Shortly after my application was verified, I received an email stating they had started processing my application!
The week after 8/15 submission I received a general email once..thank you for applying, reminder to pay your supplemental fee if not already done, tentative IS interview dates, yada yada. I haven't received anything else since.
if you're out of state you likely won't hear anything until end of January regarding early acceptances/interview invites. They reach out to in state applicants first though; I think October is when interview invites come out for them?
Yes, I'm IS.
Oh, so you should hear something shortly if it’s the same process as last cycle!
all OOS applicants got the same email last cycle, it’s basically an interview waitlist. some people will get invited for interviews without having to do that additional screening. some applicants get accepted without having to interview at all. their selection process is kinda confusing 😭
Are you OOS or IS
I assume it's good. This means out of a pool of applicants you are in another pool being considered for an interview.
at the same time, they said that not getting a Kira does not mean you won't get an interview...
Yes, but doing the Kira means you ARE being considered. So this is good.
I haven’t heard anything else
I emailed admissions last fall and was told that the Cell and Molecular Biology online course through University of California, San Diego Extended Studies meets the requirements for the Cell Bio prerequisite. Highly recommend reaching out and checking with admissions - just in case this has changed for any reason.
They still accept it and I was able to enroll. Thank you!
That's great! Of course! I thought the cell bio class through UCSD was very straightforward and a good overall review of other science courses. As long as you put the time in you should do well!
I will be attending UTCVM in the fall and am super excited! For my birthday this year, I asked for a new stethoscope, but it never occurred to me that some schools give stethoscopes with their white coat ceremonies. Do you happen to know if UT will be? If so, do you know what type? Thanks so much 🙂
UT does give out Littman stethoscopes during your white coat ceremony which is done the weekend prior to the first day of class! I think the Litmann classic III or cardiology IV? i'd have to double check
Perfect, thanks so much!!
no problem, congrats on the acceptance! and welcome to rocky top 😉
Nope!
