I was able to register but everything is booked up until January. was anyone who recently received interview able to register for an earlier date?

I'd keep checking the portal every day until an earlier date opens up! Chances are someone will cancel their interview before January.

In-person was showing January dates. How do we know the available dates if I want to change to an earlier date? Virtual showed dates in November, but when I selected on register, it showed me the January dates Do we need to unregister the current date and then register the date

That’s how their system is

 

[RB26]

I signed up for a January Zoom slot. Do they email you if an earlier slot opens or do I just need to keep my eyes peeled?

When do people usually find out about their A, waitlist, or R after interviewing? Does anyone know how often the adcom committee meets?

I interviewed Aug 25th and received a phone call with an A on Sept 1st. Such a great experience thus far and definitely at the top of my list!

 

[sonder88]

Has anyone from 9/8 interview heard back yet?

[Premedguru656]

Anyone else hear back from 9/8? Those of you that have - did your portal reflect a change?

Congrats to those that got the A!

There was about a ~2 business day delay from the call that I received. Portal status change about two business days later with an email. Official letter in the mail about 10 days later which was a great touch.

Does no Friday phone call = waitlist or r?

 

[nontradgogetter]

You aren’t waitlisted or rejected until they tell you that you are

 

[kayakh smith]

I received, "The Admissions Committee has not selected you for an interview at this time." Does this mean I have been rejected? Did anyone receive this kind of email? Thanks.

 

[Premedguru656]

Could a current ACOM student share what medical equipment they were required to purchase before orientation?

 

[cmd0056]

Anyone hear anything today?

 

[premed1233]

Anyone hear anything today?

Not yet

 

[premed1233]

Does anyone from the 9/8 interview know if it's guaranteed that we would be hearing something back by today?

I think they said we would? But I don’t think it was ever guaranteed.

Does it have anything after the message? From my experience, you can either get a complete rejection or an interview hold, depending on the wording.

[mnovak]

Rising OMS-3, currently in dedicated for boards. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have about ACOM, Dothan, or HPSP. Wishing you all the best of luck this cycle!

Good evening,
I just sent you a PM with some questions.

 

[mnovak]

Anybody attending in person interview at ACOM?

when is your interview?

I am Sep 29th in person

 

[mnovak]

Sure

Hey Can I pm you about your experience during the interview.

 

[ruralfistula]

Hey Can I pm you about your experience during the interview.

Sure. That goes for anyone else too.

In case anyone else is lurking and is curious about general opinion. My opinion of this school before attending the interview was 7/10, and after the interview easily 10/10. I was incredibly impressed and will have nothing but positive things to say about ACOM even if I decide not to matriculate here.

 

[Premedguru656]

For those who received A's in the past week, have you received an email about the deposit and other information?

It took about 2ish weeks for me to receive the deposit information via email.

You can set up a chrome extension that will notify you when an earlier slot opens up. I forgot the name of the extension I used, but it worked out for me. Interviewed 9/22, has anyone heard back yet? Based on what others have said, should be soon so was wondering.

 

[AuntieAnne]

any first year student that I can pm? I have some questions!

Yes feel free !

 

[sonder88]

Are any current acom students willing to chat about their experience at acom?
