2020-2021 California Northstate

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
just received an acceptance email ! I wanted to let you all know since it's been so quiet on here. I had received an email a couple of days ago from "myrecordtracker" asking me to fill out immunization documents for CNSU Medical Fall 2021 which I thought was strange because that was the first that I had heard from them post interview (I interviewed feb 5th) but I guess if you received the same email then that's a good sign! good luck to everyone :)

As someone who has friends at CNU College of medicine, I would not worry if I was you. I would take the other out-of-state school. CNUCOM is still awaiting LCME accreditation, has 3-4 pending citations and lawsuits, and multiple gridlocks and tension with the surrounding city.

Do you mind sharing what the citations and lawsuits are for?

Here are four issues I was able to find that occurred within the last few years

1) CNUCOM is being sued in a class-action lawsuit by their own BS/MD students after rejecting/waitlisting students who met the requirements: https://www.bizjournals.com/sacrame...ifornia-northstate-students-allege-fraud.html

2) Two female professors sued the school for apparent defamation, harassment, lack of medical/family leave, and unlawful termination: California Northstate Univ. sued by terminated women employees for alleged violation of family leave, harassment, defamation

3) CNUCOM was sued for financial fraud and apparently received their initial accreditation through a faulty loan: Lawsuit filed against California Northstate University offers glimpse into for-profit school’s finances

4) CNUCOM was cited by the State of California for offering fraud programs to undergraduate students who matriculated into their medical school: https://stonelakeneighbors.com/cnu-fined-by-state-of-ca
 
For you WL folks, have you received any communication since notification of being waitlisted?
 
Just got an II for the end of May, I didn't know MD schools were even still interviewing lol. Complete 7/24

Based on last cycle, it looks like people started getting off of the waitlist in mid-may, so I'm trying not to think about it much until then... I wonder if it'll be delayed this year cause of covid. I want to get off of this waitlist so badly...

Congrats!!! Can I ask when you interviewed? Curious if any May interviewers have heard back yet...
 
This school hasn’t even sent me a pre II-R. I was accepted here 2 years ago but had to withdraw- sorta funny but sorta sad lol

Has there been any waitlist movement?
Unlikely, but I predict there will be more movement by Friday or early next week, because the acceptances that rolled out must be replied to by end of the week, which will save time for another cycle of admissions. Hope that provides some spirit, best of luck!

I didnt hear back for a really long time, I would recommend emailing admissions and asking them whats good.
 
I emailed after their CTE date, and my status is "interview complete, under review" :/
if it has been more than 8 weeks, i would email them again , Kindly, and ask them for a final decision.
