waitlist

Hello everyone! My CTE deadline is quickly approaching and I am WL'd at my top choice institution. My WL school encourages updates (I have sent a update/LOI pre-WL, an update and a LOI post WL already). I was wondering if it would be acceptable to send another update 1) reiterating my...

Hey guys, I got waitlist from OSU and was wondering what I should do? I’ve been preparing myself for pharmacy school throughout my undergrad and now I’m not sure what to do if I don’t get a response back. Did anyone else also go waitlisted?

Was wondering when might be a good time to ask for feedback for prepare for a new cycle, while being on the waitlist. It seems like asking for it while on the waitlist might give off the impression that I'm "giving up" on the current cycle. Is there any time at which it is fair to ask for...

Thought I'd create a quick thread for LECOM alternate/waitlists since it seems like loads of people are on it and the general thread is getting pretty long. While we wait for movement, maybe we can share where we're waitlisted? and if we're on the waitlist or alternate. Alternate at LECOM SH...

Would be great if @Goro @LizzyM @gyngyn @gonnif and other people could shed some light on this for me. Let’s say I’m put on a waitlist for a school and this school was my only interview for the cycle. I’m operating under the assumption that I’m not getting in anywhere that cycle, since banking...

Hi everyone! The question is pretty much the title. I am a current OMS1 and my friend was recently waitlisted at my school. I was waitlisted last year so I have been giving him tips from my experience, but I was curious if there was anything I could do that could possibly bump him up the...

Just found out today that I’ve been waitlisted at my dream school, Cornell. I would absolutely love to attend there, but I’ve also been accepted by my second choice, Pitt. WL movement likely won’t start until May. I’m tired of playing the waiting game but I don’t think I’m quite ready to give...

Do the majority of successful applicants send letters of interest, updates, call the admissions office of the schools they are interested in/waitlisted at? I have not done any of that this cycle and have seen many people on SDN regularly emailing/calling admissions and staying in close...

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...

Hello! This is a survey to help collect data that reflect with more specificity the ultimate fates of applicants who attended at least one interview, particularly how many accepted applicants come from waitlists versus direct acceptances, as well as how often waitlists seem to actually turn into...

Hi All, If someone is waitlisted for a school 2 weeks post-interview, how many weeks after receiving this news would you recommend they wait before sending a follow-up "Letter of Interest"? I do not want to send the letter too early & it come across as desperate/needy. Similarly, I do not want...

Hello, I am currently on the waitlist for the dental school I applied. While I am waiting, the school's new application session has opened up, and the deadline for the early interview is next month. Does anyone know if I re-apply again, I have to give up being on the waitlist? I am going to...

Hello, I am currently on the Army OML for the 4 year HPSP. I have been since February. My question is basically, does anyone know if there is still hope to get off the waitlist at this point? I know in past cycles people have gotten off the waitlist around mid-June, but is July too late? Also...

Hey all, I posted a poll about a month ago to see where everyone was at. There’s been quite a bit of movement since then so just wanted to do an update. If you previously participated in the last poll, I’d appreciate if you could participate in this one as well. It’s anonymous.

Hey all, thought this might be an interesting poll to gage where people are at right now. Also kept it anon in hopes that more people will engage! Mods-My apologies if this is in the wrong place.

Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone else was placed on an alternate list/ waitlist for class of 2024 after interviewing at Midwestern's optometry program in Arizona. -If so, how long did it take for you to come off the list (if you did come off)? -Is it because all the seats filled up for...

Hi guys, I just wanted to make a group for those currently on the waitlist for PCOM-PA for the 2019-2020 cycle.

Hi Everyone, I'm a current ACLP student and figured it was a good time to start this years threads. Last years threads had a great intro so I'm just going to quote that. Past years threads also have lots of good information 2019-2020 2018-2019 Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

Hi all, So I've already been accepted (after match day, TMDSAS), to one school, and have already started sending my relevant documents and what not. However, i just got an email about being on the waitlist for another school that was originally ranked as my #1. If i get off of this school's...

Ok it's 2020, I no longer think it's too early for a WL support thread. Currently I have had 3 interviews, waitlisted for 2 of them and it H U R T S. Still waiting to hear back about the 3rd interview, but this was my worst one yet so I'm not too hopeful that this one will end up any different...

Hey guys. So I am currently sat on 5 post-interview waitlists after this application year. I applied to 9 schools and had 5 interviews. Here are my stats (I know it's long but just to give you a good idea): 3.85 cGPA, 3.95sGPA with 4x4.0's in a row my junior and senior year (got a 3.5 my first...

Let's wait out the storm together.

Hello I’m looking to start a thread for people on a waitlist. I think it could be helpful for people to get a better understanding of where they stand and what schools are still a possibility and what schools are a stretch for people at this point. Post what schools you currently have a...

I have been wait-listed at three schools and I am preparing for the worst scenario at the moment for a reapplication. I am currently in my last semester of undergraduate and I have a 3.92 cpga/3.91 sgpa at a rank 30-40 university. I have strong letters and EC's, and believe that there is not...

This thread was suggested so that applicants can view this information in one place so let's see if we can compile a list. Please feel free to make additions and corrections where necessary. Selecting "Commit to Enroll" at a school means that you're agreeing to communicate to your other...

I got waitlisted at MWU-AZ, and am not sure if I should email them updates about me acquiring my x-ray license and continuing to assist at a dental office for the past 8 months, as well taking an anatomy course right now. I updated AADSAS to reflect these changes a month ago, but just wanted to...

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

In terms of timing, if you have been placed on the waitlist, the best time to submit a letter of interest (or letter of intent) would be early May. Most medical schools require that students notify them of their decision by mid-April. Selection committees will be deliberating over who to accept...

I thought it would be nice to have a thread dedicated to commiserating our waitlist status. If you've been waitlisted like me, post which schools you're waiting on!! We got this guys!!!! :clap:

Starting this off as a continuation of last year's thread so we can post where we're waitlisted, what number rank we are, and what schools we have yet to hear from. And to update each other when people start getting pulled off the waitlist! I'm an alternate at Western (no number rank) and...

Hello! I am in the process of writing a letter of intent to a school that I got WL at (WL came about a month ago). I have significant updates I am planning on including in my LOI and know for a fact I want to go to this school in particular. What I am confused about is whether or not to list...

Where I Stand: > earned B.A. in history from UCLA; 3.17 sGPA, 3.5 oGPA; slight upward trend > 2 waitlists (USC, UDM); 2 rejections (Loma Linda, Midwestern-AZ); 8 still under review > pessimistic; will start preparing for upcoming cycle > have already taken a bunch of recommended classes...

I was waitlisted early November at the University of MN DPT. Anyone else? Does anyone know about the likelihood of getting in off the waitlist and when movement typically begins?

I'm going to be as open as possible with my grades and how I performed in my undergrad and would like to receive some advice on how I could strengthen my application. I completed my undergrad at the University of Toronto, taking 4 courses per trimester (5 is a full course load), taking the...

Hi!! For anyone who has been on Rutgers North waitlist, what was your experience with it? I am not sure if I should email or who exactly I should email asking for a general idea of where I stand cause i know they won't give an exact rank. Let me know your guys' experiences :)

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!

Does anyone have any updates/information regarding any movement on Toledo's waitlist to interview? I know the deadline for applicants to RSVP was on 11/19, but I haven't heard anything yet. I'm hoping that 20-some people declined the interview and that I can get pulled from the waitlist lol (I...
