Summary of Application Experience
Working on a four secondaries right now and awaiting the arrival of the rest. I am hoping to get in this time around!
Almost done with all of my secondaries. I am just waiting to hear from the U of Minnesota because they are being very slow. I have two essays to complete for Rosalind Franklin and Boston University and for Creighton to post their secondary and I am DONE!!! Time to sit back and wait.
Just got my first two interviews at Tulane and Georgetown University!! Never thought those two schools would be first.
Just added another interview to the list...nothing like a little vaccation in Hawaii for an interview, especially during winter in Minnesota
Interview at Georgetown was wonderful and the school is just awesome. I got home from the interview to find an interview invite from Minnesota which I am excited about!
I just got two acceptances this week which I am very excited about but I have no idea how I am going to choose which one to attend. But I am very happy to be making this decision instead of hoping to be accepted somewhere like last time I applied.
It is the end of January and I am still waiting on a decision from Boston U and Rosalind Franklin. BU said I would have to wait until March to hear from them again and RFU it suppose to be meeting at the end of January and sending out more acceptances. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
So I have made my final decision and will be attending the U of M in the fall. I am really excited about this as it is a really good school and being an instate student is going to save me a ton of money! I am just so thrilled that I am finally going to be able to go to med school and become a doctor!
