I believe June 1st
Question regarding CTE. I believe my school says June 16, but other school says June 1. Do different schools have different rules? Or does AMCAS have one as a whole

I think it would be school specific especially for schools you have been off the WL. I just got in to a school a few days ago and my cte is much later than June 1st!!
Depends on the school

Isnt it the opposite? like aren't there supposed to be more spots opening after the CTE deadline because people with multiple acceptances could be withdrawing their spot hence opening spots for the WL?
I feel like I’m being delusional holding onto hope for waitlist movement here at this point, but the Facebook group numbers for this year are still drastically lower than prior years so I have my fingers and toes crossed for this week!

LOL I got offered a WL position? I did not even interview for UCSD??? This happen to anyone else?
Same happened to me LOL. No interview and somehow got on the waitlist. Not sure what's going on.
If you don't mind me asking - did you guys get an email from UCSD, or did it just appear on the CYMS tool?
I just saw it on the CYMS tool. I just followed up with UCSD and long story short, there is a program only for applicants who have NOT received an acceptance to any school. In this program, they can take undergraduate courses at UCSD and keep a 3.5 GPA for a year and then be admitted to the medical school.
They need to add folks to the alternate list on CYMS to see if they have an acceptance elsewhere (via Plan to Enroll or Commit to Enroll), so even you have an acceptance elsewhere, they put you on the alternate list because they would have no way of knowing that otherwise. Luckily, I have an A already, which renders me ineligible for this program. Just in case the same thing happened to anyone else.
Well, I don't think I'm getting off the waitlist. Guess we can hope for UCSD for residency in the future. Good luck to everyone who got in, those going elsewhere, and those who are reapplying.

for those of you that are accepted, can anyone confirm what the CTE date is for this cycle?
I've been reading about "delayed movement" at various schools. The school i got accepted at let people off last week. And a friend of mine was accepted to a UC last week. Also , i think it was never confirmed that June 1st was the CTE date. The reason I say this is because , for example, I got accepted to a school that started July 5th and their CTE was today (i declined them). The school I am going to (PTE) has a CTE deadline of June 26 because we start in mid august. My friend is trying to get into a school that starts in August and their CTE IS July 1st. I believe that UCSD starts in late august and most schools have their CTE 30 days before start date. Thats what i've heard...but not sure what the UCSD CTE is. Someone asked to confirm but there was no response. Also no follow up on one of the posters saying no reply from admissions regarding movement not sure if that is still the case.
Last Friday was the med school's graduation apparently, so maybe that is a factor too

I had asked about movement weeks ago but no reply 🙁 not sure if they are just busy or ghosting me but i sent to [email protected]
interesting. Well not over yet, my friend got off the waitlist at another school an hour ago....literally anyones guess still. And theres been a fair amount of movement on waitlist support threads. So one can hope
I asked them last week, but no reply either. At this point, I honestly just want some closure. It seems like last year, they sent an email out to everyone in june when it was highly unlikely that further movement would happen.
The email I have is [email protected]. Perhaps its best to use this one instead of the one put here?

Uhm….. I just got the call this morning. I am utterly speechless….
Call or email? When?
Wow I am so happy for you, but also incredibly jealous! I hope that there's still some movement to come!!!

I too am curious if you meant email or if they brought back the call. Do I now have to have jump scares now when my phone rings? Or if you responded to the wrong thread for a school who does call? Don't leave us hangin!

Brian called me around 12 PM. He asked if I accept their offer. I said yes, so he sent me an email shortly after the call.
Interesting... congrats! Hopefully theres still movement D:

Damn, new fear unlocked. I hope we get some closure soon, whether some of us also get the call or the mass email saying there is less than a 1 percent chance. Then Ill move on to my other A.

I wish they would do waves of cuts throughout the process. This **** is bananas. I’m sure there are many of us who would put the brakes on moving if ucsd gave us the A. Ofcourse it’s a choice to stay on the wl and my other school is awesome but damn that little voice of what if sucks
last year it seemed like the majority of pre-II hold's did not result in an II later
Thanks so much for this. I heard similar things, appreciate the response.
