@GoldenRock yeah I got the rejection from Miami this morning

Got a UMiami invite for video responses. Anyone know if this is a new step this year? Does it replace the interview or is it just another step before the interview?

@GoldenRock Union/Albany or RPI/Albany Process appears to be in batches. they will continue to invite people for second round till 12/15. Bulk of RPI coming out next week. first batch Union came out yesterday. more to come out this week and next week.

Yup, got UMiami rejection, waiting for Albany and TCNJ

Any news from Drexel Med?

@steminspire same. Haven’t seen it on any other forums - my guess is it’s new.

Anyone know what form they want the video for Miami? It sounds like they want a vlog but can it be an edited video?

I have neither received an invitation nor a rejection from UMiami so far. Is anyone else in the same situation?

Yes, got the email with the video requirement for Univ of Miami. I think we can send an edited video. I too am wondering if this is an extra step this year before an interview.
@Solar7Flare did you check your spam folder? If you haven’t got any then they might be sending it in batches. You may want to call them on Monday. No rejection means you are still in the game hopefully.

Drew interview notif sent out today for undergrad; it says that theyll use it to make their decision on if we’re qualified for BA/MD program tho

U. Houston BS/MD interview came in y’day night for 1/29 or 3/4 dates.

Anyone who appled to Uconn BS/Md program?

@goldenrock congratulations! Is UHouston instate only?
@cresent yes I applied to UConn. I am OOS. What about you? Haven’t got anything from them yet. Have you?

@GoldenRock Received interview invitation for UHouston. Are you going on 29th or 4th?

@goaltobemd U. Houston allows all states. Being in CA, every MD program is OOS since CA does not have a single BS/MD program.
@Solar7Flare Not decided yet on interview date

@goaltobemd, @cresent I applied to UCONN SPiM. I am OOS.
I received invitation to interview from UH last night.

@aichoux what exactly did the Drew email say? I havn’t received anything acceptance nor rejection?

If I submitted my TCNJ accelerated program application in late November, when do you think I will hear back for the interview? I got an email saying they received the application but they haven’t sent me the login info for TCNJ “PAWS” to see if they received everything.

Hey, does anyone know if sat scores are still a major factor for admission into HPME, after students make it past the first round (to get the actual application itself). Thanks.

Did anyone hear back from UMKC regarding early notification (deadline Oct 15) interviews? I heard they let us know in December, but I’m not sure about specific date.

@APScholar18 “After an initial review of your application, you have been selected to participate in the next step of the admissions process which includes having an interview with a member of the Drew University Office of College Admissions. This interview will provide us with an opportunity to further review your qualifications as a candidate for this accelerated program.”

@crescent i also applied to spim, OOS; havent heard a thing
