Count me in for RCSI's five year program. This couldn't have come at a better time! Though, that deposit!!!

For the people who have been accepted to RCSI:
Are your offers conditional or unconditional?

 

[jalopnut86]

Is the deposit 4,000 Euros just like UCC?

 

[Alexander III]

No the deposit is 6500 euros.

 

[rcsipremed]

Is today the only day they are sending out acceptances?

 

[S0B]

Is today the only day they are sending out acceptances?

Noo it varies, they probably have more to send out, it loosely depends on the geographic location, method of shipment and program applied to.

 

[201200]

Received an acceptance offer today from RCSI's five-year programme. Federal Express package was dispatched to my flat this morning in here Seattle, WA, USA. Haven't discovered word yet from Trinity.

Is your offer conditional or unconditional?

 

[Alexander III]

My package said that my offer was conditional on me finishing my bachelors degree and paying them. I'm assuming the 5 year program offers are just conditional on payment.

 

[jalopnut86]

where did your acceptance come from? california or ireland?

 

[Alexander III]

Just got home (Boston) with nothing at the door...so called Fedex to see if anything was being shipped to my address and the response i got from them was "there is a Fedex label created by ABP but they haven't shipped it yet...it should arrive within 2 days...no signature necessary since it doesn't ask for one but you can leave a note at the door to deliver it without the signature." Hope this helps a few of you out here on the east coast.

BTW, Im applying for the RCSI GEP and interviewed in NY on 2/24.

 

[dr135]

Any news from the west coast? So far it seems like mainly Americans and East coast.

And if so, did they receive it at a much later date or around the same time?

 

[Relia]

My credit card has been charged $22.00 and FedEx says my package from Atlantic Bridge will be delivered Thursday. Was sent today- American for GEP.

 

[SilverStain]

Thanks for the post Relia. Just saw my CC and I see the -$22.00 from ABP as well...

Does anyone know how many people receive rejections but choose to not go there? Since it seems I didn't get an acceptance in the first round 🙁

I presume the 6-year program acceptances haven't been issued yet. (I am guessing its because the 6 years receive a larger package containing more detailed information on university, the program, etc. )

I want to know if I am competitive for the Irish schools or not. Would it be a good idea to email ABP, and ask them about my chances. I want to plan accordingly while I still have the time, in case I don't get accepted. Does ABP give advice on the chances on an application?

What are your sources on this info? 😀

Had to go back and look, cGPA of 3.92 sounds good + publication, have you written the MCAT or are you applying to 5 yr programs?

Your application was over a month past their first deadline (Nov 15) so you may have been ineligible for first round offers for RCSI. Just wait it out, if your stats are accurate you will most likely hear decent news in the future.

I am applying to the 5 year programs at RCSI and Trinity. I was a nonscience major though and have done only the required premed courses (bio, chem, phys, orgo, and physiology). seeing that nearly everyone accepted was a science major, you think thats a negative for admission into the Irish schools? Also, my university is not a highly ranked US university.
