Ok so does the new application get withdrawn the moment you accept the previous cycle’s acceptance?

Get help with your application
Use all the free resources available to you from SDN: articles, guides, expert advising, forums discussions, and school research.
If you get accepted off the waitlist, you withdraw your amcas from consideration. Don't worry about that. If you get in you go ****ing party with your friends and family.
You right
Way too early to start overthinking something haha Advertisement - Members don't see this ad

I'm also gearing up to reapply, but there's also so much time between now and the AMCAS launch. I'd put most of your stuff together and just be ready for when it opens May 31st since most waitlist movement should/seems to happen before then.

Agreed. Also, I hate to be a Debby Downer but also keep in mind that a lot of schools' (I also think EVMS falls into this boat) CTE deadlines aren't until July, meaning that waitlist movement could plausibly happen during the new application cycle --> more reasons to have everything ready to go and submitted
Exactly! EVMS CTE's 7/18.
I believe AMCAS transmission date is pushed back too (July 10th I think), so might work out for this cycle 🙂

I’m familiar with the CTE date but what is the AMCAS transmissions date and it’s significance? Sorry if it is a dumb question.
More important for those planning to reapply. Because apps don’t get transmitted as early, you might be able to save money as secondaries won’t roll in until after July 10th. If I were reapplying, I’d probably wait until after the CTE date before submitting secondaries to avoid giving these schools more money. That’s just me though, I’m sure others are going to jump right in, but I don’t have that luxury. (First gen student who basically blew my savings on this app cycle, no support from family).
Just got email for alternate list. Interviewed 3/20 and OOS. Who do you email to ask about your position on the WL? Do you just reply to that email?

To my understanding, there is some movement; but based on past threads, it tends to be top tier in general. But also keep in mind the waitlist is based on demographic matching so who knows XD
OOS middle tier actually has a pretty good shot in getting off the waitlist since it moves so much more than IS waitlist

Wait, wasn't last date of interviews March 27th?
Yeah they were.

No, your good! I want the waitlist to move as badly as you do XD
same haha
I literally just sent them an update letter 5 minutes before that was sent and thought it was a personal email because I messed up or something. Especially with the bold parts of the email! Phew! Glad it wasn't just me!

Since they want it all official, I'm guessing they might use it for something. I'll probably send one by the end of tomorrow. LOI that is.
Does EVMS reject students post-interview? Thought I saw somewhere that you’re either accepted or

Yes, my little brother got rejected post II here this cycle. Granted he said he interviewed VERY poorly due to lack of sleep. So it does happen but it’s possible they only reject post II if you completely bomb the interview.

Rejections do happen and bottom third positions exist; keep in mind that sdn is a tiiiiinnnnyyyy subset of those who interviewed. Also not sure if people were comfortable enough to admit to strangers that they got rejected or placed in bottom third.

I got the alternate email yesterday morning, but got a phone call telling me I got in a few hours later. Interviewed 3/27. Also got the email about updates and such after I got the phone call.
That is awesome!

Thanks! I was really confused when I got the phone call. They said they were just calling to see if I had any questions about EVMS, and I said no I'm just hoping to get in. Then they were like well your hopes have come true.
Thats great! IS or OS? etc?

Just got the official acceptance email
Does anyone know how big the waitlist is per tier or overall? From that post-II google spreadsheet, OOS interviewed applicants last year had around a 70% chance of getting in. Idk how useful it is to speculate what my chances are to get off the middle tier waitlist, but just trying to find some light at the end of the tunnel since I'm currently on two waitlists. Thanks in advance for anyone who has this info.
there is most definitely light for us OOS folks. I believe there are approximately 100 per tier. This number has been thrown around in last years thread as well.
If I get in I will definitely take you up on that offer. Even with all this time on my hands I can still only make ramen.

I snooped a little, LM 76. Assuming OOS. It’s moving! Can’t wait till next week for more 🙂
hoping everyone in the West is surviving this heatwave!
Not sure of a specific amount, but I’d like to think we have a good amount after this month’s deadline for accepted people to narrow school options.
