In state, non SDA, I'm very happy to announce that after all of this time, I still haven't heard anything and I'm losing my mind. Thank you.

Finally pre-II R

 

[medschoolpleasee]

Got the R this morning after being WL 🙁

 

[Deggroll]

Rather take the R than be ghosted. Though it does hurt a little that I wasn't even considered for the II since I literally live 5 mins away. GG LL

how is that possible? do you mean before being WL?

 

[medschoolpleasee]

Nope haha I was waitlisted in April.

that’s crazy. What did it say, if you don’t mind my asking?

 

[medschoolpleasee]

I got an email saying a decision had been made on my application, followed by a “we cannot offer you an acceptance for this years entering class”.

Huh, that’s odd, I’m so sorry. I had never heard of a R off a WL before. In all honesty, I hope you’re able to find peace with the decision given that you can finally move on and stop wondering if they’ll ever communicate with us like the rest of us here.

Yeah, I thought the same. Thank you, and good luck to you guys!! 🙂)

there is one! you should have received a link to the Facebook from them through email!

 

[anxiousardvark]

Somebody must have heard something by now right

 

[josephpoolpo]

is there any SDA applicant here that got into this med school that I can DM?

Usually, the class above you makes one. If not, I'd make one for your class.

Unless there is another new scholarship? I think they might be referring to the IEHP Health Scholars scholarship, which is not based on being SDA or URM. You receive the scholarship if you agree to stay in the Inland Empire for ~5 years after residency. This is offered to you in your 1st year, usually towards the end. Also, if you are in the AdventHealth Orlando or Kettering Ohio program you will most likely not be eligible.

This is incorrect. It’s not IEHP. They call it they’re pay it forward scholarship. Only offered to SDA students. I have multiple friends who received it.

Also just an encouragement to WL students. I was in your shoes 4 years ago. Got pulled off the waitlist three weeks before I was supposed to move and go to another med school. I completely changed plans and went to Loma on the other side of the country.

It’s hard to wait and then get pulled last min. You might feel that you are a second rate student or not good enough, but you are. Just takes things on day at a time! I’m now graduated going to a top notch anesthesia program. It’ll all work out, just keep pushing. I believe in you all!

Bet yeaaaaa they emailed out that scholarship to our whole class during the 2nd year lmao. Didn't know it was offered at the beginning of med school haha.

 

[anxiousardvark]

They're really putting the wait in waitlist.

Did you commit to another school and then get pulled of the WL after? My CTE deadline is July 1st at another school but I’m tryna still see my chances here

The Facebook invite comes via email from admissions. Congrats on being accepted. Did you get in during July? What a Hail Mary, if that's the case. Seriously, congrats.

Thank you!! Much appreciated. This cycle has been a rollercoaster to say the least lol.

Quick question: I'm having a hard time finding out from the website and such how the grading system is for the medical school. Do you know if the first 2 years are Pass/NoPass?

Yes, the first two years are P/F for preclinical, then it's H/HP/P/F for clerkships. No internal ranking among students.
