Right?
FutureDocDO said:Right?
DCDAWG said:It does becuase many accepted DO students choose to stay on an allopathic waitlist. If accepted they will drop the DO school.
Also, I think that at least Ga-PCOM has a May 15 deadline for deposit payments.
FutureDocDO said:I was referring to someone, like myself, that got accepted to DO schools only and paid a deposit for each of them. Do I still have to notify the school I don't plan to attend by May 15th? --- if only I know which one.

box29 said:No, you do't have to notify anyone.
OSUdoc08 said:Correct.
I'm leaning towards LECOM-PA because it's cheaper, has the option to do rotations in other cities (i.e., NYC, Pittsburg, or my hometown), and only 61% or so go into primary care.ppormansdoormd said:so where are you going or where are you leaning towards FutureDocDO? just curious.
GAdoc said:Yep....I've waited till the last moment to pay my deposit to GA-PCOM. So, in two hours I will be $2000 poorer. So, May 15 does apply.
scpod said:Technically, it doesn't apply. However, according to the AACOM Admissions Guidelines:
"Applicants who have made a final decision on the medical school they plan to attend have the obligation to promptly withdraw their applications from all other schools."
If you don't care about your obligations, then I guess you don't have to tell anybody...but it would be the nice thing to do.
SigPi said:Riiiiight. Bunch of BS IMHO. We've spend thousands of dollars on this process, kissed everyones a$$, mauled our postman everyday, and been at the mercy of every single admissions office and committee --and now I have an obligation to be nice to these schools. Horsehockey. Granted you are holding out on a few fellow applicants but hey, you worked hard to get multiple acceptances. Hold them as long as you need to make a defanite decision. Congratulations.
DCDAWG said:So its true that Ga-PCOM has a May 15 deadline, right?
FrogE7 said:That's the way I see it!
I'm tired after all of this and just don't want to be rushed.![]()
