They don't have any stated preference but the in-state to out of state ratio is 70:30.

Only the space-time continuum.

OK good, so nothing major then.
If anybody was wondering the dean said that first time las rate for comlex I was around 95% this year
Hey guys. I'm also a first year at NYITCOM and can answer any specific questions you have regarding the school, app cycle, etc.
I don't check this forum often so send me a message and I'll be sure to get back to you.
Invites don't go out till October so my advice to you all is to keep calm and carry on! Good luck!!

Submitted my primary to NYIT August 7 and haven't heard anything....
Probably because you have to submit
the secondary to do so. It's on their website.
They haven't sent me a secondary

hey, did you guys write explanations for only the volunteer section and shadowing section? I created lists for hobby and jobs but basically duplicated what's in primary for volunteer and shadowing experiences.
Curious as well.
Did you guys write brief one sentence explanations or length descriptions?
I feel all the same info is in our AACOMAS Primary Application.
I just listed.

Your verbal score is a red flag. They might grant you some leniency since you are a NY resident but it depends on the competitiveness of all the other NY state residents applying. I would retake if possible.
This is completely inaccurate, I pay 750 dollars a month. There are more than enough places to rent from, and the most people require is a background check.
Did you just call NYIT or did you specifically call the medical school? Because this sounds like they were referring to the NYIT main campus, Columbus Circle (Manhattan) and not the med school campus.
If you were to live in Manhattan, >2k/month and 40x would be applicable. Near the med campus, rent should be half that (if even) and salary caps won't apply. It's not the greatest area (vs. Columbus Circle in Manhattan) so rents should reflect that.

Yeah, rents near the med school averages around $700-800
The tuition and room and board figures from aacom shows NYITCOM having the highest cost of room and board based on
http://www.aacom.org/data/tuitionfees/Documents/2012-13 Cost of Attend.pdf
I boxed NYIT in red, showing it's $26,000 cost of living compared to the osteopathic average of around $15,000...
I just used forrent.com and found places around 2k/month. It's nice to know that there are other options, I guess, but I'd rather live alone in an apt.

Not saying you didn't do your research, just telling you as a 1st year here that you can find a comfortable single apartment for 700 (if you look early) - 1200 (if you're really picky and look really late).
That being said it is a very expensive area, which is to be expected in long island and the tuition is definitely very high as it is a private school.
-And I don't know anyone living in a single apartment personally paying more than 1200 per month.
I think it's sad that having lived in SF and now Manhattan, I've learned to consider anything under 2000k a month cheap, but I guess to a normal person Long Island is expensive.
But, as per below, you should be able to get a single place for under 1500k a month. Looking at the schools I plan to apply to, NYIT is definitely the most expensive (though, since I have some preference to remain in NY, very high on my list).

yup rent around NYIT can range from 700-1500 if you want to live on your own, but once you factor in food, utility bills, gas, and extra spending money..you will be looking at around 20-25k in extra loans every year.

Secondary app emails are rolling out!
yepp
I totally forgot to put down one of my biggest volunteering experience on my secondary when I submitted it on 8/5. It's mentioned on my AACOMAS but forgot to add it there 🙁. I emailed in the hopes of being able to add it. Do any of you know if I actually can or not? Thanks.
Once they confirm it, I don't think you can edit it. However, try to see for yourself if you can edit. If not, I don't see a big problem if it is already listed on your AACOMAS 🙂

Got my secondary. I know this has been posted time and time again on this page, but should I just my activities/hobbies/experiences? Also, do I need to put my hours down since its already on my primary?
Does anyone know how strict they are on the "no grade lower than a C" policy? Just wondering how a "C-" freshman year may affect my chances of my app being reviewed....
I just listed the activity and the date attended. I think a part of this process for them is seeing if you will follow directions or try and go outside of that and "impress" them. Better to be safe than sorry and just do what the ask!
I think the secondary here is more for formality purposes. I listed my ECs briefly.
I thought the secondary was that you go on the website and fill it out yourself? Do they also email with an additional secondary?
They email you telling you to go to the website and fill it out
When do ii roll out for this school?

I'm going through this secondary and it worries me that I have to leave a lot of it blank. I have no global/overseas work experience, no publications or research, and no additional certifications. I also don't have much formal shadowing since I worked in healthcare during school and had a ton of contact with physicians to ask questions to. I do have a large list of extracurriculars, work, and volunteer experiences. Hopefully that makes up for the rest. Anyone else in a similar boat?
You (NYIT) want me to answer questions on the secondary that I have already provided answers to on the primary?
