Compare OP's stats to USF's average...
Being a reapplicant is already a bit of an uphill battle, and combining that with a history of declining an acceptance could make it very difficult. Moreover, Morsani has become very competitive in the last few years: http://www.tampabay.com/news/educat...ol-reports-huge-surge-in-applications/2280089
Looks like moola29's MCAT score is significantly lower than the average matriculant (34).
I'm a graduate of NSU currently at an ACGME residency program. It's a good program and I had no problems matching my first choice. I really enjoyed my time at NSU. With that said, Don't let people on here scare you into accepting an offer you don't want. You do you and go wherever you think you will be happiest! Just remember its all a means to that final goal of becoming a doctor. Best of luck to you and whatever you decide to do!

From my understanding, it's really hard to get into medical school at your undergraduate institution. I don't think USF saves any spots for undergrads outside the 7-year programmers, and if they do, it will be very limited. If you haven't already, can you talk to someone at the medical school about how they handle USF undergrad applicants? Say, if they only take a certain number of students from the USF pool, if completing a graduate cert/degree would increase your chances, etc? If you already have an acceptance elsewhere, you need to know what chances you're hanging your hat on before you let it go.
I did undergrad and MSP3 at USF. I didn't apply there for MD only because I wanted to go DO specifically, or I'd have tried to stay, too. Plus I work at FHT and volunteered at Shriners, my whole little pre-med life is between Fowler and Fletcher.
On the other hand, you need to be where you'll have the most support and the best experience for you. If that's not Nova, then it's not Nova. If it's not ACOM, it's not ACOM.
I was told that the committee is meeting tomorrow....so hopefully interviewees from the beginning of March will hear back soon.
Edit: NVM I misread OP
Hello Everyone,
For those accepted and plan on attending here, How long did it take to receive the email with the matriculation information (after paying your deposit) I generally can sit tight and be patient but I just wanted to begin making plans for moving (moving with kids and spouse)
I know during interview they said first day of classes will be July 31st..anyone know orientation/white coat ceremony dates?
I'm also not sure what's the next step with financial aid after completing my FAFSA. Any info will be most appreciated.
Thanks, can't wait to meet you all.

When you get your finaid package....

How bad is it?
Aha, it's basically just the COA they gave you during interviews. About 100k is what's allotted to you so everyone will probably do Stafford + Grad PLUS unless they have several thousand lying around.

Hey! We have a Facebook group going for the class of 2021!! Get in there and introduce yourself!

*Financial question to any current students*
So I know classes start July 31, when does the first payment for tuition officially have to be in? After the initial 2000 deposit I mean

What!!? Weren't you my interview buddy!? Where are you going now!?
In my psychotic, anal-retentiveness I managed to find out they disperse student loans a week before school starts, which rocks because most schools don't disperse refunds until two weeks AFTER school starts.
ACOM! I think it is the best fit for me and my significant other

There's a few posts throughout this thread that talk about the interview day. It would be good to look back at those.
Boo!
Congrats!! Can't wait until the get to the 3/16 interviews!
people had mixed experiences but my interview was very laid back just asked me why nova, why medicine, and more about me personally hobbies and stuff like that
