I interviewed at Cooper last year on March 5, and I think there may have been one or two more dates after that. I received my interview invite on January 6, but I was also complete here late in the cycle. People maybe received an email on February 10 saying that Cooper was done sending out interview invites.
Then I guess they didn't make allowances for last minute cancellations. The e-mail definitely said the interview cycle was over.

From what I am reading now, there is definitely a high priority list and those placed on it, are actually notified by email of such placement. Just wondering how many high priority and regular waitlisted candidates are there and actual movement or chances of being accepted. I do understand that high priority have a very good chance.
Just wanna chime in here that this is probably an exception, but it is possible to get in off the normal WL - one of my friends did last year
Wow interesting, do you know if the high priority WL means you have a good chance of being accepted?
That is awesome! Do you recall when approximately your friend was contacted with the acceptance?
Current M1 here - I interviewed March 5, was put on regular waitlist the next week. And got off the waitlist on May 3. I'm pretty sure the earliest they accept people off the waitlist is April 30. I think generally they take everyone off of the priority waitlist, and a good number off of the regular waitlist.
Thank you for your reply! Were you accepted elsewhere prior to hearing from Cooper and paid the deposit elsewhere to hold your seat /proceeded to rent housing? Just wondering how things are done when applicants are accepted off of the waitlist late in the cycle (May/June) and the steps one needs to take to proceed from that point on once you decide to accept the new acceptance offer instead? Thanks again
If you're holding an acceptance, you'll definitely want to pay the deposit for at least one school prior to April 30 so you can hold your seat there. Then if you're accepted off of the waitlist elsewhere, you'll need to pay a new deposit for the new school. Housing/rent market is different in every city. You can google to see when you need to start looking for housing in any particular city.
Congratulations!!! Did your email mention anywhere when you should anticipate to hear back if anything?
Thanks! They didn't say exactly when... it just said "Candidates accepted from the waitlist will be notified of their status change immediately, and this process most often occurs in late spring to early summer."
Thank you so much - I appreciate it!!
No, only if you have been placed on wait list post interview.
100%.
You got waitlisted last year?? I guess that answers my question lol
I did :/
What was the outcome of your interview?

Priority WL here too last month - if you don’t mind me asking, what are your stats and are you OOS?
3.7/518, OOS (East Coast).
WL has a very good chance for acceptance, don’t give up!
Good luck and keep us updated!
Thank you!!

I also got WL with no mention of priority. It means we're on the regular WL. Not necessarily an R since people in past years have gotten in from the regular WL, but the chances aren't amazing.
