Anyone know when they send official groupme/Fb group info so we can ask current students questions?
does anyone know if they accept another letter of rec if you are on waitlist?
Anyone know if people who get off wl have generally been those who sent letters of intent or does it not rlly matter
According to previous years, it seems like the WL movement in March was mostly based on PSTP applicants who were wait-listed to the regular MD programApparently in previous years Pitt waitlist movement started as soon as March. Has anyone called or emailed the admissions office to see if they expect to admit people off the waitlist before May?
*if not I’ll do it lol
This is prob true, ik someone who was accepted of wl not too long ago for thisAccording to previous years, it seems like the WL movement in March was mostly based on PSTP applicants who were wait-listed to the regular MD program
Sorry if it is a dumb question, but what do you mean by second look?I heard from someone that Pitt is gonna send financial aid packages to students this coming week (4/8-4/12). Anyone have an idea as to what day they're likely to come? Second look at Pitt is this Friday (4/12) and I don't plan on going if they give me a poor package. Thus, I hope we get our packages earlier in the week...
'Second Look' is an in person, on campus event that most medical schools offer, to give you an idea of what attending med school there would be like. Usually offered when their cycle has concluded and most acceptances have been extended.Sorry if it is a dumb question, but what do you mean by second look?
So, they probably already gave most acceptances from the waitlist too?'Second Look' is an in person, on campus event that most medical schools offer, to give you an idea of what attending med school there would be like.

My understanding is that most acceptances off of the waitlist are offered after May 1st. (After all applicants narrow their acceptances to one by April 30th)So, they probably already gave most acceptances from the waitlist too?
yesFor those on the WL, did anyone else's application status change to "Your MD application is complete and under review"?
Probably reading too much into it, but some of my WL friends don't see a change in their portal
i’m not going to check the portal. i’m not going to check the portal. really, i’m not.
Mine has changed. Anyone know if this has happened in previous years? Didn't see anything in last year's thread about it.For those on the WL, did anyone else's application status change to "Your MD application is complete and under review"?

I poured my entire heart and soul into a letter of intent after being WL'd, sent an update letter back in the fall before decisionsFor those with a status change, did you submit any new updates after your initial decision?
I haven’t personally no. Sent one update letter in jan right before decisions but nothing since. i can’t imagine there’s enough spots open yet to start accepting off wl tho?For those with a status change, did you submit any new updates after your initial decision?

Sent an update letter and an LOIFor those with a status change, did you submit any new updates after your initial decision?
Yeah I don’t know if this is a “you have the spot in the bag” thing or a “we’re just looking back over WL apps” thing, could be either but it doesn’t matter because we most likely won’t find out until May anyway (or i’m just coping)Ok I sent one in January too but no status change. I’m not sure, in previous years they accepted off the waitlist as early as March. By April 15 there should be people dropping off since that’s the 3 school deadline. So they could be reviewing apps now in preparation?
Mine just changed back to the waitlist message that was there before.
That's my thoughtOk ok thanks for saying that. So maybe it just says it’s in review when they literally open your application to review it?
+1 mine just reverted back as well, so weird so I guess just means it’s actively being reviewedMine just changed back to the waitlist message that was there before. So maybe they are just reviewing apps? Hopefully reassuring for those that didn't see the status change since it may have happened for a brief window earlier and would be easy to miss.

I called yesterday and they said they will start reviewing now in April, so they might be starting, but no A has been sent to WL.I called admissions a couple of weeks ago and they said they were going to start looking at WL applicants in early April!! Might start sending out As soon!
I called admissions and they said it’s just an IT glitchFor those on the WL, did anyone else's application status change to "Your MD application is complete and under review"?

For those who have withdrawn, are there any specific reasons why you have decided to train elsewhere?
