Withdrew from middle third IS waitlist on 6/29, had to commit to my only acceptance by 7/1.

 

[liutimot]

Are there any deadlines to register for orientation and for classes?

 

[VTDSPMed]

I'm guessing two weeks from now is going to be one of the last real "movements" since it's after their CTE deadline. Might have a few spots open.

Do we suspect for there to be any IS movement here past CTE? I know from the VA schools that UVA's and VCU's CTE deadlines already occurred, so for some reason I don't there will be much movement at all

I noticed the EVMS financial aid portal updated with federal loan awards, did anyone receive any scholarship award information? I don’t see any but not sure if they put that in yet or I just missed out

Where did you see the federal loans ? I can’t find them

Ok I found the amounts on the “lifetime awards “ tab and in “distribution “ tab . Yet , I don’t see anywhere where I can go in and “accept” them . Did you find that ?

 

[LeGOATJames23]

Does anyone here know when our class schedule will be given to us?

I also can’t find anywhere to accept them. Maybe they are still in the process of getting it updated?

 

[M&L]

has anyone found out the "accept" button?

 

[M&L]

Ok guys , the “accept “ tab is there . Everything is good to go ....

 

[rukia013]

As early as orientation and as late as day 1 of class when they go over the syllabus (the schedule is different on a daily basis and subject to change at anytime throughout the course).

Ah ok, appreciate the response. Would you mind giving a brief overview of what the exam schedule is like?

I support this question ))

The curriculum has changed some since my class went through it (since we were the guinea pig class for the new curriculum) so I'm not sure of the duration of each course but in general you'll have 1 midterm and 1 final for each course (unless the course is really long...I think Heart/Lung/Kidney was 8 weeks long and had 2 midterms and 1 final). All exams are curated from retired questions from the NBME question bank (NBME administers the Step exams) and are taken at the testing center(~10min walk from campus).

so, roughly, are we talking an exam every 3-4 weeks?

For the most part, yes! It's a lot better than the class of 2019; I remember they had 10 exams in the month of October (Y I K E S) since they were on the old curriculum which was subjects-based. During your first semester you will have 2 courses (anatomy + foundational science) but starting with the spring semester and onwards for the rest of M1 and M2 years you will only have one course at a time so it's very doable

Interest in joining the upcoming class of 2023? Or joining the masters program? What did they tell you?

 

[medicdoc123]

Does anyone know if the CTE deadline tomorrow is at a certain time (ie 5 PM or by midnight)?

 

[nvnsm22]

Hey ya’ll! Got an admission offer from EVMS yesterday morning at 8:45 AM! Female, OOS, middle third of waitlist.

Email!

I would guess midnight? Technically it's not specified so midnight 11:59 pm would be reasonable.

 

[Sats]

Any acceptances?

 

[mariposas905]

I wouldn't expect any more waitlist movement at any school at this point.

VCU is still moving though - I'm pretty sure someone got accepted today off the waitlist.
