Ik all the dental students are back on campus and I’m almost positive the med school is following suit. I don’t see why the program would be virtual if that’s the case. If it’s not virtual though I kinda need to know so I can prepare to move to a different state. 😂
Yes, I feel you on that!😂because moving can be hassle😩
Yeah, they really need to let us know because trying to move in less than 30 days is gonna suck😩I promise y’all they didn’t do this when I did MSPH I had way over two months to prepare
the longer they wait, the later these apartment move-in dates get 😬
Exactly! That’s why I don’t understand why they are waiting 20+ years to tell us lol
Wow, someone answered? 🤣
Well that’s some good news!🙏🏾
😂 same thing I said! You won’t believe how many phone numbers I went through to get to that point.
When you say "pushing", does this mean it will be virtual or they hope it will be? That's a weird answer lol.
That’s the exact response she gave so I took it as in virtual is their ideal plan unless something changes.
I am weakkk 😂😂😂 I wish I could help more yall. I’m going to keep calling and emailing hoping for more solid answers. I’ve literally sent an email to just about every address I could find with some connection to the program and I’ve tried every number. I lucked up and was transferred to someone who answered today.
Lol this what I keep tryna tell my family, I have emailed, called all of this, we keep getting the in the coming weeks answer 😂 tired of checking my emails every hour lol
I told y’all people that I’ve talked to…that went through the program literally said they received letters two weeks before the start of classes…smh honestly, I don’t mind it being virtual I’m just ready to know what the deal is because waiting to the very last minute don’t sit well with me…like why do that??😩
🤣🤣🤣I swearrrrr
I guess for everyone’s sake for the ones who are not in Tennessee I hope it is virtual with how we only have a month until the start so if they making us wait I just hope that they don’t force everyone to move in a big rush to be on campus if it’s not virtual so hopefully it’s virtual just in that perspective
I was just thinking about that. I graduated before the virtual class wave so I never experienced it myself and it isn’t currently reflecting on my dental app.
Definitely, I graduated December of 2019, right before Covid and virtual schooling so how it’ll affect schools is a big question. But I would presume they would be understanding given the circumstances of Covid
They need to be more exact lol. It’s gonna be tough tryna move within 30 days.
Mannn thanks for the update but omg I’ve never seen nothing like this lol. I promise I’m not the type to complain but this really is crazy. There’s soo many gaps. It needs to be virtual cause that wouldn’t be fair for those who live in other states like me.
This is facts! Like I mean y’all been having us wait this long when some people have applied all the way back in November even
Aye, no cap, November would have made me pull up to the admissions office by now like what’s good with my application fam?!?! lol
That’s a valid point…but through it all guys let’s just remain positive until God says otherwise…because whether the program is virtual or in person if becoming physicians is what God has for us it’s gonna work out…regardless…I know it’s draining but at the end of the day if it’s meant to be it’s going to be. And I think if the program turns out to be virtual they shouldn’t be lenient us they should hold us to the same stipulations that previous classes held under especially being that the program is designed to prepare us for professional school.
I’ll send these acceptance letters out myself damn 😂
I feel you 1000% only thing we can do now is remain optimistic & claim that what’s meant to be is already done. If I get anymore updates big or small I’ll keep y’all updated. I plan to call again next Tuesday if nothing has changed.
If you are planning on attending Meharry for Med school I wouldn’t worry about it. Plus in general I would not worry about it because we are still in a pandemic. Programs like Meharry may want to limit the amount of programs they offer on campus to limit possible exposure/spread of the virus. Just my assumption but schools know things are tough these days.
That's a good point but its also a gamble. I guess the best advice I could give all of us is to reach out to schools now if you plan on applying next year to see if they have a policy in place. I would hate to have spent all of this money and have a hard time getting into my dream schools because I took a virtual masters program. I'm sure I wouldn't have a hard time getting into Meharry but I also don't want to put all my eggs in one basket.
Absolutely! I feel you…I plan on at least applying anywhere from 10-15 schools at the most….and I’m also looking into DO schools
Typo but definitely check apply web to see if you have a decision letter there. For some reason they didn’t send me my acceptance but decision was on applyweb since May. Hope this helps
Awww….man how long did they give you to decide?
you can always say that you are going to go and if you get accepted into Meharry just withdrawal. I don't know how it works with master's programs though lol
By the end of this week.....
I thought of that but you have to pay fees to secure your seat....this is crazy smh
Honestly, I would just ask them if it’s possible that you can give them an update within the next week or two not only are you still telling that you’re interested but you’re also putting the ball bk in their court because if say that you’re attending now they probably gonna receive it as being the final answer….but that’s just a suggestion
Awww…man that’s a tough one then smh…😩
I’m in the SAME EXACT situation, and I technically have until tomorrow to let my other program know something 😒
sorry but what is "applyweb"? are you referring to the portal we used to apply for the program originally?
I have until tomorrow for one program, and until Friday for a second program smh I understand that struggle friend
Yes, that’s the portal that we used to apply for the program
I did the same thing for another Master's Program, just holding off on securing financial aid. I know someone who attended Meharry's Dental School over 10 years ago and they were slow with letting them know then as well. We see some old habits never die 😭😭
