2020-2021 Wright State (Boonshoft)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
do you think it would be frowned upon to ask what part of the third you are in? I am in the middle third and saw that in previous years they go into the middle third and even the bottom third so wanted to know what part of it I am in
 
Has anyone heard of any Second look activities planned?
also wondering this. searched up WSU boonshoft second look and last year it was 24-25th april. haven't gotten any emails recently from them though.

anyone receive scholarship info yet?

I haven't as of yet (referring to scholarship info)
 
I am currently on the waitlist here but just got an email from the office of financial aid talking about my FAFSA and how I am “a new student at Wright State..”. Is this just a generic email saying they received my FAFSA??
 
I got a merit scholarship offer exactly a week ago. I forgot to post about it, though

Congrats! how were you notified of this? (terrified I'm missing something in the wright state email that i don't check regularly)

They emailed my wright state email but also CCed the email I used for my AAMC application
 
Does Wright St accept updates/letters of interest?
I’m assuming you’re on the WL? In the waitlist email, it says sending letters will not change your numerical score/ranking so you could send it but it wouldn’t necessarily help. If you’re waiting to receive an II, I would confirm if they are still conducting interviews because if not, once again, a letter wouldn’t necessarily help.
 
Has anyone seen any waitlist movement? I know we shouldn't expect much of anything until April 15th and May 1st. Or has the number of accepted students in the accepted students portal changed?

accepted students, we can start tracking these changes through BAMS! last year on SDN, they did something similar. just make sure to update every week with the number change.

April 7th: 170 students (minus administrators)
 
Any WL movement ? And does anyone know how many ppl are on there WL?
 
April 7th: 170 students (minus administrators)
April 14th: 167 students


@beautymd22 - waitlist movement typically starts occurring after the PTE/CTE deadlines approach
ive been seeing WL movement start already for other schools due to aamc traffic dates approaching. Tommorow, April 15th is the day that applicants drop multiple MD acceptances down to 3 and then April 30th is when its drop to 1. I just expected BSOM to have started already but well see
 
are all accepted students planning to live in ashton brooke? or are some ppl going to look at other places??
 
I think their class has 130 seats per their waitlist email... “At this time, all 130 available places in our entering class have been accepted and confirmed.”
So they're done with this year? anyone not offered at this point is declined?

No that is not the case. Bc the next sentence reads “Your name has been placed on our waitlist for consideration if any openings occur prior to the beginning of classes on July 19, 2020”. confirmed doesn’t necessarily mean finalized CTE they prob just paid the deposit fee to secure there spot

Apologies in advance for being a bit ignorant about this whole process 🙂 What does this mean exactly?

Those numbers are showing how students who were offered a seat in BSOM's class are withdrawing after choosing other schools. It's of interest to people on the waitlist because (in theory) when enough accepted students decline, the school starts to accept students off of the waitlists. However, schools purposefully accept way more students than they plan to enroll in anticipation of this. I think BSOM is aiming for a class of 130 so basically according to that portal at least 12 more accepted students need to decline before they go to the waitlist.

I'm surprised that the # is still the same... my first hunch was that maybe WSUBSOM doesn't update students from the portal ASAP but I looked at last year's threads, and they seemed to update every day... I'm not sure why the # of accepted students right now is so LARGE compared to last year. Wishing you all luck for WL movement

Could just be they won’t update on the weekend.
 
I'll update daily now at 10 am EST since hopefully WL movement should be starting soon:

I’m starting to think they just haven’t updated the portal in a while! Someone said they withdrew and the number of students still stayed the same. Hopefully this means that there is still the possibility of movement🙂 also thank you for doing this @girlydoctor
