Colleges and Universities A-Z Penn State

<p>Did anyone who applied to this program get accepted to PSU yet? I applied in the first week of November and still have not heard back yet.</p>

2

<p>ive never even heard of it… what is it?</p>

3

<p>this program gives you acceptance to medical school as a high school student. </p>

<p>seriously no one applied???</p>

4

<p>I applied late November and my PennState status finally changed to (essentially) “We recieved everything and we are now reviewing your application”. I applied to a few others as well, and for most of them, I think the college accepts to the school normally and then tells you later if you got an interview for the BS/MD program.</p>

5

<p>thanks man. I’m just surprised that they haven’t made a decision for undergrad yet.</p>

<p>Who else applied?</p>

6

<p>I got an interview for the penn state-jefferson program, but didn’t get a decision for penn state undergrad yet.</p>

7

<p>Hi doctor2b,
I have my interview scheduled on Feb 10. When is yours?</p>

8

<p>Just wondering, but why would you want to get that guarantee? The med school you’re guaranteed to get into isn’t good whatsoever…</p>

9

<p>what are the pros/cons of the 6 year med program?? is it difficult to maintain the 3.5 average? is the work manageable?</p>

10

<p>I didn’t find it difficult to maintain program requirements, and if you come in with AP creds the program is much easier</p>

11

<p>do we need to apply to schreyer’s honors college for this program? or can i just not apply to schreyer’s honors college and still submit my penn state accelerated medical program application? will it look better if i apply to the schreyer’s honors college?</p>

12

<p>bump…10char</p>

13

<p>with med school tuition at $50,000 per year and oos college tuition over $30,000 who wouldn’t want 2 fewer years of paying tuition</p>

14

<p>The accelerated medical program and schreyer’s honors college are mutually exclusive. You can’t be in both.</p>

15

<p>Just to confirm, i DONT have to apply to both then? if so, i am only applying to the med program.</p>

16

<p>If you’re looking to Schreyer’s honor college as a backup plan in the event you are not accepted in to the accelerated medical program, then you need to apply seperately to Schreyer’s (by the end of November).</p>

17

<p>did anyone get an interview?</p>

18

<p>i did, scheduled for feb 8</p>

19

<p>Would you be so kind as to say whether the e-mail was from Penn state or from Jefferson?</p>
