Anyone heard anything from OUCOM? This is the only one I'm waiting on (14/15).

Haven't heard from them yet either - they're the only one I'm waiting on and I have interviews already!!! Strange... 🙂
 
Hi! I too got my Ohio secondary on Saturday! Plus, a postcard from New York saying that they are reviewing applications!
Be on the look out in the mail!
Happy Labor Day!
 
Wow! I got OU today, and boy is it short (and inexpensive). Does anyone know anything about this commitment contract for non-Ohio residents? A girl I know interviewed there last year and said that they tell you different ways to get around it, but you still have to committ. Just wondering... 🙂
 
From what I have heard, the contract states that you have to practice medicine in Ohio for 5 years after graduation. However, with a hefty fee you can pay to get out of it.
 
Interestingly, I already have interviews scheduled at NOVA and UHS (awaiting others), but OUCOM sent me a letter "regretting to inform me" that I am not qualified to complete a secondary app. It must be that I am a non-resident? Hmmm...and the letter was addressed to "Ms.", not Mr.!
Good luck to the Ohio residents!!! 🙄
