2022-2023 UT Southwestern (UTSW)

It sounds like UTSW never announced a waitlist and it is surprising only one person is currently reporting one.

Thanks! I’m surprised nobody else has mentioned getting the WL… I assumed they put everyone who didn’t match on the WL?

No, it's a selective waitlist. It's so late in the cycle I highly doubt we'll see much movement.

Don’t give up hope if you got the email. I know several people with UTSW A’s and OOS A’s that are weighing their options

 

[Wataheal]

Didn’t update here but I withdrew my UTSW A for one of my OOS options earlier this week! Still in the process of deciding but I received a scholarship that made it cheaper to go OOS!

Congrats! Case and point for those on the waitlist

It was an honor interviewing with you with Dr. Thornton and Dr. Kellsy 🙂

I did not get the email 🙂 but am feeling pretty good about UTMB and excited to be attending there, so no major loss in the end!

Congratulations. Are you giving up another school IS?

 

[wysdoc]

Congratulations. Are you giving up another school IS?

I think so and once you have confirmed accepting your UTSW offer, @tntx3 please promptly contact your match school directly to politely withdraw.

Yes. I have contacted the admissions office at my other IS school already to withdraw and thank them! Thank you!

Way to go!
Here is the FB group

 

[MercifulCamper]

My partner @beansncheese and I will be withdrawing our A's here shortly. It's been a great ride Texas folks! Thanks for being awesome, loving, and caring people. Hope these A's go to two of you on the WL.

Big news! Congratulations on narrowing things down further. I'm sure it hasn't been easy. All the best to you and beans! We've all got some serious work coming up.

 

[bean-sprout]

Idk who’s sending A’s at midnight but just got off the WL 3 minutes ago!

 

[Dual3452]

Same here, I just got an email at exactly midnight central time! Off the waitlist 🙂

Congrats!! I was totally shocked. Do you know how long we have to decide? I only saw the April 30th CTE deadline on the portal

This is what it said on the offer letter --> "Per TMDSAS traffic rules, an offer of acceptance received on or after April 30 will entitle you to up to 5 business days to respond to our offer. Failure to respond to our offer within 5 business days may result in the rescission of your Offer of Admission."

Appreciate it! The adrenaline clearly doesn’t have me reading too well lol

welcome to UTSW!

 

[texasvandy]

Congratulations @bean-sprout and @Dual3452.

I guess openings from @MercifulCamper and @beansncheese kicked in. Not sure who else dropped out.

 

[Dual3452]

Can anybody clarify how receiving financial aid work for those getting of the waitlist?

You probably won't hear within the 5 days or so you have to accept the seat. Get your FAFSA stuff to the financial aid office.

Financial aid at UTSW is usually all loans at UTSW. Both @MercifulCamper and @beansncheese had full tuition scholarships but no one knows who UTSW will pass them onto.

Are you IS or OOS?

My situation is a bit weird but technically out of state now I think

UTSW's official position is that they give 1k scholarship for all OOS to accommodate instate tuition. @MCAThiccy posted a video for MPH a while ago where they mentioned this as a standard. So right off the bat you can assume you will owe IS as opposed to OOS which is a 10k scholarship per year if I remember correctly.

Oh wow

I’m guessing you meant to say 10k both times, rather than 1k the first and 10k the second?

No he’s saying that getting to pay in-state tuition due to getting a 1K scholarship is in effect a 10K tuition discount

Will be turning down my A! McGovern countered yesterday with a full ride scholarship that I just can’t turn down. Good luck to fellow WLers! 🤗

Wow ! Congrats...so did you just call admissions and negotiate ?

 

[bean-sprout]

I called them to let them know that I'd been accepted to Southwestern and just asked if there was any way I could get a tentative decision on my scholarship application any sooner since they had previously told us we'd have to wait until June. They did all the rest! Extremely grateful!!
