waitlist movement

Hello all! I applied this previous cycle and wanted to post on here retroactively regarding my chances of getting off waitlist, or advice on if the schools I picked were good choices. I'm a white, female, VA resident. VCU was my undergraduate with a major in chemistry and a minor in Spanish...

Hey all! I know every year is different for applications. I made it to the waitlist on my top choice school. I do not want to give specifics, but has anyone ever been chosen from a waitlist before? I need words of encouragement. :). I know this is a vague question. Is there any advice on...

Hi! So I just recently got an offer from Stony Brook Dental and NYU dental, and I am currently on the Rutgers waitlist and they are probably my top school. I wanted to know if it would be a good idea to add in the letter of interest that I’m planning on writing to them that I got offers from...

Hi all! I am currently on 3 different waitlists for vet schools and I was wondering who else is on waitlists? I am trying to figure out what number a vet school might typically get to on a waitlist (I know it can be highly variable!) For current vet students, were any of you pulled off of a...

Hi everyone! December 15th passed and I got put on the waitlist at two schools. I need advice on when to send a letter of intent. I am waiting on another school's decision (which would be my first choice and I already interviewed there), however I don't want to jeopardize a potential seat at...

To preface, I have recently been pulled off the waitlist at KCU in Joplin (3 hours ago) and have until 10am tomorrow to decide (less than 24 hours). I have spoken to A LOT of people, but more information/insight can only help. As of now, I am not interested in particularly competitive...

Hey everyone! So I'm currently sitting on 6 MD waitlists and 1 DO acceptance. I have an institutional action on my application for plagiarism/misattribution from two years ago which I thoroughly discussed on my app and it was only brought up in two of my interviews. I was just wondering whether...

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...

Let's get this party started. Anybody been moved into folder review yet?

Hi everyone! I was waitlisted at Hofstra after an interview & my stats are good. I was wondering if anyone knows of a student who got off the waitlist in the past and what are my chances getting off the waitlist? I know it's still early.

Hey everyone, This is a waitlist thread for LMU DCOM applicants in the 2018-2019 cycle! I don't think we'll start hearing anything until sometime in May but feel free to post here. Good luck to everyone and I hope we all hear good news this cycle!

I saw that a waitlist thread hasn't been made for this cycle, so I took the liberty of making one:happy:

Hello everyone, so I am currently on the waitlist at NYU and I was wondering how the waitlist review process works. So, to sum up what has happened so far is that I have been on the waitlist since February and I have heard nothing back while others have been getting off the waitlist - even...

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...

Hi everyone, I found some very old posts that mentioned a way to see last year’s mobility and admissions from OHSU’s alternate list but have been unable to find out how to see this data. My spouse just received word that she is on the alternate list for 2018 and I’m just trying to gauge the...

As the current cycle draws to a close, out of curiosity, how many schools are you currently active on the waitlist for? Also, if you don’t mind sharing, which schools are they? As for myself, I’m waiting on Nova, UNE, and Indiana.

Hello everyone, I’ve been accepted into 1 school & waitlisted in the other. Do I need to withdraw from the waitlisted school by April 30th? On another note, would it be wise to add waitlisted school on fafsa or wait until there’s acceptance in hand?

I was put on the waitlist on December 11th, 2017. I have a 3.7 GPA and over 500 outpatient/ pediatric/ and SNF observation hours. Does anyone know how well the waitlist for UMB moves? They don't give out numbers/rankings.

Hey guys. Figured I'd start this thread for anyone else waitlisted like me. I don't think we'll start hearing anything until May, but I know someone who got pulled off randomly in December, so I suppose it isn't too crazy to hope for a miracle this early, haha.

Wanting to start a thread on Pacific University's (Oregon) waitlist status. Post where you are on the waitlist, if you are declining an acceptance, etc. I am currently in Tier 2.

So long story short, I paid my second deposit at one dental school and am planning on going there unless I get moved up from the waitlist and get accepted to another school. Will the school where I deposited my fees deny my admission if they find out I am on the waitlist at the other school?

Does anybody have a rough estimate of approximately how many people get placed on the waitlist every year at Maryland and if there is much movement for in state or out of state waitlisted applicants? Wanted to know for myself and others. Thanks!
