interview on 2/22
Congrats on the interviews and good luck!
Hopefully you'll fall in love with the school as much as I did!
interview on 2/22
For those who have been accepted and are planning to attend, there is a WCU-COM Class 2015 facebook group.
Does anyone know if WCU-COM students can apply for HPSP (armed services scholarship) since the school is only provisionally accredited?
I'm pretty sure a few of my classmates are getting military scholarships... I can get details if you'd like.

interview invite today for 3/11. someone said that only 70 people or so have interviewed so far..is that true?
First off, congrats on your interview.
On my interview day, there were only 5 people (each from a Southern state). Dr. Weir made it a point to mention that they only invite the people they want. I was accepted and I'm pretty sure the other four were as well. I've also heard interviews weren't handed out until later (correct me if I'm wrong).
One negative that I noticed was that you have a lot of large upfront costs due to FA being released during the second week of school. Some were a new laptop, the textbook software, and various other things. Unless you are out of school making money or have some saved up, these costs would be difficult to meet after the $3000 deposit. This is only something I didn't like.
The facilities and campus are very nice. I also like that they have an Oral medicine course (the goal is to provide physicians to underserved areas). Completely random, but I also noticed a Shenanigans on the way into school lol (which is a plus).

Hello everyone,
I have a question. I was accepted on Jan 12 and have sent my seat deposit. When I talked to Dr. Lovins he said that more information was to come in the mail. I have not received that yet and was wondering what it is and how long it takes to get.
Thanks
So... what came out of the coca inspection?
I was a late applicant this year as I wasn't initially going to apply since becoming a father in December, but decided to give it a shot after all. I just got an email today inviting me to an interview! I'm very excited and can't wait to see the facilities. Anybody have any tips or advice for the interview day?
Congrats on the interview! This place was fantastic to visit! The staff and faculty and students are incredibly nice! One thing that Dr. Weir told us in our interview group in November was that, more or less, you're there because they WANT you to be part of the school & the interview is just to check that you aren't psycho or something like that. I found a professor and a friend to ask me interview questions so that I wouldn't be as nervous when I got there.
Good luck!!
So I'm assuming me being a psycho is going to pose a problem?
I'm applying to medical school this year for 2012 class and am considering the HPSP. Do you know if it's true that the military can pick your speciality? Also, may I ask which recruiter you have spoken with?Hey y'all. I'm currently on Army HPSP. If you need any information on military scholarships/incentives let me know.
Congrats to those that have been accepted!
I'm applying for 2012 and am just wondering if any of you accepted were in the situation I am in...
I'm not the perfect candidate. I have a lower GPA (3.1), average MCAT (25), volunteer work, honor societies, and lots of ECs. I made a big mistake in my academics that really hurt my GPA, but I retook the classes and made all A's the entire time. I've also been an RN for the past 8 years. I just worry that all this may not be good enough for William Carey and was hoping some of you might be able to give me some hope with your stories of trials.
I know that DO programs forgive grades, which I am taking advantage of, but I retook a couple classes 3 times before I got an A. Any of you like me?
Thanks and congratulations to everyone.

It seems that they are very fast and efficient in their decision making process.
Wm Carey is one of my top choices but for a variety of reasons, I just got my secondary in before the deadline and will be interviewing there April 19th. I look forward to the interview and seeing the school.
Good luck!!!! WHen accepted, join the Facebook group!
I see on the WCU-COM website that they teach with a practice based learning model.....is this similar to problem based learning?
Sorry to ask a dumb question on here, but even google couldn't answer it for me.
Has anyone received registration materials yet?
Just got the call! I'm in!
Anybody received their registration packet yet?
