Probably means they may rush the current grad class through to have them help w cases until residency starts.
Partly that and partly I meant we finished up our physiology course this weekend and haven't been given any guidance on what's the plan for our last class of first year. We are starting our spring break now and really don't know what the last 2 months of the year is gonna hold for us.

Those that are accepted, how do we access our empower id to complete the institutional aid application?
Also have this Q. I got an email about two hours after the initial acceptance from FA saying another email with that login info should be sent soon. Probably will be sent Monday I assume? If not I will probably call tomorrow evening!
There is! Check ur app portal or just look it up on FB
Update: Just got the Empower ID Email!
Happy to do so - current m3
current M1 on "spring break" (whatever that means nowadays) - also happy to answer what I can.

To give hope to those Feb interviewers, I got the A on 3/28, interviewed 2/12. I expect there's gonna be lots of waitlist movement so if you haven't gotten the A yet, hang in there!
Just withdrew! Good luck everyone!
Is there any/much merit aid here? Or is it all need-based?

Gimme 5$ and the spot is yours
First-time poster long time follower! I never posted on this before, but I decided that this was the best forum to air my concern.
After a long debate, I will likely be withdrawing. I was so excited to go to Ichan, but I have a friend, who is starting her PhD at another top NYC institution. She told me that the school notified them that they are almost certain that classes will not resume in the fall in-person. Unfortunately, it does not look like that school has notified their accepted medical students, with the obvious reason being that they do not want to lose all of their students before April 30th. If one NYC school has made this announcement they are all bound to follow, but the other medical schools are likely delaying.
I don't feel comfortable planning to move to NYC and endlessly guessing when my medical education can begin in-person. My other choice might also not begin at the expected start date, but I feel much more confident that in-person classes can resume faster than if I went to school in the center of the epidemic where the timeline is significantly extended and the risk of a second wave is high.
Wishing everyone the best and a rapid end to this pandemic!

Any WL movement today?
Just gonna chime in since everyone seems to be unsure of what's going on. Don't know how much it means because people can always join late but it does seem like it's moving for those who are worried - I'm in the 2024 facebook group and people are still actively joining it. Last year the waitlist moved in bursts in the beginning but it did move! People are definitely still getting in, it's just a waiting game still. (which really does suck and I remember how awful the whole process was, but fingers crossed for all of you)

still on the WL train : ) For those accepted, has any announcement been made as far as an online start in August?
We received an email yesterday that said classes and move in will start on time. Small groups will be in person and some classes will be online.

Considering that NYC is getting hit the hardest by COVID, I'm going to give them all the time they need to figure their class out... must just be super busy treating patients
I don't know about MD, so I apologize if this info is useless to you haha but the MSTP waitlist is completely unranked
