Started this thread so people who are certain about where they are going to get to know each other.

Facebook page for those who are certain they will be coming to Des Moines next fall.
Here is a link to the DMU bookstore so you can start outfitting yourself and your friends and family with DMU apparel.

I remember when I was there I bought a pair of DMU shorts for 5 bucks. Though I later found out it was for woman's. No wonder I had to get XL
I'm surprised we already have 4 people in the fb group. That's already ~2% of the c/o 2016!
Looking forward to meeting you all in a few months. I'll be apartment hunting in April. Wish it would come faster.
I'm sure you found this out as SOON as you put the shorts on.
Otherwise, I was just going to create another fb profile and join...
Hey, do you know if all my facebook friends can tell when you join a group? I ask because I still have about 8 months left at my currently stable well-paying job and I don't intend on giving my notice until a month before school starts. I wouldn't want all my facebook friends from work to suddenly see that I'm in the DMU Class of 2016 group. I figured that may raise some questions at work
Otherwise, I was just going to create another fb profile and join...
Yeah, I know. I should just join the group. Who cares. What are the chances people actually look at my profile all that closely anyway...
Paid my seat deposit today... very excited... who would have thought choosing a medical school would be tough? Talk about waiting till the last minute for me (had till the 7th to decide)
Has anyone started to look at housing? Anyone looking close to campus?
Hey everyone -
So post DMU interview I am going crazy waiting to see if I got accepted so just wanted any opinion on my scores and chances.. MCAT 25, GPA 3.92 Sci GPA 3.95....Currently a chemistry lab instructor at a university and job shadowed a DO that was DMU alum. Felt the interview went pretty well but you guys know the stress of not really knowing. Any honest opinions or confidence boosters would be great! If DMU accepts I am 100% in and never looking back!
Your GPA compensates for your MCAT score. Your shadowing position might have given you an additional edge since he was a DMU alum... but maybe not. Statistically, assuming your other ECs are good, you would have a great chance I think.
Hopefully things work out for you!
Who wants to be my roommate?? I'm a genius, I'll help you with your hw cause it'll only take me 2 seconds. I'm the best chef you'll ever meet. Cleanliness? No one is cleaner. I'm strikingly handsome, so looking at me all the time will be a treat. Workout partner? I'm your guy! I'm looking for the cheapest option available within walking distance. Why walking distance, well I'm a greenhead and treat our Earth like a princess! Don't want to walk with me? That's fine, I'll carry you to class!Has anyone started to look at housing? Anyone looking close to campus?
So I'm officially going to be attending DMU in the class of 2016! Whohooo! I'm so glad the application process is FINALLY over. I've totally been lurking on SDN and not posting things, but I thought I'd say hello and introduce myself. I'm female, 23 years old, from Northern California. I'm into hiking, surfing, camping, and rock climbing. (Things I will no longer be able to partake in while in med school ) I'm also a total nerd who enjoys video games and action movies. I have a serious fascination with insects (particularly colonial insects) and octopi. I majored in Biology and minored in Creative Writing.
Haha! Now you know something about me!
Next, of course, I need to find housing and maybe a roommate....
So how has this page existed since October and I just now found it? what an SDN fail.
Anybody else get their portal info toaday!!!
I have contact the AOA in regards to this matter to see if any Sanctions or fines should be imposed on Des Moines University. I am in the process of starting an investigation with Des Moines University.
