Hi guys, it's been almost a year since my last post: http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=672052
I come today with a seemingly simple question that has me stumped. I have searched all the forums and haven't gotten the answer I've been looking for.
I submitted my primary and was verified 2 weeks ago. I received my first secondary request early this week and some more have trickled in. I went on the MSU-COM secondary app online and since I am not technically a permanent resident (pending I-485) they ask me to specify the type of VISA that I am currently under. I came to the US as an F-1, and upon graduation, my VISA has expired. However, since my dad has filed for adjustment of status (AOS in october of 2007), my F-1 does not apply anymore. The website does not have adjustment of status or pending I-485 as an option. Since I other schools will probably ask this same question, I feel like asking on here first before calling each individual school could possibly be more efficient. (~15 phone calls explaining the situation could get a little tiresome, although if I have to, I most definitely will) 😛
In any case, I am a reapplicant this cycle and my application will definitely be complete a lot earlier than last year. (My previous post/thread will give the basics of my application). Since then, I have gotten 7 credits worth of an A (EMT certification) in an accredited school, retook my MCAT and went from a 22M to a 28P (10,9,9), and have signed up for 13 credits for fall during the fall semester (which I am sure will most likely be A's since I will work my butt off)
Would my timing and improvements (I am hoping to be complete at the schools within the next two weeks) give me a decent shot this time around? Also, is being complete end of first week, mid August considered late? or am I right in the middle?
Thanks in advance!
