I’m sure there’s a GREAT reason behind this! For the greater good and practicality, like everything else medical schools do, MUST be a valid 1000 IQ reason us plebeian applicants can’t fathom! More reason to trust the process and never question anything institutions do behind closed doors! /s

Kaiser adcoms deciding when to press the button that sends the mass email to everyone.
While this image is a fitting representation of the situation, I can’t unsee it either.

Has anyone tried reaching out to admissions to see what the new timeline is for release of decisions? I am curious if anyone can get a hold of them. I have been unable to....

Waitlisted as well. It seems like they anticipate using the waitlist, since they mentioned an upcoming meeting to evaluate all waitlisted applicants. Though this can just be standard protocol.
Interviewed November

For those of y'all WLed, do you know if it's a ranked WL?
Also put on the WL, was expecting an R. Interviewed in Nov.
Waitlist, not ranked it seems like based on the wording of the email. they will reconvene to discuss the WL applicants once more
I haven’t heard anything either... not sure what to think of it but gotta wait another day
Waitlist, interviewed in Nov.

Are the rest of us getting Rs then
Hopefully not. They gave out R’s yesterday and then WL’s today. Not sure what the methodology is but it’s hard to say what the rest of us are gonna get

I'd joke that tomorrow is the day for As but I wouldn't want to get your hopes unnecessarily lol

I think currently it is not ranked, but they will have a meeting, which may end up being a ranking meeting. I believe all waitlist are "ranked" in one way or another, either a hard ranking or a ranking based on subcriteria each applicant is sorted into ("Alright so the 528 pianist chose to go to Harvard, accept the 526 pianist at once!").

is it just me or does it look like there's wayyyy more WL's going out than R's?
well its SDN sampling bias at work I'd say, not enough data to make any significant conclusion

It can be possible that they waitlist a majority of interviewees, especially since this is their first class.
D

Imo maybe even 75%? LOL They interviewed much over 1000 applicants, closer to 1400. If 60 in the FB group, assuming they accepted 80 actual, that still leaves vast majority. Even if 1 SDN rejection = 25 IRL, that still leaves a huge amount of applicants.

The slow trickle of emails is painful

deleted688779
Keeping up with their track record of being on time, the 32nd.
In seriousness, it was probably left vague intentionally because they probably don’t know.
I got waitlisted just now, 18:55 PDT. Interview on Feb 13th.
check your portals, there is a new tab called admissions decisions that answers a lot of questions mentioned earlier tonight
D
deleted976595
No email or tab here
Do we have to accept as wait-listed and send them an email? Also, what does "begun an orientation program at another medical school" mean? Which school has orientation before July 1st?
- What happens if I am holding another acceptance?
- If a candidate has begun an orientation program at another medical school, an offer of admission cannot be made.
- How do I accept the offer?
- To accept/decline the offer, please email [email protected].
- Candidates on the waitlist list will be notified no later than July 1st if an offer is not likely.

I almost feel like they waitlisted everyone because they were too busy to make a decision right now
Holy frick, yes. Although I'm mentally preparing myself and expecting the worst-case scenario.
