admissions process

Update letters, letters of interest, and letters of intent all have important meaning in the medical school application process but submitting the right letter at the right time can make a big difference in the admissions process.  In this episode, I'm joined by Kate Fukawa-Connelly, an expert pre-health advisor from Princeton University, to share her advice surrounding this topic.

This episode brings you to the Gateway City of St. Louis, Missouri and the Washington University School of Medicine.  Wash U SOM has had a lot of new and exciting things going on at their School, including a curricular renewal and a new scholarship program.  Listen in as Matt Taitt, the Director of Admissions, and I discuss all of these new changes and, most importantly, their admissions process and what they are looking for in their applicants.
