A Whole Bunch Of Quiet

I have not heard from any other schools regarding interviews yet. I am certainly glad to have the ones I have but it would be nice to have a few more to increase my odds.

A couple of quotes that I found:

“Keep your dreams alive. Understand that to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.”

"You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction."

Another Post Secondary Update....

I received a letter in the mail from A.T. Still University Kirksville, MO campus.....

I was advised that I am on a pre-interview hold and they will let me know if that status changes. Basically a rejection pre-interview.

I am still crossing my fingers for an acceptance somewhere!

Interview Invites!

I got an interview invitation from two schools:

Touro University in Henderson, NV on February 3

Lake Erie College of Medicine in Erie, PA on March 12


I was beginning to think I wasn't going to receive any interviews. At least I know I have a chance at getting in somewhere. I guess the holidays slowed everything down. Now, I am hoping things really speed up and move forward.

Secondary Update

I decided not to submit a secondary application to Pacific Northwest University because they prefer students form the pacific northwest area and they only have a class size of 75. In addition, their secondary application fee is $175.00 compared to $50 for most other secondaries. Why waste my money when I really don't have a chance?

I also did not submit a secondary to Western University in Pamona, California. I decided that I was not willing to live in the Pamona area so why return that secondary and waste more money?

I have not yet submitted secondary applications to Philadelphia College of Medicine's Philadelphia & Georgia campuses.

I did not return a secondary to Pikeville College of Medicine in Pikeville, KY either. I may do that in the next few weeks depending on what colleges I may or may not hear from.

I received word back from Rocky Vista in Colorado; they said I was waitlisted pre-interview so I have little hope for that school. I was also waitlisted pre-interview for Midwestern University in Glendale, AZ. I have no hope for that school either.

Schools I have yet to hear back from after submitting my secondaries are:

LMU Tennessee, Nova Southeastern University Florida, Lake Erie Florida Campus, West Virginia College of Medicine, A.T. Still University Missouri and Arizona campuses.
