Is anyone else worried about missing a deadline, lol?!? I submitted the deposit and agreed to all the technical standards lol. I even did my fingerprinting. About to have my transcript sent over as well. Anyone else? Lol

Is the fingerprint thing required for all accepted or only PA residents? I am so confused.

[Alien Ai]

[ltina]

any AL movement this week?

 

[adg30]

Officially withdrew from the waitlist this morning after getting an acceptance to another school this past Friday, good luck to everyone else waiting and don't give up hope. It's not over till it's over

 

[Premed2Med1]

For anyone who is on the waitlist and has an A for another school, at what point are yall putting plans in motion for that other school in terms of housing etc etc.

Obvi at a certain point we have to find roommates and a place to stay at the place we have an A at

I was thinking starting in June I'll really go all in on housing etc for the place I'm accepted to rn even if that puts me in a bad position for a possible later acceptance from Geisinger

I’m in the same boat. I think I’ll give it another week and then go all in for the school I got accepted to which means basically giving up my WL position for Geisinger.

i'm accepted at a school that starts late-June, so unfortunately for me, I had to put down a deposit for a place already. If I get into Geisinger before moving in 2.5. weeks, I've accepted that I will end up losing my deposit for the apartment.

Does anyone know whether there is still waitlist movement happening?

 

[MorningDoc11]

Does anyone know whether there is still waitlist movement happening?

Because I committed to another school, they removed me from their waitlist, like no longer being considered. I would’ve seriously considered going here but according to msar only 30 gotten taken off the waitlist.

Thank you for your response! I’m sorry to hear that they did that.

How did they know that you committed to another school in the first place if you dont mind me asking?

 

[MorningDoc11]

Because I committed on AMCAS.

 

[MrJPMorgan]

Because I committed on AMCAS.

if someone committed on ACOMAS or TMDAS would an AAMC school be able to see?

 

[JustKeepSwimming2020]

if someone committed on ACOMAS or TMDAS would an AAMC school be able to see?

I’m not sure about TMDAS but I think that AMCAS and ACOMAS do not communicate

 

[tryingtogetin123]

if someone committed on AAMC, would the rest of the MD schools be able to see?

 

[MorningDoc11]

if someone committed on AAMC, would the rest of the MD schools be able to see?

Yes, they can see as per my email today. I think some schools will act on it and remove you from their waitlist. Some probably won’t. That’s the downside of early CTE dates.

 

[JustKeepSwimming2020]

So I guess based on this information, Geisinger is reducing the number of people on their waitlist? But it would only apply to those who have already committed to enroll at another school and have not withdrawn from geisingers waitlist?

 

[aspiringdoc111]

has everyone who has received an interview taken a full year of organic chemistry? wasn't sure if they allow a sub for orgo 2 with biochem

Hi did you ever get an interview without orgo 2?

 

[MorningDoc11]

Hi did you ever get an interview without orgo 2?

I got an interview without Orgo 2.

 

[MrJPMorgan]

I don't expect any waitlist movement.

what makes you say that? Class full?

 

[dayzinn]

There's also people in the facebook group that are attending other schools LMAO

 

[MrJPMorgan]

There's also people in the facebook group that are attending other schools LMAO

Like they already enrolled somewhere else or planning on going somewhere else?

 

[dayzinn]

Meaning intending to go elsewhere haha

 

[MaybeDocMaybeNot]

When's the CTE deadline again? 21 days before classes start?

 

[dayzinn]

july 10

 

[potatotad]

so I guess they’re really not accepting anyone anymore…? 😢

 

[potatotad]

I'm so sad I really liked this school

Yeah me too🥲 It was an honor being a part of the application cycle with all of you amazing people. I hope the best for all us!

 

[MrJPMorgan]

How is that confirmed?

 

[potatotad]

How is that confirmed?

The CTE deadline was on Monday so a spot would only open up if someone defers. But I expect this would be very rare and unlikely

 

[MaybeDocMaybeNot]

I am actually crying tears of joy (and stress rn) because I just got a call from admissions saying I was admitted off of the waitlist. I really had accepted that it was over but it actually happened. Thank you guys for being such a great support system throughout this journey!

Also does anyone have recommendations for housing in scranton? I am so lost right now I don't even know where to start
