Well columbia's entire medical school is a few floors of one building (they have a separate research building). Same thing with NYU.
I havent been inside the others so i couldnt tell you for certain, but generally the trend in ALL medical schools is to be contained within a very small area of one building. I can tell you that almost every place i interviewed at was like that. Stony Brook, Vermont, UMDNJ, RWJ, Drexel, SUNY upstate, and all the DO schools just to name a few. There are tons more. Only NY Medical College and Penn State are ones I can definitely think of that had a "college campus" feel to their medical school proper, rather than having the entire medical school stuffed in the corner of a building and being told "but you have free reign to use anything else we have for the undergrads"
Congrats to you all! What are your stats and timeline for completion, etc.? Thanks!Interview invite this morning!!!! 🙂

.It may be hard to tell based on this thread, but it really seems like they are focusing on high MCAT scores for these interviews. Some have said they said in the interviews that everyone has had an MCAT of 28 or higher and obviously from those who have posted their stats, they are giving a lot of love to the high MCAT scores.
Very frustrating, but what are you gonna do.....
I'm hoping for the same as well since my MCAT is at a 27, so a little lower than apparently who they are interviewing now. My 3 weeks post secondary is Friday, and I will be following up with them then. I'm guessing I will receive the same response...what my sincere hope is, that perhaps they are doing this at first but then they will start inviting people with scores a little lower since im sure many people with higher scores may go MD. Then maybe it will be more of a mix. I thought that giving in a secondary early would to get an enough for an interview since they prescreen. But it seems like three round of interviews have gone out and I still have nothing... I emailed and was told that when they committee makes a decision to interview me they will send me an email... not sure what that even meant. But i guess it didnt mean a rejection!!

When I called a couple days ago he told me that they would be emailing everyone their status within the next couple weeks. He wouldn't tell me my status over the phone.
Yeah, I don't think it is the same this year. There goes $200!!!Seems like secondary =/= ii this year. I want my $200 back...![]()

Did you receive the email that said they received your supplemental application and fee? I'm not sure if that means they've also received my LORs...Just something to note. I called the school to see if my app was all up to date and they said they didn't receive my LOR's which I sent via interfolio in early Oct. They did receive them but my file was never updated..but now I am complete after I called them . It maybe be worth a try to call them and see if the same thing is happening to you!
Can anyone who has interviewed provide some info about which airport (jfk or laGuardia) is closer, which hotel you stayed at, did they have a shuttle, etc. Thank you.

Aloft is 159 and it looks like I can walk to campus. Any body that interviewed or goes here shed some light on community outreach/service opportunities, clinical or not clinical? Couldn't find much on the net.
I have a question: for interviewees who have to check out of the hotel in the morning because they have a flight to catch after the interview. Will the school allow you to put your luggage somewhere until the interview is done??
I too would like to know. I am interviewing on Monday, but I would assume they would let you. I just plan to walk to the school from the hotel and bring my luggage with me to campus so I can leave right away after I'm done.
