We're not required to do housing right? My parents live fairly close by
There isn't any BCM "student housing," although we do tend to congregate in the same few condos just south of the medical center. Many native Houston students live at home for part/all of medical school!We're not required to do housing right? My parents live fairly close by

UTH has student housing, but it's a wonderful magical thing (cheap, close to med center) in short supply and high demand so only a handful of their students live there.
oh, definitely no!oh haha i meant for the interview student housing
oh, definitely no!

I've been waiting on an answer from the Baylor admissions office with no luck, so I'm trying here - does Baylor accept letter packets from an undergraduate institution? My school collected my letters and I'm not sure I can send individual letters in. I emailed the office over a week ago with no response.
EDIT: I applied MSTP and I included four letters from professors and work/volunteer supervisors and two letters from PIs in the packet, so I feel like it covers the letter requirements exactly. I just can't find any indication that they actually accept letter packets.
uh i sent in a packet for just regular md so im sure u can do it for mdphd

Hey now, you're not looking so bad there yourself! Congrats on your many interviews, and here's hoping you get even more!Woaaaahhhhhh
Anyone know the number of acceptances that Baylor offers? Not matriculants like posted in MSAR, but actual offers of acceptance?
MS1 here silently lurking lol, if anyone has any questions about Baylor I am free to answer them!
I had my Baylor interview as my fourth one, so I had seen what a few of the other Texas school's interviews were like. Most of them have you at their building from around 8 - 5, sometimes shorter, for tours and curriculum information along with your actual 30 minute interviews. 9 hours can be a long time to remain focused and energetic, especially if your interviews are in the afternoon portion and there's no quick access to coffee. Baylor's interview was a breath of fresh air in that it was only around 4 or 5 hours if I remember right. I believe they also started around noon so that was also a plus. The thing with Baylor is that they are aware of how good of a school they are, and not in a stuck up kind of way. They know that you are there to showcase your reasons to be there, and as such do not try to "sell" you the school. It really speaks for itself, so don't be surprised if the feeling you get from the Baylor interview is different then you get from other schools. They started the first few hours with tours of the school and info about their curriculum and Houston in general, gave you food, then sent you off to your interviews. I remember my two interviews were relatively normal, no trick questions or anything, then afterwards you could stay for the hospital tours (both a long and short one), or just leave. In general very relaxed and not as taxing as other Texas schools.How was your interview day? More or less stressful compared to other Texas schools?
Is anyone else getting an error message when they try to log into the status check?
You definitely don't have to, I didn't go to that when I went through my interview.Do you guys think we should stay for the "optional" post-interview social at 7? After all these secondaries, I have no idea if something is truly optional nowadays.

Only students. Faculty are only there for the interview portion.Is the social with only current students or also faculty members?
Why not start with immigration and tell how that makes baylor a good fit?For the secondary, would it be best to talk about an adversity (immigrating to US; not really elaborated much anywhere in AMCAS app) or focus more on why Baylor? I've been getting conflicting thoughts on this, and really want my secondary be up to par and not make the wrong move.
