Congrats Jenn42!!! I sent you PM with a link to the facebook page

Haha thanks guys....I just wish I would know now, and not a week before school starts, if I will be getting a spot or not...makes it a little hard to plan-especially since I am currently working full time. But I will keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best! Hopefully they will get those dang letters out soon so people can start making decisions!

APriest, thanks for your PM. First, unfortunately when calling they don't tell you your spot on the alternate list. I literally bugged them every other week asking questions if there was anything else I could do to either get ready if I was chosen or to reapply and make myself a better candidate. I doubt it helped any that I was showing interest in the program or keeping my name fresh in their mind but I'm sure it didn't hurt either. I believe I was one of the first alternates chosen though and then there were several more selected after me, including the ones days before class started. I wouldn't get too hung up on GPA as a determinant of your spot. I had a 3.27 cum (higher prereqs and science averages) volunteer experience, and good LOR. From what the program director told me, there's sometimes a few people don't send back their letters of intent and then they'll pick from the alternate list. Last semester, everyone send back the letters, but they also told me it's very normal for people to decline and drop out once people start working through financial aid 1-2 months before classes start. Not sure if this is any help but don't despair.

I'm really excited! I just found out that I was accepted! Can't wait to meet you all. I just requested to join the FB group too. :-)

I spoke with Ms. Long today; she stated MUSC's accepting 80 students for Fall and mini-orientation is June 6th.

Has anyone received their letter yet?? I still have not received anything in the mail....

I just got my letter today. I live about 10 mins from MUSC. Good Luck to everyone starting in the fall, hopefully I'll be there next spring!

Just got my acceptance letter. Could you send me the FB link as well? I'm excited to meet you all in the near future!

Thanks!

Congrats to you all! I think everyone should have their letters this week and the acceptance packages next week. Be warned, however, that a friend of mine was told that she was accepted and then received a letter stating otherwise. I've got my fingers crossed for everyone :)
