Got accepted. Does this school offer any merit scholarships? Is it determined at a later time?
 
Did everyone get the email at 3:51 or are they doing them individually?
 
Just got wait listed via email. 🙁

Better than being rejected!
Interviewed 10/12--didn't expect to hear back this quickly!
 
Waitlisted as well :/ interviewed the first day. 9/10. So much for being early in the process helping my application :/
 
Anyone small pooled on early september but not have an II yet?
 
emailed about being put on the waitlist about ten minutes ago. Interviewed 10/15.
 
DAMN, wait listed as well. I interviewed 10/17. I thought it went great and I really liked what I saw! This sucks 🙁
 
Got wait-listed via e-mail
Interviews 10/12, I dont know why I got waitlisted, thought the interview went well. O wellll
 
This sounds like a lot of us got wait-listed for it being only October 22, no??
 
Just got accepted via e-mail 🙂

Probably will withdraw though.

Me too!

There is still hope for all of us! Still early in the game!
 
Hmm...waitlisted too. This was actually my best interview, so this is interesting. Maybe they had already made up their mind before I got there. Would have bet a ton of money that I was in here...very interesting.
 
can some people who got waitlisted throw out some stats?
I just want to know where I fall
 
I'm also curious if their wait list has movement before May 15 or not...
 
I just counted 11 wait-lists and 4 acceptances from people who posted here. CONFUSED...

I can assure you it's not too high or too low stats...must be something else

thats weird, this was one interview i was confident about, and I've gotten into everyother school i have interviewed at.
 
Wait-listed as well. This is my 3rd wait list notification... not the best feeling and really hoping my luck turns around. MCAT 32-36, 3.8 ish GPA.

From the email, it doesn't sound like there will be movement before May 15th - "As positions become available in the entering class of 2013, your application will be re-evaluated by the committee for admission."
 
waitlisted LAME

Although I remember they said the waitlist is reviewed at every meeting of the admissions committee so hopefully theres hope, hopefully.
 
Waitlisted. How is the waitlist movement historically?
 
WAITLIST. Def felt the interview couldnt have gone any better.
 
So now the acceptance waitlist number on the forum is 4/15 for the first batch of decisions? That's awfully disheartening. Hopefully they go to the list before may!!

From last year's thread it looks like they reevaluated wait-listed folks each time the adcom meets. People got accepted after 1-2 months on the wait-list...although they also died a slow horrible death on the waitlist, too.

Waitlisted... 🙁 3.7 and 32R

I also thought the interview went well so I am slightly confused/disappointed

I felt the same way. I was sure I had this in the bag. Waitlisted as well. This large amount of waitlisted is really weird, especially considering their average MCATs, GPAs and admitted/interviewed. My stats were 3.79 gpa 31 MCAT
 
Maybe they want to see who is going to withdraw/who is commited. Can't think of any other reason for them to play this hand especially since several waitlists on here interviewed just days ago?
 
Well I'm sure glad (although not really...) that so many of us are in the same situation. I was seriously doubting my interview skills, but seeing as so many of us SDNers got wait listed... I'm not as concerned anymore haha. EEP!!
 
I'm hoping this is just something they do early on. Weed out those who are more interested in going vs. not.

Stats: 3.8c/3.9s/31S

I also though this interview went well (considering it was my first one).....
 
Many schools tend to WL most people in the beginning. Don't worry guys. You still have plenty of time to get in off the list. Like someone said above, they reevaluate applicants at each meeting.

But I know it's far easier said than done not to fret. Hang in there.

Waitlisted 🙁

I thought the interview day went so well too...Jeez.
 
Waitlisted.

The thing that seems so strange is that when I interviewed last week they absolutely told us we would not have a decision for 6 weeks. I am wondering and also hopeful that for some reason there was a glitch in their system. 3.8 / 32R

I nominate you to call them in the morning to ask 🙂. Definitely did not hear them say one week so I'm hoping there is a glitch.
 
Jeepers, I've been in the small pool for what seems like eons now. Sounds like I better not get my hopes up.
 
I am not sure I want to be one of THOSE neurotic pre-med students though. I will just voice my frustrations here on SDN. 🙂
 
Currently posted on SDN: 4 acceptances, 21 wait listed.

In case anyone was wondering. Hahah

that's crazy for SDN standards! Is med school admissions getting that tough, or is RF just really big into waitlisting?
