I'm dual applying HPSP and would like the contact information as well! Thank you! Much appreciated!
Just letting everyone know that I received a complete email today and I submitted everything by 7/2/17. I also did not ask for a complete email so it seems that they will send them out anyway. Good luck everyone!
Can you send me the information for the Dean of Admissions for USUHS?Sent!

I stuck with what was on the online form which actually worked with two of my essays but I had to cut down on one of them to meet the limit. Didn't want a minor issue of length to hurt my concluding sentence.Just a minor question on the character/word limit for the USUHS Secondaries. It says on one of their PDFs that there is a 200 word maximum. However, on the Google Form when you actually submit it online, there's a 1300 character limit. Should we abide by the shorter one (which would most likely end up being the 200 word maximum)?
Applicant ~3000 interview about 600 and 300 offers made for 171 spots. probably not what you were looking for huh? Just realized that. I don't know what the average applicant stats are. The MSAR gives ranges for gpa and mcat though. 10th percentile gpa is 3.33 and 3.23 sgpa. 10th percentile MCAT is 503. Didn't really answeer your questionDoes anyone know what the usual total applicant pool statistics are for USUHS? (not the accepted stats not acceptance rate, I found those online).
Not exactly, thank you though. I have the percentiles from MSAR but they only have it for accepted and matriculated students unfortunately.Applicant ~3000 interview about 600 and 300 offers made for 171 spots. probably not what you were looking for huh?

Do you have any family members that served? My dad served for decades and then was medically dischargedHey Everyone, I'm applying to USU this cycle and I'm working on the essays. For the third essay, essay prompt above, I was wondering if anyone had some advice. It says to talk about a quality or experience that can help you relate to the military and veteran population. I'm at a loss for what to put. I've had some struggles in my life, but nothing exceptional. I've never done or experience anything that could compare to what veterans have gone through and I feel like it is arrogant to even try. How are you all approaching this question?
H_Scheck has a good point. Really any exposure to military medicine will help. I personally haven't had a lot in college since I'm not ROTC but I began with some from earlier and went into a bunch of civilian exposure to diversity in medicine that I could compare and contrast.Do you have any family members that served? My dad served for decades and then was medically discharged
Has your app been verified by amcas? I called USUHS yesterday and they were able to confirm that they had my secondary and everything except for my primary since it just hadn't been verified. Once that happens, according to my recruiter, then the app will be reviewed.still haven't received a completion email yet!

My grandfather fought in WWII and my grandmother was an army nurse. They both died before I was born. My uncle was in the navy, but we're not super close. I have ancestors who fought in the civil war and the revolutionary war.Do you have any family members that served? My dad served for decades and then was medically discharged

Where would be a good starting point for someone with no prior military service or knowledge of military medicine to learn about it and make an honest answer for the secondary questions?
If you know anyone in the military or ex-military, medical field or not, try to pick their brain. Ask them what they liked, didn't like, why they joined, etc. Think about why you're interested in the military in general, not just medical school.Where would be a good starting point for someone with no prior military service or knowledge of military medicine to learn about it and make an honest answer for the secondary questions?

IIs should be coming pretty soon right? Just checked out last year's thread and they went out around this time
I just received an email concerning my application. They requested some information, so it appears like things are getting close.IIs should be coming pretty soon right? Just checked out last year's thread and they went out around this time
Same here. Asked for clarification of some negative aspects of my application. Hopefully my response will smooth things over. At least they didn't straight reject. Ha haI just received an email concerning my application. They requested some information, so it appears like things are getting close.
I received one about a week after I submitted my secondary. You can also email your admissions counselor to ask for confirmation.Did people receive a "secondary complete/received" email when they submitted?

Well since you have to do stuff during the summer prior to matriculation, probably pretty strict. You won't have time to finish undergraduate courses before matriculation if you're not done by then, I wouldn't think.Anyone know how strict they are with the "have a degree by June 1st 2018" question on the secondary? I go to a quarter system school, so I won't have graduated by then. I sent them an email but they haven't replied....
Can any current students talk about how they are taught here? Are most of your lectures available online like other schools? Or is it strictly in person learning?
All the lectures are available via video capture recordings. Some students attend lecture, some watch from home, and some come to school but work in the library during lectures. Labs are most often mandatory, as are a few lectures.

I hope none of you guys are transgender students lol... I think USUHS can no longer admit if thats the case...

Honestly it's only a handful of people in the whole army, this policy affects about as many people as a policy would stating that nobody over 7'6" can continue.It is particularly concerning for any current transgender students that attend. This policy could potentially kick them out of the school and that must just be heart breakingly stressful for students already under a lot of stress.
