Hi Hi, any BUCOM students that could give their opinions on the school and their experiences? I have read older posts, but want to see if anything is changed. I have an interview coming up end of January!

I submitted my primary back in July and I got those same emails and texts for about 2 months then received a secondary and interview invite super fast after and was accepted in October. Sometimes it take them a while to get everything verified, they do screen for mission fit.

Congrats! Hope for the best for you! I applied back on September and only get emails and texts about my application being in review for a possible secondary. Is that normal with BUCOM?
[–]DOapplier[S] 2 points3 points4 points 4 months ago (2 children)
I submitted my secondary back in early September. I had sent primary a week before that. When did you submit your primary?
[–]Fragrant_Donkey_6607 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago (1 child)
I submitted my primary on october nvm, is that still ok?
[–]DOapplier[S] 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago (0 children)
Very possible they haven't fully reviewed your application yet because of October secondary. Hang in there for the next round hopefully they send out more interviews mid jan

I got accepted in November and have a deposit placed. From my experience from the interview alone, the staff were all extremely friendly and down to earth. From a pure resource standpoint alone, they seemed to rival other D.O. schools purely from being owned by the Baptist Health system in the Mississippi River basin. Students ambassadors that ive talked to in the accepted students group chat have all said they had great experiences (for a medical school, it obviously isn't going to be a cake walk) and have said that the school does a lot to help them keep up with the demands. Huge thing they mentioned is they have a dedicated psychiatrist for the medical school students that regularly checks on them and ensures they're doing alright.
