Med School Insiders
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I will add as well, all my other schools either offered scholarships not contingent on FAFSA or they gave an estimated aid package based on the AMCAS app. I don’t think UW is in the minority unfortunately this cycle with this FAFSA delay. It has been a nightmare for every school I’ve talked to. Not to mention students who have to make a large financial decision entirely blind, but I will get off my soapbox .

I withdrew today, still no aid packages.

Thank you for being transparent. I know, at least for me if not others alike, it gives a little peace of mind that there is some movement. ADCOM just needs to update the application portal!!

Has there been reported movement already?

Congrats!!! Is this for Seattle? Waitlisted before #4, but haven't gotten a call yet so I can't help but feel a little nervous.

I believe they have your interviewer call you, so it may be very temporarily out of order until everyone's gotten to making the call!
 
Super specific question, but how long is the phone call usually and what do they go over?
 
Also, I have officially withdrawn from the Idaho cohort! Best of luck to everyone, and congratulations!

UWSOM’s portal says they’re on alternate #2. Would anyone know the reason for this discrepancy?

Not sure the reason behind it, but historically there seems to be a lag in the portal. It could be off significantly, based on the last few years on SDN. I wonder if it’s automated or manually inputted.
 
When I look at the "Alternate List Offer" tab, it still gives me the option to click submit and doesn't gray out the choices of decline/accept. However, there's also a message "Note: This page is completed". I'm a lil paranoid about this and was hoping to see if anyone else had the same issue? In AMCAS' CYMS, it does say I'm on UW's alternate list.

Mine says the same thing and I had the same double take. I think we’re good since it says “this page is completed” and that we can see the WL count. Also that we both had the same neurotic thought haha. It’s not the best webpage setup.
 
Anyone else sub-15 and still haven’t received the call? Congrats to everyone who’s been accepted already!

Update: The EXCOM who interviewed you is the one who calls for the acceptance. As others have mentioned, the order of calls may be very temporarily out of order (even by one day) for this reason due to the EXCOM's availability.

Right?! I'm glad I wasn't the only one haha this entire thing is STRESS INDUCING.
 
Glad to see the alternate list has at least reached the 16 mark. Hoping it keeps going at this rate! How are my fellow 30’s doing? Personally nervous and anxious :arghh:

Yep I don’t think they’ve stopped in the thirties for these past few years (before COVID). No foreseeable reason the trend would stop suddenly. Seems like the movement is substantial so far this year, You got dis!

Yall are so sweet. So difficult explaining the process to family and friends who haven’t gone through the same thing. Happy to see the supportive environment on here 🙂
 
Anyone know roughly how long it takes for the acceptance to show up as available on the CYMS tool? This was my only A, so the option to even use CYMS isn't open to me yet.
 
Has anyone from the Seattle cohort received an acceptance call today?
