rejected earlier today, pre-interview

if any matriculating students would like my collection of uconn tshirts, sweatshirts, or childhood dreams, hit me up
 
Sorry to bug the UCONN thread, but I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how strong the in-state preference is and average MCAT/GPA? I couldn't find this information online and did not buy MSAR

This is based off what I've read but don't quote me...

Around 75% in state, 25% out... Out of a class of 100ish expect 20-25 to be UConn Undergrad alumni.

GPA/MCAT for matriculants is around 3.7/33/512+ (not as sure for MCAT)

I talked to admissions and they said they'll be ranking the list mid April. Maybe this person supposedly on the high alternate list is confused

Not confused. They may be sending out HAs in multiple waves.

huskystar835 may have been a late cycle waitlist in which case they receive their priority status when first notified of being placed on the alternate list. anyone who was waitlisted early on will have to wait until they rank the list mid-april
 
Anymore new acceptance this week, Got placed in alternate list, very disappointed.
Now more waiting .

sorry to hear that me too a while back. Did you get placed on the supposedly existing high alternate list, or just the alternate list?

they have not ranked the waitlist yet, I assume. They will be ranking it in coming week or so and then let everyone know about their rank soon. so for now is only alternate list only , I guess.
 
Anyone have any luck getting admissions to narrow down an actual date for the alternate list ranking as opposed to just mid-april (it is now mid-april)?
 
UConn emailed me back today regarding a LOI I sent. They said they would be in touch as soon as they have more information regarding the alternate list.
 
I sent it Sunday 4/16 and they got back to me on the next day on Monday 4/17.
 
How do you withdraw an acceptance? I can't find anything on the web site.

EDIT: Withdrew via email so someone else can get my spot. Best of luck everyone!

No clue what they are doing... haven't heard anything and despite two emails and a call, the financial aid folks won't tell me what my status is or when I can expect my aid package.

I know, sorry I should've been more clear. I was attempting to say that its possible the whole school is moving slowly right now.
 
Just updated them about a newly accepted manuscript. Hopefully we get some good news in the coming weeks!
 
Interviewed March 27th and was put on waitlist. Anyone hear back on their alternate status?
 
I withdrew the weekend of April 29th, and haven't received my refund for my deposit. Has anyone else gotten theirs? Was it mailed or directly deposited into the account used to pay?

Actually came here to post the same question. Havent gotten mine yet either. When I withdrew they just said after May 1st.
 
Finally got ranked waitlist notification and not looking good for me. Best of luck to those who are high alt, while every year is different, in the past they offered seats to many of those on high alt.
 
just got my rank as well, still hope out there on the horizon. lets hope for the best!
