"Medical schools can only see aggregate information until April 30th and will not know which applicants have selected "Plan to Enroll" at their school or at other schools."
ah i see. thank you so much!
It wouldn't surprise me if the main committee waitlists most PSTP applicants and leaves the decision up to the other committee.
Lmaoo did anybody else get a letter in the mail from Pitt saying they’re waitlisted? Like thanks
. They took a whole trees life to let us know we arent s***lol i just got mine </3
I felt like the CSS profile was worth than FAFSA!!
10,000x worse. My parents are separated too, so I had to walk my dad through filling out the noncustodial parent form over the weekend. Took many hours.
um are we twins? my parents are separated too but i only benefit from my mom’s income so….idk what to do lol
I emailed them a bit ago and told them my parents have been separated since childhood. I was told to give the CSS for both biological parents. FAFSA only needs the greater supporter.
i may end up calling tomorrow or just missing the deadline tbh :/ my work hours won’t give me time to sort this out during business hours i don’t think
I’m in a similar situation and got the same answer from the Pitt office. I also had to walk my parent through the form over the phone… and then still submitted it wrong and needed to submit a correction 🤦🏽♀️
I wouldn't call yet, I think they are working on it today. I received an email to correct something at around 10 am EST.
Also says "no" for me. I emailed them several days ago with all my stuff and asking for confirmation of receipt, but haven't heard anything. I'm assuming they're busy.
I got an email after I sent all my stuff in/was completed, they told me to disregard what the portal says. They are aiming to send out packages within the first two weeks of April.
Interesting ... If I don't hear back from them, by the end of the day, I'll message again. Thanks.
pre. I applied super late and didn't have many research accomplishments outside of hella hours so I wasn't expecting much
Yes it will hold your spot! Filling out that form will not be recognized as a commitment to attending this fall. I emailed a few weeks ago and asked this same question 🙂
Great, thank you!!
In previous years, waitlist movement started about one month after initial decision. You should send in an update letter as soon as possible if you have important updates.
Look above. Decisions came out a few weeks ago.
I'm talking about decisions for people who "linked" as part of a post-bac program. I don't believe those have come out yet but I am not sure?
Do you know around what percentage of people who apply for this get accepted?
also curious but I have no idea
I called yesterday and asked and they said the WL is not ranked + that the admissions committee has not made any decisions regarding applicants on the WL yet..they are waiting until there's movement by the people who were accepted.
I know this isn't what you want to hear but I know last year there was zero waitlist movement
I could be wrong here but I think “linker” is different from if you applied directly through AMCAS and got waitlisted. It seems linker is a postbacc program that takes in some ppl into the school.
Did you hear this directly from the admissions office? I know many people from previous years who were accepted from the waitlist.
Yeah this simply is not true. There was only one round of waitlist acceptances last year, and those were limited in number. It was remarked earlier in this thread that the admissions office had more students accept offers than usual in the two years past. Based on the 2/17/23 accepted / waitlist ratio we saw in this thread compared to years prior, I think they are being more careful this year
This is entirely the synthesis of my neuroticism so feel free to ignore me (in fact you probably should). But I was checking last year's thread and came across this comment made on March 15:
what's the groupme info!!??
^^ would you mind sharing the groupme?
Please send me the groupme info
I heard that that group also has current med students, and some accepted students might not have joined. So not sure how to analyze based upon those numbers.
