Does anyone know what the GPA/ MCAT cutoffs are? I am a NY resident if that has any impact. I can't seem to find the data on their website.

it makes no difference when you were complete, they say they use a 'random review' process.
And that's what I hate...
Hi everyone, I've made the SUNY Buffalo Waitlist thread here, please fill in the data as the interview season begins! Good luck to all applicants!

Do any of you know where I would be able to submit 'additional' information and/or if the admission team will actually take this into consideration? Most of the other schools have tabs on the secondary where you can update admissions about certain things you do throughout the year. Does anything like that exist for Buffalo?
Buffalo doesn't accept additional info
I think you can send them updated information after you receive an interview invite.
Any II's this week so far?
it will take a while after submitting since they change it manually. Sit tight and smoke some hookah 😉

Any recent II yet?
Not sure what URM stands for haha, but MCAT was 508, GPA 3.62 coming from an engineering background.
I love this school! 🙂

Received II about an hour ago (OOS). Complete 8/10. Very excited to tour this campus and meet with faculty.
Ugh I really would love an II from here!!!!!!
+1
...It's my 4th time applying here and I hope that they have sympathy in their hearts for someone who may lose at something 4 times.
I hate their random process!!!
I'm a 3rd time applicant here, I have a feeling me and you are gonna get accepted this cycle 😀
I actually think its kind of helpful. If it is truly "random" (which I personally don't believe...), it should make us calm down. 528+4.0+HYP undergrad has the same likelihood of being reviewed with a more humble application...none of this "let's interview the top tier candidates first and follow up with bums for our waitlist..." mentality that most other medical schools incorporate
As much as I'd like to believe this, I don't think this really what happens. It could easily be random, but in a different way. For example, they could devise everyone into tiers based on MCAT and GPA and randomly select from each tier, starting with the top tier. So the people with the highest stats get chosen first, but randomly. Anyways, I'm just speculating aha
That's literally what I was thinking. Additionally, I think they categorize all the reapplicants into a separate pool which they also "Randomly Review." lol
congrats!

Complete since beginning of July. Im losing hope from Buffalo 🙁
I am! I'll be there tuesday night --come get wings!
HAA where see your there
Someone posted a link earlier in the thread
Check Your Application Status - Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences - University at Buffalo
I don't really find it helpful unless you're just looking for a complete status. Unless I've missed something no ones stated gaining an II or additional information from it once you're complete.
Woops okay! That is good to know. Mines said complete forever.
They have everything except GPA and MCAT
Have any rejection letters been sent yet?
For all the reapplicants here:
Reapplying - Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences - University at Buffalo
"When you reapply to our school, we will give you the same consideration as first-time applicants."

Same here, I was banking on this school. But I've heard this school doesn't do rolling admissions, so someone who submitted in September can get reviewed before us.
