Just curious, are you going to take the seat?Hey Guys,
I was called on Tuesday and offered a seat in this year's class off of the deferred acceptance list. I think that list should be moving quickly because the admissions officer said that I only have until this Friday to decide whether I would be taking the seat or not. I interviewed at the end of January. Received deferred acceptance in March. I did not send any update letters after receiving deferred acceptance in March, nor did I call to express continued interest in the program. Just thought that this info would be helpful to some of you.
Hey All-
Was offered a seat in this year's class today (was on Deferred Admission list) but declined due to my decision to attend another school. I only had until 3pm today to decide...hopefully the quick turn around means lots of movement to those waiting!
Best of luck, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!
thanks for sharing this info.
mind sharing your stats? I'm trying to see if there's a method to this madness, are they pulling ppl from deffered admission based on #s, interview date, ?? I've already paid my deposit to this school but still havent received a call.
Did you receive a deferred admission as well? If so,.when did you interview? I received a deferred admission and interviewed on the 17th of March. I'm hoping I can receive an invite to join this year's class soon =/
For people with deferred acceptance, are we basically out of luck at this point? I mean, it's the end of May and school starts in 2 months and most people have made their decision. How realistic is it that the huge list of deferred acceptance people will hear back?

I didn't pay a deposit prior to getting the call or send any updates/additional letters. I only called once to ask for a clarification on the deferred admission letter. I interviewed on March 1. I have a 3.9 GPA with degrees in Speech Pathology/Spanish. I went back to school to complete all the pre-reqs and have a 3.78 science GPA. My MCAT was a 26R. I had a lot of extracurriculars including several years leading medical brigades in Honduras.
I decided not to go to Western because I was accepted to my state school in Missouri (Mizzou, an MD program) and it will end up costing me at least $20,000 less per year. Even though I loved the school, I can't justify those extra loans!!!!

Hey guys, I was just offered a spot for the class of 2016. I got a deferred acceptance and interviewed on feb 18. So definetly keep your hopes up! I think the movement just started and will be going on for a while. Good luck everyone!
Hey thanks for the update and congrats on the acceptance! So it looks like they're offering acceptances chronologically to those who were offered a deferred acceptance earlier in the cycle. I interviewed on their last interview day so I'm crossing my fingers!
Just sent an e-mail to withdraw my acceptance. I'm sad I don't get to meet all of you, but I hope someone waiting will be able to get my spot!
Hey everyone, I've decided to stay close to my family and go to school in AZ... I hope one of you deserving students gets my spot-- it's a great school! This was my second year applying, so keep your heads up.
A bit late, but I recently sent in my withdrawal email. As far as DO programs go, there is none better than this school. I feel so lucky to have been given a chance here. I know those of you who will be offered a seat will deserve it and will make the most of it. To those of you who need to reapply- never give up on your dreams. I am a living testament that no matter where you come from, what your mistakes are, and how old you are, that you can reach your goals. Best of luck to everyone here, and G-d bless.
I have regretfully withdrawn from this school today. Nice school, nice people

Anyone know if there is free wifi available everywhere on campus? Does it work well?
Also, for anatomy lab, are we going to need separate shoes as well? Will the shoes end up smelling like the rest of the lab? If so, what shoes are recommended? Just some cheap old shoes that we won't wear again?
hi guys,
i'm a previous applicant to medical school but am thinking about applying to western. would anyone be able to speak to my chances?
mcat: 30p
gpa: ~3.5 from cornell university
extracurriculars: TONS of research, shadowing MDs
other: strong committee recommendation from cornell university, strong recommendation from an MD i've consistently shadowed throughout the years
