Same. Ms. Warren said they see a lot of movement in February and March. Hopefully, a lot of spots open up during that time.🤞 Unfortunately, all we can do right now is wait.

Does anyone know if Marshall accepts update letters before even receiving an II?

I sent them an update before receiving an II!

 

[MDPhDmaybe?]

OOS MD/PhD A today, interviewed 12/20. Will most likely decline this offer, I hope this opens up a spot for one of you!

Will this potentially open a MD spot or a MD/PhD spot?

Most likely and MD/PhD spot

Has anyone on the alternate list been accepted yet? I wonder if spots are starting to open up...

I wake up every morning and go to sleep every night wondering the exact same thing

 

[mitochondriarocks]

I run to check my email every morning and throughout the day. Still nothing, but trying to be patient.

 

[highlander11]

Could be… I am OOS and interviewed in December. They told me in my post-interview discussion or whatever that they had like minimal spots left and were telling us to be optimistic about WL. Then I got in two days later so keep the faith

Was your acceptance notice an email or phone call?

 

[mediocrestudent97]

Phone call and got an email later @highlander11

 

[chan580]

Does anyone know how often the admissions committee meets?

 

[chan580]

Has anyone on the alternate list heard anything yet?

 

[mitochondriarocks]

Has anyone on the alternate list heard anything yet?

I’ve been waiting, nothing yet. Hopefully sometime in April.

 

[highlander11]

I unfortunately do not think we alternate listers will hear anything until late April

 

[chan580]

I unfortunately do not think we alternate listers will hear anything until late April

I thought we would hear something in February or March, but hopefully, we hear something this month!

 

[highlander11]

This is the month! (Or maybe early May lol). Good luck to everyone!

 

[mediocrestudent97]

Withdrawing my acceptance this week. Hoping my seat goes to one of y’all that is waiting to hear back!

 

[chan580]

mid-April and still haven't heard anything

 

[highlander11]

mid-April and still haven't heard anything

Don’t lose hope. I think it’s going to come down to that May 2nd date when everyone with multiple acceptances has choose to enroll somewhere!

 

[chan580]

I heard that there are currently 60 people on the waitlist. They expect only a few spots to open up, and if they do, West Virginia applicants automatically get priority. Unfortunately, I don't think there is much hope for anyone on the waitlist that is out of state

That’s crushing. When/where did you hear this

 

[chan580]

I know...I literally felt so sad after hearing that as I really want to go here. Someone I know spoke to admissions on Monday, and that's what they said.

 

[highlander11]

Do you have any idea how many people on that WL are WV residents? If it is super low, maybe we stand a chance?

 

[chan580]

Not sure. But even if there were a few, they would still get priority over anyone out of state as Marshall is a state school. I interpreted that to mean that anyone out of state has little to no chance

 

[chan580]

However, maybe some miracle will happen, and at least one of us will get accepted. Only time will tell.

 

[highlander11]

I wonder why they only expect a few spots to open up...

 

[chan580]

It's possible that those who are already accepted are committed to Marshall and are only holding one acceptance.

 

[highlander11]

How would the admissions committee know that though

 

[chan580]

I think you can indicate "Plan to Enroll" in the AMCAS application, and Marshall probably gets notified about how many students intend to matriculate

 

[chan580]

However, I think we may know more when the "Commit to Enroll" option becomes available...

 

[mediocrestudent97]

They know how many students they accepted have one or multiple offers until the second… they also have aggregate data telling them who chose Marshall w the plan to enroll tool. That’s how they get a abstract headcount as to what to expect rn

 

[chan580]

Has anyone on the waitlist heard anything recently?

 

[highlander11]

Nothing

 

[mitochondriarocks]

Has anyone on the waitlist heard anything recently?

Not yet. Do you know when movement should start?

 

[highlander11]

No clue. Is it worth asking Cindy or Nancy?

 

[chan580]

I would ask either one of them if you can. I would guess that some movement would happen soon as the "commit to enroll" tool became available...

 

[mudfud26]

JFYI Commit to enroll was available starting yesterday.

 

[highlander11]

I will ask soon and get back to y'all

 

[highlander11]

JFYI Commit to enroll was available starting yesterday.

Did you CTE Marshall?

 

[mudfud26]

Did you CTE Marshall?

Yes. I had also indicated to them as Plan to Enroll.

 

[mitochondriarocks]

No clue. Is it worth asking Cindy or Nancy?

Yes I think it would be good to ask. If you can let us know what they say that would be great

 

[highlander11]

Emailed them both earlier today. As soon as I know something y’all will too!

OOS accepted off of the waitlist earlier today via phone call! interviewed and waitlisted in January

for anyone wondering, they mentioned that today was the first day of waitlist movement, so there is surely more to come from here for anyone waiting--hang in there!

Also, do you mind sharing your stats?

 

[happy_days_lol]

Also, do you mind sharing your stats?

Also, out of curiosity, are you taking this acceptance? (You don’t have to share if not comfortable)

pm me!

they didn't say if there were other spots open, but I feel like there has to be!

 

[chan580]

Hoping there is more waitlist movement this week! 🤞
