Summary of Experience:
I was accepted into VCOM through their post bac program. They have an auto acceptance deal that if you get at least a 24 on your MCAT and then maintain at least a 3.5 throughout the post bac program, and receive a positive recommendation from the post bac committee you will be accepted to VCOM for the following year. I achieved all of the required score/grades/recommendation and was accepted for the class of 2015. VCOM is a great environment and they really care about their students. I felt right at home and cannot wait to start August 1st!
