Hi, thank you for this information. I was hoping you could provide me a little more insight in regards to a letter of intent. Should I upload this to my personal admissions portal or should I attach it to an email to the admissions team? I interviewed 10/16 and have not heard anything back, but it is my clear number 1 choice. Thank you in advance.
As you might have seen me say on some other Texas threads, with our Match Day system your intent is stated clearly when you rank a school #1 on your list.
Did you email or upload to the portal?
Wow that’s very interesting. I haven’t gotten an interview with them and would love to send them an update but have been advised not to.
I emailed them and they notified me it would updated in my profile.
Yeah this is my top choice and I figured I'd just shoot my shot. 🤷♀️ I researched on their website and could not find anywhere that they didn't accept updates.
the only step score that matters directly connects to patient care. UTSW says they do very well with that STEP.
The way I saw it was that they were playing to their strengths; UTSW is very strong with regards to research, match lists, and step scores compared to most other TX schools. My understanding is that the clinical training you get at medical schools is pretty standardized and not going to vary immensely between UTSW and the other well-established TX schools, so they focused the interview day on what truly sets the school apart.
Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. Like, of course, they'd want to emphasize research since they're an absolute powerhouse and it does set them apart from other TX schools.
Historically, UTSW fills the majority of its entry class with pre-match offers. As of 12/8/2021, UTSW has filled about half of its class for EY 2022 (i.e., ~125 students so far have been accepted and plan to matriculate). It seems they send out pre-match waves every 2-3 weeks. The first wave was 10/15/2021, the second wave was 11/1/2021, and the third wave was 11/19/2021. I matched 13 days after interviewing, so you may very well be in the next batch, likely coming up very soon! Best of luck! <3
I filled it out but didn't have any issues. I haven't heard anything back from them though.

Definitely follow up with the property manager, Mr. Gary Corkill, this is his email: [email protected]. I emailed him asking to confirm if he had received the check and application over mail, and he replied within a day or two.
Congrats!! What interview date were you?
12/4!
Are yall only doing this apartment stuff if you're sure you will go here? Not sure I'll end up here so wouldn't wanna pay deposits and stuff in that case
You have time and these aren't the only apartments in Dallas, so if they fill up you will find something comparable
The apartments are cheapest option available in the area so it is worth requesting if there is a chance to end up here. Since you seem to be interviewing quite a bit you probably end up with a lot of other admissions.
I think the deposit is only $20 too, so it's not anything crazy.
UTSW is my second choice, I have not heard from Baylor yet, so I may or not may end up there. I thought $25 deposit was worth risking, just so I can get on the waitlist for Medpark apartments.
Where are you getting this information? Do you mind checking now how many seats have been filled after the most recent wave?
Depends on whether all interview dates are already filled.
Dang as a relatively high stat applicant from Dallas without an II … damn it UTSW lol
There is a facebook page! I think if you look up UTSW Class of 2026 it should pop right up.
I am not sure that is correct number.
I mean some people in that fb aren’t for 2022 cycle or admitted in 2022.
Thank you! sGPA: 3.96 MCAT: 510, URM/low-income & traditional
Same! Good luck to everyone who interviews.
