to those still waiting to hear!
Congrats everyone! Any past indication that there are more than one day of acceptance emails?
I received the email at 3:58!
I'm going to stay positive and not believe it quite yet
CONGRATS to all of those accepted! I am so excited to be your fellow classmate! Message me for my name so we can all become FB friends 🙂
To all of those still waiting: be positive!! they could still be sending out acceptance e-mails, and if not, you could get in off the waitlist!!

Congrats! Is there a fb group for accepted students yet. I still can't believe it.. Is this real life 🙂 we should start a fb group if there isn't one already

Yes they said that next week the package will arrive.
Yes it's been set for April 12th.
I live in Iowa City and no mail yet. Im staring out the front window basically waiting to tackle the mailman the second I see him. Im just hoping for a waitlist number of 15 or below. Congrats to everyone that was outright accepted! At the moment i am just going to live through you all vicariously.

Did you hear from a friend that they did arrive or did you call the admissions and they were sent today? Just asking since you said you got an acceptance email. Congrats on the acceptance btw!
Thanks for the clarification!
I'm waitlisted! Number 33. There's a slight chance of getting in I think....two years ago they took 29 and one year ago 31...so I will hold out! I still have my back up at DMU if needed.
I was so ready for a rejection that even 33, despite how large the number is, feels pretty darn good!!!
Third year applying, have my Masters in public health, 34Q MCAT, 3.67 undergrad GPA, 3.9 grad GPA...

I was told letters definitely went out on Thursday morning when I called to accept my offer yesterday... so you'll get it today! Good luck, I'm rooting for you!

I live in Chicago and there was nothing from Iowa in my mail today 🙁
Rejected via mail today. I'm off to my number one school! Good luck to everyone else!
Got accepted on Wednesday!! 2nd time applicant, in state, 36O/3.7.
To those not getting in, I feel your pain. After getting that rejection letter last year I was pretty devastated. But if Iowa is where you want to go keep your head up, ask them exactly what you need to do to improve your application, buckle on your hard hat and you CAN do it! If you have questions about reapplying or anything in the med application process, please feel free to message me.

An email I just got makes it seem like second look day is on April 13
"I hope you will reserve Saturday, April 13th, and plan on joining us for Get Acquainted Day. This is a great opportunity to get to know more about Iowa City and the college, and to meet many of your classmates."
Still no letter in the mail here 🙁

Got my letter today - I live in Des Moines. I am #19 on the in-state wait list. This is my second time applying. I'm accepted at DMU, but I think I'm going to remain on the Iowa wait list and see what happens. Good luck to everyone still waiting for their letters!
Waitlisted via snail mail today, #57, and subsequently emailed to withdraw. Good luck to those hoping for movement on the waitlist!
Edit: OOS

Haven't heard anything yet..... Pretty sure I'm at the bottom of the waitlist. If so, I will be withdrawing. Good luck to the rest of you
Number 15 on the OOS wait-list. Withdrawing. Good luck to everyone else!
Wait list No. 64..... Will be withdrawing... Good luck to the rest of you....
Rejected Saturday. 35Q/4.00, IS, non-trad. Best of luck to everyone!
Finally got my letter! Waitlisted, OOS, in the top 10. Remaining on it and keeping my fingers, toes, and everything else crossed!
Congrats Einstein! Top 10 on the WL seems pretty great, so I hope we get to be classmates next year!

#20 oos. cutting it close... haha
for those that are interested below are the numbers to which they pulled from last few years oos. I got it from looking at the old threads.
2012: 17
2011: 85
2010: 76
2009: 3
2008: 105
2007: 105
that being said, I didn't notice a correlation between # of applicants/applicants vs the waitlist movement. It's all random so sit tight and wait!

Does anyone knew if we can bring guests for the second look day?
Thanks! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Iowa, so I'm really hoping, too! 🙂 Congrats on the acceptance!!
That being said - is anyone else getting delivery errors when they email the admissions office ([email protected]) ? Trying to tell them that I want my Waitlist spot, but I keep getting delivery failure emails.
Could be that they are on spring break. They might have tried to set an auto-response service that failed.
That's weird! I sent mine a few hours back and I think it went through.
