Anyone know if TAMU or EnMed gives out merit scholarships?

EnMed mentioned they have their own scholarship committee so I would assume they do

 

[Futuredocplz531]

Has any regular md people gotten any scholarship offers?

 

[bluejayturnedag]

TAMU does. I dont know about ENMED since it is a newer program but we should assume some of the TAMU scholarships are available for ENMED also.

Scholarships are general for the medical program. There are no separate merit scholarships for EnMed.

There is an Endowed scholarship for ENMED with a multi requirement.

EnMed Celebrates First Endowed Scholarship

Engineering Medicine (EnMed), Texas A&M University’s innovative engineering medicine track in partnership with Houston Methodist Hospital, received its first scholarship endowment at a recent Texas A&M Foundation event. The Spletter Memorial Scholarship, given by Rick and Kathy Spletter ’79, is...

Yes, that's military only.

Does anyone know the last date of interviews? Or the last date they send out interviews?

OOS, was given a scholarship which bumped me down to IS tution (yay)!

TAMU COM students: What's your yearly tution? I've gotten conflicting numbers ranging from 15k/year to 21k/year. I think its currently just under 20k/year, correct?

Current EnMed students if you're still reading this thread and are willing to answer this question, how much does rent cost around the TMC? I want to figure out financials before I start to seriously decide on where I commit.

When are the last set of interviews

When are the last set of interviews

When I went for my interview on the 21st, they said it was number 20 out of 22, so there’s two dates left.

I have my interview scheduled for 12/12, but I’m not sure if that is the last or second to last date of interviews.

Depends on if you have a roommate or not, what kind of apartment you're looking for, and how long you want your commute to be. Some options are:

"Luxury" aka more modern apartments: Latitude (in the med center; fairly expensive, but a 10 minute walk from school; some students got a sign on deal that put them ~$1300-1500/month for a single for the first 15 months); apartments in West University, Meyerland, Kirby, and Upper Kirby (more reasonable, but about a 10 minute drive from school; $1200-1300 for a single, $900-1100 per person for a double)

Traditional apartments: pretty much in any neighborhood you want to look in, but general price range is less than $1000, single or double; probably lower quality in terms of maintenance, though

Feel free to PM me if you have more questions.

does tamu stream their lectures? I'm sure they talked about it on my interview day, but I can't remember.

Any OOS decisions yet?

Can any current students comment on the status of the Round Rock Regional Campus? Thanks!

On the most current web page describing assignments, Round Rock is no longer listed as a location.

Does anyone know when they will be sending another prematch wave? / is this school prematch heavy?

if there is, I'd love to be a part of it

I'm a little confused. At my interview day, current medical students said that students on the Temple or Dallas track complete the first year in BCS and then go to Temple/Dallas while the Houston track completes 18 months in BCS and then goes to Houston. In fact, there weren't any Temple or Dallas students there because they were all already gone. The packet and website, however, state that all students spend the first 18 months in BCS. Does anyone have clarification on this?

They changed it recently, so all campuses going forward do 18 months instead of some doing 12 months.

Does anyone know what the post II acceptance rate is?

for IS or OOS?

IS

So do we think they're done with pre-matches? I interviewed in November and I'm wondering if they're were even considering any of us for a pre-match offer or if we will just have to wait until Match Day.

 

[MD4MePlease]

Any other EnMed applicants still waiting for a decision? Interviewed mid-late Oct.
I know that their last interview session was last week, so I'm just wondering if we'll get an answer before the holidays

I read through the forum from last cycle and it looked like they didn't prematch after the first day except for in January. It might be similar this year. Their class size (not including EnMed) is only about 100 so it's kind of stressful because it's so small.

From their most recent interview it looks like they'll be upping their class size to around 170. So that's some good news!!!!

Thanks for the information and passing it along, we really appreciate it! That definitely helps

Accepted EnMed! Interviewed 12/5

 

[gulli_97]

Any regular acceptances last week?

 

[deleted1014133]

PMed you the link

Hey! Got accepted to EnMed last week. Mind hitting me up with that group?

 

[anchordown12]

will they be sending anymore prematches?

 

[peacock_bc]

PMed you the link

Hi! I was also accepted last week! Could I also get the link please?

 

[deleted1014133]

Does anyone know if A&M accepts updates?

They do! Just email the admissions email and ask about it.

 

[iVent]

Can any current students comment on the status of the Round Rock Regional Campus? Thanks!

Last we were told, Round Rock is still open for electives only. No core rotations there anymore.

 

[anchordown12]

They do! Just email the admissions email and ask about it.

where do they want them sent?

 

[Everythingintexas]

Does anyone have any information about the Houston site? Like which hospital is used or just any info?

 

[gulli_97]

A&M bless us with some prematches tmmrw

 

[deleted1014133]

where do they want them sent?

I would first ask them if they would accept an update document or message, and then when they reply send it then. I also just realized that I sent my question about updates directly to an admission person's email address (her name is Ruth Sanchez) and her email is [email protected]. So just ask her about updates and then she will give you some instructions.

Does anyone have any information about the Houston site? Like which hospital is used or just any info?

At least for EnMed, the Houston location works with Methodist and the didactic years all take place in the TMC mostly at TAMU's campus in/with Methodist.

 

[KAFlover]

Does anyone have any information about the Houston site? Like which hospital is used or just any info?

Adding onto @Matp1200, for the non-EnMed people all of preclinical will take place in college station. Those selected to go to the Houston campus will be at the Houston Willowbrook hospital system not at TMC.

 

[gulli_97]

Can anyone speak on the CSTAT campus?

 

[throwaway69287]

Can anyone speak on the CSTAT campus?

Can't go in to detail due to anonymity, but don't do it.

 

[glitterysuccs]

Can't go in to detail due to anonymity, but don't do it.

Can we PM you for questions?

 

[throwaway69287]

Can we PM you for questions?

About campuses in general? Or CSTAT in specific and why I said that? If its the latter, sorry no.
