CONGRATULATIONSReceived acceptance call today!
Damn 🙁. But don't give up yet ... from everything I've heard, Miami is one of the schools where the alternate list isn't a rejection! There's still hope.Alternate list. 🙁
+ 2
""""Currently""""""" under review since early September. I wonder what is worse, the interminable suffering with an expectation of rejection or the actual final rejection ("thank you for your interest")? If we taken into account the fact that hope is a complete illusion, it must be the latter, no? ...what will become of us? First post!
DId anyone else who was supposed to hear back today (I interviewed in late Nov) not receive any sort of communication? No alternate list email, etc...
when were you complete? Congrats!II this morning!
CA resident, MD/MPH, when I click the link and log in, it still says my application is under review? Did I get this II email in error?

For those of you who have already interviewed, when should I leave my hotel the morning of my interview? I am staying like 5 miles away and want to account for early morning traffic.
Current MS1 here, have some time to spare, checking in to see how everyone is doing 🙂 Happy to help with any questions about our program! I am not involved with admissions though, so I can't really speak to much in the way of admissions/statuses/what are my chances/etc!

Thanks for checking in! Do you know by any chance, how much of your class gets pulled off the alternate list? Not like a specific number but like "Oh they take quite a bit" or "no too much" etc. In terms of the school, what do you love best about living in Miami haha

Do you know anything about the cost of dual degree programs? My tour guide said that the tuition for the extra year for MBA was around $20k, which is significantly cheaper than other schools. Is it like that for all the dual degree options?
It is not.
MD/MPH you must apply to as an incoming student (it's not something you can tack on after you matriculate), and that programs tuition is the cost of OOS tuition, regardless if you are a FL resident or OOS resident.
The MD/JD program is basically med school, with a break during which you attend law school, and as I understand it is the full rate of tuition for both MD and the JD components.
I am not sure about the MBA program, but you might but I am skeptical that it's a mere $20K more, unless that student was an MD/MBA student themselves. You may want to follow up with the office of admissions at the UM Business School to ask. Alternatively, financial aid office for either UM Med or UM biz can help you with this one. Not sure the office of MD admissions is the best jumping off point for this one though (they'd likely forward you to these other offices)
It varies year to year how much they take from the alternate list. What did I like best about living in Miami? Always being able to see the beach and cycling on key biscayne.
Do all applicants that are not offered an acceptance end up on the alternate list?
Really?? I was under the impression every0ne was waitlisted if you were not accepted post-interview....No. Some are rejected.
That doesn't make me feel better...Really?? I was under the impression every0ne was waitlisted if you were not accepted post-interview....
wow makes me feel a tiny bit better lol
That doesn't make me feel better...
It's always better to be on a waitlist than get a rejection. At least you're still in the game on a waitlist. As someone who doesn't have a single acceptance yet, that is my stance.Why not ? Wouldn't you rather be rejected then at the bottom of some wait list with false hope?

Is there anyway to find out your ranking on the alternate list?
