LITERALLY

BRO. this q&a session is only about financial aid. what about everything else. WHAT ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE.

 

[siloaddict]

1) this webinar is a joke. Grossman had it for accepted students while they’re hosting it for applicants. This is just dangling a prize probably 10% of us will have a chance of getting if that.
2) they must be really worried about retention to be doing it at this time
3) transparency is a joke
4) they keep using the words “should they qualify” which is extremely vague and essentially useless
5) doing this a week before decisions come out is really just off putting

Sorry to burst our bubbles, but I don't think it's 10% 😭.... it's probably much lower...

Yes, this is 100% turn off. If they are trying to attract students, this is not how you do it. You do it for the acceptees, not us applicants..

 

[beepbeep197]

FAFSA and CSS profile--needs both student and parental information for scholarships beyond free tuition.

Exactly lol. For those of us who chose OB-GYN or surgery, it is like 1%, if even that lmao

obgyn gang RISE UP.

 

[chimericantigenreceptor]

There’s an anonymous option someone ask how many people are in the final pool 😭😭😭

 

[PreMed1786682]

'If you qualify for the debt-free financial aid, but again, we cannot guarantee that'- okay so then what is the point of this?

 

[honeybeepremed]

If I hear CSS and FAFSA again ...

 

[beepbeep197]

wait how do I choose that

 

[beepbeep197]

I SEE IT!

 

[honeybeepremed]

wait how do I choose that

In the q&a when you type the question you can click send anonymously!

I see it 🙂 I asked if there's time to ask general questions later cos this dude is just financial aid and I don't want to freak him out

 

[PreMed1786682]

Very stupid question but what is a CSS profile lmao

 

[Morningnight]

Very stupid question but what is a CSS profile lmao

It's a financial aid application that some of the private schools use. FAFSA 2.0 in a sense. It's a little annoying because it costs money to file.

Edit: link to CSS Profile

Damn did I have to fill that out? This is the first I am hearing of it

 

[siloaddict]

PLEASE ASK ABOUT DIFFERENT POOLS FRIENDS!

 

[beepbeep197]

You will have to fill it out if you want to apply for scholarships for CoA beyond tuition

 

[banksys_bupropion]

it absolutely is. also "transparency about the application process" has me on the floor

I submitted an anon question citing their commitment to transparency and asking when they would release decisions. They haven’t answered yet. 🙃

 

[beepbeep197]

when you are 35 years old you do not need to add parental info for CSS and FAFSA

It’s actually made me feel better about the impending rejection because I’m genuinely so frustrated rn.

 

[beepbeep197]

If you cannot get information from a non-custodial parent, reach out to the financial aid office individually.

If you are working this year but not next year (cos we're going to med school!):
fill out FAFSA and CSS normally with last year's income info, then reach out to the financial aid office and they'll review your profile and help you make changes if necessary.

FAFSA Code for NYULISOM: 002785
CSS Profile for NYULISOM: 2305

IT COSTS MONEY TO FILE ARE YOU SERIOUS

 

[Medicat]

I think it definitely was in the past when NYULISOM was completely new. Ig it still is a new school that some people are very hesitant about!

if MSAR data is to be believed, 14 students get offers from the waitlist, so it might be that a majority rescind their As. Alternately, many students might accept their A, but NYULISOM might cycle through a few candidates to fill a single spot.

In any case, cool to see that options are still fairly open even on the waitlist!

Yo please stop asking about the wording of the email. I’m 99% sure only the ppl in this call have a chance for admission and it’s equal across specialities between the people in this call. Not to be a dick but please move on.

In other news I’m in disbelief at this call

 

[beepbeep197]

oh my god. I hate it here. I hate it here.

 

[Morningnight]

IT COSTS MONEY TO FILE ARE YOU SERIOUS

Yes, it is $25 for the first school, and $16 for each additional school you send to. I will never understand why it costs money for students to apply for loans and scholarships.

 

[toetheline]

I sure will be waiting after I get in before paying to file this lol
Edit: if by some miracle I get in lmao

late stage capitalism at its worst...

No way is it equal.. Surgery has 2 spots. Internal medicine has 14 spots...

 

[beepbeep197]

early next week. y'all. by Tuesday or Wednesday.

Because we have a for-profit education system 🤮

 

[owala]

WE WILL HEAR BACK EARLY NEXT WEEK!!

by Wednesday at the latest

DECISIONS OUT BY TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY
😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

 

[banksys_bupropion]

They answered my question! lol

 

[toetheline]

I wonder whether they’re reading SDN rn lol

 

[beepbeep197]

the pain of this cycle will be over soon... thank god.

 

[PreMed1786682]

No way is it equal.. Surgery has 2 spots. Internal medicine has 14 spots...

I believe they interview lesser people for surgery than IM so the percentage of acceptance across specialties is similar but again, I don't trust the words of an admissions coordinator.

 

[banksys_bupropion]

I’m gonna ask how many ppl left in the pool

 

[beepbeep197]

I wonder whether they’re reading SDN rn lol

Another dean told me he reads SDN lol

 

[PreMed1786682]

Also, the smart thing would be to wait before filing the CSS profile, especially if it costs money.

 

[Medicat]

I sure will be waiting after I get in before paying to file this lol
Edit: if by some miracle I get in lmao

This would have been wise. I already submitted and feel like I scammed myself lmao.
