they’re truly sticking by the 492 minimum which i like! i feel like some schools will say “500 minimum” but won’t even look at a student with a 500

it’s nice to see a school caring more about the people behind the applications than just numbers for sure

Did anyone else get an email for a survey on why they chose not to attend this school? Made it seem like I would have been accepted if I ranked it higher

it’s probably sent to any student accepted to a higher ranked school to see why they didn’t rank UTT higher

As a surprise to many including myself, I just sent in my acceptance decline email to UTT. I definitely cried doing it, but I hope my seat goes to one of y'all on SDN! Still, feel free to reach out if you have any Tyler related questions 🤍

Wow! where are you headed?

Utah! Gotta relearn how to ski after 7 years in Texas.

Congrats on making your decision Cranberry, I know that was a difficult one for you. You've been a great resource for everyone in this thread!

Additionally, I also withdrew my acceptance to UTT a few weeks ago. Some spots up for grabs, so don't lose hope SDNers!

Any waitlist movement that anyone knows about?

Ooo la la, I'm gonna have to reschedule my interview at Harvard for a detour down to Tyler. I'll expect the program director to meet me at the hospital's doors without prior notice of me coming

Not sure how that helps with their primary care mandate..

I've never gotten the sense they were against non primary care fields. No reason to force people to drive to Dallas for a derm appointment if you can get one in east Texas.

I think their mandate is more doctors who will practice in east Texas.

The hospital doesnt currently have derm or is it that they will have an expanded team if they have a residency?

Nah, this is gold. This took the cake

hey skin care is very important, esp in this heat

Genuinely curious, if my parents own a business in East Texas (I have for years been helping them run it and travel to east texas from where I live like once every other week) can I claim connection to east texas?

If so, which of these would be my status?

I have direct ties to the East Texas region (born, graduated high school, community college, undergraduate, etc.)
I have indirect ties to the East Texas Region (family members, in-laws, visited East Texas frequently, attended summer camp in East Texas, etc.)
I have ties to a rural region with similar characteristics to the East Texas region (size, demographics, health disparities, etc.)

The second one unless you graduated from HS there

 

[cranberrylimeade]

Up from 75% to 80% women this year with 85% of accepted students having ties!

Will UT Tyler be accepting a small class size again this year? I really want to go to this school (its in my top 3 TX schools due to location and population) but I know that not being directly tied to the school isnt working in my favor.

Yes, their class size will remain at 40 per year at least until they have reached the 4-year mark and graduated their first cohort of students.
After that their size will depend on how the school has been progressing towards full accreditation, and what number of students the professors and deans feel they can support and educate.
