They asked me to limit to 6 letters.
For those who have had the interview, how was it? Was it as relaxing as everyone has reported?
Thank you!
You can try logging into your portal, if it won't let you in you've been rejected...
I got the "alternative list" email yesterday. Shucks, but this school is exactly what everyone has been saying about it. So much camaraderie within the student body. Also the faculty make sure that no student falls through the cracks either. Man, I would do anything to get in at RVUCOM.
Ouch, no word for me. Guessing that's not a good sign. How are you guys finding out about the acceptances?
Interview was very relaxed as everyone else said. School was nice and I enjoyed the area. My interview group was silent and made it very hard to talk or enjoy the experience but the students were extremly friendly.
Congrats to those of you who were accepted, hopefully we'll see you next year!
You can also tell on the portal if you've been accepted....there will be tabs that include info on financial aid and such.
Good luck!
PS. I really like this school, and if accepted I would go. Plus, I have a friend that goes to RVUCOM.
So I just got an email from them that I THINK is a complete email or something but the whole thing seems almost like a hold email. The trick is that it's NOT.

Did anyone else ever get an email like this?
Argh -- I just got this email. I'm taking Immunology, Anatomy, and Biochem 1 this semester and expect to get As in all of them -- will it be enough?
How much does this hurt my chances if they're not really considering me until January?
The way I see it, and after speaking with Cassidy (she was at my school 2 days ago so I chatted with her for a while) they would not have sent you this if they were not truly interested. They just want to make sure you'll perform well this semester. From the sound of it, if you do really well this semester (if I do really well this semester!) you can expect an II in January. Just send your updated transcript to AACOMAS as soon as it's available.
Great to hear all the good comments coming from current students. Sound like this school knows exactly what it is looking for and how to get it done.
I heard the school's first graduating class produced great exam results and matched well. Can someone confirm this with any stats?
For any current students, if you had to change one thing about the school, what would it be?
YAY! Congrats, see you in July!Woo-Hoo! I got a call the next day and was accepted. Lookin forward to seeing you guys next year! =]
So my file became complete today. The DO I have been shadowing finally got the letter sent. Do you think I still have a shot at this school? 29 MCAT 3.64c 3.70s deployed to Afghanistan last year after receiving a 20 on the MCAT and not being able to apply. I have a couple hundred hours of shadowing, work as a care tech at a surgical hospital, and have some volunteering experience.
Can any current students give me some more insight into the clinical rotations 3rd and 4th year? What are the odds of being able to do all your rotations in the Denver area? Thanks!
Can someone tell me.. when you have your interview are you in the room with other interviewees? Or is it just you and the two interviewer's? If you are in the room with other applicants how many are there? Thanks for your help!

I interviewed a couple days ago. It was me and a couple interviewers. They started off with a rough ish question but it was comfortable after that.Is anyone else interviewing 10/11? I'm staying at the Red Lion, would anyone be interested in sharing a taxi to campus? My time to be on campus is 11am.
Also, if anyone else has interviewed recently- any tips for the rest of us? Thanks!
I was asked why America is having trouble with the healthcare system i.e. why are we behind so many other countries in our quality of care.Could anyone who has interviewed share what the interview was like? How were the questions that they asked you? Did they ask you a lot of healthcare reform/ethical questions? Thanks for any help you can provide!
Has anyone who interviewed Oct 3rd or 4th heard anything yet?
