Withdrew my acceptance here. The tuition just makes it too hard. Good luck to those of you on the wait list!

Looks like waitlisters won't be hearing anything for at least another two weeks...the suspense!!!

 

[Jarvis22]

More suspense. Original email said after April 30th. I guess May 16th is after but still. Email sent yesterday also said the class is currently full.

Does anyone know if there's a deadline to accept the financial aid award and if there are any disadvantages to waiting to accept any part of it? Thanks!

 

[Plastics12]

Withdrew my application. Good luck to everyone!

Does anyone know this years overall waitlist movement compared to pasty years? Last year it seemed like every school had slow or no movement, possibly due to increased number of applicants. This year was another record breaker, if my information is correct. Is anyone on multiple lists seeing movement at those schools?

It was my impression that the waitlist last year did not move at all. Creighton actually went over the allowed number of students for their M1 class because more people held on to their acceptances than they anticipated. This year there have already been a few waitlist acceptances so I think they are doing things differently (more strategically) than previous years.

Where did you hear that there were any waitlist acceptances? In an email I received about the alternate list, they said that the earliest they would accept people from the list was May 16th and that their class was full at the time of the email.

Any waitlist movement?

I've checked my application portal so many times that now I'm getting Creighton ads on every website I visit...

[Jarvis22]

Yeah I've stopped checking it and/or my email so frequently. Not worth the chronic mental fatigue.

Any waitlist movement?

Yup! I got accepted off the waitlist on almost two weeks ago.

Congrats! I guess that means they have exhausted their pool of excess acceptances. Hopefully the waitlist movement continues!

Any other waitlisters have the "A decision has been made on your application" link disappear (where it would take you to the page where you accepted alternate status) on the application portal?

You mean you don't see that line at all? I see that line, and there's a link next to it that says "Click to review your next steps."

The waitlist is still moving!

The waitlist is still moving!

Did you hear back today?

As of this morning my application portal is telling me that they have not received my AMCAS primary application. I can't even check my alternate status or send updates. Is this what happened to you?

For me the "A decision has been made on your application. Click to review your next steps" link disappeared. The following morning I was accepted

I got accepted earlier this week. They sent an email in the morning and called a few hours later. I didn't see the email before they called. I was told that a spot opened up last week. As for the portal thing--I hadn't checked mine for weeks so I can't help you on that one unfortunately. Good luck!
