Darn, but that might not be completely true for those who are still on the waitlist. Given every student is supposed to be considered for these scholarships, maybe there are some on reserve for those who haven't gotten their aid package yet. At least that's my thinking.
They’re so terrible for that. It’s literally almost AprilStill haven't heard anything from UCLA post-II. Feeling forgotten
Haven’t heard anything yet either- can we just assume it’s over if we don’t hear anything this week? lolStill haven't heard anything from UCLA post-II. Feeling forgotten
There was a random trailing A maybe last year or the year before? Maybe we are the random trailing A people
Ahh thank you for the deep dive! Sheesh it really seems like we might have gotten that WL, but dang they could’ve just told us that earlier like everyone else 😂 I, too, would just like an answer at this point because what the heck man lmao
One thing to keep in mind for scholarships is that they initially offer them to highly competitive students to entice them to choose Dgsom. Some of these students will end up choosing Havard and others. They may have all been awarded at the moment but they will become available again and will most likely be awarded all through May. For waitlisted applicants losing hope, I got off the waitlist 05/01 and got awarded a Geffen award more than 3 weeks later.
Did you have Top of the Waitlist distinction? Thank you for your inspiring post!
Any updates, my friend? Hoping good news for you!
Nope I did not.
Lol couldn't wait til Friday, just sent an email. Fingers crossed!
Heard back this morning. It was basically "Thanks for waiting while we continue our holistic review."

It's not an R, yet!
The website says they don't consider them at all
They don't consider anything updates or any letters post-interview or for the WL unfortunately :/
According to waitlist procedures given by AAMC, DGSOM does not consider applicants on waitlist until after May 1st.
It was a very well put together event. Got to meet a lot of fellow classmates and faculty, tour the campus (not hospitals), and have questions answered. They invested heavily in the event, and it showed. It was a good idea to just have one weekend, so everyone could be there, students and faculty, both. Very impressed.
Absolutely loved it!
i'd say go talk to financial aid -- they're really kind and helpful. you can find appointments with them on the website.
it seems like WL is ranked so it shouldn't matter when you interview
No insight into how the WL works -- I just know anecdotally that WL offers go out as early as the first couple days, 2-3 weeks later, and 2 months later (yes, it can go up to July if folks choose to defer last minute).
I received a full tuition scholarship last month and just got a full COA a few days ago. I assume it was because someone else turned it down, and they will probably pass my previous tuition scholarship to someone else
commit to enroll? yes, that’s binding and means you’re only going to attend that school and giving up your other acceptances and waitlist spots. For plan to enroll, no
No. They're not going to not consider you bc/ of PTE, only CTE.
Thank you!!!!
I think probably tomorrow, because people are still working on the PTE deadline until tonight! Good luck, everyone!
Congrats! Was it a phone call or email?
Email. Does anyone know when we get financial aid or scholarship info off the waitlist. It seems a little underhanded to only give 5 days to decide without having this information.
Congratz!! Did you have the top of WL designation?
