So. BU has a 10-year expiration date on ALL prerequisites (not just the science ones). No WAY I could get all that done within one cycle. Withdrew my application, with a strongly worded letter to the dean. (Yes, I was that person. I thought it might have a little weight behind it, since Im an alum, but apparently not.)

- Summary of Experience:
According to the LECOM portal, I am under review (as of 5/30/18). Waitlisted here two years ago. Either they completely lost my application this cycle, or they hate reapplicants with vastly improved MCAT scores. ???????????
Guess they found my application. Got the end of cycle rejection letter today. LECOM was far from the top of my list, but this is still a head-scratcher.

- Submitted: 06/21/2017
- Secondary Completed: 07/31/2017
- Interview Invite: 08/18/2017
- Interview Attended: 11/01/2017
- Waitlisted: 11/18/2017
- Accepted: No
- Rejected: No
- Summary of Experience:
My interview was originally scheduled for 9/11, but was cancelled due to the hurricane. I called their office x3 and emailed x2 over the next two weeks after their facebook page said their office was reopened to reschedule my interview, but never got a response from them. I was finally able to use their portal to reschedule for the first available date, which was 11/1. Hated the school. Thankfully, I already had an acceptance when I got the waitlist letter. Withdrew with no regrets.

My first acceptance, two days after my 40th birthday!
Declining this was essentially a no-brainer, but it was still hard (as evidenced by the three weeks it took me to do it, despite the promise of getting $1500 back from my deposit). I was pretty sentimentally attached to UNE. Maine is nice, campus is gorgeous, staff and students are awesome.
