Thank you for sharing and congrats! Good luck all!

How long did they give you to decide?

Are you serious!!!! Got accepted at Geisel? wow, I thought there were no any movements... That's great dear, congrats... do you mind sharing your stats with us please...?

Congrats! When did you interview and when were you wait listed?

Thanks! They give you two weeks to decide from the date posted on the acceptance letter. I received a call, then an email with the letter attached. Formal letters are mailed out to your address on the same day. PM me for stats, although I will say I had a low undergrad GPA (for both cumulative and sciences), and a very high SMP GPA with a balanced MCAT score around Geisel's median. I interviewed on 9/17/13 and was wait listed on 4/1/14. Hope this helps!

When did you interview and wait-listed?

 

[PrettyInPink<3]

I interviewed pretty early on in the cycle and was wait listed way long after. Geisel was the dream! I hope many more are to be accepted!

 

[Shivamarion]

Accepted off the wait list today! I will definitely be matriculating. Best of luck to everyone!

Just sent an update letter. After seeing the WL acceptances, I couldn't myself.

Congrats, when did you interview?

Thank you, I interviewed on 1/30 and was wait-listed on 4/18. I sent 3 letters throughout the process and called admissions to make sure they knew I was serious.

I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I've sent in multiple updates including a publication and I've called and emailed several times to show interest and my scores are exactly their averages and I interviewed within the first couple of interview days. Ugh

If there were a hug button I could click in response to this I would. Here, let's call this a cyberhug: ( ) (See? The parentheses are like arms!)

Same here....

 

[bofocion]

Due to a promise I made to a significant other I withdrew from the wait list today. I wish you all waiting the best of luck and hope everyone of you has a very long and succesfull career!

Has there been any waiting list movement this past week or so?

I called last week and Andy said the class is currently full at this time.

 

[Fabio Lanzoni]

I called last week and Andy said the class is currently full at this time.

Does that even mean anything? Wouldn't the class always be full past the first round of wait list movement? I got similar feedback at another school

haha seriously, but I meant to indicate that it's not like they have a bunch of vacant spots to fill and are going to send another wave of acceptances. Instead it's going to be slow, if at all, since it's dependent on someone else withdrawing and given that it's a small class size, that just makes it even less probable.

 

[OneTwoThreeFour]

Took myself off the waitlist this morning. Doubt I was getting pulled off, but if I was at the top of the list I'm not anymore!
Good luck everybody.

Been traveling through Europe so I haven't spent any time on SDN lately but I wanted to pop in and say that wait list movement is still going on!

 

[rejoicealways]

When did you get accepted off waitlist?

Sorry, I don't have much internet connection out here - it was either Thursday or Friday. I didn't take the call since I didn't have service where I was but eventually got an iMessage from my parents on Friday morning that Andy Welch called to say that I got in!

 

[DenTony11235]

Guys what LORs did you submit? I got the idea that they only want committee/ letter packet, although I have more from volunteering/shadowing.
