could send them a letter of intent to state that this is your first choice and will attend if offered an acceptance

i was thinking of this already, how soon do you think i should send one?

I don’t think they send rejections post-II, but not sure

 

[prayingeveryday]

I don’t think they send rejections post-II, but not sure

that could mean that their waitlist is like 400+ kids bc they send about 600 II😭

 

[cookiemonster278]

So, according to admit, they give 567 interviews and accept 355, however I don’t know if the post WL acceptances are incorporated in the 355

 

[bur_covery]

unless you have a big update coming soon (like a paper getting published or smth), I would send it as soon as possible since we don't know when decisions are coming out.

IS A on 3/6; interviewed 2/26. There is still hope for people yet to interview, they are still offering acceptances at this point in the cycle. I’m hoping for the best for everyone on the WL, keep ur heads up and send those letters of intent!

Hard to say cause it's difficult to judge yourself objectively... I feel like interviewing in person definitely helped, but I'm also very passionate about all my activities and came into my interviews confident and prepared. Didn't shy from making jokes and just tried to be myself. Went on many tangents with my interviewers about shared interests and probably spent about quarter of each interview just shooting the **** about things minorly, or not at all, related to medicine. Made an effort to remember pleasantries (asking how their day's been, thanking them for opening doors, thanking them for their time, etc.). Asked really good questions at the end of the interview. You get the interviewers' names in advance, so I spent time thinking of questions that would be informative for me and get them thinking; both of my interviewers commented on this.

That being said, I'm squarely above the average stat range for accepted students at UB, so that may have helped. I also have few ties to the area but demonstrated reasons that their school is a good fit. Did not send thank you letters.

 

[fatbubble]

Any news?

 

[cookiemonster278]

Any news?

Doesn’t look like it. I think they’ll be releasing the next round of decisions first week of April, like they did in February and March

 

[moooink]

Anyone get their financial aid package yet?

 

[modernfamilyluver]

Anyone get their financial aid package yet?

no. when did u submit it?

[modernfamilyluver]

when did they start pulling from teh WL last year?
also does anyone have any insight as to what % of the WL gets an A?

It seems like they started April 1st, but with the majority starting May 1st. They didn't release any data on what % of the WL gets accepted, but I heard that Buffalo has good waitlist movement (hopefully it is good this cycle), but it varies every year.

[prayingeveryday]

The accepted class group chat is still less than 70 so I’m going to assume it’s actually around 80/85! PLEASEE WAITLIST SAVE ME

we will all get in🤞🏽🥲

 

[cheesegirlpuff]

does anyone know when we can expect to hear about scholarship stuff?

 

[deleted1172617]

And it looks like they started to release decisions earlier so hopefully the movement is big in April!!

Hoping we hear positive news soon!

 

[deleted1172617]

Good luck to everyone interviewing this week! It’s the last interview week I think !

Pretty sure yesterday was the last day of interviews!

hypothetical: waitlisted, LOI sent, already movement on the WL and don’t hear for a while, how wise would it be to contact the school to show continued interest wo being overboard?
