Ah! Looking at this makes me so jealous of you all starting in August! I can't wait to be in med school and learn all of it 🙂Not sure if this has been posted but here is the academic calendar link. http://www.ohsu.edu/xd/education/sc...on-Class-of-2019-academic-calendar-042915.pdf

Dang the waitlist is moving quick it seems.Whooooweeee #45 accepted today !!
Loving these updates
Because we want to be in class with you exit onlyDang the waitlist is moving quick it seems.
32! Don't lose hope!less than 100 to go! lol
46 NOW!!
I know someone with a waitlist acceptance who will be declining and going elsewhere. So the waitlist will move at least one more spot lol. Does anyone know how many outstanding acceptances are out there?? (Number of spots still available/undecided)
I'm all for more hope! Didn't think they would tell us that... I figure that as students decline/refuse acceptances within the 1 week allowance, they admit new students from the wait list immediately, therefore I don't think there would be open spots..
I'm not understanding. But they do not over accept at all. If a spot opens they go to the next waitlist number.I meant of the individuals coming off the waitlist, how many actual spots are still available. Another way to look at it is, the difference how many acceptances were acted upon and matriculating versus the available seats. Does that make sense or am I explaining this poorly?

Yeah I don't think you'd ever be able to know, because some may go unless they get offered somewhere else they preferred. But I don't think it's a quantifiable number, would be awesome though.Yes, that all makes perfect sense but my question is different. In your above example you state "that would mean that there was only 135 people still holding acceptances".. So, if they accept 146, that means 11 spots are undecided. That #11 (undecided spots) is what I was asking about. How many of those spots are available?? Another way to put it... How many people of the 146 current acceptance offers currently out there are undecided on matriculating to OHSU?

I think the key is in the difference of meaning of "students holding acceptances, " which is different from "guaranteed matriculants"Yes, that all makes perfect sense but my question is different.

yup, so difficult to be sitting here.. speculating on the game of med schools!Exactly! You hit the nail on the head there.. A lot of variables play such as people with current acceptance offers coming off wait lists at other schools where they prefer (as exit only said.)
Hahhaha me too man :/ it can go anywhere.How far do you guys think the waitlist will get to by july based on current trend? I just don't want to make it rain on another amcas application....
Just apply to one school to start, then it gets you in the queue. Then apply to more if you don't get inHow far do you guys think the waitlist will get to by july based on current trend? I just don't want to make it rain on another amcas application....
If you are accepted I'd encourage you to join the facebook group. Definitely has some helpful information. https://www.facebook.com/groups/OHSUSOMCO2019/
Some information on housing, essentials of anatomy is .99 cents on the App Store right now, some events on campus (they are today so a little ). I think that's most of it so far.I don't have Facebook. Any notable announcements other than 8/10 start date and 8/14 white coat ceremony?
I think it was held at PSU so there was no limit, not sure if that is happening this year.Does anyone from last years entering class remember how many tickets they got for the white coat ceremony?
Rooting for you guys!3. In the 60s... I'm planning on reapplying, but am sitting hard on crossed fingers!!!
yea, scheduled next Wednesday! 🙂Being wait-listed means they want you, they just do not have enough room to take everyone they like. We are so close! I know we will be doctors it's just a question of when 🙂.
Does anyone have their exit interviews scheduled yet?
Did you just call the admissions office to set that up?yea, scheduled next Wednesday! 🙂
