traffic rules

Hello all, As you may see from my post history, I was accepted and paid a deposit to KHSC-COM sometime March. After the May 15 deadline, I received a call that I was removed from the wait-list and accepted at another school that is more established. They gave me until Monday 23rd to put down a...

Everyone is probably aware that this is an “unprecedented time” for medical school applications. With applicant numbers at an all-time high, admissions staff working remotely, and interview dates stretching into the spring and possibly later, this application season has been like nothing we’ve...

with medical school traffic rules, is there a point where med schools can see where their WL and accepted applicants end up matriculating? adcoms, do you actually look or care at that point? when you click plan to enroll, and say you get off a WL, do they see that you are holding more than one...

I’ve been accepted at a DO program since November but have interviewed at three allopathic programs as well. I’m currently waitlisted at all three schools, with two of them informing me that they expect to have a lot of waitlist movement around or after April 30th due to the AMCAS traffic...

Hey everybody! I had some questions about the MAR for the 2018-2019 cycle. When you accept an offer from a school, you are essentially holding your spot at the school, correct? This isn't binding in any way? When you accept this offer, what can other schools see? Can they see that you just...

On May 1, and all this week, I was expecting a torrential downpour of "I GOT ACCEPTED OFF THE WAITLIST!!!!" type posts. I thought the bulk of waitlist movement happens right after the April 30 "traffic day." Alas, I'm not seeing a whole lot of movement in the school-specific threads, here in...

As we come on to the "2nd half" of the acceptance-game, I just read something that really surprised me that I hadn't heard before. In post #7 in this thread from 2016 says that one is considered accepted once the acceptance offer has been made. This implies that one is in violation of the rule...

Hey all, I’m just wanting to clarify if traffic day for DO schools is May 15? Thanks in advance!

Hi All- I'm in a fortunate position to be selecting between a few acceptances, and I am definitely not complaining. However, my acceptances are all to schools that seemed similar up front (with similar "gut feelings"). So I did what I do best when making tough choices-- analyzed the crap out of...

Question is pretty self-explanatory. I'm holding on to multiple acceptances since finances play a huge role in my decision-making, since I come from a very low-income family. I know schools are not REQUIRED to provide financial aid letters before April 30th (the day you're supposed to choose...
