I just withdrew my acceptance from [this] school, c/o 2018

[free99]

Congrats to those who are freshly admitted! Now that the dust has settled from the December 2nd explosion, let's turn our attention to those on waitlists who are still anxiously awaiting their first acceptance by documenting the schools from which we've withdrawn our acceptances. I hope this thread gives some hope to people who are in limbo and feel defeated after yesterday's flurry of activity!

I'll be withdrawing today from:
-LECOM and
-NYU

hope some sdn'ers get those slots!

Cancelled my interview in Colorado in January, I know it's not an acceptance withdrawal, but might be helpful to someone

This is an important thread. A lot of us (myself included) have benefited from these forums and other people's efforts on here, immensely. All of us need to give back: Withdraw when you know you are not going to be going to a certain school.

Congrats to all.

Withdrawing my acceptance to Oklahoma today. Good luck to whoever is on the wait list!!

Or, once every minute or two.

Temple and maryland here. Hope you cool cats get the spots.

 

[Coffeeisamust]

I will be giving up my interview at western. I hope someone can turn that interview into an acceptance!

 

[Richard_H]

Just withdrew my interview from Case Western for Friday. Not sure if anyone is going to get anything from that. Also withdrawing my acceptance from NOVA and NYU in the next few hours. Hold your heads up high and good luck everyone!!!!!!!

 

[free99]

I would have made a poll here, but the new forum only allows 10 entries... unless I missed something.

 

[Richard_H]

You could edit your original post with tally data on how many withdraws from which schools. Would take some effort to keep it up to date though...

 

[BlueDevil2012]

Withdrawing from Meharry today.
Possibly UK as well.

 

[hypemachine]

Will be withdrawing from NYU as well.

OP, great thread. Everyone else, please keep this updated so those on waitlists can gain some hope!

I considered that, but I don't have the will power to keep it up. If the thread turns out to be something valuable, searching within the thread for keywords might be the way to go.

btw, nice jump to "dental student" status! still hard to believe it's real...

 

[Aetherius]

Wow, you guys made your decisions quite fast!
I've yet to hear from more schools, so I can't withdraw just yet. Hopefully I see more withdrawals from my top school here, so I can get off their waitlist, although I doubt that would be the case :/

 

[HaverfoodsDDS]

Withdrawing from UPenn.....can't handle that tuition with such good cheaper options in hand.

 

[Glimmer1991]

Withdrawing my interview from UoP in January. I think UoP accepts a lot of people who they interview, so hopefully, this will help someone out!

Also, I think people that got scholarships to Case received phone calls yesterday. Well, I didn't get a phone call, so I will likely be withdrawing my acceptance later in the week. It stinks, though! I loved the school, but I have much cheaper options. Oh well... It was a great experience regardless, and the school was extremely kind to me.

If the cost difference isn't too significant, UMinn for sure!

 

[Funz]

Are you guys emailing the schools you are turning down? How are you notifying them?

 

[huskiesrule]

Why is everyone turning down NYU? I got into western and udm but am waitlisted for nyu? I thought it was a great school. I'm considering withdrawing my app since it western is my pick being from Oregon.

I guess people are withdrawing because of the cost. It's a great school nonetheless

 

[kingenamel]

Turning down NYU-cost

 

[dentistaazzurro]

I'm probably withdrawing from Roseman, Case and Loma Linda. I also just turned down an interview in Tennessee.
