<p>Does anybody know the stats for how many get interviewed v. actually accepted? Also, does getting an HPME interview essentially guarantee you a spot at Northwestern undergrad?</p>

2

<p>bump please...</p>

<p>i want to know to... i got a letter today saying -- "I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you an interview for the Honors Program in Medical Education... etc..."</p>

<p>What are the stats for those who were offered interviews?</p>

<p>my stats:
2270 on SAT; 35 on ACT; 800 on Chem and Math II, 740 on Physics; 4.0 unweighted GPA, All A's (4.566 weighted)</p>

<p>i thought my essays were fine and my recs were great... i guess i just wasn't the type of applicant they want.. that's ok.. it's just a program (i still have the school to be accepted/rejected from)</p>

4

<p>^peytoncline...yea i was so surprised that someone from my school today got rejected as well...he probably had similar stats to you. I think you have a great shot at getting in to the regular school though!</p>

5

<p>Haha, with those stats getting rejected, I don't even know why I applied then. I wasn't too surprised with my rejection anyway. Oh well, it's not like it's a huge deal, like getting into a college.</p>

6

<p>^Yeah, that's right. I'm not too concerned. To be honest, I did kind of throw the application together at the last second (a couple days before the deadline) because I was so caught up with other college application stuff (which I thought was more important). If I get into Northwestern, I'll be a very happy camper.</p>

<p>No one should fret about getting rejected from HPME. It's probably the toughest program to get into in the entire nation. A friend of mine got into Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Stanford, yet didn't even get an interview to HPME.</p>

8

<p>Peytoncline, you'll get into NU with those stats I believe that won't be a problem.</p>

<p>My friend got an interview for HPME, he has a 4.6 and 2380. He got accepted EA to Yale but if he gets into HPME I think he'd rather go to NU instead.</p>

9

<p>Shoot. I have similar stats. Almost exactly the same.</p>

10

<p>oh man, this is scary. i'm still waiting</p>

11

<p>Is HPME harder to get into than Harvard, Princeton or Yale?</p>

<p>and How many people does HPME accept?</p>

12

<p>HPME accepted 35 out of 800(pr-qualifed), about 4%, HYP accepted 8~9 %, STATs at same level, HPME required whole day in campus interview, so HPME can pick up the ones they want more precisely.</p>

13

<p>Like I said, it's harder to get into. You have to apply just to get an application lol.</p>

14

<p>did anyone get in?</p>

15

<p>^well, ~30-40 people get into HPME every year, so i'd assume so</p>

16

<p>I was surprised I even got the app after the prequal. But was rejected back in february. After seeing the super low acceptance rate though, I don't feel bad at all. Haha.</p>

17

<p>i got into NW undergrad... but no mention of HPME. Did anybody hear from HPME??</p>

18

<p>Does anyone know how/when HPME students will be notified?? I thought it would come with the Northwestern admission.</p>

19

<p>Yeah I just got the admit letter to undergrad, I think we will receive a separate letter for HPME.</p>

20

<p>I was interviewed for HPME and just got my digital acceptance letter to Northwestern. I am eager to hear from HPME! Will the letter be in the general undergrad acceptance packet or will it come separately? I am extremely eager to hear back.
If there are any current HPME students who can chime in as to how acceptances are delivered, please respond.</p>
