Can OOS students get an acceptance offer before March?
I found this online (lol): "October 15 – April 30: Admissions decisions for non-Texas residents go out. They will communicate the decision to you directly, not TMDSAS. You will not participate in the Match, you won’t worry about ranking any schools, nor will you receive any Pre-Match offers. However, you may receive multiple offers from more than one TMDSAS school during this time."
 
Realistically, is it reasonable to prematch this wave if my interview was in mid-October?
 
Do you know what the timing looked like last year?
Last year they sent out new offers about once a month.
But, as they say when you're buying stocks, "past performance is not a guarantee of future returns"

P.S. they are making phone calls today, so turn on your ringer and answer them! If you get a telemarketer you can hang up.

lucky for me, my dad has been shopping for car insurance and put my phone number down. Everytime I picked up the phone today I had a nice wave of disappointment followed by someone from geico asking me if I was looking for a better rate.

Hey but you probably made the day of some geico salesman who was greeted pleasantly by someone on the phone!
 
Has it been a one-day wave in the past?
Not the same people call everyone and the calls are distributed among various administrative types or faculty. They have to make time in their day to make the calls.

The first wave should have at least 10+ postings if not more.
 
Thank you. It's my first acceptance and very grateful for the opportunity.
That is something - first acceptance in the cycle with a full ride. Does it mean they are giving living expenses on top of tuition?

Are you instate? How many interviews did you do?

Sorry I guess it's full tuition, not full ride!

I'm in-state with 7 TMDSAS interviews. I will say though that I have work experience in Temple which I don't think a lot of people do.

I'm in-state with 7 TMDSAS interviews. I haven't prematched anywhere including UTSW so this was a surprise for sure. I will say though that I have work experience in Temple which I don't think a lot of people do.
Do you still live there?
 
For those who prematched, has anyone gotten an email yet to confirm?
 
UTSW and UTMB🤣 Feeling great with the offers I've got though😊
You go down to 1 school in March anyway and if you dont get a prematch at UTSW, you can always put them down as 1 in matchlist if you are serious about them, assuming you end up instate at all.
 
For those who prematched, has anyone gotten an email yet to confirm?
I suspect they wont release the letters until people have confirmed completing the calls. Not sure if they release for one caller at a time or the whole group in the end.
 
To those that have been prematched, do yall mind sharing stats as well as interview date? Thanks
 
Seems that most applicants if not all who prematched interviewed before October 1st 🙁
 
Was anyone else's offer letter just stock language?? My offer letter tab just says:

"test scholarship letter this is the scholarship decision:

SCHOLARSHIP DECISION"

LOL RIP
That's what mine says too! Did you also have 2 identical tabs to accept the offer?
