It’s way more like that a lot more As have been given out than ~300. It’s the very end of the cycle, almost every school has sent out the vast majority of their As. There will likely be a handful or 2 of more acceptances because of students who decide not to attend last minute. But most students who are holding onto this acceptance this late in the cycle are attending. They would’ve released their A weeks ago if not.
wait should we call the office and inquire on waitlist admissions?
Yea you’re right actually. There’s probably much more than 270 offers made. Plus the people in that are not all accepted students from this cycle. I don’t know what proportion of them are not admitted students.
i would call but they are not answering calls. Not sure what happened to them
Been hoping the same for the past 16 weeks too… tbh losing hope now. The school seriously needs to reconsider its stance on putting a lot of people on the waitlist and then not sending any timely communication with such applicants. In fact, I heard they put nearly everyone on the waitlist after an interview which is really fustrating, like just reject me if there isn’t a match, dang!!
They’re protecting their yield. By basically stashing students on the waitlist. Makes sense from their perspective. Sucks for us though.
If you don’t mind sharing, how much time did they give you to decide whether to accept or decline the offer? Just trying to gauge if they are still giving applicants 2 weeks to decide or not…
I had 6 days
Thanks for sharing!! Much appreciated !!
I lost hope for this school iwl
Same, I would’ve called too but I’ve already sent a lot of stuff already (because I’ve had additional activities/publications/research stuff) that I’ve communicated. Can someone call and, if possible, try to extort some information tho?? If anyone does please please share because radio silence from this school is ridiculous…
I can call, any specific information you want or just general stuff
Thank you, you’re a legend! Nope, just any thing you’re comfortable asking. Although what I would circle around if I was calling myself is if a) the admissions committee is still meeting regularly and b) if some seats are still open (as in offers were made to some people, and they haven’t committed yet). But again, I’d rather you ask questions you are comfortable asking rather than force feed my question.
thanks for sharing!
Damn, that sucks
Just to share, I did email them some time back and they did say the chances of getting off the waitlist were considerable (as a fair reminder before withdrawing) but idk atp this school is gaslighting me so hard lol. Either way, I’m not about to mess up my mental health by checking this page every hour and I’m moving on to focus on submitting my application on time (unlike last year) and I wish all of you the best of luck!🫡
Best of luck man, I’ve also submitted my reapp. We’ll be back and we’ll be stronger 💪
Yea, unfortunately I don’t think this is unique to this school tho. Feel like most schools keep students on the WL in a weird limbo state until they r rejected or the cycle ends. But I guess they kinda were transparent, as they told someone yesterday the class is full and anymore movement is unlikely.
I think that was a typo, because there's an increase in average every year so it doesn't make sense for there to be a drop that year
Thanks for sharing, was just checking if I shot myself in the foot here lol. Best of luck in med school (if you accepted)!
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT?!? I assumed the waitlist was opt-out, not opt-in. I have no idea how this was miscommunicated but either way I feel awful.
The waitlist was opt-out. U were put on the WL unless u asked not to be.
Nope lol
Not me lol. Just prewriting TF out of secondaries getting ready for my inbox to be flooded on Friday.
Orientation starts Monday, the 7th, right? Is it the start of orientation or the end that marks the end their cycle? I'm not really holding out hope, but it'd be nice to have a hard deadline.
At what time did you receive it? I haven't gotten anything yet.
