2022-2023 UC San Francisco

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Does anyone know what the chances of getting off the alternate list are here?
 
I interviewed in early January and just got the WL too. FWIW I know someone who got off of it a few years ago!
 
Hi everyone, congrats to everyone who got in! 1st year student here if anyone has q's 🙂

P.S. IDK how it will change this year since WL movement varies, but in terms of WL movement, there was some movement last year for the special programs (ie SJV-Prime) but 0 movement for the regular MD program (which was actually very slightly overenrolled by a few people). Maybe they're more conservative with A vs WL this time around as a result.
 
Got the call from the JMP followed by a WL email for regular MD.

Happy but still waiting on some WL action, which I fully expect to be very slim 😒
 
Does anyone know if we are supposed to accept the offer on the portal if we are not 100% sure if we are going to UCSF? I am leaning towards it heavily at the moment but need to see how the money situation shakes out

MSAR states:

Waitlist Information​

Typical number of waitlist positions per cycle
Approximately 150

Number of acceptance offers granted to applicants on the waitlist
50

Waitlist procedures and information
Applicants on the alternate list are not considered until after the May 1 deadline.
How does this jive with your statement? Is this stale data or were the 50 offers all from special programs?
 
Does anyone know anything about how open UCSF is to deferring 1y? Having trouble finding any past posts if there are any, please link!
 
Not to be creepy but the # of ppl on the FB page seems low. Definitely lower than previous years

Eh. Nothing's gonna budge till May 1st, per their policy. Best to make arrangements for your secured acceptances and then hope for WL movement, in that order.
