Manifesting that we’ll hear some good news after this weekend!

 

[jack lock]

Is there no groupme for Howard

 

[DrCat0316]

For those accepted, has Howard provided your financial aid packages yet? Or have they extended their CTE again? I know the school has the right to rescind offers on and after June 12, 2024.

 

[whin900.]

So is this “big movement” still gonna happen or… did more people commit to Howard than expected this year? 😭

 

[Beyhive21]

did anyone attend the second look on Friday?

 

[strawberrychai]

Just received an offer off the waitlist!

Yea idk, I’m still hoping they’re just unorganized. Imma try to call again but they just never answer.

[camindie]

has anyone on the WL emailed to check in? i’m thinking of maybe sending one

 

[jack lock]

Last year on June 6th, there was a wave…hopefully yall on waitlist get smth

 

[SOtheProdigy]

For those who got accepted, did they sent you guys the academic calendar for the 24-25 year or the important dates (orientation, first day of classes, white coat ceremony, etc). It would be good to know for those still on the WL! 🙏🏾

Has anyone been able to reach the office? I know some people tried to leave a vm. Did the office follow up with you?

 

[whin900.]

So is it over for us on the waitlist? 🙂‍↕️ The Facebook group is only at 113 so I’m going to continue to be hopeful.

 

[MedSchoolWarrior]

Keep encouraged!! After June 12 maybe get a little more worried but we can still get in if orientation hasn't started. What is everyone on the WL doing to cope?

I wouldn’t lose hope. 2 weeks ago, the accepted FB group had 134 members, and the total number of accepted members from HUCM’s previous classes had approximately 160-170 members. This must mean that there are more seats to be filled imo. I do not think the big wave of WL movement has happened yet. The question is if accepted members received their FA package and if HUCM may have extended their date to rescind offers (06/12 to another date).

That could be possible. Thank you for this.

I just came off the waitlist this Monday afternoon. I am incredibly happy at the moment! I’ve been waiting for this day since I applied. God is great!!!!
My LizzyM score was a 62.50 (won’t give any more metrics) but I had a lot of volunteer, research, and clinical experience! I hope you all come off the waitlist too!

I was wondering the same thing. From what I was told by admissions, accepted students received their FA packages last week. Anyone know if they have extended the date to rescind offers?

I have received FA offer yet, and i don’t think they extended the date to rescind offers.

No info on # students matriculating or if students are accepted off the waitlist. Nobody mentions them being accepted off WL

 

[whin900.]

Thanks for the information. Sure wish we could get some type of word from them.

Is Howard still interviewing?

 

[FutureDocJ_]

Is there a groupme for accepted students? If there is, can someone please send me the link? Thanks

Is it time to lose hope for the WL?

Has anyone received a ejection yet from the waitlist?

I’m not completely sure how it works but I don’t think anyone will actually get a rejection until after orientation.

 

[yerr]

I wish they stopped giving WL applicants a false sense of security, they almost guarantee everyone at their events that they’ll eventually get off and it’s quite misleading

They just teasing everyone. Unless they have no admin or upperclassmen in the fb group, yall have a chance

 

[jack lock]

just received a rejection, no ii

[Mormedicine]

I got off the WL 6/18. LizzyM score 66. OOS applicant. Praying there is more movement soon!!!

 

[camindie]

i may be reaching for a pattern here but so far all of the WL acceptances in this thread have been on a monday, except for the most recent someone got in last tuesday (6/18). so maybe good news today?

Manifesting some acceptances this week 🙏

 

[pararasund22]

anybody hear anything?

 

[lovelylotus]

I spoke to someone in admissions who said this year’s process has been uncharacteristically slow. They have only taken about 60 ppl off of the WL; whereas, last year they would have already accepted 200 ppl from WL by now. They are thinking that the class is about full now, but they said they thought that last week before more spots opened. I wish that they had been more upfront in their communication in the past months, but it sounds like admissions is genuinely surprised themselves at how things have played out. Apparently there are a lot of people still on the WL, so maybe knowing that this has been a frustrating situation for most will make it feel less personal.
I had to remove my name off the WL, but I sincerely hope those of you waiting see more movement. Manifesting good things for you guys!
