How many are left on the alternate list ?
Anyone call and find out how many spots are still available ?

Probably a lot of people on the alternate list and not many spots left in the class based on the facebook group. I think there will continue to be gradual movement throughout June and July until orientation in August though.

Someone should go ahead and email/call though.

Was everyone who interviewed receive a waitlist spot ?

It appeared so. They did send out many rejections to people on the waitlist after traffic day. I believe everyone on the waitlist at the point was offered a position on the alternate list, but who knows how many responded.

Anyone have any luck with calling? Tried to, but was not given a lot of information on movement or size of alternative list.

It's probably full already and now we have to wait for the trickle of people dropping for other acceptances.

What did they say to you when you called?

 

[gator06]

What did they say to you when you called?

They said the committee is still meeting to go over perspective applicants and that the class is not full yet. The wait list will move as people decline and opt to go to other schools.

Would be nice to know how many people are on the alternative list though seeing that everyone not accepted was placed on the wait list. All we know of is that one rejection wave that happened a few weeks back.

Wow thanks for clarifying this. Guess we still have a chance especially as the Florida MD schools continue to pull people off the waitlist.

Thanks for the information. I wonder how many spots they have left

Thanks for the information. I wonder how many spots they have left

Same, I also wonder if the class isn’t full because people have dropped from the full class since the above poster called and the committee hasn’t met again yet, or if they have some reasoning behind leaving open spots and seemingly only taking off the WL as people take other acceptances

 

[qwerta]

Any new updates on the fb group, or in general?

 

[drabberbadge]

Fb group has 43 members
Anyone else call for more info ?

Of course it is full, it’s the end of May, but that doesn’t mean acceptances will stop. Few spots will continue to open up as waitlists at other schools move.

We still have all of June and July for some more waitlist movement before orientation in August, even though it may only be a couple more people...

have people been rejected yet post interview?

 

[MareNostrummm]

Where have you been.. they rejected a ton of people May 1st. There's still probably ~100 left on the waitlist though fighting for 10 seats MAX lol.

Thanks for clarifying that. We just have the rest of June and July for some more people to withdraw.

 

[MareNostrummm]

Rejected

Off the alternate list?

 

[MareNostrummm]

I was just rejected off the alt list. I never sent in any updates since I've been accepted to a school I'd prefer to attend.

Oh man... looks like another rejection wave.

 

[Starlight6]

Rejected from alternate list and I also sent a letter of intent before May 1st. But I am very happy with the school I am planning to attend. Everything happens for a reason

 

[ju2323]

I wonder how many people are left on the alternate list

 

[drabberbadge]

What’s the link to the fb group

 

[ineedhelpplse]

What’s the link to the fb group

The group is “secret” so I think you have to be invited to see it. Email Sandra and ask her to add you if you are an accepted student

How many people on the group so far

 

[fantasticman221]

Did the people that just got rejected respond YES to the alternate list/waitlist email?

 

[MareNostrummm]

Did the people that just got rejected respond YES to the alternate list/waitlist email?

I'd assume yes because they said they were actually rejected off the alternate list.

 

[maplecookie]

Aaannnndddd no scholarship money for me
Wonder how many people actually ended up getting one ._.

Was today the deadline?

 

[Yasuo]

They sent an email informing us that all scholarship monies have been awarded. Not everyone got one.

 

[qwerta]

Does that mean the class is finally full? Now that all scholarships have been awarded?

 

[MareNostrummm]

Does that mean the class is finally full? Now that all scholarships have been awarded?

Definitely. But there's still ~2 months till class starts so a couple more might drop.

Me neither... hey brightside is we're going to medical school!

Yeah thrilled and terrified in equal amounts but that ~100K COA is still a pretty bitter pill to swallow

 

[Whitecatmcgee]

I know. I know. Just do good on your step 1, and in classes and you'll match well and pay it off eventually. It'll be okay.

 

[fantasticman221]

I thought it was only 90,000 per year for OOS? Did they change it? Also, as people drop, will they consider newly accepted applicants for scholarship money?

 

[954SoFlo]

They sent an email informing us that all scholarship monies have been awarded. Not everyone got one.

So did you end up getting a full ride ?


EDIT: Woah COA is 100k? How much is tuition? Cost of living isn't that bad down here that you need 100k unless tuition is insane.

53k for in state, 60k for oos. Weird there is a difference seeing as it's a private school and all.

I remember during my interview they said that they would have some residency spots reserved for us at nova affiliate hospitals. I havent heard any information about this since. Anyone else have any information about this?

I'm guessing 200

 

[MareNostrummm]

Gotta be less than that... they already had 2 rejection waves off the waitlist and alternate list. Only a small portion of people actually report on SDN. What would be the point in keeping that many people on the alternate list, they will probably only accept ~5 more people at this point until class starts (no more than 10 MAX if a ton of people withdraw for some reason). Also some people on the waitlist already have other MD acceptances.

200?!!! Damn ... even if it’s 100 or 50 people at this point that’s way too much for a waitlist

Was this about residency spots or rotation sites for 3rd-4th years?

I'm pretty sure this was about residency spots

 

[awesomedoctorgirl]

Any waitlist movements recently?
