First acceptance of the cycle. Received the email 1 hour ago.

I didn't think it'd hit me so hard emotionally, but months of stress and worry about my future just came pouring out all at once. Such a visceral feeling to know that for the first time in years my path forward in life is concrete and no longer in limbo.

So excited to possibly attend this school!

Edit: Interviewed 1/24 if that is of any help

Congrats! Did you get accepted off the WL?

 

[EndureVascular]

Funny you mention this; I emailed financial aid today inquiring about it. I was accepted in December, so...

They hit me back, and anticipate award packages going out the first week of April!

Does SLU accept any letter of interest? Got WL'ed and would love to attend

 

[Uarkpremed37]

Yeah just write it out on a word doc and post it to the document upload section of their applicant portal.

 

[wabadaba]

gona withdraw. hope everyone gets an A somewhere!

 

[Metaldoc99]

So has anyone at all heard anything on the WL? I read that SLU typically doesn’t start accepting anyone from it until May, just wondering if that’s true for this year.

 

[deleted1158770]

Anyone else still waiting on their financial aid package?

 

[PatchyStoichiometry]

Anyone else still waiting on their financial aid package?

Yes…

 

[deleted1158770]

I thought that they said it would be this week at the latest. Hoping next week then lol.

Most traction happens first half of May.
5/1 is when most schools want commit to enroll and reduce to 3 WL. Then schools can get specific data about their accepted and WL’s as to how many commit to them or other places. Then the fun starts for WL. May you get an A.

 

[PatchyStoichiometry]

For those of you who have attended second look days, how casual was "business casual"?

 

[imgettininregardless]

i would say so, but i don’t think you’d get penalized for coming more casual

[legome]

[imgettininregardless]

[PatchyStoichiometry]

I received a scholarship! They called me yesterday and I received an email with the award letter attached today.

 

[reinforced]

Oh man, I hope they're still going out if that's the case.

 

[PatchyStoichiometry]

Yes, I hope so. Good luck!

 

[imgettininregardless]

congrats!! was the email sent your email (on amcas) or ur slu email?

 

[deleted1158770]

Congrats! Did you have to apply for it? Or did they just award it to you? And was it need or merit based?

 

[PatchyStoichiometry]

Thank you!! It was my email on amcas. I didn't know we had access to a SLU one 👀

 

[PatchyStoichiometry]

Congrats! Did you have to apply for it? Or did they just award it to you? And was it need or merit based?

Thank you!! Yes, I applied for it (my understanding is that all of SLU's scholarships you have to apply for). And it was merit-based, but also contingent on need (had to fill out FAFSA).

 

[deleted1158770]

There was no enrollment deposit for this school right? Or am I missing something

 

[kaori_ono]

Is there just no WL movement until after April 30th?

 

[deleted1158770]

Probably not, most schools wait till may I think.

 

[imgettininregardless]

not from what i know

wow when did u apply? i saw a slu scholarship but it was due in jan and i was admitted in feb :/

 

[PatchyStoichiometry]

I applied right before the January deadline! And ya I'm confused why they have that deadline when people are still receiving acceptances afterwards...

 

[EndureVascular]

Just got an email to view my scholarship- I opened the tab and there was nothing there for me. That hurts

 

[lmarq7973]

Full loan CoA. I've received better offers elsewhere so I will likely withdraw. 360K in debt is steeeeeep

Same, I like SLU but I’d be in too deep with that

 

[lmarq7973]

Damn shame because I really did feel something. Even took some time to apply for a scholarship. I knew med school debt was a different beast but 360k debt is the kind of money people spend their lives to conquer. I have no family to support me so I'd be taking this head on. St Louis looks cool but I'd have trouble justifying over half a million in debt (after interest) for even downtown Manhattan with central park views. Again, absolute shame.

 

[bobbyfriedo]

Withdrew my A here, hope it goes to one of y'all waiting!
