USC BMD Program

<p>This is for anyone applying or already in the 8 year BMD program at USC. The long essays give a maximum of 2 pages, but is that double-spaced and in what font size or do they not really care? Is there word limit to aim for? </p>

<p>I’d just like to clarify a little vagueness. Thanks!</p>

<p>I just pulled up my essays–yes, it’s double spaced, and I’d assume 12 point in Times New Roman. If you’re trying to find ways to finagle little bits of room here and there, they’re going to notice it and that usually doesn’t reflect positively on your application.</p>

<p>mine are 1.5 spaced… they were double spaced and fit on two pages… i just felt more comfortable 1.5 spaced argh… </p>

<p>sorry was looking for bac/md threads… i know this is old</p>

<p>I recieved a letter for an interview for the BMD program today. </p>

<p>Has anyone else gotten one? What days are you thinking about going/are you guys staying overnight with a student?</p>

<p>mine were single spaced. i got a positive letter.</p>

<p>I received an BMD interview! :)</p>

<p>I was planning on staying overnight but I’m not completely sure yet.
Are your parents coming?</p>

<p>I got invited too! (:
I don’t think my parents are going to come… because it doesn’t sound like they’re invited. I live in S. Cali anyway haha so I guess they will be driving and dropping me off (:</p>

<p>Do we have to pay for our own airfare to do the interview?</p>

<p>Does anyone know?</p>

<p>I’m not sure…
I’d really like to know though, lol.</p>

<p>Yes, you have to pay for your own airfare. It’s definitely worth it, though. The interview day alone is great.</p>
