Use all the free resources available to you from SDN: articles, guides, expert advising, forums discussions, and school research.
it worked a couple hours later!
Just one persons perspective but you should keep them separate, focus on getting in first, and just that!
Is there a Facebook page for accepted students to chat? Like if students want to talk about potential housing issues?

If you search up "Albert Einstein College of Medicine Class of 2024" there seems to be an active page
Any other accepted students receive financial aid info? I filled out the forms as requested last week but didn't get a package yet.

Question for the accepted, Einstein should have the background check Certiphi thing right? There’s nothing new we have to do with that? It’s automatically added to newly accepted schools as long as we filled it out before?
I didn't receive any yet either. It might depend on when you responded to their financial aid office.

It exists, but it seems to be the most dead facebook group i've seen from all med schools. There has been maybe two posts and it was made months ago

Does anyone know how long it typically takes for Certiphi to complete your background check? I'm nervous that they may not process it in the 5 day window we are given.

Anyone know how about many people in the Facebook group are current students/admin?
I didn't even get an email from them yet. I filled out a background check through them for a different school earlier in the year and I think it only took a few days.

I didn't receive an email from Einstein about it either. But, I searched "Certiphi" in my email, and found the email I got after I received my first acceptance. Apparently I never completed it, so I submitted it today. If Certiphi already completed your background check, is it possible to simply release it to Einstein?
They sent me a package a few minutes ago and it was literally all loans
Following this. Does anyone know if we send official transcript to admissions or to a different email address?
Also to answer you second question, I heard that housing forms where gonna be sent out in late May. Not sure about its veracity though.
I emailed the finaid office yesterday to ask and they said they'd be sending one "shortly"
Yea they said the same to me, I thought that meant within a couple of hours

Do we think there is gonna be more waitlist movement?
I think so, they’re giving 5 days for people who got accepted yesterday to accept their admissions. So I think Pretty soon there will be movement, this is all speculation though.

I’m sure this has been answered before, but how exactly do you know whether you’ve been places on the HPWL or regular waitlist?? any guidance would be much appreciated ◡̈
People have said a decision with the email subject ROLLING ADMISSIONS is HPWL, and the other regular is WAITLIST. But all speculation as they have never actually stated that
if your email said “Rolling Admissions status”, then it was assumed to be on HPWL. If it said “Waitlist” then that meant waitlist essentially.

Did everyone on HPWL get the promotional email last night?

They do not. They come with fridge, stove, overhead lights in kitchen, bathroom, and living room but not bedrooms (bring a lamp!) but otherwise unfurnished. If you get assigned upperclass roommates they will probably have common areas already furnished. There is a facebook group called Einstein COM Marketplace where upperclassmen will sell furniture and stuff super cheap so that's a great option (also a great place to buy cheap textbooks).
Regular waitlist email a few days ago :/ Sending a letter of intent today. Anybody have an idea what my chances are?
Hi there,
According to MSAR, there are 275 waitlist positions offered and 75 applicants are offered admission off of it. I do think those numbers represent both HPWL and WL combined.
Best of luck!
I just received an email from admissions that I haven't submitted my acknowledgement of acceptance nor the technical standards form, even though I submitted them on their website on 5/11. I never received a confirmation which I thought was weird but I did it multiple times (just to be safe) so I'm not sure what else to do. I'm in full panic mode and admissions hasn't gotten back to me yet and I can't lose this acceptance ... Please help!!!!! I
email the dean
email the dean about this situation? or was i supposed to send her the forms all along
I received confirmation emails for everything so I'd email Dina Nardi, she seems to respond pretty quickly to emails.
