Members don't see this ad.

I talked to one of the honors students at second look this weekend at they said that this year there was 17 (I think?) from that program, which they said was the largest ever. They also said that next year it will go back to the normal amount.

Yep. There are 17 pictures under Medical Scholars Program on that photo of all the accepted people's pictures.

has anyone that didn't go to second look gotten their financial aid package yet? or does anyone know when we should expect them?

 

[Mr. Eagle]

If anybody is taken off the waitlist after May 1, please do let us know!

 

[medNmastiffs]

They told me over the phone that waitlist movement is very slow and steady through May and June. So don't get discouraged if it doesn't happen right away!
Good luck everyone!

Well, I have withdrawn, I hope you guys who are waiting get in! I loved it but just had an offer I couldn't turn down, so I imagine you guys will love it too!

@RunnerforLife14 Did you withdraw by emailing them?

Thank you!

 

[Mr. Eagle]

I wonder when is the earliest we can receive an acceptance from the waitlist?

 

[medNmastiffs]

Well, after they sort through all of the withdrawals, I suppose it could be as early as tomorrow... right?

 

[Mr. Eagle]

I guess so!

 

[appleee]

Accepted today! I was taken off the waitlist!

 

[Mr. Eagle]

Congrats! Did you get the call in the morning or afternoon, and would you mind sharing your stats?

 

[appleee]

Thanks! I got the call in the afternoon and LizzyM ~ 65.

Thanks! I got the call in the afternoon and LizzyM ~ 65.

Congratulations! Do you have any previous ties to UF or Gainesville, if you don't mind me asking?

Also, could you tell us how long they gave you to make a decision regarding accepting the spot off the waitlist?

 

[Mr. Eagle]

Contacted the admissions office and it looks like there will be little to no movement on the waitlist...

We made it through the first week!
