any scholarships recently?
Silent on my end. I literally sent them an email in December asking them to make a competitive scholarship offer to match one I got from a name brand med school. I grew up dreaming of being a “Beaumont Doctor™️” and I don’t want to wait until residency when I already have an A from the school. I sent them proof and the FA person pretty much dismissed me.

At this point, it would be significantly cheaper and better for my career if I went to this other med school, but I’m just clinging onto hope that OUWB offer me something by mid-April so I can be with my family and friends again. It is what it is but a big part of me just want to come home 🙁

You would be a Corewell Health Doctor now anyways [emoji6]

I made a quick pie chart and bar graph from the 2022 OUWB Match List to better visualize the results and thought I would share them if anybody wanted to look too. This is in addition to the ones OUWB provides us. Not sure if this will be helpful for anybody.

Some other quick facts:
-100% match rate for Urology (3/3) in the Class of 2023
-15% of applicants matched into California (28% Michigan)

Share any other facts about OUWB Match that you know!

Thank you for this! Do you know which specialties didn’t match?
 
Anyone recently got an interview? I was complete 7/23 and haven't heard back anything 🙁
Complete at a similar time and nothing. However I very randomly got a II at MSU this week and same exact situation there (kept missing out on R waves and complete for a while), so I am choosing to hold out some hope for this school as well.

Complete on 7/9 but no word from them despite hearing about the pre-II R waves. Not sure if they’re just sending them out in batches or if they’re narrowing down the applicant pool before sending out more II’s.
 
Are they not giving away goodies this cycle? I thought last cycle they gave out lanyards and stuff

I was accepted off of the waitlist yesterday! Still feels like some kind of mistake. Interviewed 10/14 and was waitlisted 11/16. Was not assigned a tier. 3.83/511/ORM. First MD acceptance and to have it here is special!!
Did you send an update since your WL decision, and if so, did it happen to be clinical or research in focus?

I did not send an update or have any correspondence after my interview other than thank-you letters... part of the reason this is hard to believe!
