Just got denied, but luckily Baylor and Texas Tech El Paso accepted me! Guess God had other plans I just wanted to stay in DFW. Good luck to everyone else! I will share my stats for future applicants this week

I believe someone mentioned to pm them for the groupme earlier in the chat. You should receive the FB link in an email from the school.

Hey guys, I'm a former Medsci Alum from Class of 2022! I got accepted into an Osteopathic Medical school this cycle after taking an extra gap year post-graduation from Medsci due to personal reasons. Feel free to message me on here or my tiktok (ravinamed0) to learn more about my journey and resources I used during medsci and for the MCAT. Best of luck!

Okay I'm bumping this thread because I had a very welcome surprise yesterday. Yesterday I got an acceptance in to a new UNTHSC program called the Postbacc BS in Biomedical Sciences to MS in Medical sciences bridge program. It seems to be a 1 year bridge program where you graduate with their BS in Biomedical Sciences and if you maintain a gpa of 3.25 or higher you get an automatic acceptance in to their MS in Medical Science program. The email said that this is a new program that just began this year and that all the applicants invited were essentially rejected applicants from the MS in Medical Sciences 2024 application which were considered to have strong non-academic background. The total amount of people invited to this program is supposed to be less than 50 people. My stats are stated earlier in the thread if you want to see my academic and non-academic background. I contacted the school and I'm waiting for a reply because I need more information. There is no material online about this program which I assume is due to how new it is.

Did anyone get an acceptance in to this program? I forgot to mention that I never actually applied to this bridge program. An acceptance was essentially just offered to me from what they say was because I

1. Applied to the 2024 MS in Medical science and got rejected
2. Met minimum academic requirements (more than a 2.5 gpa)
3. Was recommended by the MS admissions committee because of my strong non-academic background.

I don't know if this will be a new program from this year moving forward. IMO if you're someone in a similar boat as myself who was someone who had a weak undergrad performance but strong ECs and was going to do postbacc work anyways it seems worth it. It's virtually a guaranteed acceptance in to their MS program which is the gold mine. I'm yet to find out if it's their MS in person or online. I'll update when I get additional info.
