As far as I understand, everyone from wait-list gets moved to alternative list after every spot for this yer is taken. So that's why I was moved to alternative list, but I assume that someone withdrew their acceptance offer? I was on the top third 🙂

So did you get accepted?? Your wording threw me off a bit

Yay congratulations!! Same story for me.
Originally waitlisted top 1/3 and was mailed a handwritten letter of encouragement from a current student. Less than a week later from getting top 1/3 mail, I got a call offering acceptance!! Quick turnaround and best of luck to everyone else waiting!
 
Also—has anyone shared the Facebook group for the class of 2022? I can’t find it when I search
 
Anyone doing the pre-matriculation program? If so, what are your plans for housing?
 
Also hoping to do the prematriculation program. I applied but have not heard anything about it yet. Have you?
 
Applying next cycle but figured I would get some opinion here.

Is this school worth throwing an app at for a low-stat, OOS applicant? (3.2 cGPA, 3.9 pbGPA, 510 MCAT, MA resident, great ECs).
Not sure whether this school rewards reinvention, is open to a Mass resident, or has a lot of regional bias.

Theyre big on community involvement/helping the underserved, so if your app is centered around that, I think its worth it

Cool - thank you. I will probably give it a go. I know they have a low OOS yield (percentage wise). Does the school have regional bias? I would be applying as an MA resident.

Im not too sure about that. MSAR shows where they accept students from, state wise.

True, but MSAR doesn't provide quantitative distribution of OOS acceptances. e.g. if there was 1 versus 15 students accepted from MA.
 
Does anyone know the first day of orientation/the first day you have to show up to school? Just trying to get all the dates for my waitlisted schools. Thanks!
 
7/8 is the white coat ceremony and orientation starts the Friday before.
 
I am late posting the news, but I got the call this past Tuesday and have been accepted. This is my first acceptance and I am stoked! I am OOS in Tennessee. I was top 1/3 of list.
 
I don't suppose their quick movement through the waitlist would mean they'd reach the bottom third tier, would it?

Probably, but only the top quarter/half of bottom tier will get an acceptance.
