1/15When did you interview?
1/15When did you interview?
Not sure, wonder if there was one last year.Looking back through the posts, it looks like people are only now getting waitlisted. Maybe it's a short list?
Checked last year's forum and yes they did have a waitlist. Some were placed on it back in the Fall of that cycle. Haven't seen anyone WL that early for this cycleNot sure, wonder if there was one last year.
Same, just have to wait and see, I guess. The checklist given to me is just like as I were accepted which is strange. FAFSA, grad-loans. It says we have to fill it out, but I don't know if I should start a grad loan app without any official acceptance, so I am confused.Checked last year's forum and yes they did have a waitlist.

I saw that too. It seems pretty odd. It may warrant an email to the adcom just to see what's up.Same, just have to wait and see, I guess.

So for WL people, you must complete the checklist by the beginning of March or so as the first group of acceptances also have early March as their deadline for deposits/ checklist. Those in the groups of students accepted who did not complete the checklist will then cause the waitlist students to get off the list. If for some reason the waitlist students don't get in this Fall of 2024, they are guaranteed a spot in the Fall of 2025.you were right got a WL through my email. I'm just curious about how many people actually make it off the waitlist.
Well that's reassuring-ish. Thanks for clarifying this for usSo for WL people, you must complete the checklist by the beginning of March or so as the first group of acceptances also have early March as their deadline for deposits/ checklist.

I was confused too so I had to call and clarify this with them this morning as well. Good luck this cycle everyone!
I got WL but was told I was accepted; there was just not any seat available for me at the moment. Not sure if they filled all their seats yet. But by the sound of it, it seems like they have.Anyone that interviewed on 1/15 or 1/18 get their A call yet?
I interviewed on 1/18 and still haven’t heard anything. I believe they still are conducting interviews so I don’t think all the seats are full, and if the seats were full I would imagine they would let all of us who are still waiting for reply know immediately that there were no more seats.I got WL but was told I was accepted; there was just not any seat available for me at the moment.

Here is the thing that is confusing me. I was told verbatim that "the committee voted to accept you, but there is not an available seat for you at the moment." So I'm not sure what is going on.I agree. I remember checking for sooner interview dates and saw that there were slots on 1/29 and also 3-4 dates in February for interviews. I find it hard to believe that they would still interview weekly if they are full; unless they anticipate a lot of accepted students deferring at the end of the cycle so they want a decent WL to pull from.
All speculation with a pinch of neuroticism.
Did you write the ad com an email asking?Here is the thing that is confusing me. I was told verbatim that "the committee voted to accept you, but there is not an available seat for you at the moment." So I'm not sure what is going on.
They take COMATs, they are a percentage of the overall rotation grade (percentage changes each year.)Weird question but do LUCOM students take shelf exams during rotations? I could not find anything in the academic catalog with regard to shelf exams. I could find it being part of the grading for each rotation pretty easily in other schools where I've interviewed at so I am curious. Any current OMSIII-IV students trolling this forum please reply!
There was an exemption process for my year’s rotations, but from what I understand this is going away (if you want it, lobby for it with admin). It’s a lottery system so whatever number you draw that’s the order you get to choose a site.Hello all, I have a few questions for the current OMS people.
Can we give preference for certain core rotation sites or will they be randomly assigned with no exceptions aside from family, relationships, etc. ?
Additionally, what is the best core rotation site for most possible experience to be gained (high patient traffic, abundant residents, etc.) ?
Lastly, can we choose our location for the 4th year clinical rotation site ? For example, if I have family in SC, can I attend rotation in that area?
Apologies if there are obvious answers to these questions but I can’t seem to find anything about this on the site or and online forums. Thanks!
Last year they went through their entire waitlist.you were right got a WL through my email. I'm just curious about how many people actually make it off the waitlist.

no, and they havent responded to my email from yesterdayAny decisions so far today?
Did you actually speak to the director of admissions?I'm confused. Was told at interview libery requires COMLEX 2 PE to graduate, but I thought there was no more 2 PE, so... the director of admissions says it is still required?
i interviewed 1/15 and heard back yesterday i was waitlisted. I called and they said they accepted the max amount of students but if your on the waitlist you have a good chance of getting taken off of it.Has anyone who interviewed on 1/18 heard anything?

Have an interview coming up, its my first one so I'm very nervous. Any words of advice from those that have interviewed here?
I interviewed on 1/18 and haven't heard anything back. They said in the interview it would be 30 days max but I know people who interviewed on 1/15 have heard back. Should I email or call or just keep waiting it out?
It says "provisional status" from Nov 15. I guess that just means nothing really.My decision populated 3 days before the email. Go to your myLU, assist, general information, applicant status.

same“Waitlist offered”
I know those that were accepted need it done by March 1st. If not they forfeit their acceptance. So long as waitlisted people have theirs complete, they could potentially get an acceptance. They didn’t give me a due date, but I know for certain mine won’t be done by March 1st.For those of us who are waitlisted, when do we need to complete the admission checklist by?
Off of the waitlist! Just recieved the official A!Didn't someone say they exhaust their waitlist every year?
