WesternU MSMS 2022-2023

Is that the alternative list? How does that work exactly would anyone know more info regarding that?

My understanding is that for this program, there are only 3 decisions: “Accept”, “Non-Accept” and “Alternate”. Alternate is essentially the waitlist yes, but the admissions counselors assured us during the interview that there is movement on the alternate list every year! So don’t despair if you get alternate. People can get pulled off the alternate list as late as 1 week into the program!

When/how did you find out?

I got an email today. I guess if you haven't gotten an email yet that must be a pretty good sign.

I would check your spam box regularly. All WesternU emails went directly to my junk folder last year. I almost missed my interview date because of it lol

 

[PassionateDoc]

Does anyone know how much movement there was from alternate list year before?

I think only Julie is out of office

I’m truly curious about how many decisions they’ve sent out, and if there’s any rhyme or reason to it. Starting to think we won’t hear anything today. The program starts in 35 days.

Do you know when the first day of school would be? According to the catalog it starts on the beginning of June, usually Mo-Fr but last year it started on Thursday, June 3rd ‍ I’m trying to move cross country and not knowing if I got accepted is not helping

Last year we had a Zoom orientation on June 3rd. But ISAC started in person on June 7th.

You have to email whichever admissions counselor is attached to your last name

 

[futureDOctor_]

They switched my counselors. I had Maya Smith until today (?)

Just as I was planning on emailing her, it says it’s Marisela Avila now. I wonder if that’s the reason I haven’t heard yet

 

[herromaster]

My counselor said no decision has been made so far 😮 😟 😢 😬

I’m wondering if they’re going through applicants by order they were interviewed. But either way they’re finally making progress so that’s good! I’m sure we’ll all get a decision at some point this week.

Daniell Mendoza sent this email update to someone I know today:

“The admissions committee is taking a little longer to send out decisions. I am hoping to have all decisions out by the end of the week.”

 

[futurodoctor]

Sorry about that everyone, hopefully you can learn about decisions soon.
I would recommend booking doctors appt for physical as they are requiring it by June 1st and they want you to visit your doctors office twice for titers and stuff. lol
