Not sure, but I don't think we'd hear anything this week because they're probably focused on Second Look Weekend this week
Becoming pessimistic... because people are about to drop schools to their top 3 by April 15th so you'd think they would have sent those all out by now?? Yikes I guess they only ~kind of~ want us if 80% of students get some type of merit aid
Some of us on WL happy to pay full price. Wish they had a box you could check saying that.Becoming pessimistic... because people are about to drop schools to their top 3 by April 15th so you'd think they would have sent those all out by now??

Kinda, they just told me that there was a room booked for me at the Double Tree CWE (but also it went through the Diversity Office something or other). Also for those looking for the schedule of events, there is a dedicated second look website. they sent out a link in the past week or so via email
I didn’t receive booking info, but I called the hotel to confirm!
Oh yes it absolutely was LOL, the full St. Louis weather experience in one day
Wow quite an adventurous day.. did they talk about the curriculum at all?
I uploaded via the portal and did not receive a confirmation. I reached out a few days later to admissions to confirm that they had received.
They did. Phase 1 of Gateway (preclinical) is true P/F and Phase 2 (clinical rotations) are P/F with Distinctions (that aren't delineated by rotation specialties as opposed to general competencies). The term the school likes to use is Competent/Not Competent. I think WashU used to do internal rankings by thirds in the legacy curriculum, but this is no longer the case. No AOA either
Just curious since this is the first time I've heard: What summer programs are available? I know MSTPs can start their summer rotation in early July but am not aware of other options.
Judging from previous years, it's possible they do the first wave of WL movement in one or two batches, kind of like their initial acceptances. If I had to guess, we'd be extremely lucky to hear anything before the first week of May. The first post last year confirming acceptance off the waitlist was first week of May.
Sure did!
am I misreading something or did the email say they wanted to provide an update regarding the waitlist status, but there was literally no change to the status lmao?
I think they're trying to remind ppl to withdraw if they're not interested to expedite the WL movement process
LOL we posted at the same time saying the same thing
I'm almost positive that they'll email you too, if that helps alleviate your worry lol
Almost definitely not, but I never said my paranoia was rational
I would give it a couple days at the least after May 1st. The deadline is then, but it's not like they are waiting to call the second someone withdraws. Best of luck though!
that makes 2 of us
Wait, is that legit the case? Did they mention there are no more merit scholarships after May 1st?that makes 2 of us
In past years' threads there have been people who have gotten off the WL and received scholarships so I think it's still possible !
From what I've heard, I'm very confident that people will continue to get full tuition scholarships up until matriculation day - and anecdotally even heard that these have gone to some original WL'ers, but as @MercifulCamper said, not necessarily before May 1st... (IE in like 3 days lmfao)
Congrats!! Pretty wild that WL movement started before May 1st here. Fingers crossed for all of us on the WL these next few days and weeks
WashU has hella WL movement. A few years ago legit I think they went through an absolutely ridiculous amount of it, hence the size in recent years.
Just saw your post history- HUGE congrats and you must be stoked you don't have to apply again!! So well-deserved, go celebrate until you do't have any brain cells left
hopefully the rest of us WL gang hear soon. lol now my anxiety has peaked thru the roof
