What are the acceptance rates for the SMDEP programs?

[premed2013]

I am planning on applying to UT Houston (i'm from texas), UCLA, and Washington? Are these really competitive? If so should I apply to less competitive sites? I want to make sure I get in somewhere.

apply early. Washington and UT sounds good. I know UCLA and Columbia was full when I applied last year(around December). Check our Robert Wood Johnson or Howard.

The earlier you apply, the better your chances. I applied to UCLA, Yale, and Columbia sites once the application was available, got into all three.

I'm not sure about competitiveness, but apply early and you should be fine

UCLA was full in december? I think Ill have all my application stuff, LOR's, essays, and transcript in by early January. Do I still have a chance?
