Just got placed on the alternate list...

Anyone have info on this? Chances of getting accepted off of it? My interviews went so great, I'm really surprised--and pretty disappointed--that I didn't get accepted.

Same thing happened to me, so I'd be interested in the answer to this question. I really thought I nailed my interview, but alas....

Yeah I'm really at a loss here. Two interviews and two waitlists so far. I think I let myself get my hopes up after this interview. Oh well

Same here, waitlisted.... I think the issue with having a great interview here is that EVERYONE has a great interview here --- with such a friendly, relaxed bunch of people it's almost impossible to have a less than great interview.

 

[Sheiko]

IS anyone on the high alternate list? Or is everyone on the regular alternate list until they rank it in March?

I was waitlisted too. Had a great interview and was decistated when I was waitlisted. Just need to stay positive and hope for the best. I contacted the Admissions's office and they said they have the ranked list up after May 1st (probly close to May 15th).

OOS Accepted today! Interviewed on 1/11. For those of you wait listed or rejected, don't give up! This was my FOURTH cycle applying after being wait listed at different schools for the past three years. If this is the career you want, don't ever quit on that goal.

 

[zkane11]

Is there a FB group yet for UConn 2021?

 

[Paperbag]

Accepted my offer today! IS, LM70 interviewed 3 weeks ago. Looking forward to meeting everyone who's going here and best of luck to those still waiting! Don't lose hope!!

? First time posting MCAT score...

 

[G-Husky]

Lets all play nice now...

 

[huskies403]

You can definitely get in with a 504, that's like a 27 on the old scale. Im assuming high GPA, URM, non-trad, and/or military?

 

[Yonko7]

Post-interview survey gave me a mini-heart attack, even though I knew it was coming

 

[Frustrated2016]

Is UCONN still sending out IIs? Has anyone received one this week?

 

[leagueofDravenMD]

Weren't mid January interviews suppose to hear back by now? I thought them say they would have decisions by early Feb.....

Edit: just waitlisted, LM 74, IS, interviewed 1/20. 🙁

 

[breezy2009]

does uconn reject post interview, or does anyone not accepted get added to the waitlist?

Wondering the same thing

 

[BeerHelpsMeStudy]

Here's to hoping for some good news this week for us all!

 

[Yonko7]

Did most people hear back about 4 weeks after their interview? Early Feb. II here

Same here -- haven't heard yet.

 

[cresent]

Did anyone get merit scholarship? I am going to apply to uconn med school this year in July

 

[BeerHelpsMeStudy]

Let's try this again... Maybe UConn likes it a little classier. Here's to hoping for some good news this week for us all!

 

[huskystar835]

Has anyone who interviewed in Jan or Feb had their status change from "interview invite" to "in committee" before receiving a final decision?

 

[Dolphan72]

Still at the application complete stage. Been there since 7/7. Any more IIs being sent out?

Wondering this as well, I'm OOS so I feel like this is just a silent rejection at this point

No, I'm thinking it's been delayed with the snowstorm

 

[huskies403]

Who's going to Second Look next weekend?

Me!

what do you mean by "have the ranked list up"? like for people on the alternate list to see?

 

[huskies403]

Ranked List is everyone on the Wait list. Based on the past few years, if you're on the WL you get assigned into high, medium, or low priority to get off

contacted admissions today and they said the snow cancelled their adcom meeting. They are not planning to meet next week, but possibly early the following week.

I second that! Reapplicant, Complete since late July... Haven't heard a thing from this school. Trying not to give up hope, which gets harder and harder as each day goes by...

 

[BeerHelpsMeStudy]

Admissions just told me that Feb interviews should hear back before the end of next week at the latest!

 

[G-Husky]

Hope to see some of you at second look today!
