what are y’all’s interest levels in Boonshoft compared to other schools/offers?
This is "the one" for me. I'll drop everything if they accept me... It was one of those "holy cow, we are made for each other" kind of interview days. Lol

Hi everyone. Waitlist rankings I believe got sent today. I got mine. Top third. Anyone know if letter of intents make a difference? How far into the waitlist do they usually move through and if so how soon!?! The whole anticipation of a yes or no is crazy! Best of luck everyone!

Does anyone know approximately how many people are on the waitlist?
 
Does anyone have any news/contacted the office to see if there has been any movement?
I doubt there will be until May 1st when people have to give acceptances. But as someone on the bottom third I find it highly unlikely it'll go there. But ya never know. Last years thread indicated they didnt get pass the middle
 
To those accepted, Has anyone received a financial aid package yet?

No, they said they will start giving FA packages beginning of April and scholarship awards will be given near the end of April.
 
95% sure I’ll be at BSOM next year! Can any current students share their thoughts on a tablet for note taking? Currently have everything Apple, but I’ve heard strong preference for surface pro at other schools.

Has anyone been able to contact to ask if there has been any movement or number of people on the list?
I think true movement will occur after April 30th as people who have multiple acceptances will have to choose one and give up the others.

Just to update you guys: I received my financial aid award on April 1st. Only the loans part was given. They said scholarships will be sent from now-onwards until the end of July.

Does anyone recall if there’s a deposit that needs to be paid by a certain date for accepted students?
 
Has anyone received a scholarship yet? Or know anything about the scholarships that are offered? For example, are they mostly merit-based, need-based, for minorities, first-gen, preference given based on where you live, etc.?

I feel like I am just as nervous waiting to hear about scholarships as I was waiting for an acceptance (lol because both seem/seemed just as impossible but the desperate hope is/was real!!)

I never got any information regarding that whatsoever, but I guess I could have missed something?
 
Hi everyone, just withdrew my acceptance here. Hoping it goes to one of you guys! Good luck

I don't know the exact details, but on my interview day, I was told that scholarships are mostly need-based. The average scholarship for a first year is $1,500, according to Ms. Feichtner.

Nope, no deposit was asked to be paid for accepting your seat. We just had to fill and return the Docusign document which was sent to accepted students through email.
 
Withdrew my acceptance today (accepted back in January). I hope it goes to one of you on the WL!

I'm guessing there will be more dropped after may 1st? I'm in the bottom third so I think my chances of getting in are slim and would only happen near the absolute end of the cycle near late June / early July
 
I withdrew my acceptance today. Hopefully, someone lucky receives it! Good luck, everyone!

How many people are selected for the final class?
I think I remember it was around 120 or so from the MSAR. But, the list movement can sometimes go deep. My friend was in the bottom two thirds two cycles ago and got in so I think it varies year to year.
 
121 students on portal right now. Down from 128 yesterday.

If there's anybody else in the hard position of deciding between schools today, feel free to DM me. Struggling with the same myself and would love to have someone else to talk through it with.

what does that mean again (for the waitlist)? Sorry haven’t been following the thread
It means two ppl will be taken off the waitlist to fill the class of 120. Now this is only at the moment. Far more seats will open up soon.
