umass got me dancing around a bon fire this past weekend praying

 

[king20]

I can definitely say umass admissions is the most toxic situationship I've been through and I know I'll reapply next year anyways...

 

[avoidingpurgatory]

Has anyone heard back? Maybe it’s no longer UMass Tuesdays 🗿I guess the only constant is Fridays

Nothing reported on admit/cycle track... I look like a lunatic refreshing the same 3 tabs over and over

Fb group now at 204 😭 F in the chat

Fb group now at 204 😭 F in the chat

Didn’t last years group have close to 300

 

[bracketlife]

Didn’t last years group have close to 300

It says 356 but no way they have 100+ spots to fill

Also if they want 225 students, would they have over 100 members that are admins and people from other classes? It just doesn’t seem right

Schools always give more acceptances than they have slots because they know not everyone will choose to go there

I would also like to note that they said at accepted students day that they overenrolled their current M1 class (class of 2028) and had some people from last year who deferred and will be entering the upcoming class of 2029. I am unsure by how much, but that would also explain very high #s from last years Facebook group.

I think like someone said before most likely this cycle will look like last with mostly WLs being given out the next three Fridays starting this week maybe? Then Rs at the very end and maybe As very sparsely distributed. Idk I could be very wrong but gl everyone and take care of yourselves the next couple weeks 😭

For the next 3 Umass Fridays if I get in I'm going to crush some beers and if I don't get in I'm still going to crush some beers so if you think about it it's a win win

 

[anonymous2025]

Hey guys gl to everyone! Idrk if decisions will be/have already been sent out but still

 

[vinnied86]

I think they're definitely waiting until some of the people they've already accepted either decline or accept their offers before giving anymore decisions.

 

[anonymous2025]

Ya I guess next week maybe idrk anymore but I’m trying to have fun before reality sinks in

 

[avoidingpurgatory]

I think they're definitely waiting until some of the people they've already accepted either decline or accept their offers before giving anymore decisions.

But 4/15 isnt a hard deadline…so this might not work out well bc people can hold their A’s until 4/30. So the only way this would work is if UMass puts ALMOST everyone on the WL by 4/30, as this would be like “we technically gave everyone a decision by April 30”

Then pull people off the WL as the admitted students have to commit to one school by 4/30 (or 5/1 idk)

This would make for a hellishly long waitlist probably and not the 150 that UMass projected on the MSAR / AAMC document about waitlist procedures. And 2-3 more months of being in limbo. And then finally, in late July or after classes start in August, people will get post-II R / post-WL R


Edit: or we all get rejected on 4/30 hahahahaha 🫠

 

[riceandchicken]

207, but this number will change over the next few days bc of the decisions sent out today id bet.

 

[anonymous2025]

We thinking that’s it for today cuz they don’t typically send decisions this late right?

 

[Shen_qingqiu]

Sure would hate it if the adcoms pranked us by sending more decisions (please) would definitely ruin my whole weekend if they gave me an A (I'm so close to crashing out)

 

[MYOsin_guy16]

I called today. I asked them if I haven't heard back from an interview in september should I take a hint that I'm going to get rejected. They said you will hear back by April 30th. Fantastic.

the classic... infuriating that they can do this to people

 

[Shen_qingqiu]

I'm trying to focus on my reapp but it's so hard not to be delusional when A's are being sent out at this point in April when last year it was all WL/R...

 

[avoidingpurgatory]

I don’t drink but jfc I actually might try something today (send me your best recommendations bc I dislike the taste of alcohol)

No don't give into your demons (corona sunbrew- tastes like a slightly beer flavored orange seltzer)

 

[hopefuldoc1122]

Do we still think we’ll see waitlist movement starting shortly after 4/30?

 

[Shen_qingqiu]

Probably- some number of people will definitely be giving up their A's, but no idea if it will be the same 75/150 like was reported on the MSAR waitlist procedures

 

[pedneuro6894]

I withdrew my A today, hope it goes to @vinnied86

While I hope you get an A too, @vinnied86 was at my wedding so he gets first dibs

 

[aamc123]

If anyone has taken the time to study previous threads… is there any hope for early interviewees at this point?

im pretty sure they don’t review based on date of interview. So honestly its just a crapshoot for all of us atp

 

[phantomprince206]
