunteer info to the people writing them, since they might be able to relate these experiences to your application in a way that strengthens it.
Good luck!
Hi everyone, I plan on applying for this program in the future.
Did anyone apply and get admitted while having some prerequisites in progress in any of the semesters leading into the start of the Fall semester. I completed all the courses except Organic 1 and 2 . I will be taking Organic 1 this coming fall and Organic 2 in the next summer But my c gpa is a 3.35 and my science gpa is a 3.55. Do you think I will still be able to get in?
I want to apply right when the application cycle opens, because I want to enroll in the Anatomical sciences masters and I know that is more competitive.
Also is Jan/Feb too late to apply to the program for the masters in anatomy ad even the Biomedical sciences masters..?

This sounds pathetic but I can't figure out how to send a PM, so I'm just going to respond here! When I had my interview, they asked what were two things I wish I could change about myself and how would I change them (sort of a weird question), what qualities make a good doctor, a mistake that I've made and how I corrected it, and what qualities do I possess that would make me a promising medical student. Other questions that people on this forum said they were asked were how will the program help them, what are their personal goals, and where do they see themselves in X number of years.
Honestly, I think the interview is more of a formality, because it sounds like a lot of people (including myself) felt like they bombed the interview and still got accepted. It sounds silly, but I was so nervous during the interview that after I got off the phone, I realized a few of my answers didn't even really make sense in response to the question that was asked. Don't blow it off or anything, but just try not to sweat it to much. If they like your application pre-interview, I think it's highly unlikely the interview will be your downfall.
Take the MCAT

Like everyone's said so far, the phone interview is completely relaxed. I was on speaker phone with 3 faculty members and they definitely had my file open in front of them. They asked me a few questions, but it really felt like just a nice conversation. Overall took about 23 minutes.
Less than a week.
4 weeks
I'd say you never know unless you try. From my interview and from speaking with Holly, I don't even doubt that LMU is an extremely supportive school. I had an incredibly hard time deciding between Western U and LMU, but in the end I'll be turning down my LMU acceptance because I won't have a personal support net out in Tennessee considering I'm a California baby.
Do you guys by any chance know if we need to register for classes or if LMU is going to assign you to classes at orientation?
We get class assignments in mid-July.

Thank you Sir!
The first window on lmunet.edu
I would go ahead and apply. The first thing that pops up on LMU's homepage is "apply now to the Masters of Science program" and the postbaccs are essentially the only MS programs they do. Also, it is only a $50 application fee + transcripts.

4 days after interview.
They only use aacomas for the science GPA portion of it
I had the same concern before applying. My AACOMAS was significantly better. Holly told me she was taking both cGPAs and sGPA to the adcom from my AACOMAS prof. Call her and talk to her to settle your anxiety. That a way you get an answer straight from the source
For those of you accepted, can you see your financial aid awards on pathway yet? My fafsa was processed a while ago but nothing is showing up on pathway yet.
Is anyone aware of how much each month we have to live with?
For MGA & Neuro, did you grads/alums use just the ppt slides/Facebook-posted study guides to study or did you need Anki decks and/or Firecracker? I'm debating whether to sell some stuff to either go to bootcamp or buy a Firecracker subscription. Thanks.
Hi, does anyone know if they are still giving out interviews. I have been completed for a month, but have not heard anything back. June is approaching soon 🙁
Depends which one you applied for. They told me they weren't reviewing apps for the AS program until the middle of May!
Hi! I just graduated from the program! For MGA we studied directly from the PowerPoint slides for lecture tests.

I have an interview tomorrow. I am excited. I hope there will be a seat left for me! 🙂

I don't know if there is an alternate list for the MS program, but I withdrew my acceptance today so there's at least one more spot!
