Nope I've kinda already accepted that the class is probably full by now. I'm just grateful I already have an A elsewhere

The rolling financial aid delays caused by FAFSA issues mean that students with multiple offers are likely holding out to see which school gives them the most money. This means that spots for folks on the waitlist are not opening as soon as they would have in other years. I think it's more likely that significant movement hasn't started yet.

Worth mentioning - SUNY Upstate just sent out an email to WL’d applicants stating that their class was basically full (slightly overfilled actually)
Also worth mentioning that i was told WL movement would begin end of this week/start of next week (yet other have already claimed to been moved off)
I’d wager this — if by middle to end of next week we don’t hear anything, the class might be filled up

I called and they said the waitlist was currently moving, but I agree with your timeline

Hell nawl I've accepted that their class is prob full by now
Crazy that both Hofstra and Stony Brook had basically 0 waitlist movement

I find it strange that many people earlier in the thread widthrew their As and no waitlist movement. I’m not too familiar with the process so was wondering do schools usually give more As then seats?
They do. Maybe stony overfilled this cycle?
That's what I'm thinking. They probably accepted more students so they wouldn't have to pull from waitlist

If I am looking at the right FB group, it seems like they are at 171 total members and 7+ people joined within the last week-- not that this is indicative of much since a lot of the people could be current students, but it is not looking promising for WL for a class of around 136 :.)

Thank you!!
Nope! Interviewed in mid nov and then got placed on regular wl in dec! I just feel like everyone who got placed on the wl later in the cycle got HPWL distinction if they had it, and they didn’t do the same for ppl who got waitlisted earlier. I don’t know for sure at all just my inference from reading what ppl have said in the past on here!
Did you send any updates or letter of intent?
I sent one letter of intent beginning of Feb and then another update/LOI in April I believe

Per MSAR it’s June 17 2024
Got reply this morning that movement was still happening, but who knows how much

Imo it would be wise to begin committing to your A now, and treat potential WL movement as a pleasant surprise
But wouldn't I be burning bridges if I commit and then say I can't go

There will almost certainly be a wave of waitlist offers after the CTE deadline, which is on Monday.

was thinking the same, people still holding multiple acceptances will be forced to drop
People are still holding multiple A’s? I thought most people had to choose 1 for PTE by now

people are supposed to PTE at 1 school by now, but it’s not a hard deadline it seems, especially with the fafsa delays this year

If there’s no movement tomorrow it’s safe to say that there will be no more movement this cycle

I'd give it until the end of the week. They need to sort through everyone who dropped offers today and since Wednesday is off, it might take them a couple of days. After Friday, though, it's probably cooked.

People were holding their A's right up to the CTE deadline and were forced to drop. As I predicted, the game hadn't started until Monday. We're off to the races, folks!

Nope
Nope :/ my CTE deadline is approaching soon for Upstate 😂
FYI - from AMCAS - "By selecting "Commit to Enroll," I am indicating that I have made my final selection and withdrawn all other applications, including waitlist positions."
Looks that way. Rip the WL

U can call and ask about WL movement. U dont have to give them ur name if u dont want to. The problem is u can get a different answer depending on who picks up
I just called them and they said there is still movement but that is all they can say at this time. Im taking all their answers with a grain of salt now lol

“There is still movement” probably just means “technically a position can open up at any time from now until the first day of classes” which is probably the more useless information we could have lmao
