Union/Siena/Rensselaer Albany Medical College BA(BS)/MD Program

Hey did anyone else apply to these? I’m not so keen on attending because of the AMC rank, but I figured I’d apply. I got an email today from Albany (via Union) giving me a login and password to their supplemental application.

Anyone else apply?

Hey

I too got that email yesterday, what’s your take on it.
How many could have got into thru UNION. Me too Union.
Not sure, if I can make all the way into admission.
What are our hopes no. wise . 2015 they ahve 491 >381>89> 39 offered > 17 Joined.
This year. same.? Chaces are very little.

let’s discuss… good luck to your other efforts.

@dragon95

I’m assuming the numbers are fairly similar. The odds of making it toward the end is low, but there is also the fact that alot of people dont finish the supplemental

hope so.

St. Bonaventure has a similar program with GW and Buffalo and the acceptance rate is less than 5%.

Bonaventure and Siena are sister schools BTW.

When did you apply? do you know when they’ll send out the emails since I still haven’t gotten mine :((
Probably didn’t qualify though

@theawesomegirl
I applied on Nov. 15, 1 day before the Nov. 15 deadline.

Friends: Good Luck to everyone : I got Union /AMC email. Very interesting.

Hree are my Stats: UW 4.25
SAT 2290 (800 on writing),
Two Subject Tests: 760 each M2 and Chem
Seven or Eight ECs.

Are they near their expectation. I would like to put best effort if I am in a close range of selection.
If not, I can focus on other Apps.

any help/ advice.

thank you folks and wish you all Good Luck.

Sorry: I Intended to write WEIGHETED :4.25 : Not sure of UnWeighted. My school Weights: No Ranking. I guess Just fallen into Second decile of the class due to my crazy AP courses (eight in total)

Hey, I know I’m late here but I was up late freaking out about whether or not I’ll get an interview and I found this lol. I applied to the Siena/AMC program and the interviews are announced in early January- I had a normal college interview with Siena and we talked a lot about the program. As I said earlier, the interview offers will be sent in early January (on or before the 15th) and interviews will take place in February and March. Final decisions will be sent in March along with all other college admittance decisions. Hope this helps!

@hesdee
Thanks for the info!

@Elemelon
No problem! I actually just got off the phone with admissions (I was having issues viewing my application status) and she said that the letters are being sent out today- we should hear by the end of the week!!

@hesdee are they sent via email or post?

@Elemelon I believe they are sent via snail mail, unfortunately

@Elemelon
I do know for sure now that the letters are sent via snail mail, so we should be hearing within the next week. Just out of curiosity, what state are you in? I’m in Connecticut, so I expect that my letter should be here in only a few days!

@hesdee I’m in California

Check and use the thread ‘Official thread for 2016 BSMD applicants’. Folks have got the interview notification for RPI/AMC and Union/AMC via email in the past and also today.

@GoldenRock
Thanks I’ll be sure to check it out! I only applied to Siena/AMC, but it’ll definitely be interesting to take a look at.
