2020-2021 Toledo

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Called admissions, couldn't give me any timeframe, just told me that they're contacting evaluators daily to finish evaluations.
Pretty sure the evaluators are the sloths from Zootopia and they’ve been doing a deep analysis of the dank memes of this thread. Only reason to not have a class half full by mid June.
 
I called admissions yesterday and asked them to specifically check my file. Apparently it’s still under evaluation and there’s 3 steps still left. With how slow they’re working, I’m not expecting to hear back any time soon.
Well it seems that decisions will have to be made by July 10 if that is the commit to enroll deadline. Usually after that, they start taking people off the waitlist. So the absolute worst it can be is another 30 days. Here is to hoping it doesn’t take that long 🥃

Wait. How does waitlist movement usually start after CTE, especially with that late of a date?

Well it does not make sense to take people off the waitlist if they have not made decisions on all of their candidates yet. It makes sense that this would happen after all decisions have been made. All I was expressing was that it would seem that they would absolutely have to decide on all of their candidates before the commit to enroll deadline, so that there is ample time to consider the waitlist.
 
So I guess even if we get in we won’t be getting custom white coats then 😢

It's just gonna be a plain white T-shirt with "TOLEDO" written on it in Sharpie

So has no one here heard back in the last 3 days? It really feels like they’re accepting 4 people a week maximum at this rate
@dllsl7 mentioned that there were some As that went out on Wednesday, too...but they do have to pick up the pace or they won't have rendered decisions on everyone by the time classes start. Honestly, idk what they're thinking at this point.

Groupme now = 109 (last week was 93)
So I'm thinking there were around 25 As given this past week, with only 16 deciding to commit to UT
 
I'm wondering if I should send my 4th update letter.
I'm sure it wouldn't hurt. If I had anything worthwhile to update I would. I also assumed from what is written in the portal that after 3 weeks it wouldn't get sent to the evaluator anyways

LOL I’ve sent like six this year. But yeah I just sent one a week and a half ago (with spring grades so it was “significant”) but also mainly saying I need to know soon otherwise I have to CTE at my other school.

The portal message I interpreted as your fast evaluators may not see but the slow ones will.
 
Holy crap, what a day! Congrats to everyone who got the A yesterday!!!

Still sitting here waiting for a decision; I interviewed April 13th. I think I must have the slow people as well 😭

I really want to send an update but all I have is "I started a gap year job that I will run away from if you let me in" which is prooooobs not what they want to see, lol. (The job knows my situation and they're cool with it.)

That’s a silver lining at least; hopefully you’ll hear back soon.
 
I've been hearing the word "soon" for about 6 weeks now. No flame, just an observation.
Yeah I didn’t hear back until 2 1/2 months after my interview. Still got the invites to webinars after though. Hopefully you’ll get some good news soon as well, either from Toledo or another school.
 
Congrats!!!!
I've been following this thread just to congratulate you when you get in! (I'm here for the memes also lol). Your enthusiasm for this school really stands out!
GOT. THE. A!!!!!

Email came in at 8:36 🙂 🙂 🙂

Edit:
Interviewed 4/13, IS, no ties to Toledo, 513, GPA is not useful because I'm extremely nontrad.
I'm so excited!!! My undergrad advisor told me that I wasn't "med school material". I can't believe t
