Did MWU-IL changed their BCP requirements? How come it says on the bottom page under admission requirements the minimum BCP and overall has to be over 2.75? And under general requirement it says minimum gpa is a 3.0?
I think you are right. They mentioned something about increasing the minimum GPA to 3.0 for the next cycle. So, the 2.75 is probably due to the fact that the page is not completely updated yet.
So is it really going to change to a 2.75?

Strange. I remember a few schools having their minimum GPA being 2.75 and then changing it to 3.0 during the middle of the cycle (lots of people on here got rejected bc of that).
Is the interview here like Arizona where they expect you to know their mission statement? Are they more intense or conversational?
No on the mission statement. It's MMI instead of traditional so it's pretty different. It was my personal experience that the interviewers didn't respond much so it felt really intense, but I think a lot of people felt that way and it still went well so don't panic if they don't really respond!

Has anyone who was Waitlisted on dec 1st been contacted?
did you hear back from MW-iL after dec 1st? wondering if waitlisted applicants have any chance.
For those of you who interviewed, how long was it from the interview date until you heard back?

No, haven't heard back
based on past years threads it looks like about a month after your interview you should hear back

Accepted, interviewed 1/17 but will be turning down, hopefully it goes to a fellow SDNer.
I just got accepted today as well and interviewed the same day as you!Accepted as well!!
Inteviewed last Tuesday, 1/24
My interview was Tuesday and I got accepted as well!
She said it happens. Same with me I already took it and she said if it happens to you just email them.
I heard yesterday too, accepted! Interviewed 1/17.
Anyone have any insight into this school? From what I know, the school is relatively new
Question to everyone that got accepted this past week. I feel like i bombed the interview but my stats are a good bit higher than average. Did you guys feel like you guys did well on the interview? I really don't think I did but a lot of people in my interview group felt the same. I really want to go to midwestern and want to see if you guys felt like you guys killed the interview or not to see my prospective chances. I interviewed this past Monday. Thank you!
I interviewed on the 24th, is it bad if I haven't heard from them yet?...

it is clearly written on the MW that you need 3 credit hours for each. you can take it over the summer 8 weeks course.
I actually thought I did really well on my interview and for the first time the outcome was accurate to my feeling lol. I don't have high stats but mines are a little higher than MWU. So, I guess the stats can only help you, but I thought my interview went well.
When did you interview?
I interviewed on the 12th so I probably got waitlisted too then. Feeling kinda hurt now since I thought I did really well that day...
I would follow up on this ASAP. Some schools offer Anatomy separate from Physiology, some do a joint Anatomy & Physiology course. Regardless you need a minimum of 6 credit hours, or two semesters worth. So if you took A&P I then I believe you need to take A&P II, unless I'm misunderstanding.

It lasted until 3:30 for me if I remember correctly

Yeah, it went to 3:00 when I was there too. I believe you lunch from 12:30-1:30 then you take a shuttle to the clinic for a tour there to finish the interview day up

Correct. That's what the administration said when I called.
Is there a Facebook group yet?
I don't think it will have an impact on your waiting list "position" at all - as long as you make sure he schools know what your plan is and that you'll be completing it in the summer.
As far as the 6 total credit hours go, the 4 you got from your first A&P course go towards that, so you only need to take one more - the second class in the A & P sequence. If a school doesn't offer an anatomy course separate from a physiology course, they should offer an A & P I and am A & P II. Is this the case at your school?

Update: I got flat out rejected. Really surprised because I thought my interview(s) went really well.
ouch! its hard to believe it. you have great DAT score plus high gpa. are you OOS?
I'm OOS, but I wouldn't like that played a factor in it since MWU is a private school.
well now I'm terrified for my interview..
