Hello everyone! best of luck this cycle.

I was reviewing the requirements and was unsure if the 500 community service hours is required or just highly recommended.. in other words would my app be auto rejected if I don't have 500 hours? I am planning to email them tomorrow morning, but was curious if anyone knows?

 

Thank you! 🙂

Great question, I was wondering about the same thing too. What did they say in the e-mail response?

I have to say, 500 volunteer hours for a requirement is quite a lot, probably the highest I've seen. Not a huge fan of the requirement. I can personally afford to volunteer, but many others in worse financial situations may not be able to to the same if they are already (and likely) working a low paying PCE job. Not sure if I should try to reach 500 hours by the deadline or work on my PCE more for next cycle.

Just received Zoom interview invite June 20th! I’m beyond excited and still in shock :), I wonder how many people get interviews and from those get into the cohort? Good luck everyone!

I requested for the 22nd or 23rd! As a 2nd time applicant this past 21/22 cycle, I was feeling pretty hopeless because I didn't hear from most of the schools I applied to. I can't believe it!! Good luck, everyone!
