Hello,

I am applied for the OU-COM Summer Scholars Program for this summer and wondering who else out there has also applied. Also, anyone who has participated in their program and would like to share their experience, I would greatly appreciate your feedback.

Thanks!

I applied and I am still waiting to hear from them. My friend was accepted into the summer program, was then asked into the post bac program, and is now completing her first year of medical school there.

That is great about your friend. I was told by the admissions that they made decisions today and they will let people know by the first of next week. Hope we both make it there!

I applied for SURF but haven't heard back yet. Is the summer scholars similar to that? I don't know anything about it.

I'm seriously sweating the SURF letter though. Every time the mail comes I'm excited, then disappointed.

The SURF program is more researched oriented than the Summer Scholars program, but they both are a benefit for persons wanting to go to medical school. I know that persons the programs go on pretty much during the same time period...so Im gonna bet there is some interactions between the 2 programs. I think that they just made decisions on both programs this week, so you should be hearing soon. They may send info by email...so check your email also.

Well, I heard from someone in the admissions office that the stpiend is 1200. I was selected as an alternate....if someone turns down their spot...I could be offered their spot. So I still have hope I may be there!

Whether I get into SURF or not, I'll be in Athens over the summer (I live here permanently) so anyone who is going to be in town and wants to talk nerdy in person, give me a shout.

Hey guys/gals.. I participated in summer scholars back in 2006 and I'm finishing up my first year of medical school in about 10 weeks. I know everything there is to know about the program plus I will be a TA this summer for the program. Shoot me an email and I'll try to answer it.
good luck and hope to see those that got accepted here this summer

Hi everyone!

I was accepted to the Summer Scholars program for this summer and am pretty excited about it! Did anyone receive anything in the mail yet? I think the coordinator said she would be getting the information out soon.

Congrats to everyone who got in!

 

[pakidoc87]

Congrats mlc!! I didn't get anything in the mail yet but I'm SUPER excited too!! Can't wait to meet everyone this summer! 🙂

 

[mlc2988]

Thanks! I received all the forms we have to fill out but it still doesn't say the agenda for the summer or how much the stipend is or anything like that. I'm excited to find all of that stuff out!

 

[donkeykong1]

this program sounds interesting, might apply next year. is it open for oos students? also are there any special qualifications.

I believe it is open for oos students. There are some eligibility criteria, but all of the important information is listed on the website: http://www.oucom.ohiou.edu/SummerScholars/

Good luck!

 

[pakidoc87]

Yep, it is open to out of state students. They said they don't really care whether you are instate or out of state.. at least for summer scholars they dont.

 

[ODorDO]

BUMP!!!

I'm in too 😀

Hi everyone! I didn't realize there was already a link going on about the Summer Scholars program... I also got accepted and am counting down the days! I am not sure about the stipend, but 1200 sounds about right and also they'll reimburse ticket fares up to a certain amount.
