So I am a Canadian, and I got an interview invite from Indiana, but it only holds true if I send the fees and let them know when I'll finish the pre-req courses. However, they require you to take a half semester anatomy with lab, I took a half semester of anatomy but there is no lab. We have a full year anatomy with lab at our school but that's going to cost a 1000 to take a full year course. Also, I plan on taking 2 English courses that are fine with other schools for full year of English, but they are saying that it's not English composition...I don't know if this is all worth it to take all these courses just so I can satisfy the requirement for an interview for only one school. Indiana is a school that is very strict on the pre-reqs, IUSD makes no exemptions from or exceptions to these prerequisites. .

I been searching up the threads on the school and apparently it's racist and they don't like anyone that are not a residence or hoosiers? Man I really need some guidance!

Wait. They are racist because they insist on prerequisites? It must explain why they sent you an interview invite.
 
I fully stated that I read this off other forums as an addition to my problem, and if that were true, perhaps it would be easier for me to make a final decision... but thank you for that side comment...
 
Turning down an interview is turning down a possible acceptance...it depends how much that acceptance is worth to you. Do you currently have other interview invitations? Do you think you'll get many more? How many out of those will accept you? Is $1000 and 2 more classes really all that much if you got accepted? You're the one who has got to decide.

I know you're frustrated, but this does not show a good attitude towards the school and just makes people not want to help you imo. However, best of luck to you.

It's not my attitude towards the school, I just posted on what I have been searching because I was struggling to find an answer. Basically it's like if say I was to go through all the trouble but there is a lot of negativity surrounding the school, then is it really worth it as oppose to if the school was very well regarded by its students. Sorry if you misunderstood what I meant.

I heard they only treat white males in the clinic.
