If my math is right, since October only 4 people posted here that they had Pre-matched
(sure there were probably others who Pre-matched too, but didn't post here).

I guess it's fair to assume then that UTRGV will be match-heavy this time around.
@wysdoc would you agree ?

I had my interview Saturday. Today, I received an email to join the Facebook group foe Class of 2025. However, I have not been accepted. Does everyone who is interviewed receive an invitation to join the Facebook group? Thank you and good luck!

Should OOS students expect an update on that date from here as well?

I would guess if they are going to offer you admission, they might notify around then. You could be just left on hold as well. Good luck

funny! wouldn't be a bad idea tbh. I was just wondering tho.

But to answer your question, I haven't checked since I submitted. Also probably because I got a II from them so I may be a bit biased towards not worrying about checking the view count.

I just checked and I have 18 views!! Last time I checked it was at 2. I'm about to monetize too!

Well the reason I was asking was because mine is unlisted so basically only utrgv can see it & I got a view right before my ii. Wondering if they’ll look at it again before match day.
 
I'm OOS and interviewed here in early December. I haven't heard back from them since the interview but just judging from here, it doesn't look like they've sent any pre-match offers or anything to students since my interview. Since I'm not in the match, do you think it would be okay to email them to just check on my status?
 
I matched this morning and just got an acceptance email from UTRGV!!! I hope other people post, I’d love to know who else will be starting with me in July☺️ to anyone who didn’t match I hope you will be gentle with yourselves and keep on trying! this was my second round so I wish you all the best!!

Thanks! Anyone else? Seems like not much action with UTRGV match
 
Hi, it does not seem like anyone matched here or willing to come forward haha! A few questions for me: Will this school send out an email if we are on the waitlist this year and if so when? Also is there a lot of movement on that so waitlist? And finally I’ve seen letters of interest written in past thread for this school and was wondering is that something that changes year by year or does this school always accept these letters! Thank you!

has anyone spoken to admissions post-match day?
Click to expand...
I did. I spoke with them yesterday to see how I could better myself as an applicant. They said they would be sending correspondence in the next few weeks.
My question is when do you have to make a decision about which school you are going to attend?

Heyy, first time poster here =] - I matched to this school on match day! I have a quick question: I received the congratulations email and contingencies form for matriculation that is due at my earliest convenience (truly due by June 1st) and was wondering if anyone knew if this form simply acknowledges the things I have to complete before matriculation or if it is essentially an agreement (binding?) for matriculation between the school and I? It seems more like the former, but just want a little clarification - thanks!

Texans can & should start doing the paperwork for matriculation at their Match school.
You are still eligible to move over to another school which offers you a place from their Wait List, until May 15th.
Congratulations on matching -

anyone know how many spots on WL there is?

I assumed whoever didn't match gets placed automatically? However, idk how many people that is
Check out this thread from 2018-19 cycle. Talks about the waitlist movement and said everyone gets the same email "favorable position".

Feeling real defeated. This was my number one choice and I didn't match. Betty says that if you don't match you're most likely on the waitlist. Does anyone know how many people got off the waitlist last year? I know that over half did the first/second years but I heard that there isn't as much...

Waitlist as well w “Favorable position” but I mean if everyone gets waitlisted, and they had over 7000 applicants, that doesn’t seem so favorable? Do some students get R’s? They said about 50% enter from waitlist, so that leaves 25 of us lucky souls #goodluckall

WL can only go to those who interviewed : a number <<<<7000.
But yeah, more waiting.

You also need to understand that although they had 7,000 applicants not everyone was interviewed. They interviewed roughly 300 students (going based off of the FB page for students that were interviewed/ ED accepted).

and of those 300, X number of students were accepted, those remaining are on the waitlist. From past threads, there seems to be a lot of waitlist movement.

I spoke with a first year who said last year only 2 people got off the waitlist.

This is from the 2018/19 cycle, just trying to be optimistic.
 
just wanted to help provide info, I don’t think everyone who interviewed gets on the WL as I interviewed and didn’t get on it, so maybe it’s selective to those who ranked it higher than a school that they matched to or there’s another criteria they’ve for their WL
