So are there different tiers of waitlists? Or is everyone priority waitlist?

Priority alternate list letter received!

 

[kermy]

so is "prioritized alternate list" different than a waitlist? I remember Eubanks touching on this in my interview but I forgot.

 

[geauxtigers2022]

Priority alternate list letter received!

FYI I’ve also heard of them sending rejections today too

 

[mafiacat8]

I got the alternate list as well. What do you think the chances are of being accepted from this? Does anyone know?

 

[SouthernDoc2Be]

Can someone confirm that priority alternate list is separate from waitlist?

Just talked to admissions, they said they are “similar” but wouldn’t give me any more info

Lol. Classic. I’m now more confused!
So does this confirm that there are two lists or just that the term “priority list” is basically equivalent to “waitlist” at other schools?

Similar as in they have two separate lists that are theoretically similar or similar as in what other schools call their "waitlist" is similar to what LSU calls "the priority alternate list"???? UGH WHY DO THEY HAVE TO BE SO SECRETIVE

 

[mafiacat8]

I know. It's really anxiety inducing. Some clarity would go a long way. All we can do now is wait and see....

 

[SouthernDoc2Be]

The FB group is still kinda low but honestly, with all the uncertainty, I think it's best to just reapply. Who know where we are on this mysterious priority list. Like is that the first 5 people on the WL or is it like 15?! Who tf know?!

 

[minalu]

Southerndoc, do you know how many people are usually in the class FB? Currently, it’s around 200 minus the mods/admins, right?

 

[SouthernDoc2Be]

Yes, comparing to previous years -- it typically gets up to 250+. You all can join me in my neurotic-ism by following the group here: Log into Facebook | Facebook

So I just called to make my file check appointment with Eubanks and also asked for clarity on the "prioritized alternate list." Ms. Kimberly told me that there is only "one list" and people are picked from the top until the class is full. That is all she could tell me.

Is it showing up? Looks like the log in link but when I click it, it takes me there.

 

[minalu]

Yeah it shows up, just gotta log in. Thanks!

Got my rejection letter today :/ can anyone tell me what the meeting with Dr. Eubanks would entail? Trying to see if the drive to NOLA is worth it

Glad to be free of the stress though! I live in New Orleans and set up a meeting in early June - if you message me around then I’ll tell you how it goes.

 

[hemobrobin]

I just withdrew my acceptance, hopefully it goes to on of you!

 

[SouthernDoc2Be]

Accepted off of the waitlist today!

 

[mafiacat8]

Accepted off of the waitlist today!

Congrats!

 

[kermy]

Has anyone met with Eubanks yet?

 

[ojms]

When is the enrollment or registration? thanks

 

[camaburris]

Rejected pre-secondary from this school. I read on their site that GPA is their most important criterion, and I didn't feel too bad afterward.

If you don't mind me asking, what was your GPA?

 

[mafiacat8]

Just got my rejection letter.

 

[Zuck]

For any people who applied through the Early Decision Program, when did you get contacted about scheduling an interview?

 

[WannaBeDoctorDad]

Anyone know how long it takes to hear back after the initial 'your application is under active consideration" email? Thank you.

 

[mehovell]

I may have totally missed the answer to this somewhere above, but where did everyone upload their driver's license and social security card? In the million slots they do have for uploads, that doesn't seem to be one. Did y'all just put it in another one of the secondary slots?
