Is it worth sending a letter of interest IS pre-II?

i honestly think they're done interviewing - you could, but we were told last interviews are in jan/feb, so have been surprised to see any interviews at all in the last couple of weeks. Also i received an R from here, so i'll unwatch this thread, good luck everyone!

That's a bummer, I haven't received an R yet but will be expecting it. Thanks for the heads up 🥲

I don’t think they are done

Does this school do silent rejections? Haven't heard anything since August.

 

[milkcarton]

Anyone on WL send a letter of intent? / do you send it via email

 

[1surgeon]

congrats to everyone on the cycle! i’m currently a premed student at a state school here, i wanted to ask for a advice on ways i could standout so i could possibly get an A.

honestly this school just came off as a high stats school - if you have the > 3.8 >515 MCAT i think they'll interview you. i didn't have anything else special.

I got a 3.4X and 514 and got a interview. I was rejected though so you may be right [emoji23]

I was also rejected lol - but from interview day, etc. i don't think there's anything more to applying here. seems like a pretty cookie cutter school that takes high stats applicants - two-thirds of which don't matriculate because of said high stat, and then they pull of the WL.

The old GroupMe for accepted students got messed up because bots joined. I made a new one for any one that wants to rejoin that has a security question so hopefully that keeps it limited to only accepted students: GroupMe

I know they said no WL movement until May but does anyone know how much the WL even moves? Is there an alright chance of getting an A from the WL?

I heard they take 50% of their class off the WL

 

[one_masterpiece]

IS Pre II R, didn’t even get my app screened 😭

 

[Soyantha27]

IS Pre II R, didn’t even get my app screened 😭

Same

 

[Doctazmic]

IS Pre II R, didn’t even get my app screened 😭

Same, mine now says "passive withdrawal"

 

[_CaptainKaladin_]

OOS Pre-II R. Knew it was coming for a while, but still unfortunate. They never even looked at my app. I spent a lot of time on that secondary, which makes this even more unfortunate😂

 

[JolieFleur]

IS Pre-II 😭 second rejection today.

 

[coin22]

OOS Pre II-R, did anyone else’s say “please consider reapplying next year” lol

 

[med229]

OOS Pre II-R, did anyone else’s say “please consider reapplying next year” lol

+1

Anyone on WL send a letter of intent? / do you send it via email

Does anyone have an answer for this? I emailed admissions to ask but haven't received a response (I was wondering if it should be emailed or paired with an update through the portal)

 

[1surgeon]

i was rejected (not sure how I keep getting alerts, smh) - someone in our frat is also WL, I think they consider the updates tab on the portal. not sure tho

How do you know if they looked at your app?

Yes send a letter of intent via email

 

[1surgeon]

Yes send a letter of intent via email

Thanks, I think this is what the OP already did, and the office didn't respond. I was referring to what my friend on the waitlist mentioned—that they don't consider letters of intent because the waitlist is unranked, and it's better to keep updates on the portal.

 

[_CaptainKaladin_]

How do you know if they looked at your app?

Mine says “passive withdrawal,” and the portal never updated my app to being out of admissions screening so I take that to mean they never looked at my app.

I just got a little acceptance goodie in the mail from FIU, anyone know if FAU sends anything to accepted students? I want some merch😍

 

[firstfundamentalform]

does anyone know how much WL movement happens in the first couple of weeks of May? Not sure if I should expect to wait until June...

They said most movement happens in May but can of course go through class starting.

 

[DocPluto]

Happy April 30th everyone hopefully we start hearing things back next week!

 

[dracotarg]

withdrew A- GOOD LUCK [emoji256]

 

[Dr.Grinch]

Has anyone been accepted from the WL recently?

 

[DocPluto]

Has anyone been accepted from the WL recently?

I'm not sure anyone has been accepted yet. From what I heard they were going to start offering "mid may." Since they sent that email about confirming interest in April my guess is maybe that means next week? Not sure - I guess we'll see.

 

[tonychopper]

Got off the waitlist earlier today!

 

[DocPluto]

I was driving at work today and got a phone call and voicemail from a 561 number thinking it was FAU and it was just spam 🥲 every time my phone rings it's stressing me out! Congrats to anyone that has gotten off the waitlist so far and good luck to everyone else on it!

I feel the same way!!

 

[DocPluto]

Just got another email asking me to confirm if I'm still interested in remaining on the WL.

 

[Dr.Grinch]

For accepted students, here is the link to the groupme that @chessmaster1234 started a while ago.
