Wow (thanks btw), they really seem to be behind with EVERYTHING smh. I got invited for a whole interview somewhere else only 2 days after applying. Anyone got an interview at Howard yet?

Yeah they do smh. I tried calling so many times because I thought my money got lost in the mail but just gave up bc no one ever picked up. Luckily it was received. Hopefully they'll start sending invites soon...

I turned everything in but did not receive the email to send my money order payment in. Should I just wait on that email or go ahead and send it?

Hey I spoke to admissions yesterday. She said that once she verifies your app you'll receive the email to send money. Even if aadsas has already verified it you still have to wait on them.

Hey all, i'm having trouble contacting the school. What phone number did you all use to get in touch with admissions?
 
Hoping we have some movement with invites this week since it is finally October (but I've been hoping for this for a while now lol...)

Just wait. It is a process. They will get to you soon. Takes weeks. AADSAS has to verify everything and even the DAT scores take a while. Once it is all verified your status will change and then goes under review. Don't worry.
 
Hey guys I got the confirmation early September

Congratulations!! And best of luck for your interview! I have a quick question are you from the DMV area?
 
I live in the DMV area and really want an interview here. My stats are pretty good and I applied in early June so I’m not sure why I haven’t been invited yet :/

Same EXACT situation as you. No idea. Early submission, great stats, DMV area ... (so lost)
 
Should I be worried? I have a 3.44 GPA, got a 17AA and no interview invite. My application isn’t fully complete though, I need to submit two letter of recommendations. I just know that some schools still give out invites without all of the recommendations in.

Maybe your stats are too good? My friend with super high stats didnt get an invite until May last cycle...while someone I know (with sub 3 GPA) got invited to their first round of interviews this cycle.

Sorry that happened. Was this before or after an interview?

Before, I didn't get an interview. Keep in mind if you do get interviewed from this school, there is an 85% acceptance rate of interviewees since not many people get interviews to begin with.

I'm sorry to hear. Can I ask what your stats are?[/QUOTE

Basically you want to have both a science and overal GPA of minimum 3.2, and alot of volunteer work, DAT minimum 18. Masters degree helps as well, in fact atleast half the class their has some kind of postbacc or masters.

They've accepted students with lower GPAs.

Yea I don’t think that GPA requirement is that high.

I realize their website does say 2.85 science gpa and 2.85 overall, and according to their student council members, yes few students do get in with gpas around 2.85, but they are usually URMs. If you aren't URM they typically look for higher stats, above 3.0 science and overall, as well as extensive shadowing hours. I went to go ask about these stats in person last year and this is what their faculty and student council members had to say. You could get in with lower gpa but then they look for either a much higher DAT score, really high masters gpa, research, significant volunteer experience, etc something obviously that makes you stand out.

Ok I got you, I assumed you were speaking about URMs in general, not saying if the person wasn’t one. Hey I only have a 2.5 gpa...so nobody feel too bad

Yeah they look for the 3.2s or higher for non urm, but again this is according to student council personell, not just me speculating, at the same time though student council members dont get to make the decision.
