I think someone posted this question but I can’t find it anymore. But about when are the last As sent out?

From what I know, there are still some interviews left to be done, so I assume most of the A's, barring waitlists, will be given in the next month or two.

Barring WL acceptances, 291 acceptances have been offered last year outright

Maybe most acceptances have been given out then, with WLs remaining?

Where did you get this data?

The FB group for UMass Medical School Class of 2025 has 390 members.. so if we are currently at ~200 for 2026, we will have a solid shot
 
Does anyone know if UMass is generous with financial aid and merit scholarships?

MSAR says waitlist info is 100 acceptances/150 waitlist offers. 390 members in 2025 probably includes waitlist acceptees

Not sure that the FB group includes waitlist acceptees since I was waitlisted last year and not invited to the FB group. Maybe that's because I was at the tail end? But it does seem like quite a high number otherwise.

FYI, there are a lot of MS1s and MS2s in the 2026 FB group because some of them are involved in second look day and some other activities.

how would you all describe your interview experience? I have mine coming up and was wondering if the sdn interview question page for Umass was pretty on par with what you all experienced?

It was just regular MMI questions. Nothing pressured, no trick questions, know why UMass, know the career direction you want, you should be GTG

Does anyone know if PURCH applicants have to wait longer to wait for an answer? Like I don't know how the admissions process works for that

On the PURCH website it says that over half their decisions come after March. I think if you didn’t make the initial cut, PURCH takes time to balance all of the factors in their class makeup (ie. Regular MD vs PhD, OOS vs IS, Men vs Women etc).

i don't think so, after looking at previous cycles for UMass, it seems that once they send the first waitlist, they mainly only send waitlist decisions only

Doesn't the accepted student need to request to be added? Or are students sent out invitations via FB?

There's an email sent out a few days after acceptance. A lot of the members are M1 and M2s. I think they are invited via FB

Guys…speculating on the number of admitted students based on relaying what we think the numbers of members in a different Facebook page is probably the least productive thing to put mental effort into.

It's hard to know for sure without checking on each person, but a quick look through suggests about 30 - 40 current med students and the rest accepted students. It could be a bit more since some people don't list UMass on their FB bios which is the only part that's visible to non-FB friends.
