<p>How many essays are needed to apply to the guaranteed medical program? I see as many as 4 needed? Is that right? And what are the deadlines for applying to each of the colleges.....honors, guaranteed medical, etc?</p>
<p>According to their catalog</p>
<p>Guaranteed admissions to the school of medicine Nov15
Guaranteed admission to health science programs other than medicine Nov15
Scholarship consideration Dec 1st
Regular Decision Jan 15</p>
<p>Thanks raclut. Do you also happen to know how many essays are needed?</p>
<p>Best is to call the honors college.
I spoke with them and it seems you first have to apply for admission to the college, then to the honors college, and then for the guaranteed admission.
I know there are two essays for the honors college but we are not at the point yet in regards to what needs to be completed for the third part , guaranteed admission.</p>
<p>So first get admission to vcu, then to the honors college only then can you be considered for guaranteed med program.</p>
<p>The instructions are laid out online at : <a href=“https://www.pubapps.vcu.edu/honors/forms/ga/instructions.aspx[/url]”>https://www.pubapps.vcu.edu/honors/forms/ga/instructions.aspx</a></p>
<p>The essay info is stated as:</p>
<p>Attach a typed 200-250 word essay on each of the following topics to your online application:</p>
<p>*Comment on your motivation for, and interest in, medicine.
*Discuss one thing about you that is unique and that has not been addressed anywhere else in this application.</p>
<p>Also, you will be completing the regular application for admissions AND the Honors College application for the Guaranteed Admissions to Med School. Both must be done by November 15.</p>
<p>Thanks for the updates and the links. So it does look
Ike 4 essays…hmm.</p>
