2020-2021 Wayne State

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Just got off the waitlist tonight at 7:56! Interviewed near the end of October, waitlisted in the middle of November. I'm an IS non-trad reapp with a pretty high MCAT and average GPA. So excited to join all of you fine people at Wayne State! For those who have been accepted, what should I be doing in terms of financial aid? How is everyone figuring out living arrangements?
Congrats on the A! Check the FB group for living arrangements, there's an excel sheet there you can put info and connect with others. There should be a class GroupMe coming soon so make sure you have the app downloaded.

For financial aid, I know they have us meeting with advisors one-on-one prior to matriculation so you should get an email about that along with any potential scholarships soon.

Facebook group? Can you share that link?

Still havent got any post interview decisions. No R no Waitlist. Today is my 4th week since my interview. Should I contact admissions?
they said 4-6 weeks. for several people on this thread, it took them months to hear back. so I would wait another week and then contact but it's up to u

Oh ok.. at the closing session they said 3-4 weeks so I thought I would get it faster. And it seems that everyone interviewed around about same time got their decisions out.. I think I just will wait and see. Thanks for replying back
 
yeah my decision took about a month as well, with some people who interviewed after me getting decisions before. it's pretty randomized
 
theyve been releasing on random days, so not totally sure :/ but i think they might be meeting today (i might be wrong tho) so it can really be anything as soon as tomorrow !
I love how almost every day we're like 'ok it's so random but it's probably gonna be today i can feel it' 😂😂

LOLLL it’s just a way to ✨keep us going✨
🎵 WAITLISTED SO HARD MY ACCEPTANCE CANT FIND ME, 🎶

but in honesty checking last year's thread there were acceptances around ~March 20th and then the most movement ~May 5th onward.
 
Anyone see the Choose Your Medical School tool for Wayne? Not sure if they haven't put in recent acceptances yet.
I was accepted on 2/10 and I see Wayne on my CYMS tool. Make sure you confirm your acceptance on Wayne's portal if you haven't done so!
 
Huh. I accepted my offer the day I got it. Weird...maybe I need to call AMCAS.
Ah I mean they may not have gotten to you yet but I wager it'll show up soon enough. Remember you don't need to rush to select PTE asap or anything.
 
First off, best of luck to everyone still waiting to hear!

Secondly, does anyone know if we have to create a Wayne email? I would love to talk to someone who has been admitted/someone who already attends on everything we should expect and have to complete post-acceptance. Thanks in advance!
 
Good luck to the 40 EDP applicants who receive their answer (theoretically) tomorrow. We're rooting for you 🙂
Is there a specific spot with stats in terms of how many EDP applicants there were/ how many of them got an interview? Or was 40 just based off the admissions tracker on their website?

Wayne state has an admissions tracker that they use throughout the cycle. At the time, only EDP IIs were sent out and was 40 at the time.
 
guysss, I heard that Wayne tends to fill their class by feb (accept ~350 people) then wait til late march/april for the waitlist to move 🥲 idk how true this is but assuming this may be the trend, we probably shouldnt worry everyday now haha
I think it's likely they're a bit behind because of covid.. so perhaps something could happen in the next few weeks?

wait but doesn't most WL movement happen during March or is it later?

i heard the same! yeah i think the majority of WL movement won't be till the end. i wonder what the post A rate will be this year compared to past years because of the increased IIs

They may be behind since a lot of schools are, but last year Wayne stopped updating their tracker after feb (~350 acceptances), and I heard they stayed silent til late march. But yea, Wayne is super random so they may do things differently this year

I feel like Wayne expects their yield to be lower this year because they purposely sent more IIs, right? Ofc we wouldnt know anything til April but hopefully the waitlist movement is greater 🙂

There might be more to follow tomorrow/in the upcoming days then! That means they prob did meet on Thursday
I think they’re meeting this week (4th Thursday) and these As are from the 52 on the tracker (so they released them randomly)
 
I saw that Wayne is doing interviews into February. If I haven't gotten an interview at this point, should I just be expecting an R?
