Is it just me or anyone else is also intrigued by the fact that they reviewed 4/9 interviewees before 3/29 interviewees?

Yes, but maybe it's a good sign. Maybe they just put all the 4/9 interviewees on the alt list w/o reviewing, and are actually reviewing the 3/9 interviewees.
 
Interviewed: 3/12 Accepted: 5/2 🙂

Does anyone have any recommendations for where to live....or perhaps can point me in the direction of a housing resource? Thanks!!!
 
Yes, I want to know to where to live ? or where do med students live?
Thanks

The UTCOM incoming class of 2016 wikispaces page has a section with a bunch of links to common apartment complexes and also a thread about where to live. You should get an email with the info needed to access it. I'm guessing you'll get it soon since you were just accepted, but I don't know how quickly they send it.

A LOT (at least 20 - 30) of the first years live at Fox Chase in Holland, OH. It's about 15 minutes from the hospital, relatively safe/nice areas, and decent facilities. Others choose to live at Chelsea Place which is nicer but also a little pricier and farther away. I personally live at the Ridge at Tibaron and have had no problems here, so I'd recommend.d it especially because its a little shorter of a drive than other places. Also looj up Quail Hollow and The Hamlet. Those should get you started. Try and join the UTCOM Class of 2016 Facebook group as our class has been updating it for you with some good info on these types of questions
 
3/29 interviewee here..cant wait for wednesday..good luck to everyone waiting! i hope its not just a waitlist for everyone
 
First acceptance this morning! Interviewed on 3/29.
Good luck to everyone else who is still waiting!
 
Should 3/29 interviewees who haven't heard anything be expecting a wait list email? I'm guessing the fact that some individuals from that interview date have already been accepted is a bad sign for the rest of us.
 
i called them at about 4.30pm to know my status and i was placed on alt list..take it as u like it..she said the letters will be mailed here in couple of days..i dont know if email or regular mail though!

This may be totally wrong but I thought I recalled one of the students mentioning that the average was around 230 last year.
 
Looks like there is some waitlist movement. I received a phone call from the dean on Friday. Accepted! Good luck everyone!
 
Anyone know if there are any apartments/condos not too far from campus that are on the water (lake erie)?

If you don't mind sharing, which part of the waitlist were you on?

[Edit] Nevermind, I forgot they haven't told us (not me, at least) where we are on the list.
 
I withdrew today, good luck to everyone waiting for a spot!
 
Just withdrew yesterday! I really liked this school, and its shiny sim lab. Hope one of you gets my spot! Good Luck!
 
Withdraw like 2 weeks ago and got the confirmation letter/survey today. Good luck everyone waiting for an acceptance!
 
Thanks! I interviewed in early March, and I got waitlisted in early May. Good luck to everyone!
 
Any word on when the alternate list will be prioritized?

I called them yesterday and they said the committee will meet and we should hear sometimes in early June, if not earlier!
 
Has anyone heard from UToledo? Anyone recently accepted off the wait-list? Or are they doing most of their wait-list movement in the form of the prioritized list in June? I'm confused if they have been steadily accepting ppl off the waitlist or if its a mass movement type process.

I was just taken off of the wait list yesterday morning. They're only giving me 4 days according to the e-mail to make my decision, so they seem to want to keep things moving quickly.

Thanks to the above posters. Does anyone know if UTCOM waitlist usually moves pretty well? I'm really liking this school.

in all honesty... not really (well as much as other schools). Maybe top 30%.


I'll see y'all in the fall.

When I interviewed they said about top 25-35% get in off the waitlist. They don't do thirds like the other ohio schools but instead just do high priority (top half) and low priority (bottom half).

If you get on low priority chances of getting in are slim to none.
If you get on high priority you have a "better than 50-50 chance"

Yeah that is what I heard too..i am planning to send them an update letter and see if that can change their mind and lead to decision in my favor!
on another note, we both are in wait-list limbo for Toledo and Tufts, SpicyCurry!
 
Any word on acceptance/prioritization of the waitlist?

Actually I got in off the wait list at Toledo on 5/15, but yes still in limbo like you at Tufts still! But still a relief to have an acceptance.

Im not sure if the update letter did anything but I sent Toledo updated grades, senior awards, my senior research project results, and a rec letter from my senior project adviser on 5/2 and I got the acceptance on 5/15, so definitely try.

I hope something good works out for you man. If I get in at Tufts Ill be withdrawing from here to open up another spot so hope for that too!

I called them today and they said the committee will meet sometime this week and by early next week, we will hear regarding the prioritization!

SpicyCurry, that is great! Congratulations! I sent them a letter on Friday with the stuff you mentioned and i am waiting on another rec letter to be submitted from my boss at work!
So keeping my fingers crossed!
 
Interviewed April 9, Waitlisted a few weeks later? Accepted 5/31 and went ahead and turned down the acceptance (I got accepted to University of Cincinnat--my first choice last week). Hopefully one of you that's still holding out will get that spot!

Congratulations! This gives me hope as I interviewed April 9th too. I keep checking my email today hoping it's from Toledo!

Can I ask what third you were ranked in for UC?
 
Good luck to everyone on the waitlist. I remember being in your position last year. The waitlist moves pretty quickly. I heard from them on May 15th. But I know classmates who found out as late as Aug. So keep updating the committee.
And ya we do have a fb page. Search UTCOM 2016.
 
Called Kris at Admissions just now, she said they just had their committee meeting on Tuesday and won't know about our ranking on the waitlist for a couple of weeks.
