Does anyone know how long someone in my position has to decide about this school vs another school, in regards to “plan to enroll” options? Since I got the A today, and I already have selected “plan to enroll” to another school, how long do I have to decide to change my “plan to enroll” to nymc? the wording is confusing since the deadlines don’t apply to my situation. Thank you in advance!

Yes if the email doesn't clarify, I believe AAMC sent an email stating that applicants have 5 business days. However, NYMC might have a different protocol.

I was also recently accepted and had selected PTE at another school. I e-mailed admissions and they told me I had 2 weeks to decide (regardless of the April 30th deadline). 2 weeks is what my e-mail said I'm not sure if yours says something different. The wording was confusing so I would definitely e-mail the school back so that you have in writing them confirming the timeline. Hope this helps!

I received an email from AAMC:

Admission Officer Protocol 6: After April 30, permit all applicants a minimum of five business days to respond to an acceptance offer. This may be reduced to a minimum of two business days within 30 days of the start of orientation.

Do they send over an FA package along with the acceptance? Just wondering if they give you this information to make an informed decision when comparing costs between your options.

No (edit: i was accepted last week) and i think FA will be sent later in may- june (no date was given). plan to make a decision without FA

Financial aid is usually June @DJ_MD

 

[neurolover945]

Got accepted this morning! I'm so grateful to have this monkey off my back. Trad applicant, ORM ethnic/URM sexual orientation, 3.6 GPA/518 MCAT.

 

[neurolover945]

Also, do we have an admitted students facebook group?

 

[thaextension]

Hey! Anyone here a current student? I had some questions about the school and I interviewed online and didn’t really get to see it

+1

 

[21Rush12]

@khatuba @thaextension I may be able to help

 

[heritage243]

Got accepted today! Interviewed 3/17. After two other post-II R's, this is my first acceptance and a nice change of pace.

Congrats! Sunday scaries.....

 

[thaextension]

@21Rush12 Thank you so much! I was accepted on 4/1 and I have so many questions

1. How is exam week organized (i.e. are you given time off to prep for exams, are there usually several exams on the same day)?
2. How accessible are professors if additional help is needed?
3. How much clinical experience is offered prior to 3rd year?
4. What kind of community service opportunities are available? I'd like to get out into the community relatively early in my education.
5. Oh and how is the gym lol?

 

[MDextreme]

Withdrew my acceptance here last week. Wishing those on the waitlist much luck! This is a great school and its in an awesome location. Good luck to you all!

 

[hopefulmed57]

Yes there is a group! It's called NYMC Class of 2024 Accepted Students

 

[brainreducio]

Bruh NYMC making my heart drop with the COVID19 email. Why are they sending me it, I’m waitlisted

 

[Cooldoc613]

Maybe they sent that to everyone they’re about take off the WL....

Lol that's assuming that not everyone on the WL got that email.

 

[TripleHBK]

You’re right that just means they bout to take all of us

 

[dr.grey12]

us: *patiently waiting for a response*
NYMC sending us that email: I'm about to end this whole mans career

 

[premed1245]

When people e-mailed the terms and conditions form after acceptance did you receive a response?

 

[K123456789]

Just got off the waitlist!!! Interviewed in Jan, WL in Feb

 

[K123456789]

Congrats!! Were you notified via email or phone call?

email!

 

[21Rush12]

So stoked for the waitlist crew!

 

[meddical]

Any current students have any insight into housing options? Insider knowledge about each type?

Join the FB group if you haven't already! Upperclassmen give a lot of info on housing in there, and also link to a useful orientation document put together by upper class years for incoming M1s with an entire Housing section

I never received a response after sending it in >1 month ago

 

[TripleHBK]

Any movement today?

 

[latinainmedicine]

Did they start offering that for this year already? I thought it was too soon?

for anyone interested, they have started offering the AMSNY opportunities

Is anyone thinking of living off campus or is everyone going to live on campus?

I’m going to live off-campus. I’ve had roommates for too long and I just can’t have that anymore ahhaha

 

[maksidris]

Anyone know yet or heard from any source, about whether or not fall semester will start remotely or in person?

 

[iluvmedicine528]

Just got off the waitlist - how long do we have until we decide on a response? It says 2 weeks on the email but it seems a generic email not tailored to waitlisters. Thanks

If you look in the previous thread that email isn't generic and is tailored for waitlisters.

Congratulations! When did you interview? Also, did you submit an update letter or letter of intent?

According to AAMC, five business days. However, I'm sure each school has its own policy.

Admission Officer Protocol 6: After April 30, permit all applicants a minimum of five business days to respond to an acceptance offer. This may be reduced to a minimum of two business days within 30 days of the start of orientation.

I'll be off campus for sure because I have a pet!

What / who is your pet? More importantly, can we come visit when we need pet therapy? haha

 

[premed4549]

Does anyone know if there’s a way to meet people who want to live off campus - bc I wasn’t to live with roommates to make it cheaper but I don’t know if I can go back to dorm life

I think one way is to maybe study together?

Lol I don’t think that will be possible as I was hoping before the start of the school year
