2023-2024 NYU (Grossman)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Sorry if this was already clarified before - but can you get accepted off the waitlist without sending a letter of intent? I know you need one if you are CTE somewhere else, but what if you are only PTE somewhere else??

Yes! The only reason you would need to send a letter of intent is if you know you will have to CTE or if you suspect you will have to CTE prior to the time NYU will be sending offers. If you are only PTE, and you know for a fact that it will stay that way, then there is no need to send a letter of intent and it will not affect your chances in any way.
 
Just curious, do you guys know which way you're leaning? For me NYU is my top choice, but I know that's not the case for absolutely everyone. Trying to gauge my WL chances and stay optimistic 😅
 
Did anyone else receive the A today?? do we think there will be more tomorrow?? I am soo anxious because this is my only possible A before reapplying so if anyone can give any information it would be so appreciated (maybe # of ppl that joined the accepted chat today)? thank you so much

I also got the A today off waitlist, I'm not in any chat yet so don't have any # to share from that though
 
I’m wondering why they don’t reject people on the waitlist, then
This is just a guess -- but if some people who have "planned to enroll" at NYU and are holding other waitlist spots, they may get accepted by another school and ditch. Then a spot would open and one of the NYU waitlists could get an offer. So, I'd guess NYU is holding out for cases like this.

But I say I suspect the class is filled because no people are entering/exiting the chat, and everyone is discussing move-in plans, filling out the required forms, etc.

Thank you so much for this information. Is the chat still over 100 or has it whittled down to 92 (only if you are comfortable sharing)? Sorry for all the questions, just as others mentioned it is super anxiety provoking to have little to no info 🙁

A filled class would be 92 MDs + and 10ish MD/PhDs, so it probably won’t drop much lower
 
They will know they would have filled up their entire class when their CTE numbers = class size

until then they need the waitlist incase someone drops their school to go to another school.



CTE = only one acceptance and dropped all waitlists/acceptances
PTE = only one acceptance as of May 10, but may remain on waitlists
 
I’m curious if people have been being removed from the waitlist. I’m still twiddling my thumbs hopefully.
 
If I just got three new pubs from a paper mill, do you think I should submit an update letter or is it too little too late at this point?
