PrePA2009 Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 (edited) Hi, current Midwestern student here, best of luck to everyone, you got this!! Midwestern is an excellent school (sometimes it's hard to tell the reality of a program before being there). The program is super organized, supportive, and has every resource you could need. A couple things that make Midwestern unique that they don't highlight enough: it is only health professions. There are no undergrads, no other departments on campus. All resources and support staff are geared specifically toward biomedical sciences. All rotations (except one) are within a 50-mile radius (no travel). All classes are taught by a professor with a PhD in that exact subject, often down to the subtopic-- anatomy, biochem, pharm, diabetes, implicit bias, embryology etc. Attendance at lecture is not required, no dress code. For the application review, if it's the same as last year I believe the faculty meet once a month, and review all apps that are still pending a decision. If they still require CASPER, do it ASAP, even before you get an interview if this school is a top choice. They won't review your app until the score is received, and it would bump you to the next month's review even if you interviewed earlier. If people you interviewed with heard back and you haven't, don't give up hope. I think they re-review everyone that interviewed and you could still get accepted after the next one. If you're waitlisted-- this is a big program, and they accept a lot of people off the waitlist. Best of luck to everyone. This is a great program, and I'm personally very glad to have ended up here.

loonlake Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 For the casper questions - yeah, required if interview is offered. I already took the casper for another program so once my score came through I forwarded it to Midwestern as well. If it’s any consolation, I found the casper to be relatively simple!! It’s fickle, and a bit odd, but nothing too intensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So its not necessarily required to GET an interview invite then? my status has been "awaiting decision" since i applied back in early June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrePAkatie12 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 I had an interview July 21st but I haven’t heard anything back yet about decisions. Starting to get discouraged! Anyone else from July interview not hear back yet? Does this mean I probably got rejected… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prePA1029 Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 I interviewed 5 weeks ago. From what I remember, they said we would hear back 4-5 weeks after the interview. Should I assume I was rejected? Is it annoying if I email them to check on my status? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pagad949 Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 Anyone here back on interview invites in the past few weeks? I was complete around mid August and I have been in the "Awaiting Decision" on my portal for about over a month now, but it has been radio silent since. All my materials are in too. Ahh hope to hear some good news soon!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roe02 Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 I just logged on to my portal to see if there is anything new, there are usually the Big check marks on there. Now it just says awaiting decision, without the check marks. Does that mean anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roe02 Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 lol, it probably started glitching because of how many times I checked that portal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
