Summary of Application Experience
Also interviewed at Marian but was rejected post-interview. I truly question their feedback.
What I found most surprising is how expensive the application process is, even when my apps were covered by the fee waiver and FAP helped with the MCAT. If you're a low income student such as myself, you will need to apply narrower and more strategically. I'm grateful my first choice accepted me (and were my second interview). Otherwise I'd only have money for 1 more interview. I will be using the left over money for deposits and don't know how i'll afford moving.

Secondary Completed: No
Interview Invite: No
Interview Attended: No
Waitlisted: No
Accepted: No
Rejected: No
Summary of Experience:
Decided not to complete a secondary.
Summary of Experience:
Rejected Pre-Interview. I know a few other people that were rejected outright too. I think they are very committed to finding students that fit their primary care ambitions. My intent being psychiatry may have turned them off.
Summary of Experience:
Initially I applied here because of their research opportunities. I will be withdrawing now that I've been accepted to my top choice.
Summary of Experience:
It's a good school close to home, but I ultimately decided that I wouldn't attend an interview if invited because I believe Western, which has already accepted me, has better clinical rotations. I will be withdrawing soon.
Summary of Experience:
Happiest day of my life when I got that letter saying I was accepted. I will be attending this program and will not be interviewing at any other Osteopathic program.
