Marked complete on 7/20, nothing here but people who were marked complete after me are getting II’s so I assume they’re going by higher stats first

 

[omogedoctor]

It seems like this is the first day of interviews being sent out, for all my fellow low stat applicants, our time will come I think they’re going by higher stats first

Amen.

 

[drthedude]

Amen.

+100000

At least based off last cycle but who knows for this one

 

[DionnaK]

Just wanted to stop in! II received yesterday as well! Will be interviewing 9/16! MCAT on the lower end so everyone keep your hope!

Guess I can add that I’m in-state, undergrad gpa was not super competitive, and I just graduated from my health science masters program with a 3.95 gpa in May! (No it wasn’t their masters program)

Congrats! Was your mcat above or below 500?

 

[DionnaK]

Congrats! Was your mcat above or below 500?

Thank you! Below, so I don’t think that was the determining factor for this first round of interviews.

 

[drthedude]

Do you mind if I may ask specifically what it was? What was your GPA?

This gives me hope this school is one of my top choices

 

[DionnaK]

Feel free to message me!

 

[DionnaK]

Yes definitely keep your hope! I’m praying it works out for all of us!

 

[helpmeouthere]

Is this school OOS friendly?

 

[Formedschoolapps]

Is this school OOS friendly?

I believe so, on chooseDO it says that 285/412 students who matriculated were out of state.

That was when Ms. Porter was the director of admissions. Now with Robin Mace as the new director of admissions, they have placed greater emphasis on their mission and are matriculating more applicants from the Appalachian region (namely TN and KY).

(I am a former 2021-2022 waitlisted applicant).

Dang hopefully they show FL love

I’m smack in the middle in IL, hopefully they like me

 

[ckcp]

Did your portal update?

Nope, still hasn’t but the email said the link to the zoom would be emailed so I’m just planning on waiting for that

 

[paa64281]

How do they determine who can go to which campus? Is it first come first serve?

 

[winnerwinnerchickendinner]

How do they determine who can go to which campus? Is it first come first serve?

Pretty much. If there are seats available at both locations, they ask you which one you prefer to goto once you get accepted. The Knoxville location generally gets full by Jan-Feb. After that, you would request to join a waitlist for the Knoxville location after being automatically placed in Harrogate.

 

[helpmeouthere]

Which campus takes lower stats?

 

[winnerwinnerchickendinner]

Which campus takes lower stats?

After you get accepted, you get an email saying which location you want. They don’t place you based on stats.

Thanks! It wasn't today, it was also on Wednesday around 1 pm. I've got a 504 MCAT and 3.6 gpa, but science is lower at around 3.4

In state or out of state?

That may be true but our current oms1 class is pretty even maybe slightly more on the amount of out of state vs in state. I wouldn't get to discouraged on not being in state. It would help if you are but it shouldn't hurt your application.

 

[PapaGuava]

I don't think LMU will ever become as selective with In-state favoritism like MSU or Oklahoma State, so if you're an out of state applicant I wouldn't worry too much.

 

[LuvtoBeADoctor]

Well, MCAT 51* (Mid teens), GPA 3.7+, sGPA (3.8+), Ton of research etc ... still waiting here from the end of June. It looks like at least 4 Floridians are here waiting .......

Is there a portal to check the status of my application?

 

[DOctorCAL1]

Is there a portal to check the status of my application?

the portal doesn't show status updates sadly.

 

[drthedude]

“Congrats, your application is under review!” I love seeing it for the 100th time

 

[leia314]

Does anyone else’s portal look different?

I feel that there was a lot more stuff on the page now it’s just the 100% complete on the supplemental.
