This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Haha yeah, I did, just eager to hear back that's all. Your suggestion was a good one, thanks for all the help!
No worries- maybe you're in and they're holding on to the extra acceptances for tomorrow! Fingers crossed for you- let us know how it goes!
 
Accepted students: has your "criminal background check" checkbox been checked on your appstatus yet? I did mine about a month ago and it hasn't updated yet. I emailed them last week but haven't heard anything yet.

To everyone on the waitlist. It feels like 75% of the class (including myself) got in off the waitlist. Know several people who got in from May (me)-one week before classes started.

While I know it is difficult to wait on a decision, just remember you aren't out of luck just yet.

Thanks for the encouragement! Was it difficult finding a place close to campus after getting accepted so late?

Not OP. Your class will send out a google document talking about living situations and places to rent. Also, your facebook page will get tons of postings from fellow M1s and above asking if you want to move in with them or take over their contract. Don't fret.
 
Yeah I haven't heard back yet either. But seeing so many 1/30 people also saying they didn't, makes me wonder if they had so many apps to review that it got pushed to the next date. I know that in the past acceptances were sent on Friday and waitlists on Monday but seeing that both have gone out already I can't be sure that's the case this time.

I'm sure the people in silence will likely have their decisions delayed to the next round of acceptances. Last year I was told I would receive my decision at the end of October, but all these people from earlier interview dates heard back a day earlier than we expected. The next day we received an email that our decisions would be delayed till November. Look out for that email if you interviewed later than the people that heard.

Thanks! I didn't get that email and those who interviewed on my day heard back...my portal still says Med School Invite to Interview. not sure what this means.
 
I'm sorry if I'm out of line, but I think you should stop prying for information.

Knowing his whole life story is not going to help either of you get off the waitlist. There's really no need to compare. But if you chose to do so, just pm each other.

I don't think that's your concern I can do what I want and he is welcome to refuse.

I am not comparing anything I am simply seeing potential areas of weakness that they look for.

He is a she. Let's just say my clinical volunteering isn't the best due to working almost a full time job during undergrad.

Me! when I saw the post about MRX this morning, I immediately checked my portal and just checked again...let's hope those who are still MR are getting those lucky last II's!

I already paid a deposit for msucom but if Wayne offered me an II then acceptance it would be such a difficult decision, I really don't know what I would do lol

I hope that ends up happening to you haha In the end you'll pick the right school that fits your personality and goals and you'll do great! Good luck!

For those who have interviewed.. can I bring a backpack to put my wallet and keys and things? Is there a locker to store stuff like this?

No locker but there is a U-shaped coat rack area in the admissions office where quite a few people left their luggage with no issues.
