Summary of Application Experience

Submitted AMCAS first possible day (June 2, 2004).
AMCAS switched to 'verification in process' on June 9, 2004.
AMCAS verified on June 14, 2004.

Turn around time for Secondary Applications was about 1 day for MCW and SLU, a bit longer (~1 week) for Pritzker, Stritch and Rush due to their numerous essays.

MCW interview October 1st, received acceptance letter October 9th. Declined acceptance after received Loyola acceptance. MCW even gave my deposit back. They were super nice and I know I would've enjoyed being there...just that Loyola was my #1.

Loyola interview January 4th, received acceptance about 1 week later.

Loyola was my top choice and is where I am attending, SSOM Class of 2009.
