that’s honestly ridiculous. insane that they plan to let us know weeks before school starts. as an OOS applicant, i would have to uproot my entire life in 2 weeks… this whole system needs a reboot tbh

its so crazy, I sat at a seminar for another school earlier this week and they said the "best advice we can give to incoming students is to be prepared don't wait until orientation to familiarize yourself with where you'll be living and be ready to start" and then someone asked about the WL and they were like we hope we don't have to accept people the week of orientation but we cannot 100% say we will close the WL late June. like what

Do we think they sent out like too many acceptances or something? I feel like the admissions tracker hasn’t seemed like a way higher number or anything since last year though

Agreed! I’d definitely encourage others to call about their questions because 1) it’s better than driving yourself crazy with speculation and 2) even if they don’t answer your questions specifically, I think it’s important to demand schools to be more transparent

Their deadline to admitted students was yesterday at noon, so they only got an actual idea of what their current class size is like yesterday. Best case scenerio, the committee met today about what do to with the left over seats and will start handing them out soon. I work at a hospital/medical school and nothing ever moves that fast here though hahaha. Hopefully they meet soon. Having a hard deadline for admitted students this week means the gears have probably started to move again. Just gotta hang tight.

 

[Aundercoverdoc]

We have to keep in mind that some of the admitted students might be WLed elsewhere too. So there's a possibility a few will drop their A

Tbh, rolling admissions is a wack system. Just switch back to the undergrad model. Reserve a set number of months of accepting and reviewing apps, a set number of months to invite and interview students, and then one big final date to release decisions.

Any WL movement at all so far?

 

[bigdogliv]

I haven't heard anything

 

[Aundercoverdoc]

Ngl, I have lost hope bc it seems like last year they had a decent amount of WL movement

 

[SpicyHotSauce]

Yeah, and the WL movement on last year's thread started on May 2. We're on May 14 now 🤧

 

[Strikethrower25]

Most schools are on a multiple week delay this year

 

[bigdogliv]

there also hasn't been any movement from the other school I'm WL for so it isn't just here

true, but WSU starts in a month and a half, the time is getting tighter as the days go by :/

Still time to get going!

yeah they can send acceptances the week of orientation

 

[GrinderKanzas28]

yeah they can send acceptances the week of orientation

Them: Can you make it before first week of classes?

Me: If you let me live in the hospital for free, we might have a deal

 

[donc je suis]

Does anyone know the dates for orientation?

 

[Aqua Life]

I called the office and they confirmed that there should be more movement after the CTE deadline (June 10th). I feel like I’m in purgatory

this is a joke lol

 

[Pre-med111]

the official group chat has 271 members (only admitted students can join). I am not sure how accurate this number is, but if it is, there is some hope y'all!

 

[BenzeneToluene]

Also keep in mind that a few of the students are current med students as well. People leave the chat quite often, so there’s definitely bound to be some more movement!

Looking more like I'll be living at Henry Ford Hospital for my first year heh

 

[premed314314]

So if the other school that I'm holding an acceptance at also has their CTE deadline for June 10th, Wayne is basically out of the picture then if they aren't going to have any WL movement before that?

 

[Southapple]

I just withdrew today, hope it goes to one of you!

 

[Fishy23]

Did they give you a deadline for when you had to withdraw?

 

[Southapple]

I got off WL at another school!

 

[frozensharkbait]

Dang I read this too fast and for a second thought that WL movement started at Pain state 💔

 

[arya1967]

How do you withdraw an A? Can you let me the process?

 

[lmad48]

When did the most movement happen last year?

 

[toadandfrog]

How do you withdraw an A? Can you let me the process?

This is what I did:
Accept the A from the school I want to attend, send an email to the other school’s admissions office letting them know I’m withdrawing my A, switch my PTE in the CYMS site to the new school.

Thank you.

Another radio silent week 😭

 

[thetopraman]

How are we basically at the end of May and no waitlist movement so far based on SDN...

 

[lmad48]

Memorial Day Weekend gift pls admin 😭

 

[buckiii]

Got into an instate school, so I won't be waiting around to hear from Wayne. Really dissapointing they'd wait until just a few weeks before classes to start pulling off a WL. I'll be just next door in Toledo, so I hope I get to run into some of you during rotations in the area! Good luck in Detroit everyone!

 

[thetopraman]

I know especially for OOS students. I’m waiting for a response on this school and an IS one. If I end up getting accepted here (Praying I do) I don’t know how I’m gonna move so quickly lol

 

[cheetopuff]

When do you guys think they're going to start pulling off the WL if they are at all? After the CTE date?

 

[bigdogliv]

yeah Wayne moved their campus to remote operations the last 2 days due to protests and an encampment on main campus so I'm not expecting any work to get done this week

 

[lmad48]

When the new cycle starts before you know if you need to reapply 😳😬
