I'm going to drive down there and drop of everything. I live just about 30-45min. away depending on traffic. I want to try to drop it all off around the 10th, but we'll see how things go.

EDIT: Question: For the Scholar's Days (particularly the February one that includes MedStart), are there only a certain amount of people allowed? I mean, if I book my date late do I run the risk of not getting a spot or should I be fine?

how do you see if your scholars day rsvp is pending?
I recieved something in the mail after i was accepted to wsu inviting me to apply. When I submitted my essay i think it just automatically entered me for the date I signed up for.
Have you been accepted and all at wayne state? That is the only reason that I can think of as to why your rsvp is pending.
I'm thinking most of us our over-qualified for regular undergrad. If I don't make it into Medstart I think I will try to go to honors college at least.

Hey guys, do they look at the "Detroit is a city filled with challenges. Tell us what role you see for yourself in addressing a challenge facing our great city." essay if you are invited to the top 50 interviews for MedStart?

I am not sure. I do not think they look at that to determine anything for medstart. I think they only look at that essay to place you for scholars day.

How did you do the recommendation letters? Do they just write it on a paper and seal it or is their a specific form...because there isn't anything on their website about it.

I was just planning on attaching mine to my application. I don't think there is any special requirements for them. I just have mine written out.

When do they inform us of if we have made the top 50? I'm probably going to end up submitting everything to them on the 12th or so.

My email crashed and I don't have access to emails from last year, but I looked back on CC and I posted on Feb 1 that I had recieved an email letting me know that I was in the top 50 and had been invited to interview. So you really only have to wait a few weeks.

Good luck everyone!

I was told that we would know before scholars day.

Kutless, are you at Medstart? How are you liking it?
