any movement today?

 

[UA13]

any movement today?

I'm going to assume movement will be Tuesday. I'm guessing they will have a committee meeting Monday and then call about acceptances Tuesday. That's just going off of the way they did acceptances throughout the cycle.

 

[SawyerMoccassin]

Quillen started sending scholarship letters last week apparently. FYI

 

[Lapwing1590]

I’m guessing lots of people are dropping multiple acceptances today, so not sure when they will start sending out more acceptances. I do assume we are already ranked per their point system, but they won’t let you know where you are on it.

What I wouldn't give to know my ranking

Has there been any movement this week?

I don’t think so. I check this thread every afternoon I don’t hear anything and breathe a sigh a relief.

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Is the committee meeting today?

Where did you hear about scholarships being sent out?

 

[SawyerMoccassin]

Where did you hear about scholarships being sent out?

I called the finaid office and the financial aid person (I can't remember her name, though she's the main one) said that they started sending them out a couple weeks ago, so that might mean they're sending them incrementally. Not sure.

 

[med23bulldog]

still no movement?

 

[OBMG]

still no movement?

They began making calls yesterday.

 

[dohopeful13]

They began making calls yesterday.

Well that's depressing

 

[Cardioparty-o]

oh man. I wonder if they'll update the stats page

 

[Cardioparty-o]

They began making calls yesterday.

wait, really? Do you know whether this will be the last round of calls or not?

 

[dohopeful13]

There are people who get in June and maybe even later. But around May 1st is usually the largest amount of movement. But then again, since no one on here got a call, maybe things are moving at more of a trickle. I'm honestly not feeling too promising about my chances barring a miracle, but my stats were below their average anyway.

 

[Edward1234]

So they accept people a month before classes start interesting.

 

[Cardioparty-o]

huh, it seemed like the thread from last year showed more acceptances around this time.

Welcome to the medical school admissions process, where you are just another number on a page (for most schools)

 

[dohopeful13]

Yeah, there were a quite a few people on SDN who got in to QCOM on May 1st. This year it’s May 7th and no one here has

 

[Tintinnabula]

Try to keep hope. QCOM called me May 22 of the year I entered my medical school. Best of luck, y'all - it's not over yet.

bless you. Hopefully, they continue in the same vein. They are being awfully coy this year.

 

[OBMG]

Unfortunately, I'm not sure. One of my buddies got the call yesterday. I have several other friends who are on active hold and didn't hear anything yesterday. So I'm thinking maybe they are slowly making calls.

Gotcha! Hopefully, we will hear something soon.

 

[SawyerMoccassin]

seriously....... smh, gonna waste away before we hear anything about scholarships/finaid. lol

 

[Cardioparty-o]

So, at which point should we inquire about application counseling? For those of you on hold, do you plan on re-applying right now or waiting it out?

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Are on-hold people going to know whether they are no longer under consideration?

I think they will send you a letter in the mail if they reject you from the waitlist.

Has anyone here gotten a letter like this? Just wondering whether to wait it out or....

I am still on the waitlist and have not received anything. I have a DO acceptance I am taking instead.

Did you ever call them to see what was going on?

 

[marine12]

Yeah they said to basically wait and see lol.

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Yeah they said to basically wait and see lol.

oh my goodness! Haha, I think you and I interviewed on the same day. Do you remember when you called them?

 

[dohopeful13]

In waitlist purgatory with you guys as well. I'm moving forward as if I'm not getting in, but still holding out hope they accept me before I sign a new lease in a month or so.

Interviewed way back in October- in it for the long haul! And they explicitly told me on the phone that it wouldn’t show up on the choose your school tool for a day or so— call came first

[wannabedoc101]

Does Quillen give relative position on the waitlist information if called? I know a bunch of other schools do

I don't think they do, but they very well might. No clue

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Has anyone heard anything?

 

[SawyerMoccassin]

Just received my financial aid packet in the mail.

 

[Cardioparty-o]

Any clue when they are going to send out final notices?
