Brief Profile:
Pretty much a traditional applicant. I feel I have more healthcare experience than many with over 1500 hours of paid work. Volunteer work is a little on the lighter side but I still have some good stuff.
Montana doesn\'t have a medical school so we get some preference from a handful of WICHE schools and have a set number of seats set aside for U of Washington (WWAMI).

Summary of Experience:
Rejected :(. First one... At least this one doesn\'t hurt as badly as others will because it was always a long shot for me.
Summary of Experience:
No Secondary essays!! Been small pooled since the beginning of October. I would love to have an interview here, sounds like an outstanding school
Update: I loved the school and the program. I felt like I could be very happy in both Portland and at OHSU. Sounds like the clinical training is outstanding and I love the preclinical schedule. It\'d would be nice to have time for research on the side. The only thing I didn\'t love quite so much was the student body. They were nice and accommodating, but just didn\'t seem as cohesive and close as I\'ve seen at other schools. Still I hope for an acceptance as this is one of my top choices!
Summary of Experience:
WICHE - First Interview Invite!!! So excited!
Interview: Simply amazing! The new facilities are unmatched and the students/staff are the friendliest and most helpful people ever! I could definitely see myself here. Too bad I have to wait until February 15th to hear a decision.
And...Rejected. Okay though because I was just accepted to Tulane and I would MUCH rather attend Tulane than UNR.
Summary of Experience:
Interview Invite!! I didn\'t think that would happen. So friggin excited for this opportunity!!
Update: Accepted!!!! This school was hands down an amazing experience and I have a good feeling I might be attending here next year even if other schools say \"Yes.\" I\'ve never been happier!
