This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Any news about WL movement or it is over?
They were admitting people until orientation last year so I am sure there will still be movement

Thanks so much for your reply, did they distinguish between HPWL and alternate at all?
No problem! They just said waitlist, but I know they previously mentioned that they do try to go through the HPWL and then alternate, except a few times where they pull from the alternate first

I have tried to ask them this but they always say they can’t share that information. BUT , I remember reading in a previous years thread that it is 100 people for just the HPWL. If anyone does find out, or finds out how much they have left on the HPWL please let your homie on the alt list know 🥲

Does anyone know how the guarantee with the HPWL works? Like if they call us this late into the cycle, are we allowed to defer for the next year or would we have to reapply?

You wouldn’t have to reapply but I think you might have to sign an affidavit.
I’m not sure though and it’s probably best to just call admissions. I know they said that they could accept people until July 11th.

Does anyone know if its possible to withdraw after orientation starts?
I believe it is possible because Admission office said they will continue to pull people off the waitlist even during orientation, so I guess

I heard people have done it at RowanSOM previously and at other schools, even during first week or two after classes started because they were accepted at their first choice programs elsewhere/close to home. Wondering how it works with refunds in this case, is there a 100% refund up until any particular date?
I think they said 14 days after payments due you can still get 100% refund.
 
Is anyone able to call I keep getting to the voicemail
I called today and it went through. Maybe they were away from the desk when you called. Try calling in the morning, around 10am they usually pick up 😊

Does anyone know what it means if someone from the admissions staff reaches out to you to complete the secondary application within a day? My brother applied for the 2022-23 cycle recently and someone from the RowanSOM admissions staff contacted him and sent a link to the secondary application, asking him to complete it within a day. I got into a med school this cycle and usually just got general secondary app invites but none ever asked to complete it almost immediately, so we're a bit confused.

Hey, not exactly sure what it means but it could just mean they want him sending it right away because of the increased number of applicants they are seeing this year. However, you can always call and ask them and they would help you with that
 
Would this Friday be the last day they would call people up from the waitlists or would there be a possibility (albeit a small one) that there would be call ups throughout next week

Congrats!!! So this means that Rowan has no preference between the two waitlists then?
Not sure. They just told me a seat for PBL opened up, but I know they have to meet certain criteria being a public school. So me being in-state and other stuff might have played a role.
 
I'm curious... like this post if you are on the HPWL and have not heard back yet

Just curious when the last interviews were for last round of applications if anyone is still a part of this thread?? Haven't heard back yet and hoping for a miracle
 
I just graduated from their Master’s and am applying this cycle. If you want to pm me you can!
did that lead to acceptance to the school and if so did you complete one or two years and did you have a strong mcat
thanks
