Good luck with the financial aid. Your 2 admissions seem to be at 2 extreme ends.

I had the same question. I attended their re-applicant workshop. The way I understood it is that they are now on a rolling admission. On May 15th, which is the multiple offer deadline, they are expecting a lot of people to drop off. They are expecting a lot more movement from the waitlist from that day and moving forward. At least from what the lady from the admission office had said, they can still send out offers throughout the following month. That in previous years, they've sent out an offer the last day before their orientation/immersion day.
I think we will see the beginning of WL offers the last half of April if this year is like the last 5 years.
Did you match to another TMDSAS school but prefer Foster?
Yes I did
There is a deposit due on May 15th to keep a spot. Ideally, you should start making choices so that waitlisted folk can know what to do or so that you don't have to scramble later on. Hope this helps. Office of Admissions General Information | Texas Tech Health El Paso
Kind of an odd question: I was thinking about biking to school at least for the first 2 years if I live close enough - do you know if there are any indoor bike racks in any of the buildings?
I don't think there are any indoor bike racks. However, there are some on campus next to the main school buildings. I don't think it'll be an issue if you decide to take your bike inside for lecture though. I've seen boards and scooters inside.
Good to know, thanks! I guess I'll give it a shot. I would also consider getting a scooter - Is it pretty common for people to bring scooters and boards?
I wouldn't say it is common, but you do see a few of the same people do it. I imagine they live relatively close, because El Paso is not a very bike/scooter friendly city outside of the UTEP area. There's a pretty cool bike shop by UTEP called Crazy Cat Cyclery!
I was wondering the same. But I heard that this week is their graduation for the current MS4's and it is likely to be a slow week. Hopefully in the coming weeks we see more. I did look through this thread for last year's matriculating class and I only saw 4 people reported getting off of the waitlist. Now that is a low number but I am also praying for the fact that not everyone reports on SDN so maybe there were more. This was the similar situation for the incoming class before that. Their reports did, however, start back in april 2023...so that is a bit frustrating. Just gotta keep praying that accepted students get into their dream school so we can get into ours.
That may be true this far into the cycle, but this school historically has WL movement in June right up until orientation.
Yikes... Sounds like you don't handle rejection well. I hope you mature in med school, because it only gets more stressful from here.
What in tarnation
Rotations are primarily done at UMC and Texas Tech Physicians clinics. Occasionally you may be assigned to a community clinic for a shift or two. Some students will rotate at local affiliated hospitals and William Beaumont Army Medical Center, which is in Fort Bliss - about 20-30 minutes from the school. The school offers an optional rotation in San Angelo for those looking for something more rural. I believe the school will provide housing in San Angelo.

Thank you so much!2023-2024 Texas Tech El Paso (Foster)
Interview this Thursday 1/11! Any advice? It's MMI but pretty standard for mmi. Nothing to stress about. The interviewers are super nice and I thought it was overall a low stress day
