Just got my Interview invite .. is anyone else having trouble accessing the portal? i keep getting the error message "you are not allowed to register yet"

Also this late in the cycle am I applying for the waitlist or is there still hope for the A?

i interviewed in early march and have pretty much been expecting a waitlist as the best possible outcome. has anyone been outright accepted since the initial feb 1st decisions?

Does anyone know if they prefer additional LORs through the aamc or directly to their email?

Bro I was so confused lol

 

[CorgiLoaf]

I'm hoping they'll release another set of As after April 15th like they did in 2018-2019. There'll definitely be another A wave in early May though.

[letsgoooooo]

[goodvibesonly12345]

At the financial aid call they said scholarships are rolling. especially as people turn them down

I interviewed the first week of March and received the “rolling admissions” email this week

 

[pacman480]

can someone explain the difference between these three emails lol?

 

[deleted1009115]

I haven’t actually gotten any of these emails, but I’ll do my best based on what I’ve seen here:

Rolling Admissions: After review, you have been placed in an “acceptable” category. Since the class is full, they’ll let you know if/when a spot opens up for you. This has been interpreted as a high-priority WL. If you get this email, there’s a strong chance you will be admitted in the coming weeks/months.

Waitlist: Regular WL

March Update: Your app has been reviewed, but they haven’t made a decision yet. Essentially a deferral.

Congrats! If you don’t mind me asking, what does the program entail?

It is a one year post-bacc program. Once you complete it, you will enroll into AECOM. Message me for more details!

 

[CorgiLoaf]

Yep, here are the details on AECOM's website:

AFAIK, it's tuition-free and they might also give you a stipend. Seems pretty rare so congrats @letsgoooooo!
