Does anyone know the new email address?

I called today because I sent an update to the old email address yesterday and Joan said that they are being forwarded to the new email.

By chance when you called, did you get any more information regarding the wait-list?

Or anyone who has called the office recently for that matter?

No, I figure its a moot point right now. All they would say is how many (maybe) and that you won't here till after May 15, neither of which will improve my mood.
 
Is anyone still waiting for a response post-interview? Interviewed 2/16 and haven't heard anything...
 
I'm still waiting too.

Decision emails reported on sdn so far: (a for acceptance, w for waitlist)
Mar 13 a
19 a
23 aw
26 w
27 w
29 w
30 aw
Apr 3 w
6 a
9 w

Seems like they're almost filled up and that it's slowing down.

Maybe you guys should call. Last year there's an error in the system and some of the decision emails didn't get through to the recipients, who had to call to find out.
 
Hey, any student hosts willing to take us in for at least 1 night during second look weekend to help us cut down on costs. Also anyway we can start a facebook group to get to know eachother, and possibly find ways to carpool for second look if anyones driving from the same area?
 
I just called and asked if all decisions have been sent out post-interview and was told (by Dina?) that they haven't and are going out every day. Can anyone else confirm? Seems pretty late to be waiting for a wait list email... Maybe it's their method of rejection? 🙂

There is a facebook group: Dartmouth medical school class of 2016
 
How important is second look if I know for sure I will be matriculating in the fall?
 
Got my straight rejection email yesterday (post interview). Good luck to those still waiting.

Sorry man. At least you've been accepted somewhere. But I know ... it hurts
 
sorry to hear lunt, thanks for posting and helping us out! ... seems like a pretty quiet day today? Any news?
 
Is Dartmouth finished sending out acceptances?
 
Darmouth pleeeeeeeeeaaaaase accept me off the wait list! 😍
 
I received my financial aid award this week - took them about two weeks to process my paperwork. I'm pretty happy with it, though I will need to take significant loans.
 
Did it arrive in the mail or by email? Has anyone else received theirs? I've had mine in since February and haven't heard. This has me worried that there was something wrong...

I submitted everything about 1 month ago and haven't received anything.
 
They sent me everything by e-mail [PDFs]. Why don't you write to Betty Fulton [[email protected]] from their financial aid office asking about your package? I have been corresponding with her and she has been very prompt and helpful.
 
Out of curiosity, when is the second look weekend and is it okay to go if you're wait-listed?
 
I had the same question and the admissions office said no 🙁. I guess we will just have to wait!
 
Hmm I didn't receive that email... But I also sent a letter of update last week, could that be why?
 
I didn't get an email yet either. Just the original waitlist email a couple months ago.

I didn't get it either but i have sent them a couple updates since I received my wait list email a month ago.
 
I got that e-mail too this morning. Pretty odd. I actually sent an update letter too to Andy as well as the admissions office. Maybe it's time for another one?

I had sent one in early April and got the e-mail yesterday. I just replied back I was still interested and referenced the date I sent them the LOI.
 
I bet there are just two or three email lists being used. Seems unlikely that they wouldn't ask on the basis of having sent a letter of update.
 
Seems like you guys are sending a bunch of LOI. I sent one way back in December, but nothing has really changed since then. Could anyone tell me what sorts of things they are saying in their letters?

Thanks 🙂
 
I'm guessing all the acceptances have gone out and it comes down to us on the wait-lists now (just judging by how quiet it has been lately)... on the plus side, 15 days left 😀

haha you're right that is more realistic🙂... I was just trying to side with optimism because when you look back on the message boards in previous years, quite a few people receive invites off the wait-list within the first couple hours and days of the 15th. I'm just really excited/nervous for these outcomes!

That's good to know!

Not really. As per AMCAS, June 1st is the last date for deferral for the incoming class of MD2016. Generally, movement after June 1st is basically nil.

So essentially we have from May 16th till June 1st, a mere 14 day window.

Good luck everyone 🙂
