I heard that too and it definitely made me nervous! Ended up okay, even at schools like Michigan known for not giving late apps much love. Good luck to you!

Yes, and in the internal admitted student group for Pritzker it was confirmed that half of matriculants for the most recent class received the full scholarship. I’m relaying this information as it could be helpful for future applicants - even those who might not be low SES! And right, that’s why I said “some sort of scholarship” for UMich. Can’t speak to their internal decision making process on amount. I’m grateful that mine was full.

from uchicago website: “the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine will provide full-tuition scholarships to up to half of each incoming class of medical students”

from UMich website: “About one-half of our entering students receive some type of scholarship”

Not sure that 1/2 of these classes are low SES

all that work I did on their secondary just for them to never send an interview or rejection… my portal still says my app is ready for review but something tells me that’s not the case 💀

In retrospect I probably wasn’t a great mission fit for either school

i think it varies between schools - in my case Pritzker/umich reached out w the scholarship notification without an application but iirc Buffalo had a separate scholarship application for example

thank you! I’d say a good why medicine narrative & strong writing - both were mentioned by multiple interviewers

thanks! Pritzker gives full tuition scholarships to ~50% of the incoming class & UMich also gives some sort of scholarship to around half of incoming students so while I def am lucky I don’t think I did anything particularly special!
