no news, my thinking is the best I can hope for now is to be waitlisted... this sucks. If the list was finalized yesterday and online portal didn't change, I doubt that I would receive an acceptance.

Thanks you too!!! very nerve racking.... I think it is silly that they don't post all the decisions, rejection/waitlist/acceptance online... seems like it could save money. Hopefully we both get accepted and they just "forgot" to update online.Im in the same boat and I kind of feel how you do but I am still hopeing for the best. Best of luck to you!
Nothing online or in my mailbox today. I called earlier today to see if they could give me a hint (I want to know whether I need to fill out the supplemental financial aid form due this weekend). The lady I spoke with said all the letters would be mailed tomorrow (Friday).
Are you referring to the uform?
Thank you for thisSorry I meant to write a few more "positive" thoughts!!
1. You will enjoy taking care of patients...no matter where you went to school!
2. Admissions committees are made up of people who are biased...so don't take it personally!
3. Many MANY of the great doctors I work with every day...went to small private schools, other state schools, private D.O. schools, international schools...it's where you train/residency and what you DO with your future which define you...not your school!!
4. The woman who was named the "top medical student" at my state school... got in on her 4th try and had been told by the Dean of Admissions to give up because she just wasn't suited to be a doctor... sound familiar??
5. Many of the doctors I work with who attended the U Med School (I did not) tell me they did not enjoy it, their teachers were obnoxious and arrogant, and they would discourage their children from applying/attending...sounds like the U of U has a lot of work to do.
6. The legislature did not increase the class size this year because a "deal" was make behind the scenes... don't push it this year because they needed other funding for physical facilities... they sold you out but I believe the class sizes will increase in the future...sorry
Again... I say go where you get in...keep your debt load down as low as possible... enjoy your schooling and residency as much as you can!! You don't want to "waste" 7-9 years of your life being miserable! It is fulfilling, fun, exciting and rewarding to be in practice... you will get there!!
