Forgot to post but I withdrew my acceptance on 4/28 (placed in EL though) hopefully there is movement on the alternate list!!

Is there a difference between being placed on the "waitlist" vs "alternate list"?
No
First time poster. OOS accepted to the EL campus, however I'm on the WL at my top two schools! I would like to stay on the west coast for family and support, but I am open to whatever the universe has in store for me.

Were you originally on the waitlist?

I heard that Michigan state has not reached into their alternate list yet.
[/QUOTE]
Where you hear that from?
 
It has been eerily quiet so far. Anyone have any news?

Is there anyone studying for MCAT while waiting one or more Waitlists?

I want to know the feeling because I am at that position. It kinda of diffrent feeling. I keep checking my email or SDN in the middle of reading practice passages.

I scheduled another MCAT and started to study for it.. it’s a really crappy feeling, but it keeps my mind off emails and SDN haha

Exactly! I’m on 2 waitlists and I feel the same way. It would’ve been easier to just get the R.

I’m down to only one WL here (MSU), also studying for an mcat retake, but honestly I would be so happy to hear I got off the WL, instead of just being outright rejected. It would be nice to hear before my scheduled date, but honestly I’ll take the acceptance at any point up to the start of the semester. The application/interviewing cycle is a really expensive/exhausting thing to have to endure again. In any case wishing all the best for us all!

This wait is killing me! No one has heard anything or has insider information? Because it's astounding that no one has heard anything.

I talked to admissions about a week ago and they said that they did not need to reach into the alternate list yet.

Does that mean that no one withdrew their acceptance? That can't be right.
 
A few people definitely withdrew. They probably offered more spots than available and are hoping that people rescind their acceptance.

It means that they over accept and there hasn’t been enough that have withdrawn in order to get to the alternate list.
 
I was waitlisted in January and I just got the acceptance call from Dr.Maurer!! ☺️ I hope you all hear something soon as well!

I wonder if one of us should ask if the class is full or anticipate more movement :(
I sent an email two weeks ago and they weren’t pulling from the alternate list and now they started. It might be worth a shot.
 
I withdrew my acceptance from here yesterday! I hope it goes to one of you. Good luck ❤️

Hi guys! I got the acceptance call May 15 and after putting some crazy thought into it, I accepted my offer today! I was wondering if there was any way someone could update me on the information given as of now in regard to COVID-19 updates. Also, for the facebook group (I know the link has been posted somewhere here) can I be added by anyone and then get approved or do I need to wait for administration to add me? I need to start looking for a roommate ASAP (I'm from Miami lol can't wait for the snowstorms) and I feel the facebook group tool is an great way to start meeting other fellow classmates.

Thank you so much! I am very excited for this crazy adventure we are about to embark in!

Wondering if anyone has gotten off the GR campus placement waitlist since we got the ranked list? I know it’s a small sample size but just trying to see if anything has happened since people have dropped their A’s
 
For those accepted, does anyone know if they accept electronic PDF transcripts? If so, to what email address?

Is there a ranked waitlist now for people waitlisted to the school in general or is the ranked list for site placement? I'm currently waitlisted but did not get anything about a ranked list.
