For a LOI, did you guys simply upload your letter to your portal, or did you also email the admissions committee?
I have only uploaded everything via the portal and not emailed admissions.
Also wondering. I was rejected from REMP but was told I was "still in consideration" for regular MD. not sure what that means.
Historically it seems this way. However, this cycle seems to be unpredictable. Especially since 2 weeks ago, most ppl thought that they were rejected around the 15th but then got the second wave of WL msg like myself. I would caution against withdrawing your app prematurely since time and money was invested. Hopefully u have an Acceptance already, but if not prior planning for this upcoming cycle will allow for better chances
Yes you have to send all transcripts directly to IU, they do not transfer over from AMCAS.
I was in-state, interviewed in November and was placed on the alternate list on Friday. I am not sure what to think.
I’m not sure about the first part of your question but IU had matched student a pretty well outside of the Midwest
Nobody knows. It was April, then early May. Still no notification of placement yet unless you are an ED or MSTP.
Looking at past threads, It appears they still roughly stick the the 15th to announce alternate list acceptances. The 15th this month is on a Saturday, so we might not hear anything until the 17th.
Most accepted students have no idea what campus they are assigned to yet. I can imagine a lot of people will withdraw when campus assignments are sent out and they don’t get their top choice. Looking at past threads it seems like waitlist acceptances go out after campus assignment , so that’s when I would expect the most movement. They’ve been vague about when campus assignment will go out, but it will honestly be any day now (last year it was may 4th).
But if everyone had to narrow down their acceptances to 1 school on April 30th, then how is it that someone can drop their acceptance at IU and decide to go to another school after ?
Really the AMCAS guidelines are suggestions, it depends more on the individual school guidelines. Some schools do not require an applicant to commit to enroll until June/July. Even the AAMC guidelines say applicants can still hold multiple acceptances if they are waiting on financial aid or other pertinent information from the medical schools... in this case where the applicant will live for the next 2-4 years.
April 30th is really a courtesy deadline i think. IUSM gives roughly until middle of July to commit to enroll. In a perfect world IU would have released campus decisions prior to April 30th so that people can make their final choices in a timely manner but unfortunately that’s not the case :/
Where did you place and r you going
Look up "IUSM Class of 2025" on Facebook, and there are links to the classwide groupme and the individual campus groupme's!
I got my first choice Evansville and yes but I'm a special case since I'm a deferral.
what do you mean you're a deferral? also, congrats!!!
I think that means they were accepted last cycle and the elected to begin school this august instead of back in 2020
Yes, all the accepted students got their campus decisions at the same time
4 weeks but that is rumored to change since p/f is around the corner.
Congrats! Call or email?
Congrats! Did you send a LOI?
We have to reply to the acceptance offer within 7 days so it could be rolling
Me too
me too. did your letter say that “your record does not make it possible for us to include you”
