Just checked my status online and was accepted off the waitlist. First and only acceptance after 2 cycles and 47 apps, so I will almost certainly be accepting. Good luck.

Congrats! That's almost the whole top third, at least here on SDN!

i'm considering abandoning hope for the bottom third. looking through past years of the waitlist thread reveals that no one really claims to be accepted from that third :/
 
Just withdrew my acceptance... good luck to those waiting on the waitlist!

I wouldn't say that. You could be at the very top of the bottom third, and have a great shot. There's just no way to know right now. We have had at least one person so far move up to the middle third from the bottom, so there is still hope for you.

They seem to be moving pretty fast this year, so they could get to the bottom third faster and accept more people.

Not sure if anyone noticed this, but apparently there's been a tuition increase for 2011, since the tuition for 2010 was 18,800 shown here at http://www.smbs.buffalo.edu/ome/admission/admission_tuition.htm
and the tuition for 2011 is 24,850 shown here at http://financialaid.buffalo.edu/costs/medcost.php.....just saying as i'm still dreaming for this school:laugh:

That $18,800 tuition is outdated by a few years. In-state first years in the class of 2014 paid $22,800 for the 2010-2011 tuition.

The increase to $24,850 for 2011-2012 is still a 9% increase over last year, though, so that is pretty significant.

Ah i see...thank you Max🙂
 
ocfdoc, I would have bet money you would have gotten in today... maybe they didn't accept today because there were 2 withdrawals.
 
Anyone else have trouble with paying the deposit online?

Yea, make sure you accept the acceptance before trying to make deposit.

You can accept the spot by going to interactive graduation application site that was sent through email.

It takes few days afterwards for deposit site to recognize you

I ended up just sending check via snail mail

I went to accept the spot on interactive graduate program and noticed something interesting.

When you look at the "status" tab, the date for the acceptance/admit was 4/14/2011 though I didn't see change in my application status until 5/03/2011.

Can anyone else confirm difference too?

So maybe it's worth a while to call them up and have them check for you too ^^

Good luck~
 
I had the acceptance/admit 4/14/2011 as well, and I was notified on 5/05/2011. I was wondering if everyone else had that as well.
 
anyone know if asl2g4u moved up to top third or if they are in the middle now?

Yea I didnt get an interactive graduation application site. I just got a packet in the mail. How long did it take for the email to come in? I sent the check via snail mail anyways.
 
dr p3pper got accepted to USC (his 1st choice) so he likely withdrew.

I guess it is time to call

Something's up. They're having plenty of problems with their systems lately it seems, so maybe you slipped through the cracks. Best of luck.
 
I feel your pain middle student...it's ridiculous how often I check this discussion thread.

But I feel like we definitely have a good chance since they seem to be in the middle third already.
 
dr p3pper got accepted to USC (his 1st choice) so he likely withdrew.


Wow... Good for him. That was one of my first choices too... Didn't even get an interview. Funny how I got into UB before him/her.

EXACTLY!!...I have been checking my status at least 3 times a day.......im not optimistic about my position in the middle third tho (always think im at the bottom of middle third for some reason...) Anyway, god bless us poor waitlisters🙂

Awesome thanks! Did Mr Rosso say anything about odds of getting accepted if we are in the middle third? He was saying 50/50 a while ago, but just wondering if that had changed because they are accepting from the middle third now.

It's definitely higher than 50/50; if you look at previous years' threads you'll see they went through the mid third almost every year.
 
Awesome thanks! Did Mr Rosso say anything about odds of getting accepted if we are in the middle third? He was saying 50/50 a while ago, but just wondering if that had changed because they are accepting from the middle third now.

Hey..yeah he said 60%
 
Im going to Stony Brook.

Hey jgonka, if you don't mind can you give me some insight into why you chose SB over UB? I fell in love w/ the UB program but the distance from family and friends is what's making my decision hard!

Also if anyone has any insight into either programs, I'll really appreciate it!!

BTW congrats to all who just got recently accepted!!

I chose SB over UB for a couple of different reasons. One im from buffalo, and I wanted to move away and experience something new. Two i went to UB for undergrad and although i know i got an amazing education at UB im kinda tired of the campus. Also i really loved that SB is located in the hospital, I like the fact that just a couple floors away are actual patients. Also, the students at SB all seemed so happy to be there, and the impression that I got was that the everyone is really close knit there and they are like a big family. Also the administration at SB seems to be extremely supportive of their students, and listens to their needs and wants. SB also has a student run clinic which i really liked. As far UB med goes they are planning on incorporating their UB 2020 plan which means there will be making changes to the medical school. I do believe these changes will only further improve the medical school, but I do not believe they will be implemented in time for the class of 2015 to benefit from them. However, whether you end up at UB or SB one thing is for sure you will get a great education at either school. I say do what feels right for you. Best of luck!
