got 4 of their end of month news letters just for them to never send me an II, sounds about right lol...

 

[Purplekitty111]

I only got August and September newsletters 🙁

 

[sarcasmrules]

You guys can unsubscribe to their news letters. It's at the bottom of the email. I haven't had to deal with that in months.

Poetically enough, I DM'd the mod that the bigotry of the left is what caused this red wave, so they should enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Let’s just try to keep this thread on topic guys

has anyone tried sending an update letter even though they DONT accecpt them?

would not recommend sending an update, as they specifically stated that they don't accept them.

send it in a dream like in inception. incept it




(they just politely decline it's fine but not worth the effort) (i forgot to check whether they accept them)

did u end up getting a II?

 

[berryfairy3]

When does AL movement start here? If 80% of the class comes from the AL then when are they going to start updating us?

 

[bassoony]

I got an II in late Sept, and it opens up a short section on the portal which allows you to update! the update I'm referring to there was post-II and you immediately get an auto-kickback email that says the office doesn't accept updates

 

[grizzlybear130]

Is the student panel discussion just casual attire?

They said there's a lot of movement in April and again in June

[kettlecorn_]

+1 OOS AL earlier today. Interviewed 1/20

 

[na11111]

Anyone else still waiting without any update?

 

[VINILOVER123]

I feel like they should just transition to a non rolling admissions at this point,

 

[Somewhat Hopeful Pre-Med]

OOS II received last night! Secondary submitted on 07/10/24.

 

[juicy_scooby]

Last year several folks reported coming off the AL around mid Feb. Here's a link

So hoping we see a bit of movement starting middle of this month. Maybe more in March.

No clue how they really use the AL. Seems like they want to get a big pool of maybes and then rank internally and start giving out A's to the top of that list, saving some room for standouts in later interviews. Very opaque admissions process, but what else is new.

Here's hoping we see some movement soon! First person off the AL please post here 😎

I actually meant no II, no hold, no rejection at all LOL

 

[Robertomunoz743]

OOS II received three days ago.

 

[lowstressmed]

What is an AL?

 

[bassoony]

What is an AL?

Alternate List! It's the waitlist (though at Albany odds are like 50/50 on the Alternate List and 80+% of the incoming class comes from it)

 

[Agape_ornis]

Withdrew my A. Good luck everyone🤞

 

[Dream cake]

OOS A!! I'm sobbing. This is my first A. I can't believe it 😭

 

[premed2024_123456]

Same here! I can't believe it

 

[premed2024_123456]

If we are still waiting on other schools, can we accept the A but still be waiting?

 

[scientisticy5325]

OOS A

 

[scientisticy5325]

If we are still waiting on other schools, can we accept the A but still be waiting?

yes, it is non-binding

 

[Bubs22]

Congrats you guys!!! Are these off the AL or straight after interview?

 

[Somewhat Hopeful Pre-Med]

I have my interview scheduled in about a week. Are there any interview tips from those who have been accepted

 

[scientisticy5325]

Straight from interview for me

 

[frenchie456]

+1 AL today but I'm giving up my spot
