Where is your state of residence ? Are you applying next year ?

State of residency is WA. I will be applying to an early program these next few days which doesn’t favor In states vs out of state as much (not Amcas application, I know it’s really late in the current cycle). Other than that one early program I will apply possibly in the cycle after the next one, by which time I will have more hours and more accomplishments for each experience (like leadership role, publication, and a volunteer EMT position once I pass my basic search and rescue program that I just started).

You are applying early decision? Are you aware of how late you are? Have you spoken directly with the school? Have they given you the green light to apply? Schools have already started sending out early decision acceptances. You are about 2 weeks away from their deadline to make their decision (Oct 1).

 

[Docstar01]

It’s not early decision, it’s an early assurance. The application opened on August 3rd and ends sept. 28th
