***Official Thread for 2016 BSMD applicants***

VCU- Filled common app and GMED supplement. received UG and letter for selling BME. I know separate honors application was not needed. but dont know if we also had to fill separate scholarship application or not? does anyone know? anyone from from past year threads or any past year GMED applicants can comment on how it worked out for them.

@fifteenpapers so the notifications are all out by now for BU? ugh that’s disappointing
Also could you paste here what the email says?

@jhgong I called BU today and they said they would be notifying about interviews until February so they are not done yet.

@svnya123 Ok thank you so much! I was scared based on fifteenpaper’s comment…

Did all the Rutgers BS/MD interviews come out? Or they are continuing to notify next month?

@HS2DirectMed I’ve heard nothing yet for the Trustee Scholarship too.

@sonpat @teenagecrime @NJT dad @allefficace Is Albany Medical offering a choice of 3 dates (2 Fridays and a Monday)? Please confirm.
@GoldenRock @dudefromnowhere Any word from Albany after submitting Union/AMC supplement?

We submitted Union/AMC 2 weeks back and RPI/AMC about a week ago. We were told both will be processed together. Is Albany Med closed from Dec 24 thru Jan 3rd?

Anyone on this thread received interview invites from AMC for both Union and RPI?

@HS2DirectMed nothing on trustees yet either

@88Mom88 Since you have already submitted both RPI.AMC and Union/AMC, you should be getting feedback from Albany sooner. In our case it is going to be long time since we have not received AMC app or rejection for RPI nor received any notification from RPI on UG. AMC lady told, only after they know about RPI one way or other then only they will let us know the status on Union/AMC. Was the RPI/AMC prompts are different from Union/AMC?

@Dadofhskid For VCU, there is no separate application for Merit scholarship. Same status, only UG acceptance has come. Lot of marketing material for BME. No status on Honors college and BS/MD .

Application status finally changed for Penn State/Jefferson

"We will be notifying Sydney Kimmel Medical College of your candidacy, and they will be in contact with you regarding an interview at Thomas Jefferson University. "

Does anyone know the dates for the Penn State interview?

@fifteenpapers or anyone who received an email on BU interview: I got a call from BU yesterday about the interview on Jan 22 and that a confirmation email will follow. Does the email provide details on timings, location and other details. Can you please share any info as I want to make the travel arrangements. Any suggestions on hotels nearby?

@bunnicula23 congratulations! Do you mind if I ask when you submitted the app?

@Sonpat Where is this Stockton BS/MD you have applied for ? Is it in Stockton, California ?

@SahMan, could you tell us when you finished your application for BU? My son applied on the due date Nov. 15th and we have yet not heard from them. thanks

@bunnicula23 My son’s Penn state interview is on Feb. 10th

@svnya123, My son applied to Penn State on the due date Nov. 30th.

@GoldenRock Sent you a PM. Let me know if you have any Qs.

@Sam999, completed my BU App on Nov 9th.

@SahMan, thanks! that really helps. Congratulations on your interview!

anyone else who got BU interview, it would be great if you could post the date you submitted. This might help anyone looking thru this thread next year as well :slight_smile:
I looked thru last years thread and it seems most got the interview around this time but some did get in Jan.
Some posts indicated that interview notification is not based on when you completed your app but how strong your application is but it is not clear.

@Sam999 I submitted mine on nov 14 but got an interview.

@svnya123 I submitted my app sometime in late October.
