Thread for BSMD 2020-2021 Applicants (Part 1)

Its Adelphi interview for Upstate and the decision is not yet notified. We had separate interview for Honors couple weeks ago and that decision came out positive.

Same

Has anyone still not gotten the Pitt GAP supplement email after receiving the letter?

Anyone receive rutgers ba/md interview invite yet?

Not yet!!

Email said interview invites will be extended from 12/16-12/18

Not yet, but they will be coming from 16-18th if you made it to next level.

Does any one know what happends if your application goes to Suny Upstate through two undergrad feeder school? I know that Suny Upstate will only take one interview. I just did not know if student is given a choice to pick or Suny Upstate Medical decides the college for them?

There was definitely supplemental application “ACPHS Joint Degree Application” with one essay prompt addressing 4 questions. It was sent soon after the CA is submitted. It was due Nov 15th for us. (instructions said 400-500 words, but the prompt allowed up to 1000 words)

We are in exact same situations. But looks like few students are getting supplements from APCHS also.

For Syracuse applicants-

Unlike some other feeder schools for Upstate,

There is no supplemental application required by Syracuse University to be initially considered for the Accelerated Scholars Program.

You will know if they write to you for permission to send your application to Upstate as noted by BGKYMom (or when you receive supplement from Upstate itself)

Upstate makes the decision on UG school and you can’t appeal it.

Student will NOT be given choice for UG feeder school. Upstate will choose one for you based whatever criteria they have set. I heard its relative ranking feeders put on your application along with other yield protection strategies as each school has about 5 seats (except UAlbany which is a bit more).

Still waiting

We received a postal mail from Pitt informing daughter that she can apply for GAP medicine. However, we haven’t received the email containing the credential to complete the application yet. Hopefully will receive it soon.

Good luck to all who applied to Pitt GAP for medicine.

Congrats to your daughter!
When did you receive the postal mail?

We received it yesterday but I did not check mail until today. The letter stated 12/08 so maybe mail was slow to delivered.

Is TCNJ done too?

Just received interview invite email for Rutgers/NJMS

Can we delete colleges that we longer want to continue with? My daughter withdrawn from one of the undergrad college. Can she delete that from Commonapp to add more space to another college? She is planning on adding 2 more good undergrads.

Also another bs/md college that she got admission from undergrad but she doesn’t want to submit their bs/md application. Can she delete that too?

Congratulations.
