It is about a 2-2.5 hour, straight drive on I-80. How much more is it to fly into Cedar Rapids?Is it difficult to get to the campus from Des Moines airport? It's significantly cheaper for me to fly into that airport than to Cedar Rapids, but definitely not worth the extra savings if it's too far/difficult journey
I made the drive this weekend, about 1.75 hours. Not a bad drive at all.Is it difficult to get to the campus from Des Moines airport? It's significantly cheaper for me to fly into that airport than to Cedar Rapids, but definitely not worth the extra savings if it's too far/difficult journey

I would say you will hear from them this week. I feel that Carver moves fast.I just submitted my primary here Friday. How long does it take to get the secondary typically?
Well, your primary needs to get verified first. Once that happens, I'd guess you'll get a secondary almost within a day of that.I just submitted my primary here Friday. How long does it take to get the secondary typically?

I'm actually an M1, but I'm sure renting isnt too bad.About $200 cheaper. I'm also under 25 so the whole car rental thing might be a little more expensive.
Yay good to hear! Did you just rent a car from the airport?

yepp and I don't like ittttttIt's been a quiet week.
Any advice out there. I've been complete at all the schools I applied to since the middle part of July and haven't heard a thing from anywhere. I got a 509 MCAT score. 3.8 undergrad GPA and 4.0 graduate GPA in a thesis program. I cant help but think that there are two possibilities. One- I put something toxic in my AMCAS application and no one will touch me. Or two (which is less likely, but still plausible) gnomes log on to my account and delete anything from any medical schools.
More than a handful, not 40 though haha. I didn't set up an DO application and now I'm kinda kicking myself for itDid you apply broadly?
It's not too late if you think you need to apply to some DO programsMore than a handful, not 40 though haha. I didn't set up an DO application and now I'm kinda kicking myself for it

Any current students at this school who could discribe their first year experience?
Awesome. So far it's been amazing. The faculty genuinely care about us and the overall attitude of the students is one of collaboration, not competition. DM for specific questions.Any current students at this school who could discribe their first year experience?

hey there! Megabus takes you from des moines to iowa city for ~20 bucks. You can fly to chicago for really cheap this time of year. I'm flying from LA to Chicago for 100 dollars round trip. From there, I take megabus to iowa city for 20 bucks as well. just an ideaIs it difficult to get to the campus from Des Moines airport?

don't think it would it negatively affect your app, but what is the purpose of the visit?Would it be worth telling them I'll be in the area (DMU) on a certain date, since Im from the NE? Would it negatively impact my app or not have an effect?

If you do e-mail about an in the area, should you include why you're there in state? My sister who lives there just had a baby so I'll be a town over early October, didn't get my application complete until Monday and not sure how long review takes. I'm coming from the West Coast so would like to knock it all out together.
Congrats! When were you complete?First II earlier this afternoon! OOS, URM, LizzyM: 63. Very excited!
I wouldn't expect much, but I would just be cautious. There's probably some threads of in-area requests though. If they cannot meet your accommodations I would at least try to visit Carver for a campus tour or something like thatI was wondering the same thing. Would it be foolish to say im interviewing at another school?
