I was also just notified that I was placed in the "High Priority Alternate" category. Anyone have thoughts about chances for those who wind up in this category?

Competitive Hold 🙁
What does this mean for me? Says I'll be placed on the high priority alternate category in late winter. Does that mean I'm screwed cause people are being added to the high priority list already?

From someone on the 2018-19 thread: "I think competitive hold automatically turns into the HPWL. I read on forums from the past two cycles that "competitive hold" still has a 50/50 shot of getting in but the regular waitlist doesn't get a lot of movement. Not entirely sure though."

Just got the acceptance call this morning! Interviewed second week of November Lol I think you meant to post that in the NJMS thread.

Sorry, actually I was placed in "competitive hold" too. Not sure if anyone goes straight to HPWL.

Oh thank you so much for clarifying that! I'm really hoping people don't go straight to HPWL because that might be bad news haha
I also got the competitive hold email, and because it said everyone in the group will be placed on HPWL "after the admissions season is complete in late winter," I think that implies that they don't start the HPWL until interviews are over. Basically, I think competitive hold and HPWL are synonymous but they just haven't officially started the waitlist yet. Just my initial reaction though - could definitely be wrong!

not sure, but 2018-2019 cycle seemed to have a good amount of movement from HPWL in may-june
I‘m not sure what changed last year but there was almost no movement. No way to really know if COVID played a role. Maybe that is why their language is noncommittal this year in terms of HPAL getting a spot.
also haven't received an email yet.

If I get a new letter of Rec from work, should I send that directly to Dean Copeland or submit it through my HPO office & AAMCAS?
I picked up the initial acceptance phone call and still haven’t gotten the official letter so we’re on the same boat!

PSA to check your applicant portal - I didn't get an acceptance email, but I can see the admissions decision tab with my official acceptance letter!! Also under my communication status it says that an email sent earlier today, but I don't see it in my inbox/junk/spam.
any hope left for ppl complete end of aug and still no II? 🙁
same :/ complete 8/28 and IS

I'm a current student (in-state) and I think I've paid about the same amount each year (with the expected minor adjustments per year). Feel free to DM me if you have questions!
Has anyone gotten II recently?

Were there many RWJMS IIs sent out last cycle from Jan-March? I haven't checked last year's thread.
So is like.....now the best time for a letter of interest/update letter?

yeah I'm 99% sure they do it in two batches!! guessing they haven't sent out any IIs yet for the remainder of the cycle since they only just released decisions for the first batch!
Oh ****, we all hoping to be a part of that second decision batch huh?
Congrats! Nice New Years present. May I ask what the available interview dates look like at this point? Thx!
