Maybe, but I really doubt it - it would be awkward emailing them to ask, because it would show that you're hoping to go to another school or not fully committed to SB, ya know? (even though I fully believe FA is a good reason to pick one school over another, idk if admissions feels the same)
I would suggest you get that in writing before you act on it.
Amen
Haven't seen HPWL since early january/december. Maybe they combined the two (W and HPWL) midway through the cycle? It'd be unlikely that there wouldn't be any HPWL applicants over 3 months of interviews
don't be that guy, dawg
Email admissios
Thanks!Just emailed. Hope it goes to you
Yes you can apply for 2nd year
There IS HPWL and reg WL and ppl were told which one they were placed in via email. However, we won't know any specifics.
So I'm guessing you PTE'd to Stony?
Ok so if my email doesn't say the words high priority specifically then I am on regular waitlist?
Correct
According to the current MS1s, curriculum is P/F until after spring break of your first year. Anatomy, biochem, PHD and the other course are all P/F.
Yup. Stony brook is astoundingly inactive compared to a lot of other schools right now. I hope everyone there is doing okay.
This thread has been more active than in previous year. But stony Brook is definitely dealing with a lot of COVID 19 patients and things are closed rn
in the student Q&A they said weekend rotations weren't common (but could happen) and most of them work with your normal schedule during the week
There’s a huge amount of current students on it.
Any waitlist so far?
How many?
Replied to you but it got deleted. Currently 165 on the Facebook page - I would estimate about 1/2 new students, half old. Means lots of spots of people who haven't joined yet or haven't committed, etc. SB has gotten more competitive in the last few years and the amount coming off the waitlist decreasing, but anecdotally I think most movement for my class was around May 8-15th. The school admin has been pretty on top of things this year but the COVID thing is hitting them hard as well; I wouldn't be surprised if things were delayed. I know some classmates who got of the waitlist a couple years ago in June though
Thank you

Seems like 30-40 current students, 120 new ones
Damn that's a lot of new students, class size is around 136 right?
I think so. I was expecting a larger drop especially after the 4/30 deadline.
Oh I haven't scanned it that closely; just joined today. Our class was the biggest entering class at 134 (now I think we're at 138 or something) - other classes around us about 120-130. So not sure how much movement there will be, but definitely know in previous years there have been some off the waitlist in June.
