Take this to mean what you will, but the FB group has shrank a bit and, discounting for current students and staff, is approximately 70 strong.

Yes, but I’m not sure about next step… need to look into how I’m going to pay for my tuition 😓

For those wondering, FB group has only slightly increased to about 65 (excluding current students/admin). Plenty of waitlist movement to come I imagine.

Late post, but I got the A off the WL on Tuesday morning! OOS, interviewed in September and waitlisted in April with dead silence in between. This is my first MD acceptance after 2 cycles😭 Applying is a brutal process, so congratulations to you all on the sheer determination it takes to stick it out. Stay optimistic!

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe a lot of newly-accepted students just don't have sdn/facebook? It does seem odd.
 
Anybody else get a “notice of interest” email this morning? Scared the life out of me!

Same! Any time an email starts with “Thank you for…” my heart DROPS

Edit: speaking of which, shouldn’t we be due for a road to matriculation email soon?

The email made it seem like they're trying to gauge interest among their current waitlisted applicants--potentially to free up some waitlist spaces?

"The admissions committee will continue to make offers to applicants on our waitlist until mid June. We understand that it is very likely many of you have already received offers from other medical schools, we do ask that if you are no longer interested in our College of Medicine, please contact the Admissions Office and ask to be withdrawn from consideration.

Those of you who do remain interested, in an effort to help us better manage our waitlist, we encourage you to provide our office with a short 'Notice of Interest' - this is not required to remain on the waitlist."

I'm not sure about anyone else, but my response was pretty short since I'd already sent them an update letter and a letter of intent.

Mine was also very short because that is what they asked for.

It was about 4 days between my acceptance and the invite, but it seems it’s been much longer for you - I’d recommend reaching out!
 
Have they sent any financial aid information out yet?

Thank you. Maybe I joined it too early. Did they say anything other than the facebook group?

Nothing in regards to other groups (like GroupMe, etc.)
They sent reminders about the matriculation documents on the app portal and a notification about finaid, but that’s about it.

Was accepted off the waitlist but declined the offer earlier this week. It was such a tough decision but I think this is the best path for me. Best of luck to you all and I hope the spot goes to one of you!

Has anyone gotten a road to matriculation email this month? I was expecting one more about the Student Interest Groups, so I’m worried I missed an email.
