unsure of how long the process of renting a house actually takes.

Literally. I wish schools would have an ounce of transparency. This whole cycle:

I would love to go to this school
*ok here’s an interview
Amazing did I get in?
*no you’re waitlisted
Oh great how many people usually get off the WL
*sorry can’t tell you that
Ok what’s my WL rank?
*sorry can’t tell you that
Ok when do you start pulling off the WL
*sorry can’t tell you that

Like 😭😭😭

Has anyone else had dreams about getting accepted to med school even though they don't have any acceptances? I had a dream like that last night and it's the third one I've gotten like what sort of sick prank is this

Haha sameee I day dream about it all the time then snap back to reality and feel upset lol

yeah lol I dreamed I got an A call then got waitlisted when I woke up 🙁
 
I just got the A 😭 crying and shaking right now and so grateful to God. This thread has been so helpful and I pray for each and every one of you on the WL that you end up where you are meant to be 💙
Lets goo!! Congrats! I am positive that yesterday you felt hopeless just like I do right now ha! Maybe it is still possible for all of us.

So I just received an email saying I was automatically removed from Sam
Houston's Waitlist because I have a podiatry acceptance? I was under the impression that Holding an acceptance offer and a waitlist offer was not a contradiction and that students were not forced to choose by the deadline unless it was two contradicting acceptance offers. Am I a blithering idiot or is this some kind of mistake?

How did they even know that you had a podiatry acceptance? You should call them, that doesn’t make sense right? AMCAS allows you to hold onto WLs even if you have another A…

If they are both TMDSAS schools, you may be hitting the May 15 rule that no new WL offers can go out to those holding a TMDSAS acceptance.
Texas has only had a podiatry school for 2 years, so this may be the first time this situation has come up.
Write to TMDSAS or message them in your portal to ask.
 
I contacted them just in time. IT was a mistake! Received an email just a second ago. WHEW, i was about to faint lol.

"Thank you for contacting us regarding your waitlist update. I apologize for this error and I have reinstated your accepted waitlist offer. The offers from the UTRGV School of Podiatric Medicine are located right next to the medical school offers on the spreadsheet we receive from our TMDSAS portal, so I accidentally lumped you in with the other medical school offers for waitlisted applicants.

Once again, I apologize for this error and appreciate your patience! "

FYI: I also found out that their final offer date is 7/24/24.
 
Kinda in the same boat as the last guy, but I have been drinking beer, buying modded controllers, and also I deleted social media over a year ago, but drake totally won the drake vs. Kendrick beef, family matters is way better than the song euphoria
Pshah, you may like the beat better but the disses go so much harder in Kendrick's plus add in 6.16 in LA, and Not like us and Kendrick takes the belt.
 
I guess the admissions committees got an early jump on Memorial Day weekend.
We're academics. Of course, we take the month of May/June off for Memorial Day weekend (and return to campus for Orientation).

Unless the Dean wants us to show up for Commencement in regalia. 😉

The rest of the staff needs the vacation before we work on Orientation. Or next cycle's application screening.
 
currently waiting on 2 WLs. the school I'm currently PTE at has their CTE deadline june 1st, but the WL schools are june 15... not sure how to navigate that if anyone has any advice
i am in a similar boat. don’t know if it’s worth telling the later CTE schools about the upcoming CTE for the school you’re accepted at now.

The school that has accepted you may require that you CTE and withdraw from other waitlists.

There’s really nothing to navigate right now

If you have a second offer before June 1 be ready to decide quickly
If you are still ON WLs, there must be something you prefer about those schools to your current one, right?
If you were offered a place right now, with no knowledge about FA, would you stay or go?

These are the questions to answer, to yourself, and if nothing happens before June 1 then CTE to your current acceptance

Anyone else stressing about the timeline for moving, getting an apartment, etc? I'm moving out-of-state and will have to drive for three days. I don't even know where I'm going yet!!! And I'm bringing a dog and a spouse!
Yup. I’m really nervous about this. Idk what I’d do if I find a roommate and sign a lease and then get off my WL last second. Really hoping for my top choice to pan out. PLEASE NYMC!!!!
