2023-2024 Waitlist Manifestations

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Manifesting that delayed CTEs this year mean June is the new May for us WL folks
Some delayed CTE's are from over-subscription (hoping that folks get a chance to go somewhere else...).🙁

Ouch. Would you say that at this point, most places are basically in a one out, one in system then? (if that, because of over-subscription)
 
Delayed CTE is more likely due to over-filling than under-filling.
But why would it be such a widespread issue? I know you mentioned that the Cali schools are more your specialty. I’ve seen a ton people on WLs for different schools say that their schools typically have had many drops by now yet at the moment there have been basically no reported movement. It can’t be that ALL these schools have overaccepted right?

Strategically, there would be no reason for a school to extend CTE other than an over-filled class.
Early CTE dates are to lock folks in before other schools can poach them.

If there is no WL activity at this point, the only explanation is an over-filled (or exactly filled) class. It's remotely possible that they landed on exactly the number needed and no one has been poached.

is there usually some movement in June?
Last year I saw two different days in June that had movement on Sdn. This year is weird though the school had way more applicants than usual so we don’t know how many people are on the WL. In the past, everyone who did not get off of DD went to WL, but this year they did some rejections off of the DD list in April.
 
How do you know how filled your school is?
Someone mentioned the # of accepted students in the groupme (you need amcas ID to enter). The groupme is mostly incoming student, and a few upperclassmen and the number is realllly close to the close size
 
My one waitlisted school seems full... no movement for weeks. So I have officially given up and am focusing on reapplying. Thank you to everyone on this page for all the positive energy~ congrats to those who got in and good luck to those who are still waiting!
 
Written for us by ChatGPT.

In the dance of fate, we stand, hearts heavy, yet resilient, Bound by the thread of dreams, in this journey transcendent. Though some have found their wings, soaring to the sky, We, the steadfast, still linger, under the same hopeful eye.

In the halls of learning, where knowledge intertwines, We've treaded paths, adorned with hopes and signs. With each rejection, a seed of doubt may grow, Yet within us, the ember of hope continues to glow.

For in this liminal space, where patience is our guide, We find solace in knowing, our dreams still reside. Though the wait may test our resolve, and time may seem unkind, In the tapestry of destiny, our destinies align.

So let us gather, in this digital embrace, Sharing stories of resilience, with courage interlaced. For in unity, our strength is found, as we journey hand in hand, Toward the horizon of possibilities, where hope forever stands.

Though shadows may linger, and doubts may arise, Let faith be our compass, guiding us to the prize. For in the end, whether our names are called or not, Our journey, our perseverance, defines the lessons taught.

So let hope be our anthem, in this waiting game we play, For in the silence of anticipation, our spirits shall not sway. For in the end, whether we fly or we stay, Our journey, our dreams, pave the way.
 
Manifesting/praying/hoping/willing to get off the UICOM waitlist this week. Not sure if there will be anymore movement this month so it’s time to move on. Starting to fill out necessary paperwork for my committed school. Hoping that once I mentally accept my fate then I may be happily surprised by UICOM. hard to accept that things are out of our control at this point, but maybe it’s for the best. Good luck guys, I think I’ll be logging off for a while. I need a break from compulsively checking sdn. 🙏🏼🤞🏼🫶🏼
